The best Victorinox Bottle Opener Tricks/ Swiss Army Knife Tips & Tricks (30/40) 

Un gusto ver sus videos, se aprende muchísimo con usted. Podría contar sobre usted, quien es FELIX IMMLER, ese GENIO, de otro planeta. YO como un gran fan de usted, me gustaría saber. EXITOS AMIGOTE 🙏💪👍

Felix, I *adore* your videos, even when they're things I already know about... You are *SUCH* a happy guy and we really share in the delight you have for the Swiss Army Knives. This alone makes it an absolute pleasure to watch, every single time!!

The wirestripper is great for pulling nails out of wood too. BTW the bottle opener is a good oyster opener as well :-)

Hallo Felix, ich bin immer wieder begeistert. Ich hoffe, Herr Hardy hat Deinen Kanal abonniert. @ Mr. Hardy: THIS is on of the BEST Guys! Honestly! Trust and belive me. LG Ralf

Your tricks are awesome! They need to put theese ideas on th victoronox website!

Very useful video. The 2 magnets you store in the gap of the bottle-opener, are they 1mm thick, each?

Cara, falo do Brazil. Adorei seus videos. Vou divulgar seu canal aqui no Brasil. Parabens!

Although much less impressive, I use my SAK screw driver to open pistachio nuts. It works great and I don’t have to struggle with the shells. Lol

That trick with the quarter-inch socket is great. I’ll try to remember it.

I ALWAYS appreciate your videos! I had no idea that the Evo models had that feature of locking the tool when pressing. I never thought about the bottle opener would fit a socket, neat!! Also, great tip on prying with the bottle opener and turning counter-clock wise for more stability. 👍🏻👏🏻😁 fantastic stuff!!

Excellent and useful tips, my friend. I am learning from you all the time. Thank you!

Hello from the United States. I just found your channel and started binge watching your videos. You're awesome!

I had much success this week using my mechanic SAK doing maintenance on my saltwater fishing reels. TY Felix for inspiring me to think outside the box for that project! Cheers

I'm sure you won't read this but if you do I want to say thank you. You share and educate in such an upbeat way, it's nice to see that in the world!

Hey guys! Last night I found very important feature of that new can opener! It can open oysters better that special knife!!!

I feel like it may be better for your knife if you were to carve a wedge out of a scrap/branch and just use your knife to get only enough space to fit the wedge in, then pound it in with a rock

Very cool ideas. Yeah Wenger definitely had the right idea with the locking screwdriver, I’m glad Victorinox brought that over to the EVO SAKs. The Phillips screwdriver on those models lock too, very useful feature.

Another Excellent video from the SAK Master . The best about this video = Felix is healthy , Happy and doing his thing .

Thumbs up on another great tips and tricks informative video.

While it does not "lock" the screwdriver, if both the can opener and bottle opener are open at the same time the bottle opener is much harder to close.

Felix and Nikos Doulas, are the best RU-vidrs, on Victorinox. Nikos is all functionality and tricks. No nonsense channel,that all the SAK users, should follow, to learn and get inspiration ,to finally understand their SAKS better. Also Nikos, is a genuine great person,really good guy. Hope more people ,could be like Nikos, then all the world, would be better.

I am loving the SAK videos. Do you know you can now buy a fire steel for your SAK, replacing the tooth pick with an item from America called the Firefly. I also keep a Nano Cord lanyard on my knife with a Canadian Jam Knot in so that I can quickly lock a blade on the knife. Hope I have given something back to you that is useful.

I would love to watch a video "Felix Immler featuring Nikos Doulas". Great points of view from the two of a kind masters of S.A.K.s! 👍

The bit trick is great; thanks for you and the greek gentleman. I'll check out a bit kit for my Tinker.

Como fanático de las SAK te felicito amigo Félix, saludos desde la Patagonia chilena

Fortunately, the Wenger knives had locking screwdrivers.

ever try using the fish scaler peeling potatoes and carrots? does a pretty good job

Always love your tips and tricks! As with any tool it’s not the size or strength, but how use it. I really like you showing the direction to pry with (counter clockwise) and seeing the reason why. I’ve used the Swiss Army knife to train my boys on proper knife handling. I’ve also taught some nephews and scouts as well. This is some really good information you’re giving out! Thank you so much! Great video!

I think i would cut two wooden wedges to force the nailed wood apart. Many thanks David in the U.K.

Amazing content Felix! 🎉

Wenger has nice lock tool system. Why Victorinox don't use this?

1000 ideen...und immer kommen noch neue dazu😉👍 liebe gruess lukas jenni.swiss

Hi Felix ! Every Friday is a good one with you and your Awesome tips and tricks. I go back into my coffin and wait till next Friday, At least now I know how to open the lid with my SAK the right way hahaha . Greets Martin.

Super Video, Felix wir immer! From my understanding you are absolutely right. When you use the bottle opener as you did in 6:40 you create torsion along the long axis of the bottle opener instead of creating a kink along the short axis of the opener. This way you can create much more torque before it breaks. And folding the handle is also super smart! Herzlichen Dank für diese erhellenden Tipps wie immer 👍🏼🤠💡 Liebe Grüße an den Bodensee, Martin 🤜🏼🤛🏼

Just amazing Felix!! I would also love a trick or two with a swisscard :) I have Swisscard classic and I am already thinking of putting firefly in it and I might use scissors fully opened as a striker. Just an idea if there is something else you could come up with.

Ich hab den flaschenöffner angeschliffen und verwende ihn für kleine stemmarbeiten

Hey man. What is your opinion on the victorinox explorer?is it better than fieldsmaster?

I believe the word is magnetize and not magnify

Like llke 👍👍🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷

Dear Felix, I work as a network technician. At one particular job, I realised tht I forgot to take my patch panel push tool/crimp tool. I successfully used my trusted victorinox hiker's can opener to crimp the ethernet cable wires in the patch panel. My question is...how can I make it better? Keep up the good work!

excellent tricks a greeting Felix!

The number of times my SAK has folded on me is very annoying. One time I was making something with a bunch of kids and I managed to slice my thumb open. Bit embarassing...but maybe they learned from it haha. Because I seem to be clumsy I use the swiss tool now....locking tools!

Only a sadomasochistic person would attempt assembly of an ikea wardrobe with only a Swiss army knife

So you put the 6mm magnet in the can opener and close the knife. You open the big blade and the magnet slips out of the can opener. You close the blade and everything seems normal. Then you try to open the can opener and bust your thumbnail because the magnet is stuck between the can opener and the blade. No thanks.

I used the large screw driver on the end of the bottle opener at the 90 degree angle to pry open pistachio nuts. For the first time I managed to open every single nut and didn’t break any of my fragile nails.

I carry a Swiss Tool Spirit every day. Will you have any tips and tricks series for that kind of Victorinox?

After that epidemia will be out, I will buy the big Victorinox. Officer series are great, but I think, I need the big one. See you! Very interesting!

Nothing beats a visual demonstration of why NOT do something. Now it's burned in my brain!

@6:12 is that Mrs. Swissarmyknife cleaning up one of your messes?

Another and most important use for me is to make sparks with the ferro rod. But you have to file it inside so its coarse/sharper.

6:25 You've nailed it!

Hello Felix. I recently discovered your channel, so I haven't watched all the videos yet. Maybe you could tell or show the video (if there is one on your channel) how to fix a blade or other tools side to side play? My Victorinox Climber awl, blade and can opener have small side to side play. (I hate it).. Thanks

Felix- Really enjoy your videos. Is there a favorite Swiss Army knife you like to carry because of the tool configuration?

Grreeeat Felix 👍 i love your videos...in a big fan of swiss army knife

I have found the wire stripper notch is perfect for sparking the Tortise Gear ferro rod that fits in the toothpick slot.

I love your videos dude

Opening a bottle of corona beer is no option? haha, bad joke. Nice one Felix. Greetings from Munich

I love your videos I think they're very very helpful and anyone who has a victorinox 91 mm or 111 mm victorinox should watch your videos they're very helpful they remind me of an '80s TV show in America called MacGyver he did everything with his Swiss army knife

Great! I always carry a Vic Tinker. I installed a needle after seeing another video of yours and have used it to change SIMcard and memory cards on phones and resetting routers on more than one occasion. With this, I like my knife even more! Is there a smart way to cut electrical wire with an ordinary Vic Tinker? Thank you 🙂

Thank you for the video! Glory to Ukraine!

Greattings from Brazil

Moin Felix, Schweizer Taschenmesser sind ja eh schon fantastische Werkzeuge...wenn man dann aber noch soviele Tipps bekommt,wie man diese Modelle sinnig & effektiv einsetzen kann....dann werden sie geradezu unschlagbar! :-) Big hug, Stephan

Hast du auch deutschen content?? Gruss

6:42 nach meinem physikalischen Verständnis ist bei deiner Methode der Hebel, den der belastete Schraubendreher gegenüber den Platinen hat, geringer, es ist also tatsächlich die schonendere Variante! Wieder mal ein ausgezeichnetes Video Felix, danke!

Ciao Félix buon sabato😇bel video come sempre✌

Wow, didn't know so far that counterclockwise move, thanks a lot for sharing, Felix! Ich lerne einfach nie aus, vor allem nicht, wenn ich Deine Videos schaue! Wenn ich das früher gewusst hätte, hätte ich mir jahrelangen Schulbesuch sparen können ... Mir fällt zum Flaschenöffner ein, dass einer meiner Bekannten, der im Gebrauchtwagenhandel arbeitet, sich da mit dem Dremel waagerechte Markierungen reingemacht hat. Damit er das Teil zum Messen der Profiltiefe an Autoreifen verwenden kann. Fand ich toll, auch wenn ich das nicht brauche - hab ja immer mein MiniChamp dabei, und da ist der kleine Schraubendreher für die Profiltiefenfeststellung zuständig ;-) Keine Ahnung wie sehr so ein paar Markierungen am Flaschenöffner die Produktionskosten bei Victorinox steigern würden, aber vielleicht wäre das ja eine Idee, die man ab Werk umsetzen könnte. Und die für alle Auto- und Motorradfahrer von Nutzen wäre ... Ach ja, und apropos Profil: ich benütz das Werkzeug häufig, um kleine Steinchen aus meinen Reifenprofilen zu pulen. Ideal für diesen Zweck ... LG, Robert

I was just experimenting with the methods you show here, and I discovered something: you can slip the small magnet into the 1/4" square adaptor and it keeps the screwdriver blade in much more securely. If you need to get the magnet out, you can easily shove it out from the other side using the tweezers. Hope I can give back a little tip to pay you back for the hundreds you've given us! Also I wanted to tell you, I've been a leatherman carrier for many years, and because of your videos I went out and got a Huntsman. I use it every day much more than I did the leatherman, and I'm very happy with it. Thank you for converting me!

Hey Bumblebee. I like tip #3, great idea. Bzzzzzz

Yet another interesting, informative and inspiring video! Stay cheerful, stay healthy!

I tried your suggestion of using the toothpick to pull open a blade on my knife and a piece broke off the end of the toothpick. I put the toothpick back in its slot not realising that it was cracked and the end broke off completely leaving the toothpick body stuck in the knife. Thanks a lot.

Thanks for ANOTHER great video my friend!!! 0:36 to 0:40 the more you stroke, the stronger it becomes!!!... Please excuse my naughty comment, I just couldn't resist! 🙈🙉🙊... (I know you also have a "naughty" sense of humor since I watched the video where you sucked the "mother's milk" out of the coconut)... (And I heard your comment afterwards) 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍👍👍

Hi from the US Felix! You made me fall in love with carrying my SwissChamp again. I have a small question, is there a good place to find the magnets you are using? Also, thank you again for the great videos!

Question - where do you put the second magnet, are they both under the bottle opener?

Thank you for all these tips, my Swiss Army Knife is so much more indispensable now.

Love your videos. In this video the CC icon is grayed out. Many folks have hearing difficulties, thus being able to read what you are saying is extremely helpful. The CC icon read "Subtitles/closed captions unavailable." Thank you.

Now you get an ABO, because I tried some of your Tricks and they worked, moreover you are a SUCH a sympathic and always smiling man.... that makes good mood and good vibrations to me ;);););) All the best for you!!!!! Greetings from Germany / Rheinbach, Henning

Great, I'm learning a lot,thanks!

Like desde Argentina. Algunos trucos bastantes obvios, otros muy ingeniosos y útiles. Se observan algunas ventajas de las ex Wenger, sin embargo FUE ADQUIRIDA por Victorinox. 40 años siempre llevé una NAVAJA Vic., hasta que que decidí probar de llevar una pinza o alicates, estilo Swisstool, en mi caso fue una Leatherman, no tengo presupuesto para la primera, donde empecé a valorar la gran ventaja de estas herramientas. Saludos.

What an industrious, inquisitive, ingenious, mind you must have to come up with all of these ideas. Thank you for your videos. I subscribed long ago.

These videos are made with great love. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Best Victorinox tutorials ever. Period.

No one knows the SAK more than you

I did not know about the locking screw driver blade on my Evo grip! Good to know!

Brilliant advice thank you 👍

I wouldn't call them tricks. Tips yes. Working solutions better.

Felix you convinced me to purchase my very first SAK(the Recruit) with all you tips and tricks videos. Thanks for another great demonstration of these very versatile tools.

Where you located you always have wonderful scenery behind you? Love your channel. I went out and picked up a Victorinox SAK Fieldmaster. I love it it goes everywhere with me. Your channel is amazing i habe learned so much on how i can use my SAK to the max potential. Thank you friend ✌

👉🏻. Hello Felix! Ohhhh, I can hear many complaints from mechanics, who put a pipe on the knife for leverage, then complain it bent. 🙂

Felix, great video! What size magnet fits in the SAK Compact model (combo can opener/screwdriver)?

Your videos and ideas are excellent!!

Hey mister Immler, I like the way you demonstrated that without-brain-prying while put your tounge out. Really funny that I laughed. Hahaha.

Thank you Felix .

Einfach nur genial

I think that the victorinox farmer x is the strongest victorinox Swiss army knife because of the side scales are made of aluminium also the cap lifter is much bigger and ticker I've got to Swiss army knifes that I use the victorinox fieldmasder with plus scales and the victorinox farmer x but if you done this with the victorinox farmer x there would be no movement from the sacels at all what would you think????🤔 Thanks

Kolejne super rozwiązanie 🆒🆒🆒

Great stuff felix. Simple tool knowledge to some who use tools every day, and a great learning video to those that are not so handy. Thanks felix good stuff

Thanks for another great video Felix are those 8 mm magnets 1 mm thick? 👍

Moin Felix! Du bist mein liebster „Hebelmeister“! 😉 LG Claus

Thanks for the great tricks. Very useful information. I will do these your way from now on. Best wishes.
