I had seen this knife in Outside Magazine. I was so excited to finally get it. I love the feel and new look. It will always be at my side when I am fly fishing.
A Winner! February 6, 2010

I bought this as a replacement for use on my key chain and was surprised by the size on receiving it from amazon (love amazon prime) as was expecting the shorter, lighter, smaller pocket knife that I've used for years. However, this knife is a knock out! Very well balanced, functional product design that looks like it could be in a museum, and locking main blade and screwdriver blade that significantly enhance functionality. I am going to try to keep this on my daily key chain to see if it works (or if it is too big) but either way this is a winner of a knife!
 doesn't look like what was on the manual January 24, 2010

my main gripe is that the knife does NOT look like the figure in the manual, it was missing a switch to pull back the knife. doesn't look any special from the older version.
Good item. January 3, 2010

The Victorinox Soldier knife has most of what would ever be needed in a knife except for a short blade. This was purchased as a gift for my son and this ended up being his favorite gift. I also had his name laser engraved on the blade which made it more difficult to lose. All in all, a good purchase.
Best Swiss Knife Yet? December 15, 2009

Great little knife. I've had a hundred folding knives and no one was ever used more than the black Tinker I picked up at a pawn shop for a dollar all becuase it had a phillips head screwdriver instead of the leather punch. Immediately I thought "Eureka! they finally put somthing useful on the back of one of these things". However, all greatness is fleeting and after breaking the tip off the blade of my Tinker I was resolved to find a better pocket knife.
The Standard Issue might be a little big for an every day pocket knife but it works great on the jobsite/campsite. The grip is wide and sure feeling. A Swiss knife an American male can hold with all five fingers of his hand is a revolution in and of itself. Also, the locking blade makes working a little safer and can easily be disengaged and folded up with one hand. The serrated blade is a little more difficult to sharpen but the steel holds an edge well and I haven't had to put it on the bench yet in 3 months of moderate use.
Most importantly, the phillips head on the back. I can't quantify the value of that little bit, it has saved the day countless times and I would never carry another pocket/truck/jobsite/campsite knife with out one. Here's hoping someone at Victorinox sees this and they'll get rid of that silly leather punch (for all the leatherworking we do in this millenium, I don't even think my shoes or belt are made out of real leather anymore).
