Victorinox Emergency Blade &
|
 |
The Victorinox emergency blade is found on some of the smaller 2 1/4" (58 mm) Swiss Army knives such as the Minichamp. This tool is also called the letter opener.
The emergency blade is a second small blade that is a little narrower than the regular small blade. It has a slight curvature which makes it "ride" better when opening letters. It's also a very effective tool for minor surgery such as removing a splinter or a piece of broken glass-- the tip is well designed for that kind of work, and does a much better job than the regular small blade. The emergency blade is sometimes just the perfect tool for some tasks where the regular small blade simply won't fit. We'd love to see it on a wider range of Swiss Army knives! HINT-- Many people find that a second blade is extremely useful-- you can keep one blade very sharp, and one blade dull (and then use the dull blade for tasks that would take the edge off the "good" blade). Other Letter Openers On larger Swiss Army knives, you can use the small blade as a letter opener. |
