The tried and true Swiss Army Knife
Posted in: Uncategorized
We often discuss unitaskers but today I want to talk about multi-taskers. The classic Victorinox Swiss Army Ranger Pocket Knife measures in at 3.5 inches and weighs a minuscule 4.8 ounces as it packs a whopping 20 different tools including:
- Large and small knife blade
- Corkscrew
- Can opener
- Bottle opener
- Cap lifter
- Screwdriver
- Wire stripper
- Reamer, punch
- Multi-purpose hook
- Nail file
- Nail cleaner
- Scissors
- Metal file
- Fine screwdriver
- Wood saw
- Toothpick
- Tweezers
- Key ring (ok, so this isn’t really a tool)
You can’t take it on an airplane, but around your house it has endless possibilities. This is the gold standard of multi-taskers. You can get a left-handed version here. A Leatherman Multitool is the only multi-tasker that plays in the same league. Go get your MacGyver on!
