Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Knife holds and edge very well razor sharp and its easy to sharpen. Great set of large scissors and phillips screwdriver.

This is my first with the new magnifying glass, and though it's now acrylic plastic and not glass, i like it a bit better because it's larger than the old ones. The magnifier is what make this sak a standout. It's got a good magnification for daily us...  Read More

I believe everyman should own one. Always one in my left pants pocket. Perfect for a backpack, car, or your desk at work.

Swiss army makes a little jewelers screwdriver that fits inside the corkscrew. Comes with a rarely-found inline phillips screwdriver and a magnifying glass.

Explorer has all the portable tools i need in my pocket. It is not a replacement of dedicated tools but is fantastic to have as it will perform for the tasks it's intended to. I wish it had a nail file.



Cons

The redesigned magnifing lens is garbage. The lens of the magnifying glass missing after light use. Very lightly used and lens is lost and gone.

Quality


As usual, the quality is excellent, the blades are sharp and hold their edge very well.


It is a high quality knife in a most compact package.


But i was never happy with the size and weight.

Price


It’s comfortable in my hand and the price was perfect!


Price: i purchased my explorer in 1993 at walmart for around $39, so the price has stayed very affordable.

Packaging/appearance


Knife has multiple functions and is really sharp right out of the box.


I really wanted to have the magnifying glass.

Competitiveness


Bought as a bday gift for my son.


I recently purchased a champion plus which has a few more tools.


I grew up with a knock off swiss army knife and hated them bc why have a multitool if it's going of phone in most of the tools.
