When every second counts, the luminescent handles and one-hand locking serrated blade make this knife easy to find and extremely efficient. The window breaker and disc saw are removable for easy replacement so they are always ready to work at optimal strength.

History and Heritage
In 1884, Master Cutler Karl Elsener opened a cutlery shop in Ibach, Switzerland. There, he and the cutlers’ union he formed produced the finest steel cutlery, finished with the now-famous proprietary edge preferred globally by professional and home cooks. In 1891, Karl supplied the Swiss Army with its standard issue Soldier’s Knife and in 1897 with the Officer’s Knife. In 1921, after the death of his mother, Victoria, and with the advent of stainless steel, then known as “inoxydable” and used in the production of his cutlery, Karl changed the name of the company to Victorinox. It is from those humble beginnings that a worldwide icon was born.
Today, Victorinox is still owned and operated by the Elsener family, and both the company and family still resides in the small village of Ibach, Switzerland.
Care Tips for Swiss Army Knives
The various tools are manufactured from high-quality steel with precisely tuned features that are essential for the particular application. The steel is tempered, annealed and polished to achieve the necessary hardness and provide optimum resistance to corrosion.
Sharpening
To re-sharpen your knife, use a whetstone at an angle of 15°– 20°. This will result in a cutting angle of 30°– 40°. If sharpening on a grinding wheel, always cool with plenty of water to avoid excessive temperatures and the resulting damages that may occur.
Cleaning
After you’ve used your Swiss Army Knife for all of its various applications, such as cutting open numerous boxes, you may notice that the blades begin to stick together. Opening and closing the blades in warm water several times will allow the tools to easily move again. Once they have dried, it is recommended, to apply a small drop of oil between the blade or tool shank and the spring. To optimally maintain the locking mechanism, periodically apply a drop of our recommended Swiss Army Knife Oil. Never put Swiss Army Knives in the dishwasher.
Enter the arena in style with the eye-catching Decimus, inspired by Rick Hinderer’s iconic Maximus. From its single-edge bayonet grind blade finished in BlackWash to its equally arresting stonewashed steel handle, the Decimus is a must-have for any knife collector or enthusiast. The handsome, charcoal-black, zigzag-textured overlays provide additional grip security, while the stonewashed filler tab and rivet further distinguish the Decimus as an EDC that is a cut above. This manual open features SpeedSafe assisted opening and a mirrored, flipper-like knob, providing added security against injury. Such a heroic-looking knife may appear to be untouchable; yet this accommodating everyday carry consistently delivers, from paring apples in the kitchen to marking trails in the forest. Whether the colosseum happens to be a busy workplace or a sprawling ranch, a rolling ocean or a rugged wilderness, be prepared for both everyday and emergency situations with Kershaw’s inimitable Decimus.
