Pocket Knives Knife
The Well Known Swiss Army Knife Is Known For Its Amazing Versatility
The Swiss army knife has its origins as far back as 1891 when Karl Elsener, who was the owner of a company making surgical implements discovered to his dismay that the pocket knives that were issued to the Swiss army were, in fact, made in Germany. Elsener decided that these knives should be made in Switzerland by the Swiss. He obtained the contract and started producing the current Modell 1890 knives towards the close of 1891. It was not too long before people discovered the versatility of a Swiss army knife.
The year that any particular model of knife had been introduced onto the market can be determined from the Modell (the German Spelling) number. The first knife, Modell 1890, had been given to Swiss soldiers so that they could open cans and disassemble and assemble their army issue rifles. This particular knife consisted of a knife blade, screwdriver, can-opener and a reamer. Its grips were made from dark oak which was later replaced by ebony.
The knives were available to US servicemen from their PX stores following World War II, but having problems saying Schweizer Offiziersmesser, the official name for the knives, the men called them Swiss Army Knives, a name that has stuck to this day. This name has now been officially registered as a trademark by the Victorinox company and all subsidiaries producing this type of knife.
The red hand grips with the white cross emblazoned on it, the multiple blades and flip out tools make the Swiss Army Knife the most recognized compact tool kit in the world and it is revered by fishermen, campers, hunters and by anyone who can appreciate this small, portable, quality tool kit capable of performing so many tasks. Enthusiasts can choose from a vast range of models designed to accomplish an equally large range of jobs. There are so many designs to choose from that range between the simple model that has a single blade, a reamer, a screwdriver and a combination of bottle opener and can opener, up to the huge Giant, spanning nine inches across and armed with a total of 87 tools capable of accomplishing 141 separate functions. Furthermore red is not the only color. Increasingly you find people who opt for the black Swiss army knives.
The knives are produced by Victorinox and its subsidiary, Wenger, and one of their most popular knives is the Classic Knife measuring just three inches long and offering great strength without the bulk. This knife sports a keyring, enabling it to be carried on a key chain for convenience. Among the range of tools available on this small wonder, are small blades, a toothpick, tweezers, nail files, scissors, various screwdriver heads and a host of other tools that may never be needed but that are there if they are needed.
The latest design for the modern age is the Presentation Master, a tool that includes a laser pointer, fingerprint scanner with memory stick and on board data encryption. All of the knifes attachments can be retracted into the knife, using springs, when they are not required. Being lightweight and having no blades, it is permitted to carry this device aboard aircraft.
Extending the range, knives such as the Champion Plus are fitted with such tools as a small saw with serrated blade, fish scaler, hook remover, punch tool, reamer and many more. A waterproof pouch is available as well as a leather belt pouch enabling the knife to be carried on the person. Other models include the Climber Swiss army knife and the Spartan.
Sharpening of any knife may be accomplished by using steel or whetstone, but Victorinox do advise the use of steel and actually supply a knife sharpener to accomplish this. There can be no denying the versatility of a Swiss army knife.
