Victorinox Swiss Army Grip Series - One Hand Forester Knife
From the renowned company that created the Swiss Army Knife a century ago comes the Grip series One Hand Forester knife, a compact multi-tool for camping, hiking, or around-the-house use. The One Hand Forester--modeled after Victorinox's popular Soldier knife--introduces red handles to the Grip series' dual-density lock-blade collection. The handles make the One Hand Forester attractive to the eye, while the multi-tool's 10 unique functions help you tackle a multitude of tasks with ease and precision. The One Hand Forester includes a variety of Swiss Army tools, including a one-handed serrated locking blade, a corkscrew, a can opener with a small screwdriver, a bottle opener with a large locking screwdriver and wire stripper, a reamer, a wood saw, and a key ring. As with all Victorinox items, the One Hand Forester is made to exacting standards, with dozens of steps going into its construction. Victorinox attends to 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. Measuring 4-3/8 inches long, the One Hand Forester carries a lifetime warranty.About Swiss Army KnivesIn 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.
