My favorite victorinox has to be my cadet in black alox scales because its just a perfect edc knife for me it has only the tools I need and is nice and simple. Also the alox scales are thinner then the typical plastic victorinox scales and it disappears in my pocket. Even if I don't carry it as a main blade I always hook it to my keys. I plan on getting a silver cadet but until then my black cadet will serve me just fine. So what's your favorite victorinox?
 
Alox Bantam! Minimalist. No wasted thickness, no wasted space, and yet a huge amount of utility.

Huntsman. Not my favorite to EDC because of the size, but my favorite because it's the perfect backpacking knife for me. I have found a use for every single tool on it, even on through hikes (ran into some guys trying to open a bottle of wine in the wilderness with no corkscrew once). That little guy has seen about 1000 trail miles and is still going strong. For EDC I like the Spartan, but I don't own a Cadet (yet).
 
+1 for the Alox Bantam. I have one I carry in my bag and a backup, NIB, waiting for when I lose or use it up.
 
I have the champ . Climber . Explorer . Camper . Spartan . Picknicker and soldier . And i use them all . I really could't pick one . I love them all the same lol
 
My favourite is the Electrician. Alox handles, no protruding split ring, sheepfoot blade and that awesome awl. It feels a lot like a traditional slipjoint.

However, it's not the one I use the most. The Huntsman and similar models just have more tools I find useful in my daily routine.
 
My favorite Victorinox is a toss up between the Pocket Pal and the Super Tinker. But I have absolutely no idea why since the one that gets carried the most is the Fieldmaster.
 
Victorinox Escort. The size of a key, with all the tools required for honest EDC (and by honest, I mean how many tools do you really need/use on a daily basis?).

Swiss Army Tinker in black. I like that it doesn't have scissors and they swapped the cork screw for an awl. It comes with a knife so I don't really need to use scissors for anything. The awl is awesome for making new holes in leather belts and other such puncturing. This knife was my EDC prior to getting a mini Recon Spear point, and I still find myself going back to the tinker. Also for the right website you can get them for around $17.
