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.

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.

Went back few years ago and was shocked to see it had risen about 400mm but had rotated about 30deg.

Simply amazing how many functions one Victorinox Swiss Army knife can perform. I saw you use the parcel hook, and the flat bladed screwdriver both for use in the drive end of a socket. That parcel hook, by some people's accounts is useless, but you have shown many uses. In an age of not well thought out manufacturing, where single purpose products don't even do their intended use well, the Victorinox shines as a beacon of accomplishment for the less hairy ape....thanks for all the work you put into this excellent, entertaining video!

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.

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.

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 wire stripper works without the blade. It's a stand alone tool. Sharper than you think. Insert wire,pull wire deep into slot while pulling through the slot. Strips it right off. Quickly

I own 5 SAK's, the wire stripper notch on all of them is totally blunt. I thought it was completely useless until I saw this video !

I watched this video several times yesterday so I'd absorb it all. And today, while mounting a new TV, hubs stripped out the hex screw heads. It took some serious elbow grease, but the hacksaw slot worked!! We didn't use a SAK, but still, great tip whatever the tool!

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!

Espectacular, la compré al entrar a la universidad, soy biólogo y ecólogo, me sacó en campo de muchos problemas, pero ignoraba en cuántos más me podría ayudar, tengo 2, la que se ve en el video y la última, reciente hecha para el ejercito suizo. Magnifica herramienta.

Where you get a magnet that small/size as that’s a great tip.

About five or six of these (pot hook to remove a container of boiling water from an open flame) are the same. There were also several instances of how to remove a screw, although the one featuring a way to revitalize a stripped screw was good. Two ways to create kindling and start a fire. There were other redundancies as well, so I'd reduce that list of 60 down to 30 or 40 at the outside.

It's worth noting that different knives include different blades. So seeing two blades perform the same task may be very useful.
