I don’t like to stress the springs opening all tools at once
Blends wonderfully in nature, doesn’t it? :D
The Huntsman sports the classic “Swiss Army Knife” design and classy look! the main difference is that it’s a 4 layer model with coloured scales.
The blade is the standard lengh with standard thickness for cellidor handled ones
Bottle opener – flat screwdriver – wire stripper
standard non locking size
Can Opener – small flathead screwdriver
standard non locking size
The BEST Scissors on the market! Period.
the position enables a good grip and gives out good control and torque.
Woodsaw! insane cutting ability and long lasting sharpness, it cuts in both ways too
standard 91mm non locking size
small blade, for finer or cleaner tasks
corkscrew, never stay…dry again!
the small extra eyeglass-size screwdriver is not included but can be bought as an optional, it sports (usually) an eyeglass like sized screwdriver.
Firesteel and tinder or oder options are available on the secondary custom market
the multi-hook is the strangest tool Victorinox offers, they call it the “multihook”, i’ve only used it to tie strings and to carry plastic bags, without cutting your fingers.
The punch/awl is a multitool that can be used to punch holes in leather, wood, plastic, cardboard, belts and to sew through them easily.
the lanyard/split-ring is the most fun tool offered, as it doubles as an embellishment option as a safety not to loose the knife, lanyards can be fun but are also useful not to loose your precious companion.
tick and tewwzers (best ever)
the tick is good for, well, many things
the tweezers are mostly used for splinters
this little hole in the scale is used to store (not included…unfortunately!!!) a useful “pin” or nail like pin

Last Words and Conclusions:
What I like:
- GREAT Price and quality
- Swiss Made…since the beginning
- Good Steel, stupid easy to sharpen and good enough for most people
- arrives sharp and well sharpened
What I DON’T like:
- missing pin and mini screwdriver as an accessory
- nothing else in particular
Other considerations:
- given the outdoor backing idea a sheath would be a nice option to have
Notes:
the knife was bought with my own money, i was not paid for the review
