History and Heritage
In 1884, Master Cutler Karl Elsener opened a cutlery shop in Ibach, Switzerland. There, he and the cutlers’ union he formed produced the finest steel cutlery, finished with the now-famous proprietary edge preferred globally by professional and home cooks. In 1891, Karl supplied the Swiss Army with its standard issue Soldier’s Knife and in 1897 with the Officer’s Knife. In 1921, after the death of his mother, Victoria, and with the advent of stainless steel, then known as “inoxydable" and used in the production of his cutlery, Karl changed the name of the company to Victorinox. It is from those humble beginnings that a worldwide icon was born.
Today, Victorinox is still owned and operated by the Elsener family, and both the company and family still resides in the small village of Ibach, Switzerland.
Care Tips for Swiss Army Knives
The various tools are manufactured from high-quality steel with precisely tuned features that are essential for the particular application. The steel is tempered, annealed and polished to achieve the necessary hardness and provide optimum resistance to corrosion.
Sharpening
To re-sharpen your knife, use a whetstone at an angle of 15°– 20°. This will result in a cutting angle of 30°– 40°. If sharpening on a grinding wheel, always cool with plenty of water to avoid excessive temperatures and the resulting damages that may occur.
Cleaning
After you’ve used your Swiss Army Knife for all of its various applications, such as cutting open numerous boxes, you may notice that the blades begin to stick together. Opening and closing the blades in warm water several times will allow the tools to easily move again. Once they have dried, it is recommended, to apply a small drop of oil between the blade or tool shank and the spring. To optimally maintain the locking mechanism, periodically apply a drop of our recommended Swiss Army Knife Oil. Never put Swiss Army Knives in the dishwasher.The Swiss Army Golf Tool is a very useful tool that will make a great gift for your favorite golf enthusiast. The tool comes in a translucent blue color and is loaded with handy implements for a day on the course. Precision crafted in Switzerland, this tool is constructed with an acid-resistant nylon and aluminum handle, and 100-percent stainless-steel components to last you for years.Weighing only 65 grams, the golf tool does not look like a conventional pocket knife. It is wider, flat, and lies very comfortably in the hand. Ten tools are fitted underneath the robust, scratch-free nylon shell. The tools include a ball marker, repair tool (pitch fork) for one-handed use, tee puncher, and a groove cleaner. The ball marker is held in a slot on the top surface of the tool so the position of the ball can be quickly marked on the green with one hand.
The repair tool can be extended using the golf ball-shaped pushbutton and can be used to repair depressions in the grass. The blades fitted on the side disappear to the inside of the tool with the slightest pressure, so that the fork is very comfortable to use. In addition, the blade of the groove cleaner can be used to clean the grooves on the golf club, and also is very useful for punching the position for the tee--especially in hard or frozen ground. The golf tool also includes a pocket knife blade, scissors, cap lifter, nail file, tweezers, and a toothpick.
