It all began in 1897 when Karl Elsener patented the original Officer’s and Sports Knife, also known worldwide as the Swiss Army Knife. In 2022 Victorinox celebrates the 125th anniversary of this Swiss icon which stands for quality, functionality, innovation and iconic design and is the cornerstone in the brand’s history. To honor its heritage and continue the adventure beyond this historical moment, Victorinox launches a limited replica of the original Officer’s and Sports Knife. The Replica 1897 looks exactly like the original on the outside, but, on the inside, it represents the latest in technology.
