Does the Victorinox Swiss Tool X with Pouch Really Work?

Rate this post

We always like to keep our survivor buffs in mind when looking for products to discuss. So when we came across the Victorinox Swiss Tool X with Pouch we thought it may be of something of interest. There is always the concept that you are getting more than what you pay for with a multi purpose product but that is not always the case.

Overview
The Victorinox Swiss Tool X with Pouch is another great multi tool from the makers of the original Swiss Army Knife. Swiss Army Knives have created a religious following around the globe for their attention to detail and the quality of their equipment.

The Claim
The claim is that this updated version of the Victorinox Swiss Tool X with Pouch has just about every tool that one would need in a pinch or when in the bush or just need to carry something small and not a whole bag or box of tools.

The Hype
The hype is clearly in the name of this product. As stated above the name Victorinox is familiar to anyone who has ever bought a true, authentic Swiss Army Knife. The name implies a certain quality that many other multi-tool and knife makers would like to have but fail to adhere to the demands of quality that Victorinox is known for.

The Cost
The cost of the Victorinox Swiss Tool with Pouch is $84.99 on amazon.com. Check your local Victorinox retailer and you may find a slightly better price

but that would seem to be in the right range for a tool of this quality. Yes, you can find other makes for much, much less but they will certainly not have the same amount of thought and quality built in as a true Victorinox tool will certainly have.

The Commitment
The true beauty of a good multi is that they actually reduce commitment as they take the place of so many other tools when heading out of doors. No need for several different screwdrivers, or can opener, or pocketknife and the Victorinox Swiss Tool X with Pouch has them all and then some. When not in use the convenient pouch stores the tool safely for the next adventure.

Evaluation
The tools included in the Victorinox Swiss Tool with Pouch are as follows: small pliers, 2, 3, 5 and 7.5mm flat head screw drivers, wire cutter, bottle opener, large metal saw, wood saw, reamer, Phillips screw driver, chisel, crate opener, wire bender, stripper and scraper, can opener, crimper, metal file, scissors and a lanyard holder and encompassed in the handle a 230mm ruler. The unit is made from the finest stainless steel materials and comes in a keepsake tin with a silver lid. The unit also had a durable nylon pouch that attaches easily to the belt when needed. 4.5 inches long and weighing in at a mere 10 ounces this baby is easy to use and a snap to carry.

Final Victorinox Swiss Tool X with Pouch Review

As with every other Victorinox product this

one is a true keeper. If you don’t already own one, do yourself or a good friend or close relative a favour and get them or yourself one. You will most likely never need another multi tool in your life, unless you lose it! Great value for the money and a truly versatile accessory. You will not be sorry if you purchase this product.

Our Recommendation
Based on the stellar reputation of the maker and the versatility of the unit we would recommend this to anyone who needs a true multi tool that will last a lifetime. Another multi tool that some find most inviting is the Multi Wrench.
