Felix's hook tool video czcams.com/video/srbipWJYOGM/video.html
ah yes forgot to do this!
Thanks bud
This guy just made me feel like the hook is the best tool ever hahaha.
Felix’s channel is the bomb. Most of the stuff he does you can do with the lower end SAKs. As long as you have a saw, you’ll have a one-tool option to make his projects. I first saw him on Tarro’s channel when he was carving a dinner fork in about three minutes with his SAK. czcams.com/users/FelixImmler
I wish Victorinox would do a “build your own” type configurator. Choose your size, scale color, and an option of the tools that would fit in your selection. Mix and match the perfect knife. I’d pay a premium for it!
So would everyone. But then you lose a lot of the charm of picking a specific model with a specific name and a specific use-case and a specific history. There's a lot of love for Swisschamps and Compacts and Pioneers and Classics and Jetsetters and Climbers and Tinkers. We'd lose all that if everyone was buying Custom 91mm #43894121XKFTWDD* instead.
It'd be great to choose tools or even just layers but I suspect the premium would have to be pretty huge.
@@marmite8959 It would be cool though to be able to have a custom one that's exactly fitted to your needs. But usually there are models that are very close. The Fieldmaster or Tinker Deluxe are my favorites I think.
Join "Custom SAK Group" more than enough people can do it in there for you. I own about 30 custom Victorinox, some with Scalpel mods, dragonskin/Nebula Damascus scales. If you look at the design and construction of the Victorinox it is extremely easy to modify.
🤯
Been rocking a cybertool 34 for almost 15 years now. Have built many desktop PCs with it.
One tiny correction in case anyone is curious: the Torx bits Cybertools come with are T8, T10, and T15. The body/clip screws on most knives are going to be T6, but to get a Victorinox that comes with that you'll need to one of the 15 layer ones with a second bit driver like the XAVT or XXLT.
T6 is indeed a rare find in any kits. Especially outside the USA.
True
I've got one when they where introduced. It was known as Cybertool 34 then. One of my favorite knifes.
I love the parcel hook! If you ever have to assemble or disassemble a piece of equipment that uses loaded springs, the hook is a life saver. And it can hold down the victorinox pen cartridge to turn your knife into a pen handle. Parcel hook for life!
I've never used the hook on my super tinker lol
I'm pretty sure no other single source has ever caused my wife to annoyedly ask me "WHAT ARE YOU WATCHING AND WHY ARE YOU LAUGHING SO HARD?" quite so many times as your channel. I came for the knives but definitely stayed for the humor and personality. Good stuff, and thanks!
I watched Felix's video about the hook and then one day, my bike chain fell off. And for the first time in my life, I managed to put the chain back on the sprocket without getting my hands dirty.
We love you because you are just this side of insane. Like the rest of us. Thank you for another totally awesome video. It made my Cybertool quite turgid.
My favorite. Been carrying one since the 90s.
I used to sneer at Victorinox since they're not really built for thrashing through the apocalypse but more for a sort of gentlemanly charming tinkering and such. I only had a Mechanic, a discontinued model from 20 years ago that was a Christmas gift from my Grandpa when I was kid. Kept it in pretty good shape since it was my "good one" vs all the garbage knockoffs I grew up with. I recently went through an obsession and since I'm a knife nut my SAK collection went from 1 to probably 20 or so in a very short time. They're so much fun, definitely a required part of any knife collection.
When a knife has "cyber" in the name, that's the kind of indicator of quality that really speaks to me
I frequently stay in extended stay hotels when on the road for work (the ones with the little kitchenette), and the Victorinox can opener works better than the horrific, bent and rusted abomination the hotel usually provides. One of my most used tools.
Also, for the bottle opener: local beer. At least in the US, most craft beer is not twist to open.
I carry mine in the watch pocket of my jeans, it fits perfectly. I also replaced the toothpick with one of the ferro rods made for the SAK, if forced to choose between the toothpick and tweezers I’d rather have the tweezers. I love it though, people who have never really appreciated Swiss Army knives should closely study one side by side with a modern multitool from Gerber/SOG/Leatherman. One thing you notice is how smooth and refined the victorinox is, when closed there’s absolutely no sharp edges or pinch points. I like my leathermans but the design experience victorinox has refined over the decades is barely matched.
In the US most wine even $10 bottles have corks, it’s very much a useful tool here. Although trying to pull one out with a multi-tool is entirely another matter. I also use the bottle opener as most craft brews here don’t have twist offs. Really neat little tool!
For me, the corkscrew at least holds the eye-glass tool (or since more recently, the sim-card ejector tool), far more useful as the phillips with that fairly weak spring (especially in the CyberTool).
I regularly use the can opener on my 30 or so year old Spartan. Usually just for tins without a ring pull but especially useful when dealing with Fray Bentos pie tins. Cheers! :)
Fray Bentos pies...food of the Gods my friend.
They work on Fray Bentos pie tins when some "proper" can openers don't!
@@jamietaylor5570 Always useful to know.
I carry the Cybertool L. It’s my favorite multi tool. One of the few things that I carry nearly everyday.
Yes, second that. I used a Cyber Tool M for years and upgraded recently for the L I am using the file and the saw a lot.
I modified my Cyber Tools with magnets in the driver, the M got a 1mm one, the L got a 2mm which works better. I carry extra 4mm bits for my bike in a tiny box (5 and 6mm hex, 8mm hex on 8 mm adapter, T25)
I picked up a cybertool M back in 2011 in Geneva when I was backpacking through Europe. It’s still my favourite victorinox (one of my favourite knives) and has been with me across the world
Annikin’s “I hate them” got me twice for sure. Thanks for the great review and laughs. A pleasure to watch as mostly.
Neat parent truck for the awl. You can drill a circular hole into a plastic beverage bottle to install a straw for a child.
Great video Pete, I got one of these for Christmas from an aunty in the early 00’s, have enjoyed it much ever since.
The cyber M is my EDC since I first got it 10 years ago. And I have 10+ other Vic and Wenger
My two most used SAK tools are the bottle opener and the scissors. The local brewery has traditional crown capped bottles and I don’t bite my nails, I cut them with the scissors. Hence the pioneer X and the Jetsetter are my favourite SAKs.
Love the Pioneer X. I bought one for my birthday a few years ago, it’s my work edc (I’m a teacher).
I love my Cyber M but I find that the Deluxe Tinker is even better for EDC. It has all the tools I need in a slightly smaller package.
I changed that Deluxe Tinker for the Victorinox Explorer, (I get the plus, the black one with the pen) I wear it all the time. The in liner screw driver is pefect to do any job and the manifying glass is very useful too
The hook is a rope tool. It's made to work knots and untie them. Nothing large, but virtually any cordage from 3mm to 8mm. Use the little poker to work it into the knot, pop it through, twist and hook the cord you want to pull through or extract, and pull and twist it back through. If you're working with wet cordage, trying to untie knots, or tie and splice, it's virtually indispensable. Both hook and hall are on the back so you can get a very strong purchase on the knife as a grip for working them, like the corkscrew, as they all operate with twisting, pulling and pushing actions.
Technically the hook is for carrying old school parcels. You know how you used to see packages with a string tied around them. I used to play ice hockey and found it useful for tightening the laces on my skates exceptionally tight. The only limit to anything, is your imagination. The other day I used the hook to pull the hot tray forward in my toaster oven.
@@davejoe2592 No, it's not. It's a rope splicing hook. Officially, it's a parcel hook because the people working at the company now aren't the ones who designed it, and they don't know what it's for, so they adopted someone else's idea of what it was for.
Basically, what happens when a tool falls out of use, and no one remembers what it is for or how to use it, while other tools take its place. The Swiss Army hook dates from well back, when they were still using manila rope, and more traditional tools.
It was a rope splicing hook when I got my first Swiss Army knife in the early 80s, and it's a rope splicing hook now. Nobody needs a hook to carry a parcel rapped in twine, you just loop two fingers through the point where the twine twists at the cross section and carry it.
Using it as a parcel hook is inventive but ultimately unnecessary, and it won't secure the package nearly as well as actually holding onto it with your hand.
Think about it logically for a moment, if nothing else: These knives were designed and developed for the military, and their use and purpose was to provide soldiers with tools to handle every day tasks in the field, during war time, or in training. How many soldiers out of 100 deployed do you think carry packages around, as opposed to tie and splice rope on a daily basis?
@@edwardmorley8359 I agree that using your fingers to carry such a parcel is easier, but the fact still remains that that is the intended purpose of the parcel hook on the knives,hence the name "Parcel hook". Its use though, is only limited to its owner's own mind. I could probably come up with a couple of dozen uses for it myself.
@@edwardmorley8359 I apologize good sir, the new technical term given to it is "Mutilpurpose hook". So I guess they are now leaving it up to the imagination.
@@davejoe2592 Well yeah, that's expected I guess. The hook isn't going to see much use as a rope tool for the average person.
If you check out the Skipper, Large pocket knife, it has a modern rope splicing tool on it, but ironically the one I looked at didn't identify it or describe it, despite listing every other tool. lol
Still useful if you work with paracord though, or wet cord which is ridiculously difficult to loosen knots on. I've never actually used it for anything else.
A cool use for the corkscrew I once saw was in combination with the saw that some Victorinox models have. Screw the knife into a green branch and then use it as an extension pole for the say to cut higher small branches. A bit of a random use, but no more so than using the tweezers for a bit of personal grooming...
Look at Pete bragging that his knife doesn't have other people's DNA on it... He's gotten all fancy.
All high & mighty, not sure this channel is for me any longer.
Only 1%-ers can afford knives with only their DNA on them. The Elites don't live like us
Thanks, man - that brought significant laughs! I use the can opener a lot for tins of tuna for my dogs when we're camping.
I used my can opener a surprising amount when I had a Victorinox; exceptionally useful and effective.
I carry a Cybertool Lite. The light in it points to what you are working on with that bit driver; it can really help with dark areas around small screws in holes and grooves, I have even posted about it. And I really like the magnifying glass in it, helps me peer into transparent RJ45 plugs to ensure that I have the wires in it aligned correctly as it enters the individual grooves after I pushed it in, before I finally crimp it (yeah, I didn't get pass-through plugs).
love your sense of humor!
Man, you catch me out sometimes and I genuinely laugh. Thank you for what you do.
I have some version of one of these, and the hex bit was the perfect thing for me to unlock one of those doors with the push bar in the middle of it.
I love you, Pete! Thank you for the great content and perfect entertainment!
The intro gave me a laugh. I still have speakers connected to the TV in my cave.😉 Full surround sound in the lounge.😂
If you have two pairs of eye glasses, the eye glasses tool is great, no so good if you’re trying to tighten your eye glasses.
Your take on the Cyber M is spot on IMO. The Cyber L and Cyber Lite are too wide and it becomes awkward using the knife and screw driver. The magnifying layer would be an awesome swap for the can opener layer, even if it made the tool slightly wider. And having the awl from the Vic Pioneer on the Cyber would be perfection. The Cyber M is the multi-tool I keep on me in an EDC bag, while the Leatherman wave stays in the car in an extended EDC kit.
Tip: glue small magnets in the bit holder and driver and you'll never have your bits fall out.
Perfect video all around thanks dude.
Tree, love the nose ring!
This was part of my EDC kit for a few years, the screwdriver bits are really nice.
I'd get another but the price today is exactly double what they cost 10 years ago and when you know your old one is kicking around it seems like a waste to buy a new one.
T6 and T8 are the most common knife fastener sizes. Loved the intro LMFAO!!!
The ear hair bit was the most relatable thing I've ever seen in a CZcams video.
Missed the perfect opportunity to splice in Charlton Heston on Soylent Green screaming "It's people".
“I’m looking at you Gerber”
Hahaha!
That intro. Pete, you are an utter lunatic, and I mean this as a sincere compliment.
I have a much older SAK where the awl is next to the corkscrew with the same nail nic. You have to move the corkscrew to get to the awl unless your nail has a 90° bend at the tip.
I love the Victorinox Magnifier too!
Great Entertainment yet Plenty of great information thanks for sharing for my choice I carry the
Victorinox 1976 Craftsman.
You are remarkably funny for an Australian. Well done Sir!
LOL at the dancing outro! I’m impressed your flat head on the Victorinox bent before getting loose and wobbly. I haven’t put that much pressure on a Victorinox yet but it is good to know it can take it. No cork tops on wine bottles in Australia?!
You can get a firesteel to replace the toothpick, and tinder you can load in the corkscrew ahead of your micro screwdriver. I doubt I’ll ever use them, but I’m also determined to use them.
I live for your intros. First one for a while.
Got my first (Yes first sadly) Victorinox electrician from a friend in Switzerland. The awl on that thing is seriously next level and superior to any awl on any multi tool I own fron any company. I'm told it's very different than the standard they use and it doesn't open in a T pose it opens as a blade out the end and it makes absurdly perfect wholes as clean as a drill bit would. The taper on it makes pin holes and up too a 1/4 inch hole.
It also has a wire stripping blade instead of a pen blade which works so fuckin well even for heavy transmission line insulation.
I never felt like I would have a real use for any Victorinox but was proven wrong by my good friend. He didn't just pick a random knife like most people would do he picked a brand he knew I didn't own and the style for my field of work as an RF engineer. I have to say it is in a weird way a perfect gift knife to have gotten from someone. Even got it engraved for me. I also like that it isn't overly thick either and doesn't weigh much.
I'm with you on the ear hair thing !!
Advanced Earing Wife, getting to 100k subs before Advanced Knife Bro 😂
I love to see a new SAK, but damn the banner of your subscribers whilst you pluck your ear hairs is the real reason I keep coming back. Thanks for the ongoing self-deprecating jokes that we can all relate to.
I would love to get one of these and mod it. Ditch the blade layer, opener layer, put in the magnifying glass and inline Philips. It would live in my bag and have a bunch of the weird tools that you dont really get on a leatherman.
The number of nose hairs I’ve pulled with my SAK tweezers and the amount of marijuana residue on my SAK toothpick is something to be studied by university researchers.
Alox-models' awl combined with the bottle opener would be the perfect multitool layer.
Here in the US lots of beer bottles are not twist off and even cheap wine bottles have corks.
The dust in your house is *not* mostly people; that's a myth. Unless you're mummifying corpses at home. You'll notice that uninhabited buildings get pretty dusty too.
Guess you never heard of ghost dust.
Love my VICs. Always carry one.
I like the combined can and bottle opener tool which is on only a few Victorinox models like the Compact. It works well as cap lifter and opens cans sufficiantly. It can be placed in the main layer instead of teh small blade and so you gain a complete layer. It's a pitty that this aproach is not used more often by Victorinox.
The bottle opener & corkscrew are essential!
For alcoholics, yes. Lol. Bottle openers are kind of overrated though as you can pretty much take the cap off a bottle with anything. I honestly use the spine of the large blade on mine to open more bottle than the bottle opener just because it's easier to get to generally.
Nice! I carry a Fieldmaster daily for its Phillips driver, wood saw and scissors.
If I had to give one general overall statement of the role of a Victorinox, it would be this: None if the tools on any model are the very best you can find anywhere, but if it’s all you’ve got with you it will get the job done very well.
No one would carry around a 16” chainsaw or pruning shears “just in case,” but a quick fidget of the saw can accomplish some random, unexpected pruning task on the fly.
I’m not electronic oriented enough to need all of those drivers, but it’s nice to see that they work well. (Not much if a surprise, considering it’s Victorinox.)
Also, I may very well be the only Victorinox owner in history who considers the small pen blade to be the primary blade on a Swiss Army Knife.
The balance point of a SAK is right in the middle, between my middle finger and ring finger. Using the large blade just feels clumsy for simple tasks like package opening, but the small blade is easy to control. Plus, the thinner blade trims small branches very neatly.
A lot of the craft breweries around Wisconsin use traditional bottle caps. My Cadet's bottle opener totally doesn't make me look like a dork at parties.
If you aren't using the can opener on your SAK, you don't know what you're missing. I've had an Explorer for 30ish years and can easily say the can opener is the most used tool on it.
Cedric & Ada Gear & Outdoors is one I really enjoy !! reference 17:30 .
I still need to use can opener from time to time, mostly when the opening system fails. Best one I have is in my Surge, but Victorinox one is fine as well. I agree on the pen knife though
Nice as always
It is my trusted companion for over 10 years!🥰🥰🥰
I've had a similar sized one for 60+ years. It always comes along on car trips. Otherwise, too bulky to bother with.
I have one of these and I love it
G'day Pete, you had me @ the intro mate, made my day, lol.
Handy toolset sure, but "Cyber" ? lets not go there, more marketing wank, what next, cy-beer ?
Anyway, yep the awl on an end pivot is the go.
Just carry real pliers, if you need/want them, even smaller versions are better than multitool jobs.
Any tin can I've seen in recent years = ring pull and even pricey wine bottles = stelvin cap.
I do reckon the micro driver for eye glasses, (vision and/or sun), is a real winner, for yourself or someone else; unlikely you'd have one elsewhere as an EDC, or in a kit or pack.
And yep the magnifier makes perfect sense, though I'm happy to defer to the one on my base-plate compass. Cheers Duke.
Great job
Multitool scissors (Leatherman, Vic, etc) are excellent for snipping cockle burs and stick seeds from doggo fur.
Ahh Mean Girls.. that brings back some memories. It was a simpler time, when Lindsay Lohan was hot as hell, and my biggest focus in life was my real strong beer pong game. I dominated.
"Cyber" 😂 love it man 👍
If cleaning each other’s skin is part of marriage I’m not getting married.
Pete you'll be glad to know that the next place hair starts to grow is on the nose and as more hair on your head falls out your eye brows will kick it up a notch and go crazy. Oh and I'm also wondering when you'll get around to baton test this knife? But seriously, there's a Victorinox out there for everyone - even those who need a bottle opener, cork screw or really small hook!
I've owned a Cybertool for maybe 20 years - for many years it was my only knife - and somehow I've never noticed that the pliers had a wire cutter built in.
I've only ever used the corkscrew for picking knots.
Your hallway dance reminds me of the KOMPRESSOR trashbag dance from... god must be 20 or 23 years ago now. If that's the reference, that is a DEEP cut, Cyber-Friend.
Love that Victorinox is a pretty girl wearing a Christmas hat. Just as I always imagined.
Get the "Victorinox Mini Tools for Swiss Army Knife" for a Torx screwdriver T4 and you have the perfect "knife tool".
CyberTool Lite sounds like your ideal has a mag glass and also has the 2nd most centred driver of the range with a light for screwing in dark places or stealthing around bedrooms to let others rest.
CyberTool S is best centred in line driver and other tools next to centre EDC and paired with a LM Squirt you have everything covered bar the light anf magnifying glass.
Does the holder for the bits seem universal like you could by a t6 bit and stick it in there?
Now that is cyber
I really needed some Pete humor today, this weekend started off bad. So far still on my second Victorinox.
And the Pete humor, today with extra farting!
Thanks
Most pocket knives have T6 or T8 for the body and pocket clip screws
Your wife's CZcams account should be Advanced Earring Enthusiast. Also I get nostalgia tingles every time you use Chrono Trigger music.
Wish victorinox had adopted the wenger awl retrieval style with the cutout for easy access
If you have a splinter in your hand and a magnifying glass in the other how do you hold the tweezers?
gotta check its a splinter first, and find the side with the entry
I have used these pliers to push in a c ring inside a webcam that I was fixing once.
dont let the isopropyl alcohol rub the magnifying glass or the scales
I feel like surround sound used to be a much bigger deal than it is now. What happened?
Why didn’t you get the cyber tool lite as that way you get a magnifying glass and a light and the pliers and the cyber tool ?
Music from Chrono Trigger robot lol now that's a deep cut
Magnifier / pry bar layer is brilliant. Victorinox, listen to Pete.
I do cyber work, play with animals (dead and alive) and fart a lot, so this sort of video brings me to your channel. Oh, and I like knives a bit. Thanks for the review. Shave the ears mate. Awkward, but it's here to stay. Reality for me. My girlfriend got me one of the electric nose/ear trimmer weed eater things. Out of love I am sure-LOL. You can look forward to the the crazy eyebrows and nose hair coming in later. I probably see you 20ish years, just guessing.
I've been "nibbling" on my nails for 70 years, and I"VE never gotten worms....!
