Production of the Victorinox Swiss Army Knife | Victorinox

Ғылым және технология

The world of Victorinox dates all the way back to the year 1884. Right here, in the heart of
Switzerland, in Ibach-Schwyz where we have been based ever since. Join the digital tour through the world-famous Swiss Army Knife factory where all knives and tools are made of stainless steel.
The knife started back in 1884 in the small village of Ibach where it can still be found today. In 1891 Karl Elsener I establishes the Association of Swiss Master Cutlers. As a result, he is able to deliver the first major supply of soldier’s knives to the Swiss Army.
Innovation has always been the driving force behind our production techniques. The knife blades are stamped from a 3mm steel strip. 60 tons of stamping pressure, 14.000 blades per role, 20 hydraulic presses produce each individual blade.
Since the Victorinox product portfolio has developed greatly and today includes pocket knives, travel gear, cutlery, watches and perfume. Every single product is characterized by the functionality and spirit of innovation of the little red pocket knife.

    God bless these guys. They sharpened and brought back to life my near 30 year old Climber. The British distributor had to send it to Ibach and they did not charge me anything (even though I offered). They even sent me a letter of apology and a complimentary Classic SD for returning it a bit late. Most companies would just say chuck it out and buy another one (I do in fact have several).You don’t realise how useful these are until you have one. Plus this is an ethical company that values their staff. They furloughed or lent staff to other companies when 9/11 massively hit their sales (no more duty free). They did not lay off a single person. What is not to love? I wish companies here valued their staff like this.

    How many mass produced items in the world today can claim to have this iconic quality? I have owned countless versions over the last forty years or so. I have a favourite and thats every single one ! Sadly i dont still have my first one that started my journey into this legend . And regrettably that model is not available anymore. But it all started for me when i saw an astronaut with one, So i had to get that knife he was using ? That knife was the Master craftsman ! What a knife ! What a name .

    Hi Victorinox, today I wanted to share my happiness with you because I have got my Victorinox Swiss Champ after waiting for 12 years for it. After getting my hands on it I can say that waiting for it for over a decade is definitely worth it. I am absolutely in Love with my Swiss Champ. The quality is great as always with Victorinox. I bought in Red Color because Red Color is not just a color but an emotion for Victorinox Fans. Thank you for making this great piece of art which really comes handy in many scenarios. God Bless You.

    Since a young kid I've loved these knives, my eyes would light up in the newsagents when I used to look at them under the glass counter. They were so pretty with the white lights shining on them. Eventually my mother gave in and bought me one when I was 11. I'm 43 years old and I still have that victorinox hiker, I've lost it several times but it always turned up again, I sent it back to victorinox for a refurb and it came back like new and only cost the postage to send it over. What can I say but your one of a kind, if every company ran like this the world would be a great place. I have collected many victorinox models knives since then and I continue to do so.. my plan is to install my own glass cabinet to display them in, that will bring me back to my childhood again!
