Victorinox Electrician Swiss Army Knife, 8 Function Swiss Made Pocket Knife with Electricians Blade and Wire Scraper - Silver

Blade a little thicker.Spike is sturdy and useful.Small knife is a really nice shape and design for opening boxes, stripping wire, etc etcQuite like the metal handle. Stops the kids from nicking it as theirs are traditional Red.Edit. The small stubby blade is SO much more useful than the traditional small blade on the Swiss army knife a of old. This sturdy and safe blade is a good alternative to a Stanley knife in many situations and can be a little more "chissel" like than the longer blade.I'm really chuffed with this style of knife and would recommend it over the sizzored red models.This feels stronger, thicker bladed, yet slimmer for the pocket. Damn good.

Bought for my brother in law who is a farmer.I didnt want to let it go. I’ve got the soldier, cadet, farmer, huntsman and climber. The electrician is so good. The weight of the knife is good and I think better than the rest. The big blade is thicker than the 91mm red knives and the whole device is just so nice to hold. Brother in law carries it every day and works with it. His opinion is it’s a superb knife and the small blade is brilliant. So good I bought a second for me.

The Alox range of Swiss Army knives are much tougher than the standard red handled range with the plastic scales. The aluminium Alox scales make for a much stiffer chassis and the individual blades and tools are made from a much thicker metal. This gives the Alox range a feeling of quality and reliability.On the Electrician model the electrician blade will come in handy for when the wire strippers have been left at the bottom of the ladder or back in the van and the screw driver cap lifter is perfect for quickly removing face plates and moderate prying tasks. The large blade always comes in handy even if it’s only to remove packaging and the awl is perfect for adding an extra hole in the tool belt after Christmas when a little more slack is required to accommodate an expanding waistline.

This is a great wee knife.It's a lot smaller than I expected it to be, but in a good way. As I said in the title, you won't notice this in your pocket. It's small and light, but the blades are of an amazing quality. Thick, and sharp. I've already had a mishap with it due to carelessness, and all that did was convince me of the quality of the knife.It's well constructed, well engineered, and well presented. If you want a wee pocketknife for day to day carrying, you won't go far wrong with this one.

A little bit heavier than similar products with celluloid scales but this make it firm and solid in use.Both blades are very sharp indeed.The small combo tools is as expected fro other such Victorinox products. Not used the reamer, yet.It feels well put together, no slack pivots or rocking in the tools. The springs are good and strong.The chequered patterned scales are nice to hold, no slipping.All told, a well designed and produced tool with features an electrician or similar profession would find handy.
