'Makers Of The Original Swiss Army Knife'
Victorinox is the original Swiss Army knife, made in
Switzerland for over 100 years. They produce over 300 different knife models
with the most famous being the Classic, Tinker, and Swiss Champ. They are
known for high quality construction and used worldwide.
Karl Elsener, founder of Victorinox, began his career as an aprentice making
razor knives and surgical instruments in Germany. In 1884 the master cutler
returned to his home town of Ibach, Switzerland; opened a workshop and later
founded the Association of Swiss Master Cutlers - this led to the creation
of the famous Swiss Army Knife in 1891. The standard of Karl Elsener's work
was very fine and his reputation and popularity quickly grew - as did his
business.
Today, following consistant development, expansion and consolidation of
Elsener's goals, Victorinox is one of the leading knife manufacturers in the
World.
Every new Victorinox knife is razor sharp and produced by Swiss craftsmen
using the finest quality steel, hardened to precise standards and passed
through rigorous control check. It is this attention to detail and the
Elsener's family's commitment to producing cutlery of the highest quality
that has made Victorinox kitchen knives the choice of generations of
professional cooks, chefs and butchers.
"Since 1884, the
quality of our products has been our first priority. This exceptional
attention to quality is reflected in the efficient Quality Assurance System
that covers the production of our pocket multi-tools, household and
professional knives. Our effort to provide consumers around the world with
functional and practical high-quality products at affordable prices gives
our lives deeper meaning and adds joy and satisfaction to our work."
