60 Secret Functions of the Swiss Army Knife Only a Few People Know About

[@BikeLifeNJ-r5o]

Wow I'm a mechanic and electrician. I don't know how many of these I've thrown out over the years and I'm just mind-blown as I watch this. I completely underestimated this tool. Now that I'm learning Bushcraft a swiss army knife is considered a must have in the survival kit and I couldn't understand why.. I'd like to thank you for teaching me something new at almost 40 years old.

I think we all have to give a moment of thanks to all the brilliant engineers that thought up the various tools in the Swiss Army knives. Like the guy that thought of putting the straight pin behind the corkscrew, or the parcel hook and magnifying glass. They are the unsung heroes …who knows how many lives they saved, or at least gotten people out of precarious situations.

[@lesliekilgore648]

parcel hook? you do know that tool is actually for GUTTING FISH right? on the back of the SwiAK... videographer uses it once at timecode 23:32 to grab the hot metal handle of his camp pot. its ACTUAL purpose is... you use the penknife blade to slit the anus of a fish slightly anterior towards its head along the midline of the abdomen. then you shove that hook up the anus of the fish, twirl and whirl and spin the hook around YOINKING guts out of the fish through its anus. but of course, it is just easier to slit the whole belly of the fish open from anus to the other end of the fish and open it up and scrape the guts out that way. but a parcel hook? i've never even heard of it called that. sure, i've USED it to carry stuff bound in twine or heavy cord, like the videographer does.

Many of them I knew and many I did not simply because I have not had the use/need for that function. I feel like another good title would be "The multitude of reasons the 'parcel hook' isn't completely useless" Another thing is that if a person has a Cybertool variation but is tired of the costly replacement bits, you can actually use a bit of resin or ca glue to instal 4x1mm magnets in both the driver and bit holder allowing the use of standard micro driver bits of higher quality. Not to mention you can have a lot more choices in bits functions/sizes. At least thats what I've done with 2 different models. Regardless, great demonstration!

The biggest secret I learned is that some models apparently do not include a Phillips head screw driver. Instead, you use the tool to drive a hex socket, which in turn drives a screwdriver bit. If I am carrying sockets and screw driver bits, I'd also have a proper tool to frive them with.

[@JasonMartinez-h4r]

i had to do that in the desert once, all we had was the bit and a socket and my pocket knife, we lost the screwdriver. i needed to open the battery lid on my radio

Yeah Philips head instead of corkscrew is kind of non-standard on Victorinox Swiss army knives. More models have corkscrews than Philips. I'd prefer the other way around. I don't know of any Victorinox models that are intended to be used with a socket (this is more of a SOG thing) but there may be other brands that have a setup like that.

@@LastBastian”tie your shoes”… and furthermore, he’s advising people to use a square knot with two releases, which is commonly known as a “bow knot”. However, many people inadvertently wrap the laces twice in the same direction, which cause the knot to hang at 45° - 90°, whereas a square knot uses two opposing wraps, keeping the resulting bow neatly horizontal with the standing ends.

@@LastBastian I must say that I’ve been the past two months studying knots intensively, so all the terminology is fresh in mind, although decoding Britspeak still takes some work (although I’m practiced in that as well). Ill give you a bonus bit of terminology: the knot made by two wraps in the same direction is the “granny knot”, and there is a variant of the square knot called the “thief’s knot”, which was reportedly used to detect if a knave had rifled through your gear. The square knot itself is also known as the “reef knot”.

I've been carrying my Swisschamp for years and never thought of a lot of those, but what I really want to know is where to get one of those magnets! BTW, for anyone wondering which model is right for you, my advice is to just get the basic Swisschamp model. It's a little expensive, but just bite the bullet and get one. You won't be sorry. IMHO, it's by far the most versatile and useful SAK on the market! I really wish Victorinox would introduce a version of the larger Workchamp series knives with the same set of tools as the basic Swisschamp Utility Knife, just bigger. Right now all there are is the standard Workchamp that's missing some useful tools and the Workchamp XL which is just too damn big.

You won't be sorry unti you find it in your pocket or bag at TSA and have to leave it behind. Ask me how I know. I just order a new one as soon as I get home, to dull the pain. Also, weight and bulk are factors to consider. I found that I need a pliers.

​@@williamstaley3331Stunned by your comment...This exactly happened to me 1 week back at the airport..😢 It was a red Handyman maintained in factory condition for the past 12 years... Going through all the SAK videos now to decide upon which model to get next as an upgrade...

[@williamstaley3331]

@@West2WesternGhats I now keep in my carry on bag the box that my SAK came in, as a reminder to leave it at home. A photo (on paper) of the knife, with the photo kept in the carry on bag, works, too.

This is the greatest video of all time!!! LoL. Seriously! Love this. Can't wait to get my first SAK.

Using scissors to pick up carrots is pushing it.

[@danmano478]

You got it right: You have to push the scissors into the carrots. 😂

[@roberttrinies7698]

I thought the same thing, maybe the fish scaler would be better. ✌️

[@Bob_Jeff_is_Back]

Yeah and dont forgetbcutting the carrots, revolutionary stuff

[@kagezen]

This video was awesome! Thank you for teaching me how to use my Swiss army knife!!

[@alejandroescalante2180]

I just wonder, why, when stripping wires, it wasn't used the wire stripper. The notch at the bottle opener used to bend wire instead. Any way, too many have never come to my mind. Great video!

[@Kirgen13]

Easily one of the best knife videos ever wow

[@Sampilo]

What size is that magnet stored in the hook?

[@dax9431]

ya....would be nice but mine has no magnet..... in fact mine has several differences. YES to Swiss!

[@grantdavis5992]

I think the magnet is just one which fits.

[@ericojonx]

Amazon. Might be the 3mm dia. s/b easy to find. Option, search you tube.
