Victorinox – Swiss Army Knife Excelsior

When it comes to adventure, one name stands out from the rest – the Swiss Army Knife.

Victorinox’s Swiss Army Knife first came about in 1891, when Karl Elsener invented the “Soldier’s Knife” for the Swiss military, which was followed a few years later by the Offiziermesser – the “Officer’s Knife”. They were the Swiss Army’s best kept secret…until much later, during World War II, when American GIs working with the Swiss saw the Swiss’ pocket knives in action…and wanted one for themselves! Finding offiziermesser difficult to pronounce, the Americans simply referred to them as “Swiss Army Knives”.

And that’s how Swiss Army Knives came to be known, loved, and used every day by adventurers all around the world. Handy, easy to use and packed with features, every Victorinox Swiss Army Knife is made from the finest materials – they’re built to last, just as they always have been.

If you’re not the kind of person who wants to be weighed down, the Excelsior Swiss Army Knife is the one for you. It’s the very essence of Swiss Army Knife simplicity, with a large blade and a small blade which will fit comfortably in your pocket or wallet. It’s everything you need, and nothing you don’t. Which is just the way you like it!
