Why The Victorinox Synergy Is The Most Controversial Swiss Army Knife
Published: 1 day ago
Victorinox just broke 140 years of tradition with the Synergy - their first locking blade on a 93mm Swiss Army Knife. After reviewing over 1,000 traditional pocket knives, I'm giving you the honest truth about this controversial modern EDC knife.
In this review, I cover the good (bombproof lock mechanism and Victorinox quality tools), the bad (clip durability concerns and debris issues), and the ugly (does this still feel like a real Swiss Army Knife?).
If you're a traditional collector or modern EDC enthusiast trying to decide if the Synergy is worth it, this 7-minute review will give you everything you need to know.
