The Swiss army has entered the new millennium with a new issue Swiss Army Knife. Victorinox won the competition and we get our first look at what Swiss soldiers will be carrying into the future See what all the fuss is about as we put the new SAK through its paces.
The Trekker remains my back-up knife in the lumbar pack when hiking. I've had it for a few years and it seems to do well for most things I've put it through.
Have seen that knife when I was in Switzerland last year! Very nice, too bad I couldn't find a plain edged version. Otherwise, a superb survival/military pocket knife.
Along with the Farmer, the Trekker is brilliant. In most respects, it's a far more practical knife for *survival* use than the Farmer and certainly the previous issue knife.
