About this deal

However, the MiniChamp weighs only about 45 gms. Compared to some other heavy and bulky multi-tools that other companies are marketing as keychain multi-tools, the MiniChamp is, in fact, quite small and light. There is no point in comparing the individual tools side-by-side as all the tools in both the MiniChamp and the Micra are very small and one will not have any significant advantage over the other.

The MiniChamp is kind of unique in terms of size, weight and functionality. The only other keychain multi-tool I find comparable to the Victorinox MiniChamp is the Leatherman Micra.Victorinox MiniChamp is one of the models of the 58mm Swiss Army Knife (SAK) series. It is a compact keychain-sized Swiss Army Knife that has 10 tools and can perform 18 functions. The MiniChamp is the largest SAK with the most functions in the Victorinox 58mm series. I have dozens of SAKs of various sizes (some decades old) and all of them are in working condition. I trust in Victorinox quality and know that I will be using the MiniChamp for years.

Like all small tools, the MiniChamp also has its shortcomings. However, I will mention just a few that bother me sometimes. I never gave much thought about owning the Victorinox MiniChamp until I saw a friend carrying it in his keychain. Especially, when he used it as a pen to jot down a few things on a piece of paper, I was convinced I needed a MiniChamp. After all, who doesn’t need an emergency pen?

If you are okay with the bulk, there is probably nothing else in this weight and size category that can do as many things as the MiniChamp can do. And unlike many other multi-tools, the MiniChamp is quite easy to clean. Being a minimalist, I do not like carrying useless tools. In this sense, I would have loved it if the cuticle pusher was replaced by something more useful, or not added to the MiniChamp at all. But that is just me, you may find it useful.

Yes, the MiniChamp has three blades. I do not know whether I will need that many blades in such a small multi-tool, but it is what it is. However, this confuses me often as I am accustomed to opening the knife from outside in the Classic or the Rambler. Hopefully, with more practice, this won’t be an issue for long. Maybe, I will use one of the blades more keeping the other one razor-sharp only for special occasions.Mercedes AMG F1 W13 E Performance 63 George Russell F1 Grand Prix de Bahrain 2022 Minichamps 417220163 This tool also has hard-to-see ruler markings on one side, with both inches and millimeter markings. This might come in handy sometimes. The third blade is the most interesting! Victorinox doesn’t call it a blade at all. They call it an orange peeler (really?).

The scissors are the most used tool for me in any SAK. The MiniChamp being a keychain SAK, the scissors are quite tiny. MiniChamp Alox: This one replaces the Cellidor scales with Alox scales. The Alox SAK models are regarded as better built than their normal counterparts. They are also better looking, but also cost more. The second blade, which they are calling an emergency blade, has a slightly different design but is as sharp as the first one. I have also heard it being called a letter opener. For my kind of usage, I will just consider it as an extra blade.Mercedes AMG F1 W12 E Performance 44 F1 Winner Grand Prix d'Angleterre 2021 Lewis Hamilton Minichamps 110211144 The flashlight is powered by a battery which is replaceable. This model is also sometimes called the MiniChamp Lite. Minichamps released three models in scale 1:43 from the high quality material resin with the vehicles of Pérez, Bottas and Zhou.
