Dumb idea. The whole idea of the Swiss Army knife is to have many tools in a convenient package. That does not fill that bill. No one would want to carry that. A nice $1200 novelty item I suppose.

It looks nine inches long and 20 inches wide.

Kind of hard to use, I would imagine.

and people wonder why switzerland has maintained is independence and neutrality for so many hundreds of years -- its because of cutting edge defensive weapons like this one -- no one can mount an effective defense against the spork.

It just seems so much more complicated than the French Army Knife.

Appears to be the result of a defense department contract. "Utility knife to cover all eventualities."

I've always got my "small" one with me, but I couldn't imagine carrying that big monstrosity anywhere.

Brilliant advertising trick.

Look for massive new mention of the little known Wenger swiss knife maker.

neat toy. I'll stick with my leatherman PSTII for everyday use, though.

Completely useless. A freak. A gimmick.

I want one.
