MTech USA Two-Tone vs Victorinox Swiss Army Knife Swiss Champ

I would go so far as to say the cheap, old-style ones with tubular steel handle would be better, IF they have a better sheath. It comes with a usable factory edge. The grip is good, but not hand-filling for a man.

I would recommend the purchase of the applicable leather sheath. Although the knife is not excessively heavy it is a little bulky and more suited to belt carry for EDC use.

Hey guys, what's going on, i wanted to do a review and show you, the uh, m-tec usa knife that i have so it looks like up closer. You can see that um. ...

This leather case has a belt loop, rather than a clip. Before I ordered this pouch, I read a number of the many great reviews on Amazon. One of the reviewers, "Tool Collector," noted that the SwissChamp was a tight fit in this case, and that the case was made of dry stiff leather. "Tool Collector" suggested using Neatsfoot Oil to soften the leather of this case

Not only that, it came slightly bent. To go into further detail, the blade on this hatchet is ground at much too aggressive of an angle, meaning that it doesn't bite into the wood at all, it just kind of bounces out of the cut. Furthering that problem, the head is way too thick to get a less aggressive grind on it without removing a ton of material. Another problem is that it's way too heavy, making it feel overly clumsy in the hand, and that's only exacerbated by the fact that it's bent just ever so slightly, so your cuts will almost never land how you want them too

but I think the scales are going to be a problem over time no matter how you carry it.

SO Close to Perfection... For the Price, Size & Weight, this was a Beautiful Purchase ! After studying the item for several days and debating its usefulness for splicing/grafting trees and trimming them, I went ahead and made the buy

I mean come on Victorinox, you make basically everything out of quality constructed stainless steel but go cheap there? I would gladly have paid a little extra to get the magnifying glass holder made of stainless. Oh well, hope I don't break it. And (2:) The Price. I paid at the time about $73 which is a lot but to be honest, even though you get a lot of functions, it seems a bit steep

The price was cheap enough so if I lose it or have to throw it away, no great loss. It's light weight and the cover is nice enough. Durability.

As that utters the tool useless if they break. You can work with it, but not long afterwords. My latest is the leatherman wave due to these problems. UPDATE: I dont use this anymore as the scales broke off and the knife bent a little
