Mountaineer

The Victorinox Mountaineer is the Huntsman with three more tools — and the right three for serious outdoor use. The nail file implement on the Mountaineer is not a standard file: it combines a nail file, nail cleaner, a fine metal file, and a metal saw into a single multi-function tool. Add scissors, a multipurpose hook, and the full Huntsman tool set, and you have 18 tools in the standard 91mm, ABS/Cellidor frame. Made in Switzerland, lifetime warranty.

• Nail file with metal saw, metal file, and nail cleaner — four functions in one implement. The metal saw cuts metal wire, bolts, and small fastenings cleanly; the metal file dresses rough edges, removes burrs, and shapes metal or hard plastic where a blade can't; the nail file and cleaner cover personal use. It's the implement most people overlook on the Mountaineer — and the one that makes the biggest functional difference over the Huntsman.
• Scissors — spring-loaded, full stainless steel; precise enough for first aid, sail repair, or tape work in the field.
• Multipurpose hook — a lashing and parcel carrier hook for securing loads, hanging a bag, or improvising a cord tensioner.
• Wood saw — full-length serrated saw for cutting branches, preparing kindling, or clearing trail obstacles.
• Corkscrew — helix corkscrew that draws corks cleanly; also compatible with the Victorinox bit kit when used as a flexible shaft driver.
• Large and small blade — both ground and finished in Switzerland in high-grade stainless steel.
• Can opener with 3mm screwdriver — the 3mm tip handles small fasteners throughout.
• Bottle opener with 6mm screwdriver and wire stripper — three functions in one tool.
• Reamer, punch and sewing awl — pierces leather, canvas, and webbing; threaded tip for sewing.
• Tweezers and toothpick — both stored in the handle, removable and replaceable.
• Key ring — clips to a pack, keychain, or belt loop D-ring.
• Made in Switzerland — Lifetime Warranty — every Victorinox product is covered by a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects.
