When I was in the Army (US), I bought and carried the Pioneer because I didn’t know the Farmer existed. The inclusion of the wood saw makes the Farmer the ultimate bushcraft knife, in my opinion.

I already have mine. Plus half a dozen of other victorinox models. I live near the swiss borders, i'm french but my grand-pa was from Switzerland. When i was in the french army, i used to have the Huntsman model (with saw and scissors) wich is also a fabulous pocket knife. Love them all.

I have used an alox sided Victorinox kine for 12 years a soldier and then for a further 26 years in a laboratory and used it multiple times a day every day. you have made a very good choice of personal knife. It is far more practical and useable than the enormous tactical knives that are all over the internet. This leads me to why would an office worker or IT guy need a huge tactical knife.

I got put off of alox/aluminium scales for years after buying a modern folder with them on that slipped in your hand. I'm glad I eventually got a farmer though, you can keep a grip well enough. It's solid, well built, the extra chunky blade is great and it has a good outdoors tool set. Good stuff!

The awl will do heavy duty cutting jobs, like boxes, and cord. It can be opened one handed with practice, and will easily cut seat belts. The small screwdriver works on some Torx and Philips head screws as well an small slotted screws. The Saw is great on plastic and wood. I think this is the most versatile pocked knife I've had. Carried mine for many years now.

Great video! Great music! I love the farmer. I think all Swiss army knifes are stronger and sturdier than they look, especially the alox ones, it is amazing to know that it can serves well in every day use even when it comes to some kind of heavy duty tasks. It doesn't look like it can be that sturdy and powerful from the outside but when you get to know it you will be surprised.

@@greenman7126 Agree…the Farmer X Alox with BOTH the saw and scissors, the heavy awl located on the end & large gauge main blade…is the ideal SAK. Then again I have an Evo 17 in both the yellow and the wood handle scales that find their way into my pocket pretty often. But if I could only have one it would be the Alox Farmer X.

Nice review! Alox knives are amazing: they are very robust and look very good. Especially the colored ones - although the color wears off over time. But worn Alox looks good too. :) One useful thing that I you haven't mentioned or shown I believe: the reamer is an excellent striker for ferro rods.
@AaronIsaak476 жыл бұрын
miklospinter, even better you can save the edge on your reamer by using the back of the saw, works great
@miklospinter6 жыл бұрын
Yeah, I heard that from many people but I prefer the reamer. I guess it also depends on your technique and the type of ferro rod, but I tried mine with the saw and it did not work as well as with the reamer. Even the can opener worked better for me (and I found it safer). But maybe it's just me... Regarding sharpness: my ferro rod is probably a softer one, but the reamer remained sharp after quite a few strikes - but sometimes I sharpen my reamer just like the blade, so I don't really try to save the edge.

Years ago I lost a Farmer on a trip, so I replaced it months later and in 2019 I lost the new one on another trip. Pure bad luck! I really treasure my Swiss Army Knives and hardly ever lose stuff. The knives fell out of my pocket, it can happen. I'm hoping to buy a third Farmer (this time in green scales), in addition to a Pioneer X, which adds scissors.

With all those knives and multitools it is easy to be intoxicated and ending up having backward not ideal tools. Those are not yet touhght after in a complementary way. At home I'll have proper tools for doing things, like at work. On the move I'll have a locking blade, a Leatherman for the pliers wire cutter, AND a small cybertool somewhere, etc. When do those companies like Victorinox and Leatherman start to think "complement" and "compatibility" ? The small blade on a swiss army knife is way more used than the big one. A tool should split, most of the time you need 2 to pry open, to tighten or unscrew some bolts. I agree this farmer is good for what it is, but I won't be able to go out without my main blade and a saw even on the 130mm gardener will always be sub par vs a ... saw. On the swiss army knife I would replace main blade by something more useful, just an example. The screwdriver/scraper, the owl, the can opener, all are amazing. it would be a nice complement to have a victorinox classic or a nail clipper as a complement with plastic scales to have the tweesers. (see how often you slide a wood chip under the skin ...) And then there is bulk : even at home and at work, there are always cases where I will prefer those small multitools to the proper tools, because of lacking space, or special cases. So those are not gagets, those are real.
