not as good as my REAL swiss army knife from switzerland with my name engraved in it
Victorinox IS a real Swiss Army Knife.
I once purchased a pair of black, cotton, what were advertised as "Swiss Army" surplus pants from an army surplus store. After a few washings, the black dye in the pants began to fade, turning them into more of a charcoal colour. As they faded, some dark black wording started to appear on the front of one of the legs. Eventually, it became quite clear and legible. It read, "L.A.County Jail".
mbriant: Maybe he refers to the "real" Swiss army knife model (Victorinox "Soldier"/Wenger "Swiss Army 70"). That's a nice little classic, for sure - but I'd miss the corkscrew and scissors as well as the small 2nd blade (love that for deisolating cables...).
