Victorinox Swiss Army Manager Pocket Knife

I owned one of the original models of this tool, with the red light LED, and I have carried it daily for over ten years. It’s the most useful tool I own, because it’s the only one small enough to always be with me. The precision Phillips screwdriver is awesome for remote control and other tiny battery bay screws.The small knife is sharp and perfect for opening boxes or envelopes. The tiny self-sharpening scissors can cut nose hairs, paper, small wires, and whatever else needs precision cutting.The small flat screwdriver/smooth file is great for other light jobs, and who can forget the bottle opener! It takes some practice to line up, but you can open any beer or other bottlecap with this tool!On top of that, the lifesaver of all - the pen. Yes, it’s blue (come on, nobody’s perfect), and the replacement pressurized ink cartridges are also blue, unfortunately. But that little pen has enabled me to sign more documents, take more notes, and do more writing in a pinch than any other pen.The LED light is a useful feature, but be sure to keep extra batteries. The new white light LED in this model is far brighter and uses a slightly larger watch battery than the older version. The light is actually bright enough to be useful when searching for a key hole, or looking for where you dropped your phone.I cannot stress enough the benefit of a pen/knife/bottle opener/scissors/screwdrivers/light which you can always have with you, regardless of how you’re dressed.Buy two!!!

I enjoy and collect several multitools. In the past, I used a Leatherman Micra on my keychain. While my opinion of it hasn't changed (it's a great tool), the victorinox midnight manager replaced it, and is now the one that actually goes on my keychain.So reasons for switching?1. Weight. The Victorinox Midnight Manager weighs just over one ounce; 31 grams / 1.1 ounces to be specific. For comparison, the Leatherman Micra weighs 51 grams / 1.8 ounces, and the even lighter leatherman Style CS weighs 41 grams / 1.4 ounces. The VMM is ultra light, and you can tell the difference.2. I absolutely love the built in LED light. It's white, bright, and well integrated. The button is located under the victorninox logo, which is physically etched onto the tool, making it VERY easy to find in the dark. You won't even have to think about it. Also, it might sound strange, but the tactile click it produces is quite satisfying. So much that I end up pressing it often when there's no need, haha.Unlike most cheap keychain lights, with exposed LED bulbs, the VMM bulb is recessed into and flush with the casing. No more prone to being accidentally scratched or dinged in this position. Additionally, it's much more pleasant and ergonomic to use a flashlight of this size and shape than the tiny button-style ones you see on supermarket checkout shelves.It uses a replaceable 389 1130W button battery; I've replaced mine easily without any trouble.3. I enjoy having a REAL phillips screwdriver, as opposed to the flat, semi-phillips on leatherman tools. Don't get me wrong, those get the job done... for the most part. However, in my experience, a truly 4-way screwdriver just works better. It also features a bottle opener and wire-stripper.4. A pen. How many times do you just need a pen? This thing is small, just works, and easy to access when you need it. The mechanism that slides it out is simple enough, but cleverly uses sideways-detents to keep it from sliding out accidentally. The pen is removable and refillable.The whole tool is polished, literally and figuratively. The small knife is sharp and works just like you'd expect. The nail file is robust and offers a flat screwdriver tip. The scissors, while not the same size and scope as the integrated, collapsible ones on leatherman tools (which I admittedly do like), are nonetheless surprisingly effective - smooth, sharp cutting, with close to perfect springy resistance. All the fingernail slots (used for pulling the tools out) are well-placed.These things look slick. I got mine in blue / sapphire. The only negative here, which is minor, is that the casing will gather light scratches over time. This bothered me more at first; now that I've had it over a year, it turns out they don't accumulate in a way that makes a real noticeable difference. Looks terrific, even after a year.Nothing is perfect, but this comes close. All the tools are useful, including some key features (← see what I did there?) that few other multitools have, while weighing less. Nothing feels out of place or incorrectly implemented.Well recommended. 5 stars.

I bought a Swiss Army Signature Lite a few months ago and found myself using it all the time. Really loved it but it was missing something. A really good Phillips screwdriver. I have two kids and anyone that has kids these days will find themselves working on toys cutting off strings or tags on clothes writing something down or needing to replace batteries and most of the compartments these days are screwed shut so finding myself in need and without said screwdriver I had take to carrying a eyeglass screwdriver around with me. One night I was "window shopping" on Amazon and saw this thing and thought to myself what could be better it has everything I need in one tiny little package. So I ordered it and haven't been disappointed since. I gave the Signature lite to my son and he couldn't be happier as well. My main thing is it's always there and always usefu. It's compact full of functions and looks great too. So for me the only con is the price I guess. Quality costs money I get that but almost forty bucks was a bit much in my opinion. I bought a victorinox huntsman that was half that in price that was larger and had more functions. So it would have been nice for this to be comparable in price. Still if I lose this one I will probably suck it up and get another since I use it so much.

Perfect. Several times when I have had to "Please sign here" and you are in a line and somebody else has the only pen and I would use this and Somebody will comment , "Hey does that penknife actually have a pen ?" I say yes it does and a flashlight as well , they always want to know were to get one. The only thing I had found lacking was when I had to tighten a screw , or risk losing it , that I would have to hold the nail file at an angle to tighten a Philips screw , but this model comes with an extra blade Philips screw driver and bottle opener.

La utilizo a diario, como llavero, aunque eso se me había ocurrido hasta después de que la recibí. Poseo otra navaja, de Victorinox también, una RangerGrip 79, que es de 130 mm, y me encuentro utilizando más seguido la pequeña (ésta), su portabilidad se lleva el premio. Un gran producto por los $580 que pagué. Recomendada.

Tamaño practico para traerla en el bolsillo, y con su led la hace dispensable más aún.

had many Victorinox knifes before and the craftsmanship is as great as before

Es una navaja muy práctica para traerla en el llavero junto con tus llaves, verdaderamente recomendable, olvidarás que la cargas hasta que la necesites.

No encuentro donde me llego, no se en que paquete venia, no la tengo, me pueden ayudar por favor? Gracias

Muy buena navaja pequeña se lleva en cualquier bolsillo y fácil de usar y practica para todo uso excelente adquisición

Me gusto el tamaño
