Victorinox Scissor Spring Multi-Tool, Medium

Wow, a simple (but often required) fix for my now-discontinued "Executive" model Swiss Army Knife! Love this model -- no big corkscrew to get in the way, but all the necessities- scissors, two blades, toothpick, tweezers, file...and an orange peeler that functions well as a small-screw screwdriver. Use the scissors almost every day, and glad to have replacement springs that fit it!

This perfectly replaced the broken spring on my Victorinox tool.

OK, there are a few stumbling blocks here. First, the Amazon listing seems to imply that if your knife is bigger than 3 inch blade length, then you need the large size spring. Not necessarily true — I have an Explorer which has a 3.6 inch blade and it is listed as a "Medium" sized knife on Victorinox's website. So I went with 'medium'. That turned out to be correct.Second, there are a lot of "recommended'' methods of installing the spring once you get it. I would recommend going onto Youtube and watching the "Official" spring installation where they use a specific Victorinox Spring installation kit to install it. That will give you a general idea of how to do it. But you don't need no stinkin' installation kit.Here's how I did it:1) remove broken spring2) place the knife gently in a vise with the scissors opened at 90 degrees to the body with the scissor resting across the top of the vise3) In the Victorinox kit video, the guy seems to use an awl or something to make the opening slightly wider. I just used an old phillips head screwdriver and gave it a good hard twist. Several commenters here say one side is bigger but doesn't appear so on my knife. And don't waste your time trying to do this with pliers, it's not likely to work4) get a wood screw that has a tip small enough to fit into the opening of the spring. Place the tip of the screw in the spring opening and center the spring over the hole and line up the straight part of the spring to fit into the groove near the round hole. Then just give it a solid tap with a hammer. It goes right in, lickety split.You can thank me later.

Perfect fit for my swiss card scissor, swiss quality, took a while to find, hope this help others, cheers

Great service, fast delivery. I have Victorinox Fisherman. The spring on the scissors finally broke. I wasn’t sure about the size n ordered the medium size. Should have gotten the large size but it still works the medium size.

Exactly what I needed to repair the scissors on my knife. It's a tight fit, but I think that's how it's designed. There are a few YT videos out there with different ways to do the install, so you should be able to find one that helps.

Works for the pliers on Swiss Army knives but doesn’t work for the scissors. You can press it into the hole but it won’t stay aligned when you depress the scissors or close them. I tried the large size, then this medium size and now I believe I need the small size

Fits my Victorinox swisschamp. Use pliers to squeeze the spring into the base of the scissors.
