I will stick to my old trusty Victornox Swiss Officers knife. Way more useful, and I get 20 to 25 years service out of one.

I once sent my Victorinox to the US office for a repair, they replied that my knife "required repairs that cannot be performed in this country" so I could choose to receive a new knife at no charge or to have my knife sent to Switzerland for repair which could take many months. Obviously I was supposed to choose the former, but I chose the latter. Six months later I received a little package from Switzerland with my knife, which had been completely disassembled, polished, reground, new handles, completely restored - but there were the remnants of some formerly deep gouges in metal that confirmed it was my knife rather than a new one. No charge. I don't know if Victorinox customer service remains that good now.
