Great Post and Great Pictures. The X tool now serves as my background.Question: The chisel/crate opener on my spirit has an extra beveled cutting edge than the one on my xtool. I find the newer Spirit tool more handy. Do the newer Swisstools have the corner ground blade.17Chap
Sorry for my bad English
So how about the black swiss tool? Did it come in all those configurations or just one??
Thank you for the thread ! Up till now I was a very confused puppy . Sadly my Swisstool was sent to Iraq , must get another ! Spirits are much easier to understand !Chris
My wish: Swisstool model with the 4 big blades: PE blade, serrated blade, file, and saw (like the standard model) but lose the scraper/crate opener and replace it with a small scissors. Kinda like a LM Charge. This shouldn't be too difficult or costly to build.
one of our new members (bdws1975) showed me something today, Victorinox calls the Spirit, the Swisstool Spirit, isn't that confusing?it's not another model of the Swisstool, but a whole different animal. Eye's confused

Eye's confused I suppose the way to look at it (and this may only make sense to me ) is that the Spirit is a different form of the Swisstool rather than a completely new one.
You can also buy a Plus model which has a wrench as well as a 'plus ratchet' model which has a ratchet included. The Spirit is the same as the standard one though.
