CLICK for great DEALS on a VICTORINOX Swiss Army Knife:
https://brandmade.tv/product/victorin...
The term "Swiss Army knife" was coined by US soldiers after World War II, presumably because they had trouble pronouncing its original name, "Offiziersmesser". Sometimes, the term "Swiss Army knife" is also used metaphorically to describe usefulness, such as a software tool that is a collection of special-purpose tools. But thanks to an official ruling, only VICTORINOX and WENGER have the right to use the Swiss cross on their knives. Watch how the Swiss Army Knife is made!

How a Swiss Army Knife is made.
'Yes', a Swiss Army Knife is made in Switzerland. In Delémont to be exact, by the Wenger company. They make both VICTORINOX and WENGER brands of knives.
THE STORY OF THE SWISS ARMY KNIFE
The term "Swiss Army knife" was coined by US soldiers after World War II, presumably because they had trouble pronouncing its original name, "Offiziersmesser". Sometimes, the term "Swiss Army knife" is also used metaphorically to describe usefulness, such as a software tool that is a collection of special-purpose tools.
The Victorinox shield has remained virtually unchanged since the early days with only slight variations of size. It is mainly found as a metal inlay but sometimes is heat embossed on economy models or painted on some scale variations. The Wenger shield has gone through an evolution of many designs that range from forms of various crossbows inside of federal shields, a federal shield with a cross to different varieties of the modern form.
The "Swiss Army Knife" is being constantly copied abroad, e.g. in Germany, France, Spain, USA, Japan, China, etc., but the original quality has never been equaled. Unfortunately, however, on some of the foreign imitations the Swiss cross was added, which could be stopped thanks to the intervention of Swiss embassies and court orders. The application of the Swiss Cross was undertaken in order to confuse the public and give the impression that they were dealing with a genuine Swiss product. The official ruling, however, gives only the two Swiss manufacturers, VICTORINOX and WENGER, the right to use the Swiss cross on their knives.
On 26 April 2005 Victorinox acquired Wenger, thus turning the Swiss Army knife market into a monopoly for supplying the knives to the Swiss Army once again. However, on the consumer side Victorinox has stated that it intends to keep both brands intact.
