- I have owned this knife for 5 years since I purchased it in Switzerland. I think it is the handiest small knife they make. I have since that time casually looked for a replacement knowing that eventually it would break and was surprised that it was hard to find. Well the spring for the scissors has broken and thanks to the internet I've found one. Let me comment about some of the reviews. The knife blade and screw driver are close to the key ring and if you plan to use them a lot you need a differant knife. This design makes the light, pen and scissors easier to use. This is not a replacement for a pen, light or scissors for that matter it is to be used when they are not available. I carry this knife for just that purpose and have been saved quite a few times when I've needed a pen or a light in some tight places. I guess the same thing can be said for the big multibladed knives but this knife is only 2 1/2 inches long and easy to carry. It is so unobtrusive that I've almost forgot to put it in my luggage at the airport.

- Swiss Army Sig II pocket knife
- I received the knife a few days after the order, which I think is very commendable, considering the Christmas rush. However, the pen on the knife didn't work, which mustr be a quality problem with the mfr. I assume they don't check every one.

- not practical
- i bought this knife for my husband for a christmas gift. at first he was thrilled to get a new one. upon putting the knife on his key ring and trying to use it, he noticed that the blade opens toward the key chain, making it almost impossible (and very uncomfortable) to use. He had to buy another knife that opened the opposite way. He did, however, like the other features, namely the light and the pen.

- A wonderful pocket knife with pen to write with inside
- My husband and his friend likes to hike and one day he and his friend met some people out of state--they wanted to share email address---no one had a pen/pencil so my husband's friend pulls out his pocket knife and inside it is a pen to write with. Everyone was so excited to know there is a swiss army signature with a pen to write with inside.
My husband looked everyone where in stores for this same knife set cause he wanted one just like it---could not find it so I did some searching on the net and bought it for his Christmas gift---he was so excited to receive it on Christmas morning.

- A Must Have
- As an engineer this item is quite simply a requirement. The pen is the feature that makes this one special. So many times I am somewhere and want to make some notes. I reach for this knife and its handy pen. Much easier than trying to remember the price of something in the store to compare it to the price on Amazon. Of course the knife and scissors come in handy often also. The light is dim but works well in near total darkness. I have used it to work on the computer and read a star map on a dark night. This knife is highly recommended. I used the screw driver the other day to help a woman who had broken her glasses -she was more than impressed that I had a screwdriver handy.
The only problem is that I want to take it with me all the time and you can't fly with it. The one I have now is my second. I lost the first to TSA at the airport after having mailed it back once for $10. You must rememeber to leave it home when you fly or you will be sad when turning to over to the Feds. - 2006-03-15, 2 of 2 people found this review helpful, Rated:
