SwissTool X is here!
on: May 30, 2019, 08:09:20 PM
The mail carrier brought my SwissTool X today. :mail: :woohoo:

When the SwissTool first came out I was a Victorinox Dealer, so I have had an original SwissTool all these years, so i decided I needed try the newer Swisstool with the beefier plier head,plier jaws reversed, and the newer metal saw.

I also got a SwissTool Spirit X a few days ago.

I must say I am very impressed with both the Spirit X and the SwissTool X in terms of looks, feel, and quality.

They both are very solid feeling tools and all the tools open and close smoothly and lock up solid.

I can usually find at least one tool on a plier-based multi that I don't care for. Every tool on the Spirit X and the SwissTool X has been designed perfectly for the job it was intended for.

Even the smaller scissors on my Spirit X work fine as long as you gently push forward on them while cutting

Here are some pictures with my Original SwissTool, SwissTool X, and SwissTool Spirit X.

That's a nice group of multitools, Vicman!  :like:

I am just in love with the larger SwissTool pliers head myself. It makes the tool look like it is supposed to. I have always thought the OG SwissTool looked funny with those big squared handles and the smaller pliers head. The newer ones are nearly perfect in proportion. :)

I love the larger pliers head too! I should have gotten one sooner. It is a very solid feeling tool. :D

Both it and my SwissTool Spirit X will be users!

Just a small personal observation.  ...........I would not be at all surprised that when God created the Earth & the heavens, that the SwissChamp was the tool he used. .............. :hatsoff:

Nice collection VICMAN and thank you for sharing with us.

I notice you have attached a lanyard to all your Swisstools to the middle section of the handles. You may wish to check out an alternative method using the end of the handles as attachment point instead. I got this idea from another forum member here and I find the lanyard hangs more natural this way for me. :cheers:
