Many people don’t know what the hook is for in the Victorinox Swiss Army Knife. In fact, it is a very useful tool that can perform many different tasks
Never underestimate ANY of the tools on your Swiss Army Knife. The Swiss have a LONG history of frugality & resourcefulness. The SAK is legendary for many good reasons...For those of you out there that don't have a SAK, PLEASE, treat yourself to one. Get the biggest & best that you can afford. It will be a purchase that will last you a lifetime and, you can pass on the heirloom to your kids & grand kids. I assure you, you will smile every time you find a "new" use for your knife...I have one that was my grandfathers and I'll treasure it until the day I die. The knife blades are crazy sharp. (as ALL blades should be...IMO)...Kudos to Victorinox for making such an incredible life tool
I rely on the hook to tension my boot laces all the time. As for untying knots, the corkscrew can get into tighter knots. Interestingly, I used the corkscrew to pull on a small zipper tab that the hook was too large to engage. I really appreciated this video.
Ordered my 3rd Swiss Army knife today. Can’t wait to receive it, very high quality but also great value. I will use the hook as a phone prop in the future I’m sure. Thanks again for this video!!
Awesome video but I feel like an idiot. I was looking to find out how to use my "hook" when out fishing... not to actually snag a fish, but to remove the hook more easily/safely, which is what someone had led me to believe to too was for. *Sigh*.
I may have to reconsider that the hook is the most worthless tool... I'd still like to see them put a couple fine tooth files on the sides of it... ( A nail file and a fish hook sharpener)

I wear thick wool sweaters outdoors. When a branch pulls out a wool thread I use the hook from the inside to pull the thread back in.

I was thinking the exact same - the corkscrew can do a lot of the things that the hook does as well.

These videos prove that there's no reason to continue to question the uses of all the instruments.
And all this time, I had a magical hook in my pocket. Thank you!
Now I need an sak with a hook lol, great demo of is many functions
I'm hooked
Fantastic Felix, many thanks.
I use the hook to open and close the hot-water heater cover on my RV.
Some great ideas here that I had not thought of for my #SAKedc or #SAKAlox cheers from #FlickrSpelio
what model knife is that?
Never knew the phone trick.
basically, it makes your life harder
cool
you forgot the trick with a jigsaw blade
👍🏼😎
1st thing 1st i need another swiss army knife to open this hook.
You are using it wrong then. Theres a tip to take it out easily
Use the top of the toothpick to open the tools on your swiss army knife if they are hard to open. Then clean and oil it.
