This is one of the most classic of Vic Swiss knives. I have owned several of them over the last few decades. They hold an edge well and resharpen easily. This knife can be carried in virtually any environment without being considered threatening. It has the perfect blend of tools that one could imagine using with the exception of the awl. It does not have that horrible cork screw either!

You could carry this knife anywhere at anytime except of course airplanes and schools. It goes well on a key chain if it is not already burdened with numerous other gadgets.

I carry one in the front pouch of my survival knife sheath and have an extra in my car.

Ratings are relative to price paid.

As a general purpose EDC knife you cant beat the Vic Tinker. It is small enough to carry every day without notice. It is cheap enough for anyone to buy. The fit and finish is perfect. The materials are superb for the price paid. The blade takes a great edge and holds it adequately. The amount of work that can be done with a Tinker is amazing. You will use every tool on this knife. The quality/ price ratio is created to satisfy every customer beyond their expectations. There is not much more to say, it is simple and it gets the job with spartan simplicity.
