The Victorinox Compact is a Swiss Army knife with 15 functions, a closed length of 91 mm, and a weight of 64 g. That places it among Victorinox's mid-size models — compact enough for everyday pocket carry, yet equipped well beyond a keychain-sized knife. The red cellidor handle houses a stainless steel blade, scissors, a can opener, a corkscrew, a mini screwdriver, and a ballpoint pen.
There's no locking mechanism — this is the classic Swiss slip-joint action, where each tool opens and closes manually via a nail nick rather than snapping into a spring-loaded lock. At 64 g it sits at the upper end of what ultralight hikers typically tolerate in a multitool; the broad toolset, especially the corkscrew and can opener, points this knife more toward travel, car camping, and daily carry than toward a stripped-down thru-hiking kit, where lighter single-purpose blades tend to win out.
