exclusive
Swiss
Army

Great, simple knife
Great
knife
with everything you need and nothing you don't. As other reviewers said, it is on the heavy side, but is well balanced, and fits my
hand
well. The
black
blade
looks great, a nice touch.
Amazon's description seems to lack a list of all the implements, so here they are:
-
One
handed locking serrated blade.
- Can opener + small screwdriver that can also be used for Phillips screw heads
- Bottle opener + larger flathead screwdriver + wire stripper
- Belt cutter (a serrated blade with a rounded tip)
- Wood saw
- Reamer
- Corkscrew
- Toothpick and tweezers on alternate sides of the handle
- Keyring
The reamer, the only implement on the back of the knife besides the corkscrew, is pretty hard to get open without breaking your fingernails. All other implements open relatively easily.

Another fine Swiss knife
I purchased this
knife
and a Climber knife to replace the two
Swiss
knives taken from me at airports when I forgot to put them in my checked luggage. I decided to buy this
one
because it was the only one
hand
opening lock
blade
model with a corkscrew and because of the non-locking seat belt cutter blade which I've not see/used before. I'm no
fireman
and the odds of needing to cut a seat belt is exceedingly rare, but it looks to be a great blade to cut ropes (climbing or otherwise) and it has extra large serrations on the blade. I've owned both the Nomad and one handed Trekker and loved the Trekker for the ease of opening lock blade and the serrated blade but it lacks a corkscrew. The Nomad has the corkscrew but not the one hand opening or 1/2 serrated edge. So that's why I bought the Fireman, it does have the corkscrew and the serrated one hand opening blade. So, if you if you can live without both of these features in one knife, I'd recommend one or the other knives as they are lighter and cheaper. But nonetheless, you cannot go wrong with any of the SA knives.
If it didn't have the belt cutter, that would have been fine, besides, seems to me that the time saved opening with one hand would be more valuable than the deeper serrations and curved blade of the belt cutter. This knife is quite a bit heavier than the Nomad or Trekker but again is the only one hand opening knife with a corkscrew.
Great quality and price from Amazon of course.

Collector's knife
The
black
main
blade
is very interesting for collectors because it scratches too easily. I have it in my collection but I don't like it for 'real use'.
One
of the few Victorinox misses!
