I see this offered when i look on Amazon for price drops on Victorinox knives i consider adding to my arsenal. At that low low price it can’t be made in Switzerland? Any one ever buy one just to check it out? Hard to find any info or history on the company? Your thoughts?
 
If that was a legitimate victorinox product that would gone like a new wind, I suspect clone. As stated above, looknat the tools, the corkscrew for example--- they look awful, "compass blade?" I'm sure there is supposed to be a comma between the two but at that point... might as well be a "compass blade"
 
Don’t get me wrong, when i see anything that “copies” something at a 3rd the price i know it’s as you say a Chinese clone. Some of the reviews were good but i presume those had never owned or handled or used a real Victorinox or Wenger SAK.
A few of the reviews mentioned workmanship, lack of quality and stiff operating of the tools. I think those are the ones who own or have owned the best.
 
That appears to be a poor quality clone of a standard SAK. I'd avoid it.

Additionally, some of those tools look to be direct copies of Victorinox tools. 😒
 
Thanks guys and yes don’t plan on buying any.
I did once a long time ago buy a Ozark Trails SAK at wally’s just for grins. I saw it in a drawer some where but yea just another experience to chalk up.
Actually not a SAK but more appropriately a CAK?
 
Yes i know the US site. I also check Amazon, Walmart and a popular Swiss knife site. I mainly compare prices and look to save on free shipping and what not. Mainly just checking trending prices and who has a model I’m considering with the best deal.
