Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The explorer has all the most universally-useful tools topped with a rarely-found inline phillips screwdriver. The explorer becomes complete if you buy for it a precision screwdriver to be stored inside the corkscrew.

Victorinox explorer knife is of impeccable quality. Comes with a set of large scissors and a scissor. Easy to sharpen and the blade keeps an edge.

The magnifying glass is what make this sak a standout. It's got a good magnification for daily use, and can be used to start a fire in an emergency. The magnifier is way more useful then you'd think.



Cons

The redesigned magnifing lens is garbage. The lens of the magnifying glass missing after light use. Very lightly used and lens is lost and gone.

It’s comfortable in my hand and the price was perfect

Shipping


But its a terrible gift because the seller just dropped it into a shipping envelope and the box is flimsy inside

Packaging/appearance


Knife has multiple functions and is really sharp right out of the box


I really wanted to have the magnifying glass

Competitiveness


Bought as a bday gift for my son


I have had other multitools and knives but keep these two handy
