Victorinox Swiss Army Sports Knife

Earlier this summer I picked up a Victorinox Swiss Army Sports Knife from Canadian Tire.

It is a nylon scaled Spartan as far as I can tell.

The features include:

1. Large blade
2. Small blade
3. Corkscrew
4. Can opener with
5. -small screwdriver
6. Cap lifter with
7. -screwdriver
8. -wire stripper
9. Reamer with sewing eye
10. Key ring
11. Tweezers
12. Toothpick

The Canadian Tire website lists the blade steel as X55CrMo14
Closed the knife is 91mm long and with the blade open it is about 160mm long. It is 14mm at its widest point.

So far I have Sports Knife to pop caps off of drinks, to cut suckers off of the tomato plants and I have used the corkscrew to scrape rust and road gunk from the welded nuts under the car. I was hoping to install a Hidden Hitch but the rust was bad enough that the nut needed to be tapped.  I like the nylon scales on these economy units from Victorinox. The nylon seems to provide a better grip in the hand than the cellidor scales....although the logo wears off quicker. With the reamer and the corkscrew on the back springs I don't know if they have an equivalent Alox model. These items are thick when combined and the corkscrew would stick out from the Alox scales enough that the bump would be noticeable.

The day I picked up this knife it was on sale at Canadian Tire. I was also able to buy a Swiss Champ on sale that day as well. I will keep watching for more price reductions at Canadian Tire to further grow my collection of Multitools.

My at-work carry recently has been the Victorinox Cadet as it is easy to lug around in my office pants. The Victorinox Swiss Army Sports Knife has been riding in my car though as backup if I forget the Cadet.
