Victorinox Spartan Swiss Army Knife - 12 Function Multi Tool Pocket Knife

There are literally hundreds of Swiss army type knives available with a wide range of functions from one or two blades to a virtual mini tool kit!! This pocket knife suits my day to day needs (mostly used when camping and in the garage). The build feels great quality and I think that this is a great value item and a reliable pocket tool. Obviously the blades are pretty sharp so don't purchase for minors !!

Victorinox is a well-known trustworthy brand so I didn’t hesitate to buy the Spartan Swiss Army Knife as a gift for my husband. The quality is exactly what you’d expect, excellent and reliable, with nothing to complain about. The only downside was that the packaging arrived damaged which was a bit disappointing since it was meant as a gift. Still the knife itself is perfect!

I have owned a Swiss Army knife since I was eighteen, now more than forty year ago; not the same knife I'm sorry to say and that's not because the first one broke but because I lost it. But far more than just a knife these are sturdy and reliable tools for all sorts of everyday jobs from tightening a screw to opening a wine bottle; and that's why we always buy one for our nieces, nephews, god-children and friends' children for their eighteenth birthday, and yes that does include the girls and no nobody's been disappointed yet [or they may have been too polite to say!]. There have always been a range of Swiss Army knives but the Spartan is the one we tend to buy, not just because the toolset is more "everyday" useful than some of the other knives, nor just because it's excellent value, but being relatively small it won't tear your pocket. However do remember not to inadvertently leave it in a trouser pocket when you try to board a plane or you too might loose yours.

Love this knife, I really wish they made all models in the black scales as I think they look so much better, this is a great little tool, only thing it lacks is the scissors, all Sak models in this size will lack one of the tools you would like them to have but that’s a sales trick so you buy more of the models, this model is lightweight ( you wouldn’t know it’s in your pocket) and has a great combination of tools, the two blades is a great combo as you can use one as a daily and keep the other razor sharp for when you need it, I have also purchased the glasses screwdriver to fit in the corkscrew and the pin that slots in the scale under the Philips ( have a look if you didn’t know the hole is there on all models ). In the black scales this model looks the nuts, is it possible for a knife to look sexy? 😂

Bought for Granddaughter going to Uni in September. Very useful and value for money.

Bought this Spartan to replace an old or well-used SD Knife I’ve had for years. There’s a bewildering range of Swiss Army Knives produced and to choose from (and some are ridiculously over-spec’d and expensive in my opinion), however, if like me you just want a practical, everyday pocket knife to have in a pocket in the event that it might prove useful at times, the compact Spartan model will probably suit your needs. It comes without the small scissors found in the similar ‘Huntsman’ model (which can be useful when a blade won’t suffice), but the Spartan is a slightly slimmer, more compact pocket knife in comparison. The Black version of the knife is not a colour I would perhaps have immediately chosen, however, the knife looks pretty neat in black, and less juvenile than some of the other options. Some of the knife’s blades and so on, seem quite stiff to open, but hopefully they will (probably) loosen up after a little bit of use.

Nice little pocket knife you can’t go wrong with Swiss made knives

I'm a great fan of the Victorinox Swiss Army Knife and am never without one. I have several as well as some limited edition ones in my collection. This particular one (Spartan) which I picked up for £12 on Amazon is one of the oldest and popular models they do. Having the two layer construction makes it fairly lightweight while still having a useful array of features. I own a Swiss Champ which has everything you could ever need but is heavy for carrying in a pocket on a daily basis. I mostly carry the Huntsman (because it has scissors) or this model. It's worth mentioning that all NEW Victorinox SAKs have the hole in the scales to conceal a stainless steel pin and the mini screwdriver can be added easily to any knife with a corkscrew (see image). They don't come with this model as standard. Victorinox just released alternative versions including a SIM removal tool and crosshead mini screwdriver. I wear glasses so it's handy for me to add the screwdriver to an knife. In order to remain legal for UK carry the Swiss Army Spartan etc have non locking knife blades so require care when in use. They can shut on your fingers if not properly used. For heavier use or camping I'd recommend a larger locking blade model like the RangerGrip, or similar, which has a large locking blade and rubber inlaid scales for non slip use. You can't carry one of these on the street in the UK. Going back to the Spartan, it's ideal for opening Amazon packages, tightening the odd screw and you can open wine. What more could you ask for! If looked after a Swiss Army Knife (stainless steel construction) will last a lifetime. Not bad for the bargain price of £12.

Meu irmão disse pra comprar um canivete para uma viagem que iria fazer(não entendi o motivo até agora), na viagem que fiz não precisei. Agora faço tudo com ele, até quando não preciso. A qualidade do canivete é excelente.

Un nome una garanzia! Praticamente tutti gli attrezzi indispensabili per lavorare, o semplicemente passare del tempo nella natura, nella tua tasca. Pratico compatto utile e super resistente.

Som vanligt med denna tillverkaren så är kniven av god kvalitet, inget att anmärka på. Bär denna på mig varje dag som en del av min EDC.
