Personally no saw makes it a no go for me, saw is essential for a Victorinox/multi tool. The extra edge retention of the blade doesn't mean 💩 to me. Victorinox farmer in alox is perfection for "bushcraft" the saw makes notching extremely easy, saw to the exact depth & then clear the material with the blade. Or pair the farmer with a larger blade & there's nothing you can't do.

What I do is I only use the small blade for everything(98% of the time its enough, unless I REALLY need to use the large) and then I know I ALWAYS have the large blade in near perfect fresh sharpened shape for use in a “real” woods or must have sharp situation…. If I carry a Case stockman(or the like) I use the small blade for everything, Spey blade for skin/scalpel(low angle high polished edge) use only, and save the large main blade for must use/need situations(fruit/food/wood) only… I find I get a lot more longer use out of ALL the blades on my pocket knife that way, and the small blade sharpens back so fast/don’t need to sharpen them all as often!!

In regaurds from its usefulness as a knife it seems to trump the victorinox. But far as its function as a multi-tool and ultility i think the victorinox huntsman is unbeatable, i use every tool of my huntsman, its not just a knife every tool on a victorinox has versatility. Putting a fork on whats supposed to be (im assuming due to them using titanium) a lightweight more utilitarian multi-tool is a bit of a red flag to begin with. Its like buying expensive lightweight hiking gear and then carrying bricks in your backpack to build a chair.

A few years back I purchased a Leatherman Charge made with Titanium and S30V blade for my daughter and myself. I think this was a limited run, though I'm not totally sure on that. At one point I did baton with it and while the wood I was using was not wet like what you were working with it did surprising well. Now, I'm not going to make a practice of using it in this way ever again unless it's vital, like end of the world shit, it did prove itself to be strong and durable. I've carried it everyday since, especially on camping trips in the BWCAW ( Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness in case you want to google it) Which is some of the more hardcore styles of camping only accessible via Canoe and portaging between lakes with some pretty extreme elevation shifts and hazardous terrain throughout. One never knows what they'll run into so adding a multitool to your EDC is highly recommendable. Hope you two are dry now. 😎 Cheers!!!

Angling the handle 90 degrees does nothing for the stress on the pivot. That's only for Svord Peasant like knives where you can grab the extended blade part to open the knife. Batoning is not a task for a folder in general. Cutting wedges is. I have no use for a fork or a corkscrew in the outdoors. Titanium handle scales and better edge retention on the steel could be nice. But as you mention the power of a SAK is that you can put a workable edge back on with some flat stone you find in nature. So for me it's still the SAK with alox handles for the outdoors.

And price per performance at nearly 4 to 5 times the cost between the two for like tooled options or less if you get a Vic with a lot more options I'd rather carry a 4 inch leather strop in my pocket made from a cut up old full grain leather belt(which I do}.

Your videos are entertaining but I think you convince me not to buy things more often than not. If I had to choose between a Victorinox with the same limited tools I would pick the MKM hands down for the blade steel but calling it the best multi tool or fire making or any tool is a stretch. The tool is too limited to call it anything other than a EDC tool for the city. A LOT of Victorinox's knives have tool options like the saw, awl, file that have 90 degree spines and a tool like a Victorinox Huntsmen is going to be way more versatile in the fire making role than a simple EDC tool is.
