So I got my first ever Swiss Army Knife 2 months ago. It’s a Victorinox Huntsman with 14 tools (the one with the saw). I have not used it extensively yet, but I wipe it clean every time I use it.

I’m not aware of when and how often I should oil the moving parts and things like that. I would like to keep this knife in working condition for as long as I can.

    I’ve had mine for about 35 years and done minimal maintenance. I’m about to send it to Victronox for a “spa visit” because the red casing got cracked. They will do a full cleaning and overhaul (and repair) on it for a very reasonable price. They really do stand behind their work.

      Just hope the quality is the same…I’m not trading in my 2001 Craftsman sockets for repair now days and expecting the same quality… everything has changed
