This is my first larger Swiss army knife. I was surprised at how well it fits in the hand. It's not overloaded with features. The blade protrudes enough that, with some practice, you can open it one-handed. The lock holds the blade firmly. The matte handle scales feel pleasant to the touch.

Good Swiss army knife, quite big. Until now, I used a smaller model. This one has a blade lock, which is very useful. It will come in handy on various trips, camping, or on a boat.

The Victorinox Picknicker is a true 'machine' – it has a large locking blade like the Sentinel as well as additional tools typical for Swiss army knives :) It can serve as your only EDC; it's quite heavy (which is understandable with so many tools) but sits comfortably in the hand.

Very good Swiss army knife, previously available under the WENGER brand, but since Victorinox took over the company, it's now under this name. Great knife for trips, hiking in the mountains or excursions.

The nylon handles are comfortable and scratch-resistant, unlike the plastic ones from the smaller knives of this brand. There aren’t many tools, but for most camping tasks you don't need more. Fewer functions mean the knife isn't too thick, making it slimmer and easier to fit in your pocket. However, I still recommend a dedicated holster, as it's more convenient to wear it on your belt (in that case, a bit of extra thickness doesn’t matter). People who prefer minimalism will still choose the model with just the blade.

It's like a Forester, just without the saw, but a forester doesn’t need a saw anyway. I really recommend the build quality and the locking mechanism action when closing.

Victorinox – that's a rating in itself. The quality is top-level, just as always with this brand.

Excellent. It doesn't disappear in your hand like those smaller models.

If you don't need a folder for your EDC and a classic Victorinox seems too small, this model will be perfect for urban EDC!

Very good Swiss army knife. Ideal for everyday use – not too big, not too small (the ranger is better for trips). It's solid, and in my piece, there is no play in the blade at all, though I have heard that it happened in older models. WARNING – very sharp, I managed to shave my arm without any problem (although not perfectly).

Very pleasant knife, it's just a shame that it's matt, but it's great nonetheless.

Great Swiss army knife, solid and very sharp!
