Great Combo Package December 11, 2007 James 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I love the Tinker. It is a great versatile tool. Works great for camping. I had one before (that I paid $19.99 for by itself at a sporting goods store) but I lost it. I got quick delivery. This is a great value!!
GREAT PRODUCT FOR A GREAT PRICE August 29, 2008 Christopher Granke (Des Moines, IA USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I recently lost my keychain knife and was looking to replace it. The price on this package was so good I couldn't resist it! Now I am purchasing another set as a gift and will probably be back for more before Christmas! I also couldn't believe how fast I received my order. This a great product, great price.
Great Choice for a Boy Scout Gift! March 26, 2009 TaKisha Williams (Baltimore, MD) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I was looking for the perfect amount of not too complicated and just enough gadget for a emerging cub to boy scout gift! The price was very reasonable and the product was true to description! Loved the bonus gift!!!
another argument for screwcaps April 17, 2009 Karl F. Riemer 4 out of 6 found this review helpful
In the search for maximum function/minimum mass, Tinker leads the list. Wenger and Victorinox each make a dizzying array of combinations, most of which are simply too much steel to lug around. (For fun, check out the Wenger Giant: Wenger The Giant Knife.) Wenger no longer makes an exact corollary to the Tinker, though the Classic 11, which used to be the Highlander, and the discontinued but still available Teton, are close and excellent. Here on Amazon we have only Victorinox, and that means Tinker. 2 blades is useful only if you have no sharpener, and bottle openers are nearly obsolete, but a Phillips screwdriver is essential, and a second size straight screwdriver makes the nibbler can opener bearable. (For a real can opener, look at a Wenger or GI knife.) Next most useful tool would be pliers, that's a Deluxe Tinker, but pliers makes this a tool you try to keep handy in your pack or glovebox, not your jeans pocket. The Phillips blade obviates a corkscrew, which is no great loss because if you're carrying a glass wine bottle you can also carry a corkscrew, or you can push the cork in. The better answer is to buy from bottlers who embrace the better stopper, the inevitable universal stopper, screwcaps, and leave cork oaks in peace.
If paper dolls are the extent of your agenda, slimmer knives like the little Classic will work. To build a raft and get off the island, a Tinker is the sufficient minimum. For an ideal combination of tools at less bulk, Victorinox makes a Wenger-sized Tinker that I think is close to perfect for everyday. Victorinox Swiss Army Knife
A purple version or Mogen David on blue instead of Swiss cross on red would have been sweet, but this combination is a terrific bargain and only comes in classic garb.

Victorinox makes the best damn knives, wallets etc. If their name is on it, buy it.
