I don't have one, but I'd buy one immediately if they'd replace the backspring phillips with a corkscrew.Wenger's tool combinations make no sense to me.
Yeah - the 2 Phillips thing is a little confusing. I have the EvoGrip S557 which is the smallest tool with a Phillips & a corkscrew that I see (along with the Evo S557).
Anybody have one of these?http://www.amazon.com/Wenger-Zermatt-Swiss-Army-Knife/dp/B0002YT5VO/ref=acc_glance_sg_ai_-2_1_tit?ie=UTF8&qid=1200313150&sr=1-51Looks to be another of those oddball SAKs with 2 Phillips drivers.Nice compliment of tools for a 4-layer knife, even though half-a-layer is taken up by a snaphook or carabiner or whatever they call it.Of late, I'm becoming more of a Wenger fan.I prefer the shorter overall length of Wengers, because they ride far more comfortably in my pocket than a full size Vic.And I've started appreciating the Wenger can opener more and more lately. Not only does it work better at opening cans, but it's a great tool for cutting tougher materials. Like plastic blister packs or cardboard packaging, so you don't have to worry as much about overpenetration.Of course locking screwdrivers are a good feature, and I've come to prefer the Wenger scissors also..
Yes, I thought I'd miss the smaller screwdriver on the can opener but it's made for those clamshell packs.

That is the blade locking system common on Wengers. It is still used on current models.
It's called a PackLock and is available on many 85mm Wenger models. Frankly, I love it. It looks like it would be awkward but it's never gotten in the way when I have used it, and I edc'ed a model with that feature for almost ten years now.Def
