        Great Knife - Same as Trekker

          Comments about Victorinox Soldier Swiss Army Knife:

          This is a great knife for a backpacker. It has a large useful blade, saw, bottle openers, screwdriver (flat and Phillips), and the punch. The blade is serrated at the front and smooth near the handle (backwards from most knives, but makes more sense). This is the exact same knife as the Swiss Army Trekker, except for the rubber grips in the handle, which don't feel any different than the trekker as well as the color (Trekker is black).

          the Soldier Knife does not come in a non-serrated version, but the Trekker comes in both serrated and non-serrated, so if you want a smooth blade, go with the trekker. Otherwise, this is just about the perfect back country knife, in my opinion.

            Comments about Victorinox Soldier Swiss Army Knife:

            I have owned the Camper and Climber versions of the traditional swiss army knives. I still use them to this day. Camping, Packing or traveling, I use these tools no less that 10 times per day, it never leaves my pocket. Still the traditional knives work best for urban travel and light hiking, but this new style has many practical improvments. First, the grip is far better and larger. this is important for heavy cutting and food prep. Second, It includes a beefy Philips screwdriver,; Nice quality. The larger grip makes the saw far mor practical for cutting wood, rope, nylon. Finally although it only has one large serrated blade, The blade locks and can be opened and operated with one hand. Very useful for climbing. This thing is more of a knife and less of an all-in-one. Cons: no cork-screw or scissors. Thats why my traditional knife stays at camp but this one travels with me. Get it, have it for life.

            This knife is an excellent utility knife when camping. Its great for cutting wood and an assortment of other functions. The only thing I don't like about it is that its a little big and heavy. As a backpacker, I would love to find a knife that's just as functional, but a little lighter. Still, it is a great knife for car camping and the BWCA. I'm glad I got it!
