The small blade is not 30 cm nor anywhere near it. You need to get your tape measure out and probably apologise to Jo for misleading her. 😂
That's actually not how the wire stripper works. You put the bottle opener into the 90 degree position, place the wire in the stripper, and then let the knife blade fall onto the wire. Then you turn the wire and the blade gently slices through the insulation. Then you just yank it out and you're left with exposed conductors.
I lost mine recently!. It's the first time if have been without one since I was 13yrs old... I baught one for my granddaughter a month or so ago for her 13th birthday... we should all have one... Take care out there.
It looks in better Nick than mine. I bought mine in 1987 and apart from the spring on the scissors, it’s just as good as it ever was.
Did you know you can send a Victorinox for repair and it’s free….! ❤❤
For learning how to do stuff/ways the tools can be used with a Swiss Army knife, the ‘Felix Immler’ channel is the best (IMO).
Great demo of the functions. I've had mine nearly 40 years and still carry it in my walking bag. Used the saw blade a couple of times to cut branches off wind damaged trees blocking the path so we, and others, could continue without breaking our necks on the big drop off beside the path. Cheers
I carry an explorer everyday. I won't leave the house without it, it's become one of the most useful things I own!
They look good but I would never want to use a knife without a lock, I have sliced my finger to the bone when i.was a kid with a sharp knife locking back on my thumb 8 stitches later and bug scar on my thumb. Plod says otherwise with the locking blade under ridiculous UK law where only criminals are allowed a proper safe knife
They also make a fire steal that replaces the toothpick and an eye glass screw driver that fits in the corkscrew where your fire steal is now.
I have been using my swiss army knife since 1987 and truly these little quality tools are a "life saver".The huntsman model was my edc knife from 1993-1996.Also i carried the huntsman for few months when i was to the
Thanks for making this. It was me who asked. You're welcome everyone! 😂 You've convinced me to get one and know how to use it!
Can’t beat the usefulness of a SAK 🙌! I’ve collect many different models over the years and one of the first things I always do is either add a FireAnt or FireFly (the one that replaces the toothpick) to the knife. The huntsman is still definitely one of my favorite 91mm models in the woods. Although the FireAnt is really tiny, once you get use to its size it’s definitely more than capable of lighting a bit of birch bark to get a fire going. I really like the FireFly also because it allows you to carry the longer helix tinder. The longer grey tinder is also a bit better in windy conditions. Fun video for us SAK fans out there 👍👍
The little 3mm screwdriver on the end of the can opener is a small philips screwdriver too. I've used mine many times as such.
Love mine, a gift from my grandson that i hope to pass back to him one day.
Just got the mountaineer version that my work buddies bought as a leaving present. They pack a lot in to a small space.
The Huntsman's the perfect SAK for outdoors. 👍
Thank you for this video. I recently bought a huntsman as I am getting back into camping after a couple of decades hiatus, & I felt this was one of the better models for bushcraft etc. it’s been so handy even around the home!
RUclips gold Paul! I've owned several of these over a period of decades but I've still learned something new from this video.
Can’t beat a Swiss Army knife, multi tools are good but nothing beats a little red knife. Really enjoying these one a day videos.
