A reamer/punch has a lot of uses. Pre-punching holes in leathercraft, drilling a hole in a stick for firecraft or trap making.
I personally hate semi serrated knives. The only uses for a serrated blade are cutting cordage and cutting a steak and both those jobs can be done with a plain edge if one knows how to get it and keep it sharp. Something I will be posting a youtube video about sooner or later.
I like the bright color and the locking blade and I can tell you from first hand experience that the saw on Victorinox SAK work well cutting wood for a fire or shelter. You can even cut a branch thicker than the length of the saw blade if you exercise care and have practiced it.
Thanks for the heads up. I’ll search and see if they have a plain edge version.
