Welcome aboard! You've got the basics right, in that at the highest level, the options are Swiss Tool (larger) or Swiss Tool Spirit (smaller, and often just referred to as the Spirit).There actually are not that many models, and they follow a consistent nomenclature...Currently on the Victorinox website:There are four Swiss Tool models listed:Swiss Tool BS - Note this model features both a plain edge blade and a serrated edge blade, with a black oxide finish and NO scissors.Swiss Tool X - This model has scissors in place of the serrated edge blade found on the previous model, and a polished finish.Swiss Tool X Plus - Simply a Swiss Tool X, with a kit that includes a bit wrench, bits, and corkscrewSwiss Tool X Plus Ratchet - Simply a Swiss Tool X, with a kit that includes a ratcheting bit wrench, bits, and corkscrewThere are five Swiss Tool Spirit models listed:Swiss Tool Spirit X - Note that this model features a plain edge spear point blade, with a polished finish.Swiss Tool Spirit XBS - Simply a Spirit X with a black oxide finishSwiss Tool Spirit XC - This model has a serrated sheepsfoot blade in place of the plain edge spear point blade found on the Spirit X. Polished finish.Swiss Tool Spirit XC Plus - Simply a Spirit XC, with a kit that includes a bit wrench, bits, and corkscrewSwiss Tool Spirit XC Plus Ratchet - Simply a Spirit XC, with a kit that includes a ratcheting bit wrench, bits, and corkscrew
