Victorinox Penknives - the Original Multi Tools

In 1884, Karl Elsener opened his cutler’s workshop in Ibach-Schwyz. At this time Switzerland was still one of the poorer countries in Europe.In the early years Karl Elsener worked to combat poverty and unemployment in the Schwyz basin, creating jobs and helping stem the flow of emigration.

In 1891 he supplied the soldier’s knife to the Swiss Army for the first time. He went on to develop the Swiss Officer’s and Sports Knife – now the iconic Swiss Army Knife – in 1897, creating the foundation for a flourishing company that would be able to hold its own on the world stage.

The issues of environmental protection and sustainability have been a high priority at Victorinox for many years. Both at their own production centers as well as for their suppliers, this family company is vigilant about the sparing and efficient use of resources, as well as environmentally friendly production.

Victorinox even use waste heat from their factory for heating the factory, offices and 120 nearby apartments.
