Hint about opening the battery compartment easier. Use a paper clip to extend it to a "Poker" shape. There is a hole on the opposite side where you can insert the paper clip and open the compartment instead of using the "watch tool" 3:45.

I also have this nice, handy knife. The Victorinox instruction tells how to open the batery's compartment. There are small hole on the scales. You can use a needle to upen compartment. I used pin from my Victorinox Compact. But author have not read instruction before to make video. 😀

Thank you White Glove. My wife gifted me with this knife over ten years ago. The case fell off the side with the battery. I used gorilla glue to keep together. I received a duplicate from my elfster at Christmas. I did not know if I got a fake as I could not see how I was to able install the battery. Of course after your excellent detailed video I was able to see the opening. I pried open the battery door. I did not pay enough attention to see which way the battery goes into the slot. I lost and used a paper clip to push out the battery to flip it over. I have a my light working. Thank you very much for making this video.

The light and pen make this a great keychain backup, at barely more weight than the classic. It would be nice to see a slightly larger model with one of those li-ion batteries that recharges with a usb cord.

Personally I’d opt for either the Midnight Manager and gain the very useful Phillips head screwdriver with the magnetic tip and bottle opener or the Manager forfeiting the light but gaining a tweezers. These days there are so many cool and potent little keychain flashlights that completely outperform the penlight on this knife. It is worth noting that on both the midnight manager and the manager you can flip out the screwdriver and use it as a support for the pen when writing.

I think I'm going to buy this just to try the torch and because I don't have a silver sak & it looks quite sc-fi. I tossed and turned over getting the Midnight Manager but I already have a plain manager though if I like the torch then may go a for a MM in future. I don't know. Hard to choose between them so basically the colour decided it and that this Signature slightly slimmer? I suppose I really need to buy both or none as I already have 4 58mm saks and plenty of small torches?

There are some 74mm Victorinox's. There's the Ambassador. It has the same tools as the classic, just a little bit larger. That might be what you're looking for. It doesn't have the pen/light, but I don't think any of the 74mm versions have that. Here's a link for the Ambassador if you want to check it out: amzn.to/2DBoLPq

Oh. Yes. Absolutely. In order to replace it, just extend the pen, then grab the pen part sticking out and pull. It will come right out. If it's tough to get a grip on it, you can use the pliers from another Swiss Army Knife and grip it lightly and pull. Then slide the new replacement refill back in. When I did it with mine, I had trouble getting a good grip on the pen tip, thus the SAK pliers. :)

You have to hold it down. The Swiss Army Knives that have the flashlight not on the scales (like the Cybertool Lite) have an on/off switch if that's what you are after. There's also a Traveler Lite and a Spartan Lite with the on/off light.

You gotten me watching it again. :) As for the survival SAK with light/saw and firerod, they don't offer it exactly, but you can get there. The Huntsman Lite (amzn.to/2PF0wkI link to Amazon) that has the light with an on/off switch, saw and usual other SAK goodies. There's a company called Tortoise Gear that makes a firerod designed to replace the toothpick in your SAK (video I did for it: kzitem.info/news/bejne/kqSqz4BqgKSYq5w). A three pack of those firerods runs around $15 so they aren't too bad of an upgrade. Link to the Firefly on Tortoise's site if you want to check it out: tortoisegear.com/product/firefly-3-pack-pre-order/ The are out of stock on the Neon Glow in the dark ended one, but they have the white glowing one in stock. Also, they glow in the dark. Another thing I can't resist. :)
