[QUOTE="alank2, post: 1975226, member: 108"] Hi, Victorinox IS the only swiss army knife. I've had many since I was 15 and they are a mandatory useful item. [b]One word of warning however[/b] - six is a very young age to manage one of these. They are very sharp and the blades are tensioned so they will snap shut when closed. Before turning him loose with a sharp one, you might get one and purposefully dull the blades so he can practice with it without getting cut. It is all too easy to have a finger in the way when you aren't experienced with them and cut yourself. Three models to consider: Tinker - if you want a basic model.

When I upgraded to this model I couldn't believe how I ever got along without the scissors.

When I upgraded to this model I couldn't believe how I ever got along with the pliers in addition to the scissors.
