Swiss Army Knife - Rally - 9 Functions, Multitool - Red, 58 mm

The small sized Swiss army knives by Victorinox are not your quintessential pocket knives, but more or less key-chain tools that you can put in your key-ring and use when anything else is not available. Classic SD has been the most popular version in this realm, but I see myself rooting for the Rally as a more useful key-chain SAK. The SAK itself has a small blade - about 1.5" in length and can be sharpened quite quickly at a 20 degree angle on a sharpener. The magnetic Philips driver is the right fit for most sunglasses and spectacles which is a very nice thing to have around. I am not sure i would be using the nail-file much, other than using it as a prying tool. The tweezers and toothpick reaffirm this knife's civilian status. Basically this is a Classic SD with the combo Philips / cap lifter replacing the scissors. I personally find this more useful because i would rather prefer the bigger scissors on my Pioneer X or Climber to the Classic SD's mini scissors for any cutting needs. The Philips driver is really useful for smaller tasks like repairing spectacles which the bigger multi-tools and SAKs would need a specialised add-on tool for. For the current discounted price, nothing like this little fella. 5 stars!

It has 3 different tools. Knife is really sharp , so be a bit careful. This is a small tool, it can easily fit in your wallet or jean pocket. Includes a black leather type cover ( not real leather) to store the tool. You can attach it to a keychain as well. Easy to open the tools. You can’t flip to open them , need to manually pull out each blade, so ensure you have a decent length of nails, coz its kinda tough to open it without nails. Its user friendly. I would recommend this for personal safety that women and men can cause if you are travelling alone or in public transport.

One of the smallest Victorinox models, has just 5 tools — small blade, nail file cum flat-head driver, cap lifter cum Philips head driver (magnetic), toothpick, and tweezers. Super small to comfortably carry in your keychain. A handy tool to open letters or small packages. The tool that I find the most useful is the magnetic Philips head driver; works wonderfully well. Not sturdy for big screws, but quite sufficient for small repairs. Victorinox aficionados like me could definitely own one or two of these.

I bought it for my doctor brother who is obsessed with filing his nail, tightening his motorbike mirror everyday and a beer drinker who looks for weird stuff to open his bottles. This small piece of hardware works fine for him for all of his daily stuff and the knife is such a small cute thing which you may never use but when you have to, you will be glad you had one, after all how can there be a victorinox without it? The wire stripper? No, never used it and never will. If you like the weird screwdriver hand, go for the rally, if not and you fancy the scissors, go for the classic.

Its small in size

I’ve kept the victorinox rally in my Amazon cart for quite sometime and lucky me it was recently listed in lightning deals. This coupled with cashback offer got me this pocket knife for ₹660/- which I believe a very good deal for this piece of gem. Though I have other victorinox pocket knives they are a bit large and heavy to attach it to keychain. This one is the perfect size for keychains. Though small in size it has the same quality and usefulness as its larger sized cousins. It is easy and smooth to open all the tools and though small in size it still give the “tact” sound when folding them, a typical victorinox signature. The blade is very sharp out of the box, it is hair shaving sharp. Should be useful to open envelopes and packages. The same goes for all the other tools in terms of practicality. The nail filer, the bottle opener, the philips screw driver and the tweezer will be the most frequently used apart from the blade. The toothpick will also have its usefulness 😬. Now this hangs in my keychain ready for action.

Too expensive, not worth. And also, not returnable!

I feel like other tools not included in the SAK Rally would be uncomfortable to use in a model this size. Two screw drivers, a small blade, bottle opener, nail file, tweezers, toothpick and wire stripper is more than you'd need in a key chain friendly format. Addition of other tools like the scissors or corkscrew would compromise on the comfort of carry and use at this size. If you need more tools, Victorinox has a wide selection of models with different tools. I find the product is Great Value for my Money (even greater at a discount) I will probably get another one if I ever lose the current one.
