Cease and desist, Reinier! Google Inc. has a similar patent pending. I hear they intend to launch the Google Glasses Offline Edition soon.

I have a feeling with all the laughter on this post that it must be a joke. If so that sucks bad. I’ve been dreaming of a Victorinox like the Leatherman Squirts for ever. :-(

You might be on to something... When one of the resident jokers on this forum looks at promotional material which nobody else can find to announce the Swisstool Phantom, a certain amount of scepticism seems to be in order :)

After further consideration, I'm afraid the name of "Phantom" would be too coincidental for it not to be a joke, though it would sort of fit with the theme of the Spirit.

Assuming it is a joke, however:
  • Reinier should not play with our emotions like that  :twak:
  • Victorinox should get to work on making it a reality  :pok:

    Seriously, we need a Juice-sized, as well a Micra-size SwissTool variant. Non-locking of course too. I find myself leaning more towards tools this size these days. I love my SwissTool, and it can usually take on stuff even my Leathermans shouldn't be used on, but it's just too darn big and heavy.

    Amazing how fast news travels. You probably got the last one! I see it’s not on the Vic site, so it must’ve sold out already!

    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

    I looked everywhere....as of right now I can't find a single link to any info on this...and it would be amazing...I won't lie

    Why they couldn't make it at least Juice size?! I have enough Leatherman PS4 and P4 in this size.
    What do you think?
