Luminox - Swiss Made - Penknife

This is a penknife from the Luminox watch company. Not a part of their product line, more of a corporate gift kind of product for them.


Has a number of useful functions. Generally follows the design of the famous Swiss Army Knives.


The unique feature I find on this penknife is the three rubber ribs close to the edge of the knife.

The Victorinox Swisscard Quattro - a pocketful of brilliant bits

The Victorinox Swisscard Quattro comes with 13 features. With the concept of a credit card in mind, it was designed to be kept in the wallet. Like all Victorinox products, it comes with a lifetime warranty.


The fact that it is Swiss made is made very obvious on the packaging. The card is in the typical red colour of Victorinox albeit in a semi-transparent casing. This allow you to see the types of tools available and made it easy to chose the correct tool.


The back of the sleeve that carries the tool list.


The inner sleeve on the left as a short history about Victorinox as well as a picture of the founder. This elaborate packaging was due to the holiday season that was coming up (Christmas). This product is meant as a gift.


Unlike a Victorinox penknife, all the tools that came with this unit are not linked together. As such, users must be weary when using the tools as it is easily misplaced. I am sure replacements are possible but it could be expensive.


Instructions on how to use the screw bit tool.


The tool comes with  a small loophole provided on the bottom right corner of the tool. If needed, you attach keys and such to it - from a credit card design it now can be a keychain.


The back of the tool is devoid of any wording except for the ruler markers on the top edge of the tool. This tool can measure up to 4 inches.


Taking out the tools, the whole tool pack consists of seven items. The blade is approximately 2 inches long.


This is a very useful piece of tool. I would definitely recommend it to anyone.

It was purchased in St Andrews, Scotland in December 2015 for UK Sterling 16.
