> A Spyderco Manix seems to cost about twice as much as a ~15 tool Victorinox. In what way is it better, given that it's just a knife? I guess it really depends on what you care about. If you have the Victorinox mostly for the tools, then it's obviously better than the Spyderco. If you have it mostly for the blade, then the Spyderco will be better. The edge will be sharper and will last longer. Also, the lock is more ergonomic and probably stronger. If you really like the Victorinox and don't care that much about the cork screw, a Leatherman wave/charge just has much better tools and blade than Victorinox, and you can get the blade in s30v for a bit better performance.
