Summary: Best price victorinox out there
Comment: For the price this is best victorinox knife out there. It has all the tools you would expect in a knife. Very nicely build and pretty sturdy.
You will treasure this for years!
Customer Rating: 
Summary: champ plus
Comment: As always, good quality you'd expect from Victorinox. Just keep in mind that this is NOT the swiss champ (which has an pair of pliers in addition to all the champ plus' functions). I actually recommend these since you have to pay a good deal more for the swiss champ. So unless the pliers are extremely important to you, I don't think it's worth the price difference.
Victorinox makes great knives. I collect knives and I notice that their knives pretty much don't ever rust (but the aluminum spacers do if left in a humid place for a LONG time). Cheap, good quality and reliable, they're perfect everyday-carry-knives. I'd recommend them over 100 dollar folders from other "high-end" companies like spyderco or benchmade (though they are a lot prettier).

Summary: good brand, hard to open
Comment: I like Swiss Army, but was suprised that it was so hard to open each items.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Good product
Comment: Very Handy. We love it. They put in a wrong Manual. The Manual says there is a Pliers. But actually, there is no Pliers on Champion Plus
Customer Rating:
Summary: Love the Swiss
Comment: I have had a Swiss Army knife in my pocket for over 30 years. This one is number 4, and even better than any I have had before. I would not leave home without it.

From the renowned company that created the Swiss Army Knife a century ago comes the Champion Plus, a complete set of tools for campers, hikers, hunters, fishers, picnic enthusiasts, and people all trades--all neatly contained in a single implement. Measuring just 3-1/2 inches long, the Champion Plus is stylishly cased in the famous red Swiss Army body that's recognized around the world. More importantly, the pocket knife contains 30 stainless-steel tools appropriate for just about any occasion. The standard camping tools include a large blade, a small blade, a corkscrew, a can opener, a bottle opener, a small screwdriver, a large screwdriver, a Phillips screwdriver, scissors, tweezers, and a toothpick. And that's just the beginning, as the Champion Plus also offers a punch reamer, multipurpose hook, wood saw, fish scaler, and hook disgorger. In short, there's no better accessory for camping, hunting, and fishing trips. Should the basic tools not cut it, the Champion Plus steps up with a host of extras, including a metal file, metal saw, fine screwdriver, mini screwdriver, and chisel scraper. Add in such tools as a ruler, nail file, nail cleaner, magnifying glass, pressurized ball point pen, straight pen, sewing eye, and key ring and you're well equipped for everything from repairing holes in tents to reading the fine print on instructions. As with all Victorinox items, the Champion Plus is made to exacting standards, with 60-plus individual parts and 450 steps going into its construction. Victorinox attends to every detail, from selecting the finest materials to performing the final inspection. In addition, each individual tool has been hardened in a different way to stand up to its designated use. Such care is unmatched, and is why the Champ series is recognized by such international experts as the New York Museum of Modern Art and the State Museum of Applied Art in Munich, both of which have selected it for their "excellence in design" collections. Outfitted with a nylon handle and an aluminum housing, the Champion Plus carries a lifetime warranty.

About Swiss Army Knives
In 1884, Swiss cutler Karl Elsener set up shop in Ibach-Schwyz, installing a waterwheel in Tobelbach Brook to run his grinding and polishing machines. Thus began what would become the international brand name Victorinox, a combination of Victoria, for Elsener's mother, and "inox," or stainless steel. Today, Victorinox produces watches, luggage, clothing, and, famously, Swiss Army Knives. The original product dates to 1897, when Elsener patented the Swiss Officer's and Sports Knife he supplied to the Swiss Army. Following World War II, American servicemen and women shopping in PX stores shortened the name to Swiss Army Knife, which lives on in English-speaking countries around the world and has become a metaphor for versatility.
