 Missing the good ole' days. Jul 12, 2010
I remember years ago when Swiss Army knives seemed to be the holy grail of pocket knives. Those days are gone. The manufacture of these is weak for a daily user, but for the money, I have got to say that it's an OK knife. Everything in it is functional and the edges are sharp. Most of it seems solid except for the main blade, which feels like plastic and likes to wobble.
 An Excellent Tool Jul 06, 2010
Let me begin by saying that the Victorinox Trekker is not a pocket knife. The free Classic knife is a pocket knife - I never go anywhere without it. The Trekker, however, is too large and too intimidating to carry around for day-to-day use. If you are only looking for something to open packages, tighten small screws, and file your nails, you should get a smaller Swiss Army Knife.
If, on the other hand, you do any sort of serious outdoor work, the Trekker is perfect. I have been working with the National Park Service over the summer, and I don't go out into the woods without mine. I've used it for taking tree samples, making emergency crutches, repairing small mammal traps, killing ticks, starting fires, and making lunch. It is the perfect mix of a full-sized knife with all the handy extras one expects from Victorinox.
In conclusion, the Trekker is a bit of a serious knife for a more serious user. If you are looking for something a bit more substantial than the average multi-tool, it does its job perfectly.
Handy in the garden and around the yard Jul 01, 2010
This multi-tool is built to the same high standards as other Swiss Army knives I've owned, but this one is more in the 'tool' category. I find that it's very useful for garden and yard work; the serrated blade and wood saw are very useful for sawing off small (and some not-so-small) branches.
I especially like the locking serrated blade for weeding: if I can't yank a weed out by the root, I can use this to dig down and saw it off an inch or two below ground (which is usually enough to keep it from re-sprouting). And the blade is about twice as thick as you'll find on a standard Swiss Army knife, so I'm not worried about breaking it.
The "Free classic knife" that comes with it is a miniature version of a Swiss Army knife -- small enough to fit in any pocket -- but is surprisingly useful.

Great knife which could be even better Jun 23, 2010
The Trekker is the first Victorinox to feature one handed opening and a locking blade. This is very handy and makes the knife safer to use - a major reason why I bought it.
Opening the blade with one hand is a bit slow and you should be careful. Using a hole to open a locking blade was pioneered by knifemaker Spyderco, and this Victorinox looks clumsy in comparison with the quick and fluid opening of any Spyderco. That said, the lock is very solid.
Another issue is that the blade is 2/3 serrated and the whole edge is beveled only on one side. I bet this will make sharpening harder when the time comes. I really wish they had issued this knife with a plan edged blade, beveled on both sides like any normal knife.
A great tool is the locking beer bottle opener with a large screwdriver tip. It is longer and thicker than those on the "regular" Swiss Army knives, and can be used to pry things.
The other tools included are useful for urban or outdoors use: wood saw, can opener with small screwdriver tip, philips screwdriver, awl, tweezers (very high quality and useful) and toothpick. Since this is a prototype for the German Army knife, there is no corkscrew unfortunately - German soldiers probably prefer beer to wine :)
You could also find the same set of tools on the Victorinox Hiker, which is smaller, lighter, and cheaper, but does not have one-handed locking blades. Very similar sets of tools can also be found on Victorinox Camper and Farmer. All of those models are more pocket friendly.
This set also includes the Victorinox Classic mini knife which is great to have on a keychain. Its scissors and nail file are really handy.

Handy knife May 28, 2010
This Swiss army knife is very usefull.
The blade is thicker than the usual Swiss Army knife. The selection of tools is good.
A bit heavy but the knifes abilities offset that problem.
