[@bushcraftnorthof6012]

I went from carrying a Leatherman to a SAK a little over a year ago, and when you stop using a pliers based tool, you really start to get creative with this notch, among other tools on here. SAK makes you smarter!

[@nikgyver7]

always i was to sak carry..for this reason.

[@waldekmikoajczyk6051]

[@Noble_Isaac]

So if you carry a leatherman you become less smart? 😂

[@voffbe]

@Neebell if you carry a leatherman you already did the thinking before purchase and you bought the right tool😂 dumb point anyways, why would you prefer a tool that makes you solve puzzles instead of just getting the job done

[@patrickmcintosh3295]

So I went to check out mine, which stays on my INCH bag, but gets used a lot. Anyway I was surprised to see one.
Once again thanks, you never know when it might come in handy.

I have carried a Swiss Army knife for many years. I have used every blade and attachment for one reason or another. It's like American Express, I never leave home without it.

[@mattbobak4231]

I never thought I would use that tool until now

[@nikgyver7]

With a little imagination anything is possible..

[@jimihenrik11]

I got my first swiss army knife before i was 5 (25 now) and i have used it for everything showed in the video. After some time i gave up on always trying to keep it in it's best shape, it is a tool and shall be used as one. Although i really abused this thing i had to buy like only 3 new ones in the last 20 years.

[@nikgyver7]

i use them from 1987..if you use them with the right way still like new for a life.check the victortinox warranty and the service..

[@miqumiqu8673]

I got the huntsman it comes with a saw it is so cool. It has 2 knives and it comes with a real can opener. I already opened up a can of tomatoes for my mom.

[@ChintanPandya01]

The wire stripper itself has a rough surface. You don't need to cut it with the blade first. Just get a wire small enough to fit the notch and bend and pull it. It will strip the wire by itself. No other tools needed. Most people don't know this but feel the notch with your nails, you'll see.

[@nikgyver7]

it works with some sizes of wire without to cut it,i was thought that it is right to show all the possible ways to strip it,thank you for your comment.

You strip a wire in a pinch, But if said wire is important, use the proper tool, using a knife knicks the conductor.

Amazing!! Who would know? I kind of ...kind of thought the notch had a function (use) but wasn't quite sure. Now I know!!! But don't you think Swiss Army Knives are like a toy? A knife is a tool, we all know that. And I do use my knife: The toothpick, the screwdriver on the bottle opener to tighten the knobs on my girlfriend"s closet doors, and the big blade to open boxes, etc. But I'd like to see the very first Swiss Army Knife. And did the Army From Switzerland really use these knives?

[@nikgyver7]

is more serious tool than it looks.quality,handy,solid.i was to the Greek army for 1.5years,my victorinox save me.it was so necessary for me.blade,flat screwdriver,as screwdriver and pry tool,saw,can opener,scissors,toothpick,pen was the most used tools.all the other mans ask for me my sak to used everyday.i hope to help you.thanks.

[@7784000]

I recommend the SAK in combination with a large fixed blade knife. So you have one for the dirty tasks and one for food preparation and a scissor for your gf finger nails and even tweezers for her eyebrows...😉
So fixed knife for the men and SAK for the gentlemen

when your knife is about 3-4 layers thick you're better off cutting the insulation from free hand rather than using the trick with both the knife and wire stripper because the space in between gets bigger.
