Master Cutler Hans Meister, 1991
on: September 14, 2012, 10:38:08 AM
Does anybody know anything about this "Swiss Army Knife"?
All I know is that "The Guinness Book of Records recognizes a unique 314-blade Swiss Army-style knife made in 1991 by Master Cutler Hans Meister as the world's largest penknife, weighing 11 pounds." (Wikipedia)

Don't tell me that somebody here owns one!

Does the fact I inspected pictured tools for usability make me a disturbed person? :)

(Look at the saws, for instance, apart from the ergonomics of a knife the size of a minivan, the grind looks pretty useless.)

Incredibly impressive workmanship, though. Something like that is incredibly challenging to build!

It wasn't intented to be usable, I suspect. Probably the target was the Guiness Record. Nice sideplates though.

I saw this knife in an exhibition called "Swiss Army Knife - A tool that's become an icon" 2010 in Zürich.

I think I see an interesting bottle opener in the middle of the knife on the left combined with a screw driver and such.
