2 Layered Swiss Army Knives, There Are Some Great Options Out There.

[@assistivetek]

My favorite Swiss Army two layer knife is the Compact for EDC

[@Gogogordy1]

My Compact has been to over 9 countries with me, it's the best travel tool I can imagine. Of course I check it with my bag. The pen and scissors are indispensable when on the road for a couple of weeks or more.

[@project86xero]

Yes the only true answer is indeed the compact.

[@travis1240]

The lack of a Phillips on the compact is unfortunate (no the combo tool is not a sufficiently usable Phillips) , but I still think the compact is the best 2 layer, because having a nice scissors is really useful. The best 3 layer is the Yeoman, adding the really useful inline Phillips.

[@robertwilson2007]

I was looking at the Compact today but they want $55 USD and the Huntsman was $31.45 USD so I went with the Huntsman. I hope to see the Compact on sale one day.

[@its_clean]

@@robertwilson2007 According to Jon Gadget, the Compact is priced that way because it's hand-assembled, as opposed to most other small and medium models that are assembled with automated machines. All tools with Plus scales are hand-assembled, because Victorinox does not have an automated process for inserting the pen and straight pin. Since this pricing is a consequence of their production process, Victorinox can't sell it for less and so it's not too likely you'll ever see a dealer or retailer offer it on sale. If you like it you might as well get it now, or look on the secondary market for used ones. It's worth it- it really is the best all-around EDC SAK.

[@HoraceCafe]

My best 2 layers is the Compact for sure.

[@ironman2326]

Same

[@project86xero]

Indeed!

[@lukebusbridge6611]

Sportsman is VERY hard to beat. 84mm size plus file is absolutely brilliant. It's rapidly becoming my go-to EDC. I totally love it

[@misterkoben6780]

Same dude

[@adamkane7513]

I still carry my old Wenger Traveler. 85mm so very simillar to the Victorinox Sportsman but with scissors.

[@BootsWalken]

The Compact is my favorite two layer because it packs so much utility. The scissors of course, and the file on the hook just puts it over the top for me. I really wish Victorinox would put that on all the hooks

[@larrydye6374]

Concur. The compact is my EDC, because of the scissors.

[@ironman2326]

I like my Compact but the combo tool is not the best. I really like the separate bottle and can opener for the Phillip's screwdriver ability.

[@KyleTheDalek]

Agree, wish they put a awl order the smaller knife. I’m guessing the file on the hook will be a standard from now on?

[@its_clean]

@@ironman2326 Luckily that's why Victorinox offers so many models :) On most days, the Compact is perfect for me since I'll get a lot more use out of the scissors than anything else. If I happen to run across the occasional fastener, the combo tool is good enough to get by as a screwdriver. I'm not a technician, so on the rare days I think I might be around a lot of Phillips screws, then I bring the Tinker. Problem solved!

[@Moontrak]

What you use hook for if i can ask? Never understood that item.

[@IchibanOyabun]

The “Compact” is by far the best of the 2 layer Sak’s! Just the right amount of edc tools IMHO.

[@rickandpiesretirementadven9000]

For me the best 2 layer SAK is the Compact. It is in a rotation for my EDC but it is easily my favorite.

[@airmojo]

The 74mm Executive has been my favorite EDC knife since I bought one at an Army PX store while visiting a friend in Fort Bragg NC in 1977. Eventually lost that one, but quickly replaced it, and have a few more extra ones ! I often use the nail cleaner on some Phillips head screws ! My favorite 91mm is the retired Trail Guide (3 layers)... I really like to have scissors and a nail file on any knife that I carry... seem to always chip or break a nail... and so does my wife !

[@mickeychan6997]

In my opinion the Compact is the best EDC Swiss Army Knife. It has everything you need and nothing you don't, all in a two layer knife. it beats the Spartan hands down as it has scissors which in my opinion is one of the most useful tools you can have, and Victinox scissors work really well.

[@rickkerans8485]

Really nice to see some of those 2 layer knives. They all seemed fairly useful with tools. Thanks for sharing them.

[@franko3227]

My daily carry is the electrician

[@nirfz]

I got a Sportsman at the end of the 80's as a kid from my parents. Then in engineering school in the mid of the 90's i had an executive in my pocket for 5 years. Started my conscript service after that having the sportsman in my pocket during the service and in the freetime. Still have a sportsman in my pocket every day. It's not the old one, as i bought one with darker nylon scales around 12 years ago because it has the keyring and the scale tools. Some can't have a SAK or EDC without scissors, i don't want one without the nail file. Both sportsmans i have have the "diamond looking" nail file, not the one you have on the sportsman in the video. I do encounter sharp metal edges during in my work quite often, and annoyingly there's always one finger that gets either cut, or the nail gets torn. And so i prefer the nail file on my knife to be able so not hook every clothing part with my hand in such situations. So in essence for 22 years at work i have used the Sportsman whenever it was the best tool at hand. (2 weeks ago i used it to strip wires for 2 whole days. But not the "wire stripper", i am used to doing that with the blade. Very slim crosssection wires that the real wire stripping plies i had couldn't handle.)

[@michaelcolloton6971]

I carried a 2-layer Tinker exclusively for over 40 years. I always knew it was there, which was comforting, but it never got in thway. In recent years, I've bought a couple 3-layer knivto my rotation es and can sy the same thing. I can't imagine carrying a 4-layer or thicker knife around except in a pack of some kind. .For general tasks around my home or campsite,s, a 2-layer knife is just fine.

[@davidkurle5418]

The only two-layer SAKs that I have are an alox cadet and a 91mm tinker. The cadet usually gets carried on my key chain (in rotation with my classic sd), and the tinker is one of my regular knives to carry on the weekends when I'm not at work. Thanks for the look at all these great knives, my friend!

[@markcoffman494]

You are so welcome! Glad to see you have some favorites!

[@dougdixonhull]

Great video. I’ve just got the Hiker knife. Very simple but good for my EDC carry. And a great price at around £15 uk.

[@bobcole612]

I’ve carried a Tinker for the last 30 years. I thought I lost it so I bought a replacement, then I found mine. It has a hole in the awl, I’ll have to compare it to my newer one.

[@KnifeChatswithTobias]

I wished they'd do an Alox Rambler. The Midnite Manager is a Rambler with the ink pen and LED light. A little but just about everything you need on a key chain knife. Don't forget that the screw driver tip on the can opener doubles as a Phillips Driver! Nice run down!

[@WilliamParmley]

Great overview! I just this week "rediscovered" my tinker, and I have a cadet sitting on the end table next to our couch. The electrician is another very good two layer SAK.

[@diverdave2179]

I used to ignore the two layer SAKs except for the Rally, and swore I would never buy a Spartan. Then in the last two months, I bought 2 :). One was an adverising piece with the knurled corkscrew, the other was an Edisona, with aluminum overlay (?) engarved with Swiss embls and scenery. Great vid, Mark!

[@TheMasonator777]

The Electrician is great for bench work.

[@zripster]

the cigar 36 is another option. nail file, blade, corkscrew, tweezer, toothpick, and cigar cutter.

Happy Sunday Mark, my favorite & most carried 2 layer SAK's are a black scaled standard Alox 93mm Pioneer , a silver Alox Swiss Army 6 AKA the Pioneer Rancher ( which is discontinued from 2020 ) , the 74mm Executive ( my black scaled one is probably made post 2017 going by the current crosscut design of the nail file ) & the 91mm Spartan - I have quite a few of them with decorative scales such as the, "From Russia with love" special edition, the Israel flag special edition Spartan, the 4 knife "Star Wars" Spartan collection ( hand decorated / etched scales made by a Ukrainian artist ), the Swiss Antonov 2 aviation club special edition, the colorful VX & "Look" models , a silver-tech & various colored Plus scale models. Mostly I carry the Plus scaled & Silver Tech Spartans which are all fitted with a SwissQlip, occasionally the Israel Flag, VX and Look models & the collectables are in their boxes in pristine condition . I do have 2 84mm Sportsman ( 1 old model with the diamond dust style nail file & a newer one with the post 2017 crosscut nail file ) & a new 84mm Tourist and 3 x 84mm Cadets ( a red & a black pre-2017 with the diamond dust nail file & the 2020 aqua blue limited edition model ) . Nowadays I no longer carry any of the 84mm models but I used to carry both the Cadets & the Sportsman as Gentleman's blades in my pocket for a night out but recently I have opted to carry the 93mm silver Alox Swiss Army 6 , the 93mm silver Alox Swiss Army 2 ( another discontinued knife in 2020 with a single layer main blade & Hawksbill blade ) or the 74mm Executive.

For my taste you saved the best to last with the gold Alox Pioneer 😍. My battered Pioneer is the edc tool I pickup when I’m not carrying anything else.. I love the robust minimalism and the tools are the ones I use the most. The cap lifter and the tin opener are so useful as prying tools, the tin opener functions asa quick cross head and the main blade and spring strength are superior and more workmanlike than the Celidor models while still being pocketable and discreet. Plus it has the best awl of any multi tool I use. It makes a useful bradawl when needed. Had it for thirty years, gave it away at one point and got another as I missed it.

Big fan of sportsman and compact myself.

[@g.victorpaulson8836]

I'm a huge fan of the Farmer-X, personally; it's my go-to. Large blade, saw, scissor, awl, can opener, cap lifter. Does everything I've ever asked of a pocket knife. I only wish Victorinox would include their tweezer and a ferro stick (instead of that stupid toothpick).

[@gabithemagyar]

The Ranger Grip 68 is also a great 2 layer knife. It is a large 130mm knife with large blade, can opener, cap lifter, corkscrew, awl (with hole), toothpick and tweezers. Great for food prep at a picnic or when camping :-) Almost like a king sized Spartan except for no small secondary blade.

The two layer is okay for the every day basics my favourite being the Spartan but also the Evo grip 10 that Is basically a better version of the original Spartan because of the rubberised grip and It being a tiny bit smaller than the Spartan but if you go backpacking or hiking it is better to carry a 3 or 4 layer knife like the camper or huntsman

Very interesting about the single leaf spring on the scissors being from before 1975. Now I know one of my Sak’s is vintage. It is the classic except it doesn’t have the tweezers, toothpick or key ring and it has metal scales that are painted red, however the paint has started to deteriorate on the edges. It is super thin and perfect for nail maintenance and opening letters. I just ordered a compact and thought for sure it would be on you list. Definitely a little pricey but the “compactness” and tools it packs are exactly what I wanted for an edc.

[@Vpentrov]

Does it have the flat screwdriver on the file?

[@franswa1976]

Personally, for EDC, I restrict myself to 84mm 2 layers models, otherwise I don’t carry them. I have the tourist which is a smaller version Spartan, almost like the sportsman except for the nail file. I also have the waiter because I cannot skip the corkscrew on my Swiss Army knives 😅 If I would go bigger, I would choose the Victorinox compact because of the scissors but still 2 layers. Not easy to find the perfect fit with SAKs but I think you need different options and choose your knife depending on the coming day.

So many of these don't have scissors. For me that's the main thing I want from an SAK. Been looking for a two-layer without a corkscrew and with scissors. I wish the Compact had the Phillips screwdriver instead of the cork-screw as it's much more suited to urban EDC. I have a Huntsman for rural use and my main Urban EDC is the Super Tinker. I just want to shave a bit of weight off and have less pocket bulk. I do use a Midnite Manager in the 5th pocket of my jeans but wanted some more substantial tools for larger tasks. It can be a never ending venture trying to find 'The One'. Anyway, nice little review of your collection. Thanks!

Honestly, if Victorinox could make it I would love to have an 84 mm frame, with scissors on one side and then a cap lifter on the opposite end and then the small knife blade. That would honestly be the perfect Swiss Army knife for me I don’t ever really need the larger blade. And it would be a great utility knife. Possibly if it can have some back tools a reamer and screwdriver
