Near-perfect toolset

Victorinox quality is legendary and this is no exception. I’ll focus on my experience here: Everyone needs something different, but for me this is the closest model to what I'd call perfect. The scissors are a must-have for hygiene and all manner of cutting tasks including thread, bandages, and anything that benefits from more support during a cut than you get with the one-sided nature of a knife. The bottle opener/cap lifter is another favourite of mine. Rarely do I use it for that but as a pry tool, and as a wide flat-head screwdriver for camera stuff, it's excellent. I’ve gotten into many devices with its help. I love to double-knot my boots for hiking since single knots kept falling apart on me, but it was always a slow and painful process taking them off until I tried using the corkscrew to help with this. I’ll never go back! I don’t open much wine but the ease and speed it brings to unlacing makes it a must-have as well. Assisting my decision further was the fact that the alternative offered on some models is a Phillips driver which I know many people love but, I wouldn’t have much use for such a thing. I've yet to make use of the hook but I really wanted it as the possibilities seemed plentiful. One comment I'll make on it though is I find it nearly impossible to open without some sort of assistance, like taking the tweezers out to use as a little pry bar - something I've occasionally done on the awl as well due to the very tight spring. I'd say the "flagship" tool of the Mountaineer is the metal file, because if you don't need that, you probably have a Climber. I primarily use it for my nails actually - I find the larger size and aggressive cut vs what most nail files offer to be quite nice, and it works for other hygiene-related tasks too. I find smoothing out or taking down rough or thick areas where you might otherwise be tempted or forced to rip or cut them is cleaner and less damaging. It's incredibly easy to clean under some water too – mine still looks brand new after much use as a result. I've also used it for minor repair work on plastic that saved me from an expensive replacement purchase, and I know from videos that if the day comes, it will do a great job on wood or metal too. Overall, the Mountaineer is an excellent tool for my needs and the smallest one that offers everything I really wanted, but it’s only near-perfect. Below are some dream tweaks that would take it from 90 to 100% for me: For my purposes, the scissors offer all the knife blade I need, so I find the large and small blades a bit redundant. Dropping these would slim the tool and might make it safe for flying. Alternatively, I’d rather have a scalpel holder than a built-in blade because it’s easy and cheap to take out for flights, or to swap if it gets dull or damaged. I’ve found scalpels to also be sharper and more precise than any other blade I’ve used, meaning they’re safer and cause less collateral damage, particularly for hygiene purposes. Given the option I'd also trade the can opener for the new package opener found on the Companion, or some other hooked "pull-blade", perhaps similar to the orange peeler on the Mini Champ, as opening packages with such a tool would be the safest, easiest method, and is something we all do a lot more than opening cans these days I'm sure. I might trade the awl for the chisel found on the Ranger too.
