The Victorinox Huntsman and Huntsman Lite Swiss Army Knives

I've been using the Huntsman Lite for a few months now and Go over some of the difference between that and the regular Huntsman. I enjoy both and they both have uses for difference scenarios. The Swiss Army Knives are some of the best tools you can have!

I am a lifelong Swiss Army Knife user & collector. In the 91mm size (I have SAKS in most sizes from 58mm to 130mm in my collection ) the Huntsman is my favorite. I currently have 13 Huntsman & 3 Huntsman Lites. 3 of my Huntsman are unused collectables with decorative scales & 10 in my active EDC rotation, they include 1 SilverTech scaled, 1 Navy Cammo scaled, I each of Rubi Red & Sapphire Blue regular scales & 6 with Plus scales - Black, Rubi, Sapphire, Blue, Yellow & White. Of my 3 Huntsman Lite one is retired - its the same model as yours with the Grey battery housing & the original white LED light (bought it 2nd hand 8 years ago & had good use out of it ) my other 2 are the newer version with the transparent battery housing & a much stronger white LED light that is on all post 2019 models . I bought one in Dec 2020 & the other in Dec 2021 when they were on the annual year end clearance sale from my local Victorinox dealer at 50% discount & have kept one with its Rubi Plus scales & fitted the other one with Sapphire Plus scales. IMO its hard to beat a Huntsman or Huntsman Lite for combined urban & countryside EDC both on the range of tools carried, easy to pocket carry size & value for money. I have other 91mm carry SAK's in my EDC rotation - the Ranger, the Mountaineer & the Explorer but a Huntsman variant is the one I most frequently carry.

This has been my EDC. I have 3 of them. 1 brand new, one pristine one at my bedside, and a worn one as the one I carry. All of them have the newer light

Anything with a corkscrew, I’ve added the glasses screwdriver & the “tinder” (even my leatherman’s :) )

The light makes a good tent light for finding thing without disturbing others.

I edc a victorinox deluxe tinker, what are your thoughts on the plier tool?

[MrDDiRusso]

The huntsman lite, in my opinion, is almost perfect. It has less bulk and weight than the swiss champ but retains most of the useful tools. It's missing the file/saw.

I like both knives I think the translucent scales are beautiful I have a champ onlyAnd I added the 3rd slot without removing the scale should be easier for you to do with a translucent scale get your toothpick back I've also heard that the light module is removable from the knife I'm not sure if that's true on all models or if that was just model that I saw the vid on But as far as what I think I think they're both beautiful knives

[lucymead]

I also have
come to use the huntsman light all the time for get to turn the lights on that knife gives enough light to use my keys I'm constantly finding it to be handy

I have the Rambler for daily carry, the Huntsman with toothpick ferro rod, tinder and micro driver. I replaced the scales for plus scales, giving me the pen.

Wish the huntsman lite had a file instead of a saw... thanks for the review!

I use the hook to pull out the push in opening on boxes ie Arm & Hammer Baking Soda box, laundry soap.

The light makes a ton of sense. Everyone who spends time in the outdoors carries a high power flashlight. However there is great use in a low power light for close up work that doesn’t give away your position or totally destroy your night vision. Along with all the other implements this knife has, the light was the final deciding factor for me.

[MrSTOUT]

I have a Huntsman that I got as a gift years ago. It doesn't have the parcel hook. When did they add that??

[viciousKev]

I would have to swap the scissor for a plier for edc
