Care & Maintenance
Victorinox knives are made with tempered, annealed, and polished stainless steel to ensure optimal hardness and corrosion resistance. To maintain peak performance, avoid dishwasher cleaning—hand wash with warm water if needed, especially if blades begin to stick. Gently open and close tools under warm water to loosen stiffness, then dry thoroughly. Apply a small drop of Swiss Army Knife Oil between each tool and its spring to preserve smooth operation. For sharpening, use a whetstone at a 15°–20° angle to maintain the correct edge geometry. If using a grinding wheel, cool frequently with water to prevent heat damage. Never force tools open or closed. With proper care, the Classic SD will remain a trusted tool for years.
Heritage & Craftsmanship
Since 1884, Victorinox has been synonymous with Swiss precision and innovation. Founded by Master Cutler Karl Elsener in Ibach, Switzerland, the company began by producing high-quality cutlery and later supplied the Swiss Army with its standard-issue Soldier’s and Officer’s Knives. After the introduction of stainless steel and following the passing of his mother, Karl renamed the company Victorinox—a tribute to her and a symbol of enduring quality. Today, Victorinox remains family-owned, continuing its legacy of craftsmanship in the same Swiss village. The Classic SD reflects over a century of expertise, combining traditional techniques with modern reliability. Packaged as a single unit with no additional accessories, it’s backed by a lifetime warranty, a testament to its enduring design and Swiss-made excellence.
