I’ve had mixed feelings about SAKs ever since my father gave me my first ‘real’ knife, a Buck 112 clone. I used SAKs exclusively until that day, then quickly ditched them in the same manner as I did my training wheels. They are a far more kid/people-friendly than any other knife, for sure. Truth be told, I think that has long been what I have resented about them. For me, they bring back memories of before I was ready for the ‘big boy knives’ that came in the years to follow.
Good review. Thanks for the information!
Nice !! I just love my alox bantam 🙂 Subbed
i have the same one but its made of wood and has a bear carving on it
it’s not supposed to be a can opener.
I’ve had one in my purse or attached to my wallet for about ten years. Can’t do without it.
my cadet was also only $12 with the regular red scales, although i prefer my Victorinox Ranger and Deluxe Tinker
Hi, my dad recently bought me a Swiss Army Knife Tinker and Classic SD combo pack. Me being a boy, have learned how to use a knife from camping and being in the outdoors. I love how the Bantam is so thin and yet has 8 tools. Great Video!
great video Urban Prepper!! i have the Victorinox Squatter which i just love!! keep up the great work!!
Awesome video man. But can you use the combination tool as a pry, for things like opening paint cans and stuff like that? Thanks
What do you think is better bantam or the waiter ?
Someone said it’s possible to screw phillips head screws as well by holding it at a 45 degree angle or something. Is that true? o_O
Very nice and helpful review, thanks
Actually I prefer bantams can opener better. It was hard to use at first but when I learn to use it is quite easy.
no its not, the knife casing is 84 mm
No definitly not.
Is the blade length on the victorinox bantam the same as on an 91mm?
i have one in blue nylon handle very good knife that i can pull out with scaring people
It’s 14.00 on amazon not 10
There is an alox version of this!! My first pocket knife was an ecoline bantam, I will buy the alox one and probably this version too. I loved it
Very informative …thanks for sharing!
Never go anywhere WITHOUT a VICTORINOX KNIFE with you!! Check this out Damn! 33 essential features enclosed in a 3.5inch blade! For real I just got one and this knife is full filling my expectations so well like no knife before! and also affordable too, I SUGGEST! http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0001GS19U/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B0001GS19U&linkCode=as2&tag=supremehuntin-20&linkId=7ONGPLBQXL77YHLH
ha! I carry the small Waiter- have that same BM but cant pull it in a city environment, sadly…
привет , Россия ! =)
I have the Wenger Premier, Same knife, made by Wenger. For more info see: http://www.sakwiki.com/tiki-index.php?page=Premier
i have pocket knife too but my pocket knife has more tools it cost: 88php or 2 dollar very very cheap is made of stainless from philippines
Also keep in mind that the combo tool takes up the position of the spare blade, so it is also notably thinner than the conventional bottle and can openers. I came dangerously close to bending it with light use on my Compact. If you were doing a lot of prying and still want portability, go for the sturdier tools and alox handles of the Cadet.
If all product reviews on YouTube could be like this one…
The Singapore army makes one that is non reflective black and texturized~ 🙂
Excellent review sr
Survival pocket knife needs just two things,a good blade and real good can opener that’s it.
M getting the waiter it comes with one extra tool the corkscrew
The item you refer to on the Bantam is a cap lifter. The Bantam does not have a can opener whereas the Cadet does. Most other SAKs have both tools.
its also a phillips screwdriver,the way its angled allows to get a good bight on the screw head
If you’re talking about the combo tool, then you are wrong. It was designed to also be a can opener.
Love your channel, thanks for all the great videos! You should update with a review of the Victorinox Compact. It’s barely thicker, and has a huge assortment of additional EDC tools (scissors, pen, pin, eyeglass screwdriver, nail file, parcel hook, and corkscrew) that might slim down your system.
