Summary: Awesome
Comment: I have 5 gadget knives; 4 of them are Victorinox. This one is wonderful. I keep it in my purse since it is so light weight and the shape makes it easy to fit anywhere. I have found many occasions to use it. The scissors are perfect for small items, the knife is perfect for small jobs like opeing letters and cutting plastic (even the tough plastic on toy packages), I could go on. A wonderful tool! One of my favorites!

Summary: A Must-Have
Comment: Always have to have one of these - fits in the handbag & great for emergencies
Customer Rating:
Summary: Leave blade when flying
Comment: I always carry a small "classic" knife. But when on an airplane, that is impossible. The closest useful substitute is this card with the blade left home. It still has the scissors, toothpick, and tweezers which are very useful.

Summary: Great light weight pocket tool. Not meant to be a Leatherman.
Comment: The SwissCard isn't perfect, but overall it's a great gadget to have around. I also have a tiny leatherman, which is fine, and certainly beefier - it depends on how minimalist you want to get.
The SwissCard is really handy in size, it will fit anywhere a credit card would. I use mine primarily in my knitting bag (yes, the knitting bag gets a lot of use). Everyone comments on it, and for several years I've used it frequently. The scissors have stayed sharp, as has the knife. The pen is the size of a skinny ball point pen refill and 3 inches long, which is not great for correspondence but when you need a pen it works just great. The tweezers are standard Swiss Army Knife tweezers, as is the toothpick. The nailfile is handy and sturdy enough to actually use. There is also a straight pin. I suppose it could be handy, if for no other reason than to reset a clock or eject a stuck CD.
I really like this tool, but I got it as swag (for free). 90% of the use for me is the scissors. Still - for the knitter or crocheter it's a nice gift. I find it to be plenty sturdy. (If your knitter or crocheter is also a fix-it person, you might think about moving up to a swiss army knife though - get the one with a corkscrew).

Summary: Good Stuff
Comment: Exactly as described. A great item for pocket or purse. The only improvement would be to get the model with the LED light.

Editorial Reviews:
|
The engineers at VICTORINOX - given the unlikely task of wedding a pocket knife and a credit card - hit upon a truly useful product that will prove invaluable time and again, without adding the weight and mass of a Swiss Army type knife to your personal daily load. This Translucent Ruby SwissCard measures a mere 8.2 cm by 5.5 cm, and weighs only 25.5 grams. Easily carried in your wallet, personal organizer or purse, the SwissCard keeps a judicious selection of important tools ready at hand, including letter opener, scissors, straight pin, nail file, screwdriver, tweezers, toothpick, ballpoint pen, ruler (centimeters and inches)
