Want to hold a piece of long history in your hands? Victorinox makes your dreams come true. To celebrate the 125th anniversary of the Swiss Army Knife, Victorinox has launched a replica of the original 1897 Limited Edition Swiss Army Knife that closely resembles the first original officer's and sporting knife. The replica 1897 limited edition Swiss Army Knife is limited to 9,999 pieces worldwide. Individually numbered and laser-engraved with the year 1897, this unique Swiss Army Knife is ideal for collecting or gifting.
Rumor has it that a time capsule was discovered behind a pile of heavy steel at Victorinox’s headquarters in the town of Yixi, Switzerland. Curious as to what might be inside, the discoverer took the time capsule straight to the office of Carl Elsener, CEO of Victorinox. Carl Elsener is the great-grandson of Victorinox founder Karl Elsener. Together they carefully opened the time capsule... and what was hidden inside was the original officer and sports knife.
It all started in 1897, when our founder Karl Elsener successfully patented the officer's and sporting knife that is now known around the world as the Swiss Army Knife. In 2022, Victorinox celebrates the 125th anniversary of the birth of the Swiss Army Knife. This iconic product represents excellent quality, outstanding functionality, breakthrough innovation and classic design, and is also the cornerstone of the brand's history. Since 1897, Victorinox has continuously developed innovative, award-winning products in the Swiss Army Knife, household and professional knives, watches, travel luggage and fragrance categories, inspired by classic military and sports knives.
To continue this historic moment, Victorinox launches replicas of the original officer and sports knives, the Swiss Army Knife. This iconic knife is packaged in a dazzling time capsule and placed in a unique box that tells the story of the Swiss Army Knife. Opening the box layer by layer, it feels like crossing time and space, going deep into history, and personally experiencing the wonderful century-long journey of the original Swiss Army Knife. In fact, whoever opens the box will become part of this wonderful journey through time and space.
Replica 1897 Limited Edition Swiss Army Knife looks almost exactly like the original, but uses the latest technology inside. Each one is hand-assembled by skilled craftsmen. The red handle surface made of vulcanized wood fiber feels comfortable and moist to the touch. The iconic words "Elsener Schwyz" engraved on the main knife and the patent certificate "Gesetzlich Geschützt" (protected by law) on the flat-head screwdriver seem to take us back in time and space in an instant. The latter patent shown on the knife was actually a major selling point in 1897. Unique features of the replica 1897 Limited Edition Swiss Army Knife include a pointed-style pocket knife, an original-shaped corkscrew, a drilling awl that is perfectly integrated into the handle, and a uniquely designed can opener.
This limited edition Swiss Army Knife, sold globally, is an ideal gift or collectible.
