Nothing rounds out an everyday carry like a Victorinox Swiss Army Knife. Not only do you get plenty of utility and functionality that fits in your pockets, but thanks to their variety of vibrant colorways, they make excellent additions to any EDC. For Black Friday and the holidays this year we’ve partnered with our friends at Victorinox and picked out our favorite new tools and gear that would make great gifts for the EDCer on your list. From a sport-inspired timepiece ensemble to a stealthy collection of multi-tools and even a vibrant knife that’s are perfect fits for the season, there’s something in this guide for you.
Onyx Black Collection
Thanks to a new process—polispectral (PS) coloring—that gives a covert, high-performance coating to a high-utility multi-tool, Victorinox’s new Onyx Black collection brings three of their most popular models to the forefront by dialing the colors back. Three of Victorinox’s popular models across three sizes make up the Onyx Black collection. The Signature Lite offers a complete EDC in itself with its 8 functions including a knife, pen, and flashlight. The Spartan represents Victorinox’s 91mm line and offering a capable tool with 12 functions within its medium-sized frame, including two larger blades, drivers, openers, and the usual pair of slots for a toothpick and tweezers. Last but certainly not least is the Ranger Grip 55, representing Victorinox’s large tool line and offering the biggest polispectral platform yet among their multi-tools. Among its 12 functions, its 3.8“ locking blade is its key feature, letting you take on your biggest everyday tasks when paired with its grip-focused polyamide handles
The polispectral process adds a layer of chromium oxide to the stainless steel components of each tool, producing not only a smooth and glossy dark finish, but also an extra layer of durability and depth to the tools’ designs. The resulting monochrome tone adds an exotic touch and collectibility to tools you may have already seen before, and fits perfectly with any EDC, especially one with an all-black theme in mind.
Hunter Pro Red Alox
Just in time for the holidays, Victorinox is giving their Hunter Pro the Alox treatment in their iconic red colorway. It gives this rugged, outdoor-ready knife some high-visibility on the campsite while also making it a stylish statement piece in your urban EDC. The Hunter Pro Red Alox is not to be confused with its smaller cousins in the Victorinox lineup. It was designed for the outdoors, which means that the use case for the Hunter Pro is more than opening packages in the office. When the cutting jobs get tougher, the knife needs to remain up to the task. That’s why this comes with 3.8” drop-point blade and a matching 5” handle for maximum comfort while slicing. The ribbed Alox scales (aluminum with a protective layer of anodic oxidation) also help with grip so every cut is taken with confidence. The lockback mechanism also keeps the blade securely in place when you don’t need it, but deploys in a pinch thanks to the large thumbhole.
Making gear rugged enough for the outdoors doesn’t mean that carrying it has to be inconvenient. Victorinox knows a thing or two about designing for your pockets after all, it comes with a removable clip for deep pocket carry. If you want to be more discreet it also comes with a paracord lanyard which makes it easier to retrieve from your pocket or bag and also might come in handy if you ever find yourself in an emergency situation.
FieldForce Sport Chrono
The FieldForce is Victorinox’s take on the racing-inspired sport chronograph, offering the classic 3-dial chrono face and tachymeter scale bezel in striking high-visibility colorways as well as more traditional and understated options. At its heart is a Swiss-made analog quartz movement with chronograph and date complications, housed in a 42mm steel case with a screw-in caseback and under a scratch-resistant, triple-coated, and anti-reflective sapphire crystal. The quartz movement gives the watch more precise timekeeping, and large hands and numerals with color accents paired with Super-LumiNova lume give excellent legibility.
You have the option of a genuine rubber sport band or the classic steel bracelet to match your activity and the rest of your carry, with eight total combinations to suit your style. 10ATM/100 meters of water resistance also means the FieldForce is ready to be your reliable timekeeper, no matter the weather condition. And to round out your EDC even better, this latest addition to the FieldForce line with a striking hi-vis orange band comes bundled with a Spartan PS multi-tool with 12 functions.
