The history of Victorinox dates back to 1884, when Master Cutler Karl Elsener opened a cutlery shop in Ibach, Switzerland. There, he and the cutlers union he formed produced the finest steel cutlery, finished with the now-famous proprietary edge preferred globally by professional and home cooks. In 1891, Karl supplied the Swiss Army with its standard issue Soldiers Knife, and in 1897 with the Officers Knife. In 1921, after the death of his mother, Victoria, and with the advent of stainless steel, then known as "inoxydable" and used in the production of his cutlery, Karl changed the name of the company to Victorinox.
To maintain the quality and performance of your Swiss Army Knife, it is essential to follow proper care tips. The various tools are manufactured from high-quality steel with precisely tuned features that are essential for the particular application. The steel is tempered, annealed, and polished to achieve the necessary hardness and provide optimum resistance to corrosion.
When sharpening your knife, use a whetstone at an angle of 15-20 degrees, resulting in a cutting angle of 30-40 degrees. If sharpening on a grinding wheel, always cool with plenty of water to avoid excessive temperatures and potential damage. After use, opening and closing the blades in warm water several times will allow the tools to move freely again. Once they have dried, it is recommended to apply a small drop of oil between the blade or tool shank and the spring. To optimally maintain the locking mechanism, periodically apply a drop of the recommended Swiss Army Knife Oil. Never put Swiss Army Knives in the dishwasher.
Compact, agile, and ready for any adventure, the range of Swiss Army Knives has been an icon of utility and smart design since 1897. With their durable stainless steel construction and lifetime guarantee, these knives are the perfect companions for daily adventures and make great gifts for any occasion.
