What could Victorinox add as a new SAK tool?

I'd like to see a potato peeler layer.

It wouldn't be the internet without people complaining.

Oh, I should probably add, all pictures are taken at the Victorinox museum in Brunnen Switzerland.

  I would like to see a 120mm or larger model with a nice flashlight built into it. A Fenix E01 would work in a large multi tool very well in my opinion. Do not want any light that uses button cells!  :rant: A nice small AAA light would work great!

There are a lot of interesting ideas in this thread, but someone will have to explain to me how a dedicated prying tool will outperform the one practically every SAK comes with already.
Simple

- Slimmer tip to easier slip it into the gap
- Profile: one side flat, the other side curved for better prying
- Nail gap.

Something like:

* If you think I have anything to do with that nice looking piece then you are overestimating me :P

This is the first time someone has actually qualified what they mean by "dedicated pry tool" in a thread I've followed. I'm not sure I want one, but at least I see where you're coming from.

The only problem I can see is bulk, but it might not even end up being the thickest tool layer out there. How much space does the Swisstool one take up? The pictures look cool.

At that length, the Victorinox spirit level is just about the most hilarious torpedo level I've ever seen -- but if it fit in the scales without adding too much thickness, displayed reasonable bulletproofness, and was resistant to extremes of heat and cold, I could get behind that kind of thing just because I love tool density.

Thanks Etherealicer! I wish they would have marketed that one. I use my SI and my EDC Explorer for food prep all the time and would love a peeler tool included.

I like that comb but I should grow a beard to use it effectively.
