The complete weight of the SwissChamp SOS Set is 10.02 oz/ 284 g-not much more than a similarly sized multi-tool such as the Gerber Suspension (8.96 oz/ 254 g). The SwissChamp weighs in at 6.52 oz/ 185 g the kit items and pouch add another 3.5 oz/ 99 g. The body of the SwissChamp is 3.6 in/ 9.14 cm long. The SwissChamp-generically known as a Swiss Army Knife or SAK-is in reality a multi-tool that features (according to Victorinox) 28 separate tools. Victorinox identifies the kit pieces in a separate informational sheet. The knife is housed in the main compartment of the leather pouch, while pieces of the survival kit are housed in flapped pockets on the right and left sides of the pouch as well as in an internal pocket in the flap that covers the main pocket where the SwissChamp resides. A belt loop on back allows one to wear the complete kit as one would a sheathed folding knife or multi-tool. The knife and kit items are housed in a dark gray utilitarian leather pouch that features two covered side pockets and an interior pocket in the top flap, all secured with hook-and-loop closures. This particular model is one of a number of kits Victorinox is offering at present that are based around certain models of its knives. The concept is a sound one: a survival kit in a package scarcely larger than a multi-tool pouch.
