 Incredibly usefulSep 17, 2009
By Douglas A. Greenberg
I own a variety of multitools and Swiss Army Knives (sorry, I'm a gadget freak), and this is a perennial favorite. The Outrider is equipped with a fine set of tools, including the always-useful scissors and a toothy saw for hacking off troublesome small tree branches and such. Since the cutting blade is non-serrated, it's easy to sharpen. Swiss Army Knives don't use the most expensive stainless steel, but the people at Victorinox have chosen this alloy carefully and with regular maintenance the blade can be kept razor-sharp.
I also have come to prefer a knife with a locking mechanism on the cutting blade; it's a terrific safety feature. Despite what some people might claim, the blade locking mechanism on the Outrider is reliable and easy to use.
The knife is larger than the standard Swiss knives that many people carry, but it's contoured nicely and fits snugly in a pocket. It also includes the standard toothpick and tweezers; if these are misplaced you can buy replacements from Victorinox.
People should select their particular knife model based upon its size and the selection of tools that best fits their needs. The Outrider has proven an excellent choice for me, and perhaps for you, too.

Big, but not too big.Apr 26, 2010
By Robert R. Franke
After carrying a Vic Champion Plus or SwissChamp for a while I was interested in getting back into the Vic 111 mm stable of knives. I'm a big man, 6'3" tall, 275#'s, I like a big knife with as many functions as possible, that is without a knife that's too big and heavy and that pulls my pants down when worn in a pouch on my belt. My major requirement in a SAK are three things, scissors, in line Phillips driver, and a corkscrew to place my mini driver for my glasses. In the VIc Outrider I get all those plus a punch awl, can opener/small flathead, large flathead/cap lifter/wire crimper and a true, usable saw as a bonus, all in a compact package not anywhere too heavy or bulky for EDC. Buy this knife if you value what I do in a multi tool, carry a pair of dedicated pliers if you feel you must as no maker provides an adequate all in one package IMHO.

 I dont like the locking mechanismJul 10, 2008
By Joseph Scalia
"jscalia"
I bought this item because I love the Trekker model but it was missing the sizzors which I find very useful. The Outrider is supposed to be like a Trekker with the addition of the sizzors. However, there is no comparison. The Trekker has a much more solid blade locking mechanism (liner lock) and feels very secure in comparison to the Outrider which has a flimsy button release locking mechanism. The Outrider just does not have that nice solid lock up feel that the Trekker has. Too bad. I returned this knife.

Great Knife at a Competitive Price!Feb 28, 2010
By Hedonism Bot
Love the knife! Perfect tool when out on the lake or trail. Would also be great for use as a supplement to a fixed blade when minimalist backpacking/extended-stay hunting. The new design is comfortable in the hand whether making fuzz-sticks or cleaning fish. Despite what some have said, the lock is solid. My only complaint is that I would prefer the main blade to have been positioned in the center of the tool. For example, rather than Knife, tool, tool, tool, I would have preferred tool, tool, Knife, tool, tool.

 Good multi-use knifeApr 26, 2008
By S. VanCott
This knife has all of the features I was looking for without too many extraneous ones. I really like that the big knife blade locks. You don't have to worry about it closing on your hand while you are using it. The scissors are also very useful.
One downside to this knife is the weight. It is made very well, but is fairly heavy for its size. Unfortunately it is too heavy for me to carry in my pocket.
