Victorinox 53905 Report


Victorinox 53905 Review by Michael Sheldon

I've had multiple Leatherman tools, and a SOG multitool, but the Victorinox is far superior overall.

Both the Leatherman and the SOG have the main design flaw of having the tools open only when the pliers are opened. This is truly an inferior design. The SOG has stronger pliers, but that's its only advantage. Otherwise it is difficult to use, sometimes it's outright frustrating.

I guess the one thing I can say about the Victorinox is that I *use* it, all the time, for everything. It has the tools I need, in a form that makes them practical to use. And they are of high quality so they last. I bought my first one to replace a Leatherman, lost it after a couple years, replaced it with another, then a couple years later, misplaced that one. I then replaced that one with a SOG, a purchase I am not entirely happy with. Fortunately, my SwissTool showed up a few months later, and the SOG is now residing in a drawer. If/when I manage to misplace it again, I won't fool around again, I'll just buy another SwissTool.


Victorinox 53905 Review by Oscar Cavazos "Oscar Cavazos" (South Texas)

I have had a few of these over the last 5+ years, not because I have worn them out, but due to one being ripped off at work and one stolen when i left it on the counter at work. I bought this latest one as a replacement to make my current Swiss tool a spare to keep in the RV. I work in a OPE dealership and I have found this is the best Multi-plier I have tried. I started out with the Gerber slide out milti-tool. It was great but I would have to open the plier to use the Knife or any other tool, plus it had a bad tendency to slip off what ever I was tightening and pinch my palm. I also tried the Sog Multi tool and it has a great plier, but I found the tools did not compare to the Swiss-tool. What I like about the Swiss-tool is the easy of access of all the tools, Knifes, phillips and straight screwdrivers, file, chisel, ect. The 9" ruler is a great tool that I use frequently. The only reason that I gave it 4 stars is that on my old swiss tool the blade lockout is showing fatigue. The lock out does not hold well anymore.

I bought this as a replacement after a trip on which I thought I had lost one. It is our picnic, travel and repair tool. It's a bit heavy but great to throw in the car. The original one turned up, so, we have one in each car. It has helped us out of many jams.

Victorinox pocket tools incorporate more than a century of tradition and experience. In 1884, the original knife workshop was established by karl and victoria elsener and the first delivery of knives to the swiss army was made in 1891. When karl elsener created the "original swiss army knife" in 1897, he began what would become the symbol for quality, functionality and swiss inventive talent all over the world.
