From the renowned company that created the Swiss Army Knife a century ago comes the Explorer knife/multi-tool in a gift box that is perfect for any camping or hiking enthusiast. This very useful, 16-function multi-tool knife has been included in the Design Collection at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. The Explorer contains 16 stainless-steel tools that will be there when you need them, but not burden you with its size when you don't. The standard tools include a large blade, small blade, corkscrew, can opener, small screwdriver for Phillips screws, bottle opener with large screwdriver, wire stripper, reamer, key ring, tweezers, toothpick, scissors, multi-purpose hook (parcel carrier), Phillips screwdriver and magnifying glass.
The Explorer comes incased in a red and silver box crafted to look like the Original Swiss Army shield/logo. The attractive gift box makes this knife the perfect present during the holidays. The box can then be re-used to store special items. As with all Victorinox items, the Explorer is made to exacting standards of construction in Ibach, Switzerland at the same factory that has made Swiss Army knives for the last century. Victorinox focuses on every detail, from selecting the finest materials to performing the final inspection. In addition, each individual tool has been hardened in a different way to stand up to its designated use. Outfitted with a nylon handle and aluminum housing, the Explorer carries a lifetime warranty.

About Swiss Army Knives
In 1884, Swiss cutler Karl Elsener set up shop in Ibach-Schwyz, installing a waterwheel in Tobelbach Brook to run his grinding and polishing machines. Thus began what would become the international brand name Victorinox, a combination of Victoria, for Elsener's mother, and 'inox,' or stainless steel. Today, Victorinox produces watches, luggage, clothing, and, famously, Swiss Army Knives. The original product dates to 1897, when Elsener patented the Swiss Officer's and Sports Knife he supplied to the Swiss Army. Following World War II, American servicemen and women shopping in PX stores shortened the name to Swiss Army Knife, which lives on in English-speaking countries around the world and has become a metaphor for versatility.

Rating: - A great idea for a present, complete with a gift box!
Have looked at this Victorinox Swiss Army Explorer with Collectible Gift Box so many times before, always trying to find some justification for getting it... but in this case, it's for a gift. Already have a number of these fine Victorinox products, including the Victorinox Swiss Army Champion Plus, which sits in my camera bag, ready to go at all times. It's perhaps one of the best all-around tools that a pro or amateur photographer could look for as far as versatility goes.

Rating: - Quinticential pocket knife-Fantastic!
I have owned various incarnations of Victorinox Swiss Army knives for almost 3 decades. I think I am on my fourth now. Two lost and one given away. It lives in the pocket of my jeans every single day.
They change the model names and features around from year to year.
The Explorer is my current favorite and is essentially THE knife I have owned for all these years.
One of the major qualifying elements for me is the Phillips Head screwdriver, which I use regularly. Many of victorinox's ... Read More
Rating:  - A good value if purchased as a combo
The price for this one is pretty good if you purchase it with another knife to get free shipping. Can't say much about the Explorer - its a nice little knife. The shield case looks metal, but is cheap plastic. I could have done without it.
Rating: - Its there when you need it!
Swiss Army knife is so useful and its small and compact it fits into my lil black purse...can't go wrong...
Rating: - Wonderful pocket tool
I bought this for my 6 year old. She was admiring my 25 year old Climber knife on when I showed her the other knives she wanted one with a magnifier glass. The price was unbeatable at twenty bucks. This knife sell for forty dollars every where else. I wish the box was tin instead of painted plastic.
