Gift giving can take many forms over the holiday season, but we’re always fond of things that serve a practical purpose. Turning once again to Victorinox, the maker of the Original Swiss Army KnifeTM, a healthy assortment of knives and tools are on offer that will keep your loved ones prepared for any task — expected or otherwise — that might come their way. No matter whether you’re shopping for an avid outdoorsman, survivalist, or home tinkerer, the Victorinox catalogue has something on offer to suit even those one would class as “hard to shop for”. What’s more, each product is built with reliability and longevity in mind, so you can trust that these tools will last their new owners a lifetime.
Victorinox Huntsman

A tried-and-true classic of the Victorinox catalog, the Huntsman is the classic daily-carry Swiss Army KnifeTM that covers all the bases. At 3.58 inches long it’s compact enough to slip into your pocket without burning excess real estate, and between its two blades, saw, scissors, bottle opener, tweezers, and other practical tools (15 in total), it will come in handy just as often around the house as it will out on the trail.
Victorinox Rescue Tool

The Victorinox Rescue Tool makes a great gift for anyone who is on the road frequently, or perhaps even the new driver in the family that you want to ensure is prepared for any unforeseen eventuality. Its bright yellow scales are easy to see in low light, and its combination of tools will give them all they need, should they come across a roadside emergency. The tool was developed with the help of dedicated fire and rescue workers, and is backed by a lifetime warranty.
Victorinox Swiss Tool Spirit X

This remarkable multi-tool boasts an impressive array of 24 tools in a heavy-duty package. Alongside the expected needle-nose pliers and screwdrivers, the Swiss Tool Spirit X also includes more surprising functions including a metal saw, a chisel, and even specialized cable cover cutters. It’s the ultimate handyman’s pocket carry of choice, and comes with a high-quality leather pouch.
Victorinox Swiss Champ
Learn More
Where the Huntsman covers off the essential tools (and a few more), the Victorinox Swiss Champ is just that — the hero knife that’s loaded with 33 different tools, for those who want to ensure that every base is covered. On top of the expected (blades, scissors, screwdrivers, etc), the Champ brings a magnifying glass, combination pliers, a fish scaler, and even a ballpoint pen to the table.
Victorinox Venture Pro
Learn More
Rounding out the list, we turn back to the catalogue to find a suitable selection for the avid outdoorsman in the family. The Venture Pro is a full-tang fixed blade knife with a few extra tricks up its sleeve. Its ingenious carry system provides multiple options for fitting the knife to belt, boot, or pack, whereas its integrated bow drill divot transforms the knife into a reliable fire-starting tool. Victorinox opted for a versatile flat-grind geometry for its blade, which works just as well for precision carving as it does for heavy-duty bushcraft tasks.
