- I always have a 58mm SAK (Swiss army knife) on me.
Been using the rambler last couple weeks and it’s so much better then the classic, I can’t wait to try the other models. The rambler at $25 or less is a no brained to toss in your pocket.

The other big advantage over the classic is the orientation of the blade and scissors. On the Rambler, they point AWAY from the key ring, so it's easy to use these blades for quick cuts while the knife is still on your keychain. On the Classic, the main blade and scissors point TOWARD the key ring, so it's sort of a pain to use them quickly, especially if you have bulky car key fobs etc
@@CERTIFIEDFARTKAISER Their size makes them ideal for keychain carry. I carry my manager on my keychain. Best most useful tool I posses. Yes it does scratch up the sides but oh well. I don't carry it to look at it.
Agree 100%. This seems to be a huge oversight on the Classic. Also the file rubs against the knife blade slightly. The Rambler and Manager series got it right for sure.
I still wish they would orient the tweezers and toothpicks on the key ring side, makes it harder for them to slip out
I love the Rambler. It has almost all of the Super Tinker tools, just smaller, plus a nail file.
Just got the Rambler a few days ago, never saw this model until a week ago by chance on Ebay, it is the perfect Victorinox set up I always wanted.
I love my Rambler, it's always on my keyring and never leave my house without it. Incredibly useful. I actually got another for a spare part box of my electronics hobby too where it comes handy. Thanks for the heads up on the screwdriver, i've never thought it'd be useful for as a PH2 but now it will.
Thank you. This was exactly the video i have been searching for
Finally managed to buy it! Thanks for the recommendation Rob! :)
My favorite EDC ... On my keys 100% ... I replaced a door knob with it ... The combo tool is amazing. Nice video ... Thanks.
I agree these are a great tool Rob...I used to always carry one the SDs (the case on the clear ons alway breaks)- I shifted to carrying a Leatherman - I like the addition of the pliers especially when I travel. Thank you for a cool video :)
SAKs are brilliant. And regardless of the steel snog brigade the steel used by Victorinox holds a nice edge for edc tasks and are incredibly easy to resharpen. The tools hold into place nicely and I’ve used them more times than I care to remember on everything from opening toys to stick in yet more fresh batteries to taking off and replacing doors. Just bought my 5th...
The smaller Classic SD for $15 is a great little knife also. I use it more than my Paramilitary 2 when I'm carrying both of them.
That Phillips head works on my sunglass screws as tiny as they are. To give you a comparison I’ve also used the little flathead that fits it the corkscrew on those same screws. I’ll have to try the Rambler on larger screws I’ve never even thought to try it on bigger screws! Thanks.
Great video! SAK use to be a common passion between watch lovers. I've just found one 58mm Classic with a Spring Bar remover tool instead of the nail-file tool. Will be a nice addition to the Victorinox with a Watch Case opener that I own.
I really dig the camera and it’s zoom, works great
Opinel inox are also unique, a worthwhile addition. I have 3 Victorinox, the small one in yellow, a bartender, and a model with a saw blade.
Best feature of the combo tool: it is magnetic. Remember this when you lose a screw under some piece of forniture or a key in a manhole/draingrid
I have a rambler for more than ten years now in my pocket. It is still the perfect balance for me for the little ones of victorinox.
Senti falta de alguma coisa no rambler ? Uma caneta por exemplo ?
Was going to get the transparent one, now definitely getting the rambler would definitely use those tools👍
Use mine daily.
Random Rob just ordered it👍thanks
Rambler is available direct from Victorinox in 13 different scale colours including transparent red and transparent blue. No discount, but comes with packaging that is idea for a gift. You can also add text to front and back scales as part of the service.
Helpful information I have to ramble of and get one.
Good job, keep up the good work. He didn't "over pay," he paid for convenience. 😊 The $33 is worth the superior services that Victorinox offers anyways.😊
This is the one I've been carrying for a couple years now. It is a great small EDC knife with all the common everyday tools.
(Although, I do carry a regular sized flip blade style knife too.)
Same here. Rambler on key chain and Spyderco in corner of my pocket. Does everything I need during a "normal" day.
Senti falta de uma caneta nele ?
Great review by the way
For me the best is the ''MANAGER''. It is like a rambler + a ballpoint pen and it still remains appropriate for any pocket, because the difference between them is only 1,5mm!!
Rambler has both tweeters and toothpick
Manager has ball point and either carry tweeters or toothpick - both supplied but space for one only.
Manager Lite ball point and LED light no tweeters or toothpick
@@geraldmcmullon2465 Essa é a minha dúvida Rambler ou Manager
And for us obsessive watch the guys the short blade that comes with a lot of SAKs is brilliant for popping off spring bars to switch out your straps
I agree, the rambler is so much better than the ubiquitous classic sd, and with virtually the same footprint
🪛Got one coming. I imagine I’ll get a lot of use with that genius Phillips screw driver. (Magnetized) I can never easily find a Phillips when I need one. The little things add up. 💙 Good review. Thanks. Ps. The nail file orientation works very well closed unlike other sak’s.
If you don't like the toothpick I suggest you get the Firefly fire steel it makes these little keychain multi-tools that much better and you can take the nail file and very nicely take a metal file and make a 90° spine so you can light your ferocium rod which fits in the toothpick slot they're awesome they're making for the 91 mm the 111 mm and they make them for the SD classic keychain size
I want this to replace my old Squirt S4 just for the phillips. The flat phillips on the leatherman is very poor and can't handle much torque. It also tends to slip in larger screws. The bottle opener looks more substantial as well. This has every tool I use on my leatherman, just as good if not better in execution.
Rambler is a very good one! ❤🤗 😊
I have carried one on my key ring for over a decade. Use it almost daily!
I love ooo love this
Great review!
Great knifes but I'm just rambling on, good review.
Great review on a great tool.
I got the Classic SD on my keychain, next to my Gerber shard, that does have a bottle opener, 2 flathead and 1 Phillipshead, a wire stripper and a prytool.
Both in black and together they cost the same as the Rambler, but I still love the way SAK made that multitool.
The tinker SAK works best for me, and only a little longer, great knives
Those are 85mm right? Will be trying a few 85mm soon.
I think so, they have bigger blades which I find more useful, and the tinker has the perfect assortment of tools and things for me
It is my EDC Tool. Nice Review.
I carry my rambler around on my neck 18 hours a day.
Damn, hilarious, I just bought my first Rambler about 10 days ago on Amazon. Great upgrade over my Classic. Great minds think alike, no? 🤔
Got that right
Estou na dúvida entre o rambler e o manager.
I lost my Victorinox Huntsman given by my late grandfather when we went to a lake yesterday, aghhhh, im looking for replacement as i realized not all features are used, and I think is is a great deal. Im still a bit sad as thats like a remembrance from him
Any Victorinox you carry will remind you of him. Check out Compact, Mountaineer, Ranger, Champ and consider the Executive 74 mm. Depends upon what tools you do use. The file on the 91 mm works on metals and softer materials and still does finger nails. Scissors are so useful and you still get two blades and both can opener and bottle opener. Compact is a little odd - nail file is on the back of the multipurpose hook.
Hey Rob, appreciate the review. Maybe I missed it, but I didn’t hear any mention of the fact the blade opens away from the key ring on the Rambler vs toward the key ring on the Classic SD. Just one more plus for the Rambler, especially if you have your knife attached to your keychain together with your keys.
Isso mesmo. Você tem um Ramble ou Manager ?
@@sidneycavalcant I have the Classic SD, but if I were to replace it, I would get the Rambler. I prefer to keep it simple.
@@danielredford6746 Interessante
@@danielredford6746 Terminei comprovando o manager, mas ainda não chegou.
Great video; congra.
Bought one on eBay for $12, with $4.75 shipping. Luckily the seller was also based in Texas, so shipping should be in in a couple of days!
All of the LED flashlights will be fried, destroyed when an EMP hits them 🔦 You should ALWAYS carry an incandescent type of flashlight as a backup to your LED flashlights !
Hmmm... there's something Christoper Walken~ish about your speech pattern that's just really cool dude! 😄😆
(now that would be great "Christopher Walken~ish reviews" 😆😅😂)
I have a broken back not really wearing street clothes just sweats so i carry a sak sd on a piece of gutted paracord around my neck
Qual seria sua escolha entre o Rambler e Manager ? Vale a pena o valor maior pela caneta ?
I never could learn to hang on to the mini tweezers and tp. How about an Alox Rambler?
I modded mine with Titanium scales.
@@oliverpolden
A fine addition
Fun fact → the Phillips screwdriver is a light magnet.
THANK YOU SIR
I can't tell you how many of these small Victorinox pen knives have been confiscated from me by TSA because I constantly forget to take them off my keychain. Doh!
Will the cap lifter actually lift a cap without alot of effort?
I know it’s pretty useless, but I’d love to see if Victorinox could one day make a version of the file-SD with the ruler print on the back (probably infeasibke and no point whatsoever, but still)
Rambler alox with all the colour options of the classic would sell like hot cakes! Victorinox clearly don’t like money 🤷🏽♂️
I just bought my first Classic over a Rambler for that very reason. I liked all the color options of the Classic.
Honestly man! I don’t see why they won’t do that! The classic SD is great and all, but damn this is a great upgrade! Probably costs then a couple bucks at max
They did but for some reason stopped making them. I found some Titanium scales and modded mine so it’s even better than an Alox Rambler!
I have a couple too. I also have a Wenger .....not as good.
Victorinox bought Wenger and has been steady changing them. Now we are seeing some models share the best of both.
😊😊cool
** I stopped carrying my Leatherman 'Squirt' multi-tool because it is not strong enough as an Every Day Carry. When the springs break in the Squirt the pliers and scissors become useless ! Many people have had the springs break in their Leatherman Squirt.
⚠️ For some reason Leatherman discontinued their Squirt multi-tool.
an alox version should be perfect
I modded mine with Titanium scales. Absolutely love it!
Can that scissors cut thru braid fishing lines?
Yes victorinox makes amazing scissors
Hey, are those Canadian Vickies or Swiss?
I didn't know that, canadian?
All Victorinox are made in Switzerland
Yooper!!!!!
Can it easily go through airport security?
No. There is a no blade model that is meant for that, however it is TSA discretion to even take those. Never push your luck with TSA it’s not worth the hassle.
@@RandomRobReviews My Rambler was confiscated by TSA last week. Forgot to take it off my key chain. I researched key chain knives again and I am going to get the Rambler again. Amazon told me that I have already purchased it 3 times.
@@snowpuppy77 there is a Victorinox called the jetsetter. It's airport safe. No blade..... But tools on it can be used to cut.
Who actually opens bottles? Honest question. I haven't opened a bottle cap in 10 years. Most common yet useless tool on VSAKs next to the toothpick. But the small phillips is excellent.
We don’t have twist tops in the Uk for some reason so it’s really handy.
What's the reason to not open bottles?) Or all your bottles have twist tops?
@@vi-yar The reason is almost nothing in Canada requires it. Perhaps some craft beer but that's it.
how about modded Swiss Army Knives ?
Didn’t even know it was a thing until recently. I will be having one built or do myself. They look insane cool.

The price of this sak' doesn't make sense...The Tinker has the same tools and costs half the price. Overpriced on such tiny tool...🙄💰💸
RUBBISH BUY SOMETHING USEFUL.
Once on my keychain, game changer. Ramblers ho!
