Swiss Army 1 Silver Alox

With the large blade for food prep and the wharnecliffe blade for utility cuts, this reminds me of an Alox version of one of the old "Stockman" or other multiple-blade "pattern" knives. In addition to two great blades, you get the reamer and the cap lifter/slotted driver which is also a nice pry bar. Awesome knife for the price.

Pic is wrong on the Amazon thumbnail. It’s of a solo / single blade. This is a 4 blade tool. I borrowed my son's scout knife. I needed a can opener. I thought- “I want a Swiss Army Knife”. So I got the Electrician. I’ll explain. The Alox Electrician is an ideal pocket knife / multi tool. Only 2 sections thick, so it is thinner than you think. Disappears in pocket. My first SAK and first Alox I've ever held. Aluminum is extremely durable compared to plastic handle / scales on typical knives from Vic. Main blade is much thicker than normal SAK, very sturdy. It’s also on a bevel cut which you can see in the pics. Allows the bottle opener to be thick. BTW. the bottle opener is best I've used on a knife. Thick screwdriver, serves as a limited pry tool. Love the 90 degree lock on screwdriver. Wish all blades did that on knife (safety). Awl is very useful / tough blade. The awl is the best Amazon Box opener ever devised. Don’t ruin your good blades on tape. The aw is a rt angle stamped part for strength (pic). Sort of a lawn mower blade. Best blade is electrician. Short and handy sheep’s foot blade w a circular cut out to strip insulation. It takes the place of the can opener on the standard Pioneer/ original design. Makes the knife very unique. I’ll gladly give up can opener to have that every day. I'll use my son's can opener when I need one! Maybe I need a pioneer too. It becomes a problem. Nothing you don’t need. So easy to carry. Wish they made colors. This is the most practical knife of the series because of ease of carry and short blade. I’ve owned 2 as I lost one.

Item received in mint description, packed well and on time. As with all Swiss Army knives they never dissapoint.

Forever, I believed that the last knife I would ever want or need would be a Victorinox SAK (Swiss Army Knife). I've gone through many different "phases" in my pocket knife-toting life, from slipjoint pocket knives to tactical, assisted-open knives. I've worked my way through all kinds of different steels from 1095 carbon, to S30V super stainless. When a co-worker and I got to talking about Victorinox, I immediately dismissed the entire brand. I thought I needed a "better" steel. I didn't want all of the "junk" that came with a standard SAK. Then I came across the Electrician. It has everything you need and nothing you don't. The combination of the sheepsfoot blade, reamer (or punch) and the silver alox scales are what originally drew me in. The more I thought about it, the more I HAD to have it, so I placed an order. 2 days later, it showed up on my doorstep and wow, was I impressed. It was perfect. The fit & finish are excellent and the size is just right. It's only about 7/16" thick and it really disappears into your pocket. The silver alox (as apposed to the standard red plastic) is nice and thin and I love that it looks different than a "normal" SAK. The main blade is just what you'd expect, but the sheepsfoot blade and the reamer are what really sets this little knife apart from the rest. The 420HC stainless steel that Victorinox uses is really good enough for anyone. I use my DMT diamond diafolds & benchstones on all of my knives with much success and the Electrician is no different. It sharpens easily, maintains an edge for long enough. I never let it get too dull before I resharpen it. I'm very happy with it overall and find it as a great addition to my EDC lineup.

This knife is one of the Victorinox Alox series knives. That means it's a little more rugged and stronger than the more common red Victorinox knives. The knife was brand new and shipped quickly. Great deal!

Vale toda la pena tener esta pieza, modelo Electrician Alox. Compacta ideal para bolsillo, a mi gusto mejor que una pionner alox. Encantado con el brillo de sus cachas. Las fotos no destacan su belleza. Saludos y si lo vale amigos.

PESSIMA embalagem da Amazon (envelope) não protege a embalagem do produto 👎👎👎

Extremely well crafted pocket knife. Everything is rock solid and the alox exterior looks practically indestructible. I have no doubt that this would make an excellent knife for many uses. It is a little larger than most Swiss Army Knives, but probably more useful for this extra size. The smaller 'wire stripper' blade is extremely robust. There are a couple of strange tool choices, it has a reamer, but no Philips head screwdriver, which seems bizarre for a knife called the "electrician". It also lacks a split-ring, which is a pity as I would like to hang it from a carabiner. However if the tool choices fit your needs, and you don't need a locking blade, this would be a great pocket knife for EDC.

This knife is elegant Swiss simplicity. It's a little longer than models with a keychain loop at the end. At the same time it is more slender. This is excellent EDC that ought to last a lifetime. Well worth the investment. ⭐

Es una excelente navaja, ya viene obviamente afilada. Siempre la cargo en el bolsillo y no se siente incomodo, es delgada. Me encanta.
