Made by Andrea, loved by us
Designer Andrea García Peña loves the artistic side of her job. Learning the language of a brand in terms of colors, fonts and textures and applying them to a design is what drives her.
Andrea also loves our brand. So much so that she jumped at the chance to enter the Victorinox Limited Edition Design Contest – winning the Patterns of the World edition with her tie-dye motif. The judges of the contest – our fans around the globe – were inspired by its colorful, psychedelic style. It’s now one of ten designs on our Classic Limited Edition 2021 pocket knives.
“After many years designing, I still think “I DID THAT” when I see my work in use.”
Andrea García Peña
Designer, Querétaro
As a mechanic, social worker and nature educator, Felix Immler teaches kids and their adults how to safely handle a pocket knife. His very popular hands-on courses for Victorinox mix making toys out of things found in a forest with wilderness and survival techniques. Felix’s YouTube videos also show how a pocket knife can turn a bored kid into an energized one.
Felix is definitely one of our biggest fans. Inspired at age eight by a Huntsman pocket knife, he’s since been able to combine his love for the Swiss Army Knife and the outdoors with his commitment to teaching kids.
“It inspires me to wonder. And wander.”
Felix Immler
Pocket Knife Training Instructor, St-Margarethen

Made by Pierre, loved by you
Olfactory Artistic Director Pierre Aulas is the creative brain behind our range of fragrances. When we decide to create a new scent, he listens to our vision for what we want. Then he converts those ideas into an olfactive brief that will spark the perfumer’s creativity.
For our 2020 fragrance re-launch, for example, we told Pierre we’d like a fragrance that evoked a sense of strength, mountain freshness and adventure. Pierre translated this into “mineral, masculine, fresh and very textured”. He then briefed the perfumer, who was inspired to create the elegant, strong and authentic fragrance Swiss Army Rock, which is part of our new Signature Collection.
“Quality has a distinct aroma. I bottle it.”
Pierre Aulas Olfactory Director, Paris
