Victorinox SwissTool Phantom announced
on: March 26, 2021, 09:09:21 AM
At the beginning of Q2 of this year Victorinox will finally expand the SwissTool family with a keychain-sized tool! The SwissTool Phantom.
Looking at the promotional material it seems there will be at least two versions (one with a metal file, one with scissors, possibly more), both available in stainless steel and BO finish. Length is probably about 70 or 80 mm. Needle-nose pliers (small ones, obviously, but they look useful).
I'm really excited, I've been dreaming about a small Leatherman Micra sized multifool made by Victorinox for years!

:ahhh

Reinier, I believe youve mentioned 70 mm, not cm 🧐

Very interesting, but...

7-8 cms sound a bit too big for a keychain tool, with that size it's not even fifth pocket range, at least for me. To me a keychain tool is between 5-6 cms, the Classic family, or something like a Micra or Squirt, but even Boker's Mini Tech Tools are just a hair above 6 cm.  :think:

We're talking about outside accessible tools, right?

jnoxyd already brought up Bear Jaws, but this sounds more like SOG's PowerPint to me.

Very much looking forward for further detaails.

Don't worry about that and just be thankful Mr. Reinier Elsener is sharing this information with us.

I’m excited!  I’ve been hoping for this for quite a while.   IMO, if it’s closer to 70mm, that’s a reasonable key chain tool size.  If closer to 80mm, a bit big for a key chain, but very pocketable.
