Wenger Genuine Swiss Army Mountaineer Serrated Pocket Knife

This knife has a long handle, making it usable for larger and smaller tasks. The grip would be comfortable for someone with big hands, as well as for others. The serrated blade is sharp, and when it or the saw blade is open, the knife becomes about 9" long. Every tool is strong and durable, making this knife a keeper way beyond it's 5 year warranty.

Despite several oilings I still can't open some of the blades. Also this is a big knife at just under 5 inches closed and 9 inches open. Even the unlock switch is difficult. This is not a good utility knife, it will find a home in the tool box and see little use.

My son a Boy Scout received this as a birthday gift. Great tool for a Scout.

This knife was purchased as a Christmas gift for a close outdoors companion, it's an excellent build, hefty in weight and solid as a rock. However the one I received was used. The Wenger box was heavily dog eared on both ends to the point that it wouldn't stay closed and had so many stock and part number stockers stuck on it, you couldn't see any signs of who made the knife ( Wenger ) or what model it is. The knife blade thumb grip area contained what appeared to be dried blood on it as did the entire can opener and both were laden with the gooey finger prints of others. The bottle opener / screw driver was heavily stained with some other material, brown crispy - sticky residue and some of that material had leaked into and dried in the recesses of the knifes blade bays. The knife blade also contained a good amount of scuffing and striations from use, not from factory sharpening. This knife had obviously been used and returned or was a well worn store sample. The knife grip itself had a sticky residue on it and you could clearly make out many sets of fingerprints in the gooey mess. I cleaned and polished it up the best I could, but I really couldn't give the knife as a Christmas present to someone I care about. So in the gear bag it will go.

Very nice Swiss quality knife from Wenger. Already have a number of pocket knives from them, this is the largest in terms of main blade which is about 3-1/2 inch long and very sharp. Interesting with a new color although I'm soooo used to the old red ones. Only problem is the locking mechanism which allows some minor movement of the blade. Otherwise I would have given this knife five stars. My son loves it too, but he will have to wait to get his later! Looking forward to many years of good use in the great outdoors.
