"Hello, CZcams!". Two words that always make my day.
Hello CZcams, i love this words
I always reply with "hello Felix"!... It's a pity that he can't hear me returning his greeting!
Especially if followed by the magic three words "I show you!"
I love that he grabs the tin can with actual hot water!!!!! Little details like this show us how much he cares with the stuff he does.
Great. I have ten swiss army knives, and none of them have a file. Now I need to get another one. Thanks, Felix!
I have found the file works very well for removing burs and flashing on plastics, especially handy when working with pvc pipe.
I wish Victorinox would put out a diamond file on their knives like on the Leatherman Wave. That thing is super handy, and can sharpen that hatchet no problem.
I agree!!

Thanks for the tips! My friend was laughing the other day when she saw me using my SAK wood saw to grate cheese in the kitchen, which you taught us a few months back! Thanks.
Haaaa ha haaaa, that's super funny! Thanks a lot!
Mache ich seither auch immer. Geht wunderbar.
I use it for fresh cinnamon...never buy ground cinnamon again!
Unwetter und Corona draussen was soll's. Mit Deinem Video hast Du den Abend gerettet.
Haa ha haa, sehr nettes Kompliment! Danke!
@gazza p "Severe weather/storm and Coronavirus outside. You saved the evening with your video."
Thanks for including the information about sharpening an axe. That is good information to know and I will be sure to carry an appropriately hardened file for that purpose in the future.
Glad it was helpful!
#11 - I don't know about the other models, but on my Victorinox Ranger the metal saw tip is shaped for cleaning dirt out of your fingernails... and yes, I do use it for that!
I cut through a 1/2" dia rebar when helping with an Eagle scout project. No problem. Took time, but less time than walking 1/2 mile back to truck then driving home to get a bigger saw. Swiss Champ rules! Every single person should have one. I often give them as graduation presents. Thanks for making the video Felix!
Kudos: "...give them as graduation presents."
The only person greater than a hero is a maker of heroes.
Hello CZcams! And the weekend starts wonderfully 🤠 3, 4 and 8 are awesome for bushcraft, thanks again 👍🏼🤙🏼💪🏼 Liebe Grüße, Dein Martin 🤜🏼🤛🏼🤠
Vielen Dank lieber Martin!
@@FelixImmler Gerne 🤠🤜🏼🤛🏼
I had a steel bar come out of its concrete post and was sticking out. Checked the shed couldnt find anything to cut the bar with. Got my swiss army knife out and cut the bar within 5 minutes. Brilliant steel cutter.
Hello John. Thanks a lot for this wonderful story!
I think the file is one of the best tools to have. I use it for my finger nails, for sure the hygiene is important but I have also used t to fix warn locks, clean bolts so I can fix my car, use back as a scraper, the end as a very small screwdriver...The end is good for getting dirt from under your nails too. It's very handy and I tool most people don't have even in a group where people do have multitools on them.
I love the 91mm Ranger model pretty much the best of everything 👌
(I say this with a spartan in my pocket though 🤔)
....huh. Using the saw to lift the can was genius. I just gave my 12yo niece her first SAK (a Huntsman), which is probably the first nice thing she has to her name. (🥺). We just got back from camping, and when she wasn't on her phone, she was opening and playing with all the implements. Anyways, I will be sure to show her some of your tricks!
Great video! I use the tip of the metal file for small philips screws and it works great 👍
Files cut in a forward motion. Rub your thumb, on the teeths of the file, and push forward and then push backwards, you will feel that the teeth cut, only in forward motion. At least that's how work, all the files I have ever used, including Victorinox Swisstool Spirit. Someone once said, that if you use them back and forth like a saw, you dull the teeth and eventually the file becomes unusable. I don't know if it dulls the teeth, because I never used them like a saw, but the fact, that they cut only in forward motion, is true.
Been rewatching your videos Mr. Felix since i retired my huntsman and buy the ranger wich has a file, i never knew what i can do with it, your videos always put a smile on my face hahahaha
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback!
Thanks !!! The Best Swiss army knife Teacher!!!! Greetings from Chile
Muchas gracias!
Habe nicht nur Metall, sondern auch Kunststoff gut mir der Säge bearbeiten können. Danke!
Danke für den super interessanten Hinweis!
Habe Plexiglas damit gesägt/gefeilt und hat super funktioniert!
Stripped screws that are raised can use the file to file a flathead and then use the flathead screwdriver to remove stripped screws 😊
Iv seen a lot of bushcrafters in my time but I have never seen anyone like felix before
I've used the metal file on my SwissChamp to sand down parts of a wooden spoon I was carving.
Thanks, Felix, for the great videos. Do you think you could do a video on how to properly dry, seal, oil, etc. a piece carved from green wood?
My suggestion: use the tool to create a notch in a scrap of metal, wood or plastic to serve as a trigger for an animal trap.
That is a great list of tips! Thank you, my friend. I am looking forward to the next video on the file comparisons! Have a great week!
thank you so much brother!
@@FelixImmler You're welcome!
All of my SWISS ARMY knife's are my favorite tools I carry the alox pioneer x with the black alox, Honestly I use it everyday and I will tell you that you can't go wrong owning any Swiss army knife that are one of the best knives that you could own, you will not be sorry for the money that you have spent!!! I love Swiss army knife's!!! -GARY 🇨🇭
Hellow CZcams! I love your opening line Felix! Makes me smile. I used my swiss champ once to cut a padlock of a fire escape, because the key got lost. Cut in in a minute or two.
Constructive criticism re: volume; when you speak, its low, so I turn it up, but then your music gets so loud in my ears (I use earphones) so, I have to lower the volume again or just pull out my earphones.
Very true.
Great video. I love these files. I wish Victorinox would bring back the Wenger Ranger 88 with the big file and saw. Best bushcraft multitool ever made.
Thank you! Greetings from Sweden :)
Every video of yours is like a relevation, and my decade old handyman gets much more useful after each viewing
Great to hear! Thanks a lot!
Felix, many thanks! Always something to look forward to at the end of the week. It is precisely for the file that I usually carry the Ranger - the outer limit of what will hand in your pocket. Brilliant!
Thanks a lot for your comment my friend!
I love how happy he is!
Genius Felix ! You are the very best !!!
Thank you very much!
I think I have that on my Mountaineer. It's a very good quality file for something so small. I like trick #3 and #5. Good show.
It makes a mighty good toenail file I tell you!
Thank you Herr Immler!!
Again, something new caught my attention!! And again, thank You!!
Hi felix first of all you English is very good I understand everything you say with ease and your skills are very good and many on your videos you look and act relaxed and confident and comfortable my dear sir you are a gentleman and when I see you videos I smile to myself AND IVE MADE A VIKING BEARDED AXE FROM SCRATCH whilst watching your video oh and it cost me £14-00 and it looks bloody good to and boy does it take some polishing. Felix my man thank you so much,I should say DANKESCHON HERR FELIX IMMLER John
Ps I’m sorry about the absence of the umlauts on dankeschon I don’t know how to bring them up on my iPad.
Hello John. Thank you so much for this wonderful feedback!!!
I was biking around my street when my neighbor stopped me and called me to his porch. He had his bike locked to the stairs metal but this thick lock was stuck even though he entered the correct code. He asked me if I had a bolt cutter. I didn't. I grabbed the only thing I had; a wire cutter. Didn't work. Didn't even scratch the silicone outer layer. So I looked for a metal saw but didn't had it. The guy had less tools than me, he was trying with a butter knife .. so I thought .. wait a sec. My swiss champ has a metal saw!. So after 30 minutes if intense sawing and sweating I've managed to cut through the 4-5cm thick threaded twisted secure bike lock with just the metal saw and the help of the pliers.
SAK SAves the day!
Thanks for this wonderful story!
Great tips as usual. Thank you Felix.
My pleasure!
Den Trick mit der heissen Dose vom Feuer ist super! Viele Grüße in die Schweiz!
Another trick- I did this 25- 30 years ago. On my swiss champ, with the fish scaler tool opened, I filed inch marks on my scale, extending the inch markings to 6 inches. Felix, in 1977 my parents, my brother and I toured Engleburg and Lake Lucern. What a beautiful country you live in! But you already know this! I heard the cow bells in the background of one of your videos. Brings back memories. Great Videos!
I just noticed you have a Wurth cabinet in your shop. It’s good to see as I work for Wurth. I’ve been off for a awhile because of medical issues with my foot and ankle, so I’ve watched a ton of CZcams and started my own EDC channel. It’s a lot of fun and as I’ve discovered some work, so I appreciate your hard work and all the fun you put in your content. Take care and stay safe.
Danke wie immer lieber Felix! Das weg heben von der Dose hat mich besonders beeindruckt! LG Sepp
Danke mein lieber Freund!

Very good Felix, thanks for the video!
Glad you liked it my friend!
One of the nicest and smartest guys on CZcams. I love my SAK.....carry it every single day......
Thanks you so much for this wonderful feedback!
Thanks for the useful tips!😊🙏🏻
Had no idea that I could use it as a striker, thanks for the tips!
Ok now I need a Vctorinox SAK with a metal saw!! Thank you for excellent tips from Professor Inox Felix!! 🇺🇸 ❤
Thank you Galen...
Thank you for the video!
Wow, that was quite the ending! 😆
Thank you Felix, another excellent video.
Thank you for making and posting an informative and entertaining video on a brand of knife of which so many of us have so many versions.
Thank you very much!
I used the metal saw to cut a slot into the head of a stripped out philips screw so I could use the saw as a screw driver. :)
Thanks for the tips! My friend.
All great tips, thanks my friend!
Glad it was helpful!
Looking forward for the test next week!
Thanks for the info some of it is new for me and the rest a refresher. I love it when you add the funny stuff at the end ;)
Glad you liked it!
Finally a useful presentation! Congrats!
Thank you!
Helpful as always! 👍👍
Glad you think so!
Hey Mr. Victorinox - sign this bloke up immediately . . . . he's good!
Thanks a lot John!
Awesome Felix!
If it were hardened steel, it would also be very brittle and the number of repairs Victorinox would have to make would grow to the stratosphere. In addition, customers would be left without the entire item in the meantime. That is why they make it of a softer steel but that does not give them so many problems. I at Spirit managed to adapt an HSS saw blade. In the Swiss Champ I have, I have not found a way yet but I keep trying.
Hello abcd 1234. That sound realy interesting. Can you send me a email with a photo how you adapted a HSS Saw blad on your spirit?
Great knife 👍🏻
Someone said this before and I think it is a great idea, could you try to design your own SAK, I guarantee I would buy it. And if you don’t want to make your own SAK, what would you want on an SAK/What is your favorite SAK?
This is a very interesting topic. I will think about it.
@@FelixImmler yes plz
Great Video Felix if you take the file or The hack saw blade you can take off extra Compound from your ferrouseum rod Without it igniting into sparks when you get enough gathered up you can put The filings on a less than a perfect fire tender and you should be able to get it to ignite the extra Filings from your Ferro rod
Hervorragend, wollte schon um genau dieses Video nachfragen 😀 Danke Felix
Hallo Felix,
sehr schönes Video😊.
Ich habe im Urlaub neben einem Mora Eldris immer ein etwas älteres Victorinox Ranger dabei; neben dem Champion Plus (Vorläufer des SwissChamp) für mich persönlich eines der durchdachtesten Vic-Modelle.
Es hat noch eine akzeptable Größe und dazu eine sehr brauchbare Kombination von Werkzeugen an Bord.
Die Metallfeile nutze ich unter anderem auch zur Holzbearbeitung beim Schnitzen. Die Metallfeile ist, wie du im Video sehr schön dargestellt hast, alles andere als nutzlos; sie ist eher extrem vielseitig und für mich auf längeren Touren nahezu unverzichtbar.
Liebe Grüße & schönes Wochenende
Joe
Excellent!!!!!
Thanks a lot Christopher!
Very interesting and informative! 6 was very significant! I like it!😄
Glad you liked it!
Great vid! Ich freu mich schon auf nächste Woche! 😊
Danke Arthur!

Danke Liam!
Love Swiss Army knives and love your vids 👍🏼
Thank you so much. greetings from switzerland
Saludos Felix gracias por mostrar todos estos trucos 👍🏼😃👍🏼
Gracias rafael. Tienes un bonito logo :-D
Wieder mal einfach nur klasse, Felix, danke für Deine Tips!
Feile und Säge eignen sich meiner Erfahrung nach auch gut für die Bearbeitung harter Naturmaterialien wie z.B. Kokosnussschalen oder tropische Harthölzer, wo man mit normalen Holzsägen oder Feilen meist nicht weiterkommt. Außerdem funktioniert das Tool auch bei diversen Plastik-Materialien und semi-harten oder compound- Materialien wie z.B. Brennstoffwürfeln oder einem Keilriemen. Und ich feil und säge selbstverständlich meine Ferrocerium-Stangen damit, u.a. auch wenn es darum geht, wieder mal einen Zahnstocher für mein Vic herzustellen.
Eine moderne Axt kann man mit dem Werkzeug wohl nicht bearbeiten, sehr wohl aber meine indischen Billhooks (Gertel), denn deren Rockwell liegt irgendwo im Keller rum. Und alte Sensen und Sicheln freuen sich auch über die Bekanntschaft mit Victorinox ... ;-)
Der Fingernagelreiniger ist auch ein ideales Tool, um so manche Verriegelungen zu lösen - heißt man führt die Feile durch irgendeinen schmalen Spalt und löst dann mit der Spitze die Verriegelung.
Apropos Verriegelung: Bei uns ist vor der Haustüre noch so ein eisernes Scherengitter als zusätzlichen Ein- und Aufbruchsschutz (haben fast alle Häuser hier). Als wir mal mitten in der Nacht von einem Trip zurückkamen, ging dummerweise das Hängeschloss, mit dem das Scherengitter gesichert ist, nicht mehr auf. Das Schloss war nicht zu knacken und konnte auch nicht durchgesägt werden, aber die Feile am Victorinox kam wenigstens durch die Eisenlasche, in der das Schloss hing. Ohne das SAK wären wir erst Stunden später und dank professioneller Hilfe ins eigene Haus gekommen ;-)
Zur Feilentechnik hätte ich noch einen Hinweis: In manchen Fällen mag es sinnvoller sein, statt mit der Feile ein eingespanntes Werkstück zu bearbeiten die Feile ruhig zu halten und das Werkstück drüberzuführen. Kann bespielsweise passieren, wenn man mal gerade keine Werkbank zur Verfügung hat. Ich leg zu diesem Zweck die Feile flach auf den Tisch, und zwar an der Tischkante. Dann kann man beispielsweise eine Haselnuss flach über die Feile drüberführen und auf diese Art und Weise eine kleine völlig ebene Fläche in die Nuss feilen.
Nochmal danke und LG, Robert
Hallo lieber Robert! Danke für die schönen Geschichten mit dem Gertel und dem Vorhängeschloss. Die Feile flach abzulegen werde ich selbstverständlich auch teste. Deine Kommentare sind für mich ein wertvolle Quellen der Inspiration. Vielen Dank dafür!!
Another great video Felix
Thank you so much my friend!
Crazy fun!
Viele tolle Tipps, wie immer. #4 ist genial :-)
Saludos desde Medellín Colombia.
Excelente video.
Me suscribo a tu canal porque me gusta tu estilo y la información que das.
Great video my friend
Nice video Felix
Thank you so much!
Tricks # 4 bis # 10 sehr gut!
Very interesting!! You are the best! Complimenti!! Ciao! See you next friday!!!
I have a mini camper which I bought in Switzerland... more than 20 years ago.. it has been on my key ring and has been a real help in so many situations... may have to get a new one because it’s almost kaput..
Investing money in pocket knives is usually a good idea, haa ha haa 😄
Felix Immler ... in London if the police catch you with one, they will arrest you..
This guy is great
Good tip Felix.
👍👍👍👍❤️❤️💯topvideo topgag am ende😂immer super und das freitagshighlight! Danke felix u schoenes wochenende
Vielen Dank lieber Boris!!
Viejo excelentes videos. Un saludo desde Colombia
Thanks a lot!
Felix que Victorinox me recomienda para llevar al campo?
I like using the metal saw/file while shaping small wooden crafts like fishing lures.
Thanks a lot for this valuable hint!
L'astuce #4 est excellente ! :)
Useful!
This was great but friday is going to be an awesome video
Me gusta tener mi Vitorinox en la cocina para afilado rapido de mis cuchillos de cocina. Muy buen video. Saludos
Love the accent 💙
Also helpful, for me as a total noob 😊
Just started watching your videos over the past few days, they are amazing! Which swiss army knife would you recommend buying as your videos have inspired me to get out into the woods ? Keep up the excellent work and the comedy my friend 👍
