The high polish on a SwissTool keeps moisture from forming in microscopic pockets in the metal, so it doesn't have the opportunity to oxidize (rust) like some others will.  Duncan is a lifeboat rescue guy, and this is why (well one of the reasons why!) he swears by the SwissTools.  They resist rust as if they were made from titanium or something!

Has anyone done a rust test on a Swisstool? You've got to be able to make it rust somehow! :D

I think there have been a few attempts, but they seemed somewhat unsuccessful as far as I know.
