Going through the Victorinox catalogue can be overwhelming. It’s easy to get excited and pick the most feature-packed item, but that means you have to lug a bulky knife around in your pocket. Here are some economical choices.

 

Leatherman Squirt ES4

This keychain pocket knife is perfect for techies. Not only is it TSA-approved, the ES4 comes with spring-action needlenose pliers, wire strippers (20–12GA) and wire strippers.

 

Victorinox Swiss Army Explorer Knife

Victorinox is the original manufacturer of Swiss Army knives and still produces them after more than a century. Outdoorsman will have numerous options from their extensive catalogue, but foodie-minded people will love the Explorer for its can opener and bottle opener. Its two sharp blades will cut through any ingredient you throw its way and the corkscrew will help pop Champagne for your cookout.

Benchmade Mini-Barrage

A multi-knife is convenient, but hunters and fisherman will want something to clean their prize. Using a Swiss Army knife will jam up the tools inside, so best to use a single blade knife like the Mini-Barrage. They’re expensive, but the quality and feel can’t be beat.

Böker Tech Tool Outdoor 6

Böker is a lesser-known German knife-maker, famous for being one of the first companies to produce a ceramic knife. They recently came out with their own multi-knife with updated safety features, getting rid of the small blade and can opener for a serrated line cutter and glass breaker.
