Victorinox Swiss Army Soldier Knife August 31, 2010 M The Victorinox Swiss Army Soldier Knife vended by Beach Camara is exact product. Dull green with black border color scheme demonstrates inherent functionality--no flash and snuff here. The most useful items only are included here, with design to complement their intended function. Flat head screwdriver (tip of bottle opener) and large knife have locks for the open position, so no accidental closures or frustrating attempts to remove a tight screw. In my personal feeling, screwdriver feels much more sturdy than my older knife. The phillips screwdriver and leather hole puncher are easy to use becasue of easy grip handle and heftier, longer knife handle. Additional tools include a wood saw and can opener with smaller head flat screwdriver. The large knife is serated for the first 2/3rds of the knife. It has a hoop at the bottom and rear of the shaft. You can loop something through it for carrying purposes or use it to open one handed. It is also the sole means of opening the large knife (no nail-notch).
Like new bigger locking blade, but Quality is Inconsistent June 1, 2010 Scout Leader (Colorado) I bought two of these for my Cub Scout sons. I promised one of my sons a knife to replace a cheap, dangerous one I took from him after he got cut.
I've had several Swiss Army Knives over the years that have been very well built and reliable. I bought these for the locking blade, simple design and reputation.
The only issue I've had is with the main blade opening tension. One of the new knives opens consistently very smoothly with very little change in tension or force required over the span of opening it. What you'd expect for one handed operation as advertised.
The second knife reaches about 95 degrees opening and requires significantly greater force to continue opening. It's not like you've got to grab it with pliers and yank, but it is significant enough that it's difficult for an adult with single hand operation. My 2nd son cut himself due to this quality issue, so now I'm holding this knife until the manufacturer responds.
Good luck with yours!
Very good knife May 8, 2010 Adam Bricker The new Victorinox soldier is an excellent product. It gets a 4 instead of a 5 because it essentially comes in only a left-handed version. It opens just as effectively right or left, as the blade is situated on center, but it is more difficult to close it one handed with your right hand, due to the design of the liner lock. Also, while the liner locks are a fine improvement over the previous soldier, the blade does wiggle a bit. This does not seem to hinder its effectiveness, but seems like something Victorinox could improve upon. One other item to note, if you are purchasing this as a replacement to one of the older soldiers or a similar product, this knife is substantially larger both folded and open. I would not consider this a negative or a design flaw, but it might be a bit large for some pockets. This knife is an excellent balance of tools. I particularly appreciate the addition of the wood saw to the soldier. The liner lock on the large flathead screwdriver makes it exceptionally useful both as a screwdriver and pry bar. Overall, I would highly recommend this product.
not disappointed :) March 31, 2010 A. Joseph (Cleveland) Well, I was quite pleased with the knife. I purchased it for its collectible value (do not intend on using it). Always liked Victorinox swiss army knives. I have had a few and really do rough them up, they take quite a beating and still perform flawlessly. Prefer the finish and overall functionality over Wenger's. Wanted to own an actual swiss soldier's swiss army knife.... don't know what else to say... I highly recommend it?...thanks...
Solid wilderness fiolding knife. March 23, 2010 M. Clayson Great knife, great price. I'm not happy with the serrations, they seem sloppy. Saw works great, as do the other tools.
