Victorinox Deluxe Tinker Swiss Army Pocket Knife, Medium, Multi Tool, 17 Functions, Screwdriver, Scissors

The red rounded end scales of this Victorinox Tinker Delux makes the perfect pocket / EDC carry. No hard angular edges, always smooth to the touch and a joy to use and depend on every time. Handy tweezers clip into the end of the 'Tinker. Turn the multitool around and there's the toothpick for those awkward moments. The 7cm blade is 'friendly carry', very sharp and perfectly proportioned for most cutting requirements. Any of the Tinker's blades sharpen well using Lanksey's inexpensive pocket diamond sharpening tool.The Phillips screwdriver is exactly how a Phillips should be. It is neither too big or too small. Its sprung pliers are good for exacting difficult things, even an angler would be pleased using it to extract a hook from a fish's mouth. The multi-functional hook is perfect to carry heavy supermarket carrier bags that would otherwise hurt one's fingers.Altogether, the various knives and tools included in the Deluxe Tinker knife came oiled, sharpened, and cleaned. At the Victorinox factory every single multitool is carefully inspected. The knife was very clean when it arrived, and everything functioned perfectly. The snips are good for cutting wire, and the bottle opener ends are good as flat bladed screwdriver ends. The can opener works every time. No bottle caps remain - off the come with no hassle! Oh how I LOVE this Swiss Army Knife!This is a really good looking, dependable piece of kit to carry around in your pocket or EDC bag. Or handbag, even. It has all the standard tools, plus the scissors, pliers, and a Philips screwdriver instead of the usual corkscrew.Overall, a fantastic piece of gear and a beautiful compliment of tools for almost any day to day tasks. I could not recommend this product anymore than I already do and truthfully, if it says Victorinox on it, you cannot go wrong.Finally, don't buy those cheap crappity knockoffs. Made of inferior steel, often coated in titanium to give the impression of hardness, these tools never last and in the long run are a terrible waste of money and they'll head for the bin. Quality is everything. You do indeed get what you paid for in this Victorinox Tinker Delux will promise long years of dependable service. What a joy to have bought it! It's my second Swiss Army Knife. It's an indulgent self-present because I'm worth it and you should buy it also, because you're worth it, too!Thoroughly and most enthusiastically - recommended!Thank you for reading.

This Swiss Army Knife (SAK) does not have locking blades, and the blades are under the UK maximum permitted size, making it 'UK Friendly'.I bought it because a friend pointed out that old multi-tool I've had on my belt for years is NOT UK friendly, and I could end up in trouble simply for having it on my belt in a public place. In the UK you are not permitted to carry anything with locking blades or blades over 3" in public. This includes multi-tools, which is something I didn't know until recently.The Deluxe Tinker has four layers (one is a bit fatter than the others to accommodate the pliers), so it fits in the smaller 2-4 layer belt pouches.As a multi-tool, this is probably the most versatile and practical of any SAK. Yes, you can get the insane Giant and Swiss Champ tools, but they are almost a marketing exercise to show just how many functions you can fit in one tool. If you actually intend to use the thing, it needs to be a bit more practical.Having looked at lots of options, I felt that the combination of scissors, pliers, three screwdrivers, two modest blades, bottle and can openers, hook and a couple of other bits and bobs would suit me perfectly. I've had it for a couple of months now, and I definitely made the right choice. I can't say I've needed a corkscrew, which was displaced in favour of a full-sized Philips screwdriver on this tool.That was a good call, as the central location of the screwdriver allows a really good grip to remove stuck screws. If you really want a corkscrew, the Handyman has a similar feature set and adds a saw, file and corkscrew. Cool, but in all honesty, not features I really need.I'd actually like to understand the scenario in which I would need all those features. In what sort of world will I saw branches to make a shelter, and then open a bottle of wine...?Nothing on this tool is a novelty - it's a proper Swiss Army Knife. The scissors are real. You can cut paper or clip your fingernails with them, and they are strong enough to deadhead roses - I just did exactly that.Beware of the knife blades - they are razor sharp. One is very small, and actually the one I use the most. It's perfect for opening boxes.The pliers are a little small if you are used to a Gerber tool, but the Deluxe Tinker is half the size of a Gerber. I've used the pliers for repairing key chains and my wife's necklace after it got caught in her handbag strap, which is real-word use. I can't say I ever actually used the pliers on my Gerber for anything!The best feature of this tool is the price. It's £40. For a genuine, Swiss-made Victorinox tool with a lifetime guarantee.

Good quality, every tool is useful. I think if you’re only getting one Swiss Army Knife, this is the one to get. Not too big, but has all the tools you need.

Im a musician but i also do a bunch of diffrent odd things like Origami, making duct tape folders & roses etc. Pretty hilarious i had to verify my age to buy it tbh. Some Gastapo stuff 🤣🤣 that aside......... really, really great multi tool. Had a couple as a teen back home on the farm, extrmely useful little tool for everything. I went for this model due to the little wrench it has 😂🔧

This is my favourite Victorinox model in the 91mm range, I bought it when on offer and there is nothing else close to it for the price-It has all the most useful tools for me in a top quality package.

This is a really nice Swiss Army Knife. It has all the standard tools, plus the scissors, pliers, and a Philips screwdriver instead of the usual corkscrew. The Philips is good, but be careful, as it is only suitable for light tasks. The screwdriver, whilst looking pretty beefy, is only as strong as the rivet and thin metal liners to which it is fixed. On a Tinker Small model, whilst doing something not particularly onerous, I managed to slightly deform the liners. You could ruin the knife if you try to make it do more than it's capable of. Otherwise, it's great, and this is the Deluxe model in the Tinker line. It's a 4-layer knife, which is too big for carrying in your pocket, in my opinion. Victorinox do various belt pouches for their knives. All the tools work well, including the pliers. Don't forget the miniature tweezers and toothpick! I really like this Swiss Army Knife. If you don't want the pliers, then the Super Tinker is what you want, but right now Amazon UK don't stock it.
