I have had one of these since it was first released over 10 years ago, carried it nearly every day, on long camping and trekking holidays in Peru (4mths) and Canada (3mths) plus others. For work including building sight work, fish farming, aquatics.... and other jobs. Its never rusted or sized in any way what so ever, nothing has broken and the blades/tools are still as firm as they were the day I got it, its even been used under water. I’ve had two other tools in this time both are very well known makes, and both have failed, one broke, the over never held a good edge due to poor steel. Do not over look Victorinox Swiss Tools.
