In 1884, Karl Elsener opened his cutler’s workshop in Ibach-Schwyz. At this time Switzerland was still one of the poorer countries in Europe.
In 1891 he supplied the soldier’s knife to the Swiss Army for the first time.
1897 was the year he went on to develop the Swiss Officer’s and Sports Knife – now the iconic Swiss Army Knife – creating the foundation for a flourishing company that would be able to hold its own on the world stage.
Today, Victorinox is a global company with five product categories: Swiss Army Knives, Household and Professional Knives, Watches, Travel Gear and Fragrances. The Swiss Army Knife is the core product and has a pioneering role in the development of all product categories.
