************************************
From the renowned company that created the Swiss Army Knife more than a century ago comes the Fisherman, a complete set of tools for anglers, campers, hikers, boy scouts, and just about everyone else. Measuring 3-1/2 inches long, the Fisherman is stylishly cased in a timeless red housing with the familiar Victorinox logo sitting alongside a small fish image. More importantly, the unit contains more than a dozen stainless-steel and plastic tools appropriate for just about any occasion. The standard tools include a large blade, a small blade, a can opener with a small screwdriver, a bottle opener with a large screwdriver and wire stripper, and a small set of scissors. That's just the beginning, however, as the Fisherman also includes a fish scaler with a hook disgorger and ruler, making the tool a handy companion on fishing trips. The Fisherman rounds out its tool set with a reamer with a sewing eye, a Phillips screwdriver, a hook, a toothpick, tweezers, and a key ring.

As with all Victorinox items, the Fisherman is made to exacting standards, with dozens of individual parts and hundreds of steps going into its construction. Victorinox attends to every detail, from selecting the finest materials to performing the final inspection. In addition, each individual tool has been hardened in a different way to stand up to its designated use. Outfitted with a plastic housing, the Fisherman carries a lifetime warranty.

About Swiss Army Knives
In 1884, Swiss cutler Karl Elsener set up shop in Ibach-Schwyz, installing a waterwheel in Tobelbach Brook to run his grinding and polishing machines. Thus began what would become the international brand name Victorinox, a combination of Victoria, for Elsener's mother, and "inox," or stainless steel. Today, Victorinox produces watches, luggage, clothing, and, famously, Swiss Army Knives. The original product dates to 1897, when Elsener patented the Swiss Officer's and Sports Knife he supplied to the Swiss Army. Following World War II, American servicemen and women shopping in PX stores shortened the name to Swiss Army Knife, which lives on in English-speaking countries around the world and has become a metaphor for versatility.
