it might look better in terms of functions, but when you buy one of those and start using it, you'll wish you had something with higher quality metal and build.

Agreed!
And C$10 for a Victorinox Driver is a great deal.

Whoops, yep that's the one. My brain is a month behind apparently ;)
Regardless, is the sale on yet? I just want to confirm before I head to CT to buy one or two

I bought one of these 3 years ago and it's still bloody sharp today. Well worth the money :razz:

Good knife. Got one a few years ago at this price, great to keep in the car.

+1 good knife. Light, slim, blade stays sharp a long time. Has (almost) everything you would want, and nothing you don't need. The only thing I miss is a philips head screwdriver.
I'm gonna pick up another one on Friday.

+1, poor quality knives = waste of money. The Victorianox is high quality.

I have one of these that I keep in my camera bag. I keep forgetting to remove it before travelling and it always makes it past gatecheck security at airports in Canada, USA and Europe...
.....maybe it's not metal

My Victorinox pictured below once made it through London Heathrow's security. Then I had it in La Guardia and was too scared to try going through security with it so I gave it away to someone :(

Aaaaaahhhhhh, the Victornix Soldier. a very fine knife. i have one as well. the $9.99 is not as good as the soldier, but still a very good buy (lifetime guarantee)
