If your knife doesn’t say Victorinox or Wenger on the blade, then you’ve most likely picked up a knock-off. The only true black Swiss Army knives are manufactured by Victorinox and Wenger, and they will label the blade of the knife. If the price is “cheap” be cautious.

The shield has 5 corners and the top of the shield has a small depression in the middle of the top of the shield, similar to the depression seen on many police and fire badges. The outline of the shield is white, the center of the shield is red and the cross is white. Unfortunately, that’s not necessarily the case.

The Victorinox Rescue Tool is innovative and imaginative as you would expect a black Swiss Army knife to be. It’s already won “Knife of the Year” IWA International Knife Award for 2007.

As with most successful products, imitators and copycats have arisen, producing cheap imitations of both brands of black Swiss Army knives, taking money from unsuspecting consumers and damaging the reputation enjoyed by the black Swiss Army knife.

Something else that should be considered when a company is ordering promotional black Swiss Army knives is that they shouldn’t settle for the cheapest product. When a good company goes for the cheapest item, they are going to save money but the inexpensive item may make the person not want to deal with the company. Another thing that a company might think about doing with their promotional black Swiss Army knives is to donate them to groups that could make good use of them.
