Got my Swiss Tool X. Might have an issue?

on: August 27, 2011, 08:52:34 AM

Well I was very happy to receive my Swiss Tool X and when I opened up the pliers the first thing I noticed is a slight amount of play in the Pliers heads or wobble as you might describe it.

Does anyone have experience with this in there Swiss Tool? Should I be concerned? Besides that I am very pleased but it is my first Victorinox Swiss Tool and I am a bit disappointed with that aspect.

I've had a couple of Swisstools and Spirits, and all of them had a little bit of play in the pliers head.

Its quite normal for Swisstools and it won't get any worse . Enjoy it , they are a fine multitool .

Just a quick question. What model Swiss Tool is this? Is it just known as the Swiss Tool?
