Swiss Cutting Tools

The Swiss Army knife is also commonly known as the Swiss cutting tool.

Swiss manufacturers take pride in making quality knives as well as other cutting products such as watches. Several Swiss companies offer a variety of cutting products, including Victorinox and Wenger, both of which produce multiple varieties of cutting tools. The headliner, of course, is the Swiss Army knife, which can offer up to 33 different features.

Basic Cutting Tools

Swiss single-blade pocketknives come in red, silver and various other designs, such as pink camouflage and white with clovers. Some Swiss Army knives offer a single titanium blade along with flat and Phillips screw bits you can store in the knife when not using them and easily attach to the handle when you want to use them.

Multifunction Tools

If you're looking for a multi-cutting tool, the Swiss Army knife offers up to 33 features, including a can opener, fish scaler and and even a metal saw. While this knife has a lot to offer, it's a whopping 3-1/2 inches wide. If this size seems a little big to carry comfortably around in your pocket, you can choose from hundreds of smaller versions that include smaller blades, scissors, wood saws and nail files.

Tools for Around the House

Swiss cutting tools aren't just for outdoor use. The single-blade floral knife comes in a variety of colors and offers a 2-1/2-inch straight blade to assist you while creating arrangements. Some knives have 4-inch shears you can use for creating floral arrangements as well as any other cutting projects you need to tackle.

Cutlery Tools

Swiss kitchen knives offer several design and blade options.

Swiss cutting tools are useful in the kitchen as well. You can use the 3-inch cutting shears for cutting meats, while the Swissk itchen knives include paring, chef, bread-carving and steak knives. All Swiss kitchen knives come with a variety of options, including different blade materials --- stainless steel and ceramic, for example. You also have the option of choosing the material of the handle. Some handles are wooded, while others incorporate ceramic. You can also find Swiss knives with handles designed specifically for right- and left-handers.
