Great all around knife! Women love it too! Review by Chet in MS

Rating

The engraving really made the knife special. I have owned this model for years, and it is very handy. Don't take it on a plane or courthouse...you will lose it there.
Great gift idea and something that will be handed down in the family. Maybe my grandson will have my knife some day with my name on it...cool!

Good knife not Great Review by Dan

Rating

Great knife have one for 25 years just a wonderful. Had to get it replaced worn out and broken parts. New one is not as good as the older one, weaker spring in the scissors and no screw to tighten or loosen just a rivet. I still love the knife just wish they didn't try to improve on it.

Great Knife for the business man! Review by Sam

I have this model in stainless steel and love it. I have had it for over 20 years and if I can't find another stainless model, I will buy the red plastic model. Great utility knife for the business exe.

Cannot live without it Review by ophiothrix

Rating

I have owned several Executive knives, and always keep one as a backup. There is nothing better for daily use, and I'm as lost without my knife as I am without my keys. I particularly like the orange peeler and files, both of which work wonderfully. The only time I set my Executive aside is when I am going outdoors and replace it with my bulkier, but more versatile Backpacker. The Executive is the best tool I have ever owned.

Excellent knife Review by Rick

Rating

I have had my knife for over 52years...gift from my father on my 9th birthday. My wife asked me to see if the same style was still in production. If so, she wanted one as a Christmas gift. After much review of Swiss Army knives, I was very pleased to find that it is still available. I have never managed to keep anything so long...let a lone continuously on my person during Viet Nam and other travels in life, and have it still work without any problem.

It's a Swiss thing... Review by Sam

Rating

Just recieved it as a gift. Have owned many Victorinox over the years, always impressed with quality. Amazed at how they get misplaced or lost, but suspect it is the smooth sides and gentle shape that allow it to slip and disappear where bulky uncomfortable knives would stay put. Well worth the replacement inconvenience.

Have used constantly since the 1980s Review by Gspin

i AM ON MY 5TH SWISS ARMY EXECUTIVE KNIFE. WHENEVER I LOSE ONE, I WAIT A COUPLE OF WEEKS TO MAKE SURE IT DOESN'T TURN UP. THOSE WEEKS ARE MISERABLE AS I MUST FIND SUBSTITUTES FOR LOTS OF LITTLE JOBS THAT MAKE ME AWARE OF HOW DEPENDENT I AM ON THIS KNIFE.

IT IS A GREAT TOOL

Used every day Review by Michael Durant

Rating

Since I first owned the Executive I hardly go a day without using it... the sissors, tweasers, and of course knife blade are great and I particularly like the file. It's a different cut than on most small knives. It is particularly easy to carry everywhere. It is actually flatter than the other "little" knives. It is a little longer, but just right - its nicer than the "little" knives without being bulky like the larger knives. I've given one to my children as they gone out into the world and find years later that they still have and use them. I'm buying two now to have one in standby for when I loose one. I really don't like going without it.

Approximately my 15th Ececutive knife Review by John Jones

Rating

I purchased my first in Switzerland in 1983 when I bought 5, some for gifts. I have purchased at lease 10 more as I have lost or given them away. I lost my last one last week and I am lost without it. It is a great tool and constantly used.

Used daily, almost hurts to be without Review by alt_bob

Rating

Executive owner since mid-80's. Used daily at the office, at home, and where ever I am. Open packages,setup computers, personal care, come to aid of co-workers and friends to do preceding. Having to place in baggage for air travel leaves me almost lost. This will be my fifth. Have yet to understand how they got lost. Hurt to check on my order after 7 seven days and find on back order. Thinking now I should too have ordered two.
