Buy I stand by Victorinox’s quality! Have you see the Swisstool Spirit MX Clip? The tolerances and fitment are better than Leatherman tools according to many youtubers.
I’ll be honest, I don’t how it is since the new millennia… I just know that the store I went to, near Switzerland, swore by Wenger, and carried no Victorinox models whatsoever. So I dunno if it’s real or if they pretended because of a bigger margin, but they didn’t seem too fond of Victorinox knives.
Gerber is shite.
Never tried. I’m really happy with my leathermans. I only mentioned it because of some reviews I found. But yeah, I never actually got one.
I do wish Victorinox had more one handed models, and pivots you could disassemble like LM.
Yeah exactly. This is one of the best aspects of leathermans IMHO.
Anecdotally, my Mountaineer is shaving sharp, and I’ve batoned it through firewood and it’s still that sharp
OK so it would seem that the quality did, in fact, go up, since I was a kid. For the blades at least. That or my knives were given to me with dulled blades. I actually couldn’t tell.
