Swiss Army Soldier Knife
The
Swiss Army Soldier knife as picture above was standard issue to Swiss
Troops until 2008, when the New Soldier model was introduced.
I wore one out while I was deployed on a Destroyer in the U S Navy back
in the 1980's, and bought a replacement as soon as we pulled into port.
The only part that actually wore out was the protrusion with the hole where the key ring was threaded.
(It was a red Victorinox version of the knife pictured above.)
Since I couldn't carry it on my key ring for instant accessibility the
way I preferred, I gave it to a shipmate when I got the replacement.
It has a 2 3/4 " blade, screwdriver/cap lifter, small screwdriver/can opener, reamer/awl/scraper, and it comes with a key ring.
If you prefer a simpler type of knife like this, the Swiss Army Soldier
Knife is unbeatable in my opinion, and I still have the replacement I
got years ago.
Check one out the next time you're in your favorite knife shop.
You'll be impressed.
