    I spent 21 years in the army and always carried a Victranox Swiss Army knife in the field with me. Including Desert Storm. Even after newer multi tools like the Leatherman came out. Which I also have. I still prefer my Swiss Army Knife. I have had several different models of them. But I prefer the ones that don’t have all the gadgets on them. As a minimum I have the two blades bottle can openers wood saw. Scissors and the Phillips screwdriver if I have a few more cool. But that wood saw is a must. You can build a shelter with it.

    Good video 😎. Victorinox are the best and still made in Switzerland (Ibach SZ). This company exists for more than 100 years. If you come to visit Switzerland, please go to see the shop. You can give knifes to your friends.. These knifes last for decades.. I have a knife of 1985. That was our original knife in the military service (alox model). Looks like the Pioneer model, but it is a little bit better.. It still works..

    I've used the corkscrew to punch a new hole in my belt when it stretches too much and gets loose. The corkscrew helps to break through and make the initial hole. You can then put it through a few times to widen it. Then use the smaller blade to really round it out and open it up.

    Using the plastic cordage and then heating it to shrink and tighten is like the natives do with rawhide (wetting it, wrapping it, and letting it dry and shrink) I never thought of that aspect of it! I recall once Tonto was wrongly jailed and he wrapped wet rawhide from his clothing around the window bars, as the rawhide dried it bent the bars enough to let him escape! Go Tonto!

    Carried one as a marine & midshipman. Gave them out to the marines & lone sailor in my wedding party. Whether trimming Irish pennants or nose hair or fingernails, scissors are handy. I’ve trimmed a Xmas tree with the saw. Cut all kinds of things with main or aux blades. There’s a handy model for almost everybody. A kbar on belt & SAK in your pocket is hard to beat.

    I'm just a general dad these days outside of my job. On any day off I carry one. Yesterday I used it in the street to quickly put a bike bell that arrived from Amazon on my daughter's bike in the street rather than digging out a screwdriver. The day before go adjust a valve to the toilet. Last weekend it was to cut a stick to size for my daughter to make a sword during a walk. They're so handy. With it being on your person, you find yourself doing small jobs that you otherwise wouldn't get round to doing.
