Farmer X Alox, Swiss Army Pocket Knife, Medium, Multi Tool, Camping, 10 Functions, Blade, Screwdriver 3 mm, Bottle Opener

A very nice pen knife. It is heavier than the standard models with the plastic handle but it feels chunky and good to hold. Tge only downside is that the Alox handle doesn’t take the useful tweezers but it’s worth the trade off to have a chunkier tool and it doesn’t get scratched like the plastic handle versions .

I have the Farmer Alox, which I thought was the best penknife ever, then saw they did the Farmer Alox X, which now includes Victorinox's brilliant scissors! I had to get one and I'm more than glad I did. Although it adds another layer and therefore makes it slightly more bulky, the usefulness of the scissors makes up for that 100 times over. Strangely the blade I probably use the most is the fantastic awl/reamer. Unlike the standard SAK's, this one comes out in line with the handle rather than at 90 degree's to it and is very sharp along it's edge and point. I use it for opening packages, making pilot holes for screws, scoring, marking, scraping and umpteen other jobs. The Alox body feels great in the hand (I often find myself just fondling it!) It wont break if you drop it, like plastic scales can and I rarely use the tweezers or toothpicks in the standard models anyway. I have several other models of SAK and this is the one I always carry and never feel under-tooled. It is a bargain for it's quality and would be at twice the price.

Building a collection of these now, superb quality nice and weighty and feel like will last a lifetime

Love it , but when my brother went to buy one 2 days later, the price increased by 50 %. Very odd.

Like a normal Swiss Army knife but on steroids

Typical Victorinox quality, all tools open with a satisfying snap and is just lovely to use. The Alox models are a step above the celidor (red) Swiss Army knives with more heavy duty tools. The awl is excellent and the blade super sharp. Bought for less then £42 and what a bargain

I bought this as it seems to be the daddy of the Alox lineup from Victorinox. It’s basically got everything in a robust pocket knife that you would need day to day. Size is spot on and feels strong and durable. Appearance is like other Swiss Army knives, I.e none aggressive. Out of the box it’s sharp and ready to use. It’s well worth the price tag for an easily pocketable tool.

I think this may be my favourite Swiss Army Knife! Find the size and weight no issue for EDC, but can understand this may not suit everyone. The quality is as expected from Victorinox, they just always get it right. I prefer the alox scales to traditional cellidor, for a four layer SAK this does not feel bulky when handling it. The only slight negative is the position of the keyring, it can dig into the hand due to its positioning. It seems to be slightly different angle to other SAKs I own. I considered the Farmer but could not do without the scissors so opted for the Farmer X, I do not regret this as they are one of my most used tools and the alox scales keep the knife slim even with an extra layer. To sum up, you should buy this knife.

Compre esta navaja como curiosidad en sus utilidades, las primeras impresiones son de buena calidad, con el tiempo estaré en posibilidad de tener una opinión exacta del producto.

A beautifully made little multi tool. Alox scales, four layer. Tools are : One thicker than usual main blade, saw, scissors, bottle opener prybar/screwdriver, can opener/philips head screwdriver, awl. Should give a lifetime of use. I carry mmine everywhere.

O produto é de excelente qualidade, assim como todos os outros produtos da Victorinox O canivete Farmer X, é bastante robusto e muito bem projetado para as minhas necessidades cotidianas. Faço apenas uma ressalva quanto as embalagens dos produtos e deixo a minha sugestão para que a fabricante Victorinox após o controle de qualidade final, inclua um lacre de segurança em todas as embalagens com seus produtos, dando assim uma maior confiabilidade e segurança aos compradores, independentemente de onde o produto esteja sendo vendido.

Top c’est un victorinox
