Manufacturers Description:
First introduced in 1973, it has
been a prominent model in the Victorinox line for quite some
time. In 1987 it was sort or remade with the fishscaler/ruler
tool being replaced with the newly invented pliers, and also
gaining a wood chisel. Models made earlier than 1991 have no
Hook and the Scissors have a screw instead of the modern rivet
attachment. After its tool update, having been been chosen to
commemorate the Apollo 11 landing has continued to bring it a
lot of attention over the years.
The Victorinox Craftsman is a 91mm model, with a large tool
set in 6 layers and a historical connection to the American
Space Program. The current tool configuration was introduced
in 1987 featuring the newly added Pliers implement. The
current model is essentially the same but several of the tools
have evolved and the hook tool has been included since the
early 1990s.
