Victorinox Swiss Army knife Rescue Tool
Video. Knife of the Year 2007 !
In 1897 the Original Swiss Army Knife was
created in the small village of Ibach,
Switzerland. Since that time, Victorinox has
become well-known in more than 100 countries
for precision, quality, functionality and
versatility. This century old heritage has
been extended to Swiss Army Watches, which
reflect the ingenious design and outstanding
durability Victorinox has come to stand for
over the years. Uncompromising craftsmanship
makes these watches worthy to carry the
"cross and shield" emblem that symbolizes the
legend of Victorinox and the Swiss Army
Brand.
Whether you're going around the corner or
around the globe, classically styled Swiss
Army watches will make sure that you're
equipped for life's adventures. No matter
what those adventures might be.
The VICTORINOX "Swiss Army Knife" is over 100
Years Old. This useful pocket Multi-Tool was
legally registered on June 12, 1897. Over
34,000 of these pocket tools with the
distinctive Swiss cross leave the factory in
central Switzerland each day. Ninety per
cent are for export to over 100 different
countries and serve as ambassadors for
Switzerland.
Karl Elsener, the company founder, wanted to
create work in sparsely industrialized
central Switzerland and counter the
emigration spawned by unemployment. To go
from hand-crafting to industrial production
was at the time adventurous and required
enormous determination. Today, this family
business in Schwyz provides 950 jobs.
After the soldier's knife, which every
recruit receives upon entering the army, Karl
Elsener developed a new, elegant and light
weight pocket knife, with six practical
tools. He called this new model the "Officers
and Sports Knife".
After an unparalleled success story around
the world, the VICTORINOX "Swiss Army Knife"
is even orbiting the earth as part of the
standard equipment of the Space Shuttle Crew.
The knife has also been successfully proven
on expeditions: in the arctic ice of the
North Pole; on the highest peak on earth,
Mount Everest; in the tropical rain forests
of the Amazon, and elsewhere. Time and again,
it has been a life saver in situations of
extreme danger and great need. The New York
Museum of Modern Art and the State Museum for
Applied Art in Munich have selected it for
their collection of excellence in design,
and, since Lyndon B. Johnson, US presidents
present guests with VICTORINOX pocket knives.
Today, the "Officers' Knife" is available in
over 100 different models. Each knife must
undergo seamless quality controls before
being released for sale.

| Jackson Browne - The Birds Of St. Marks |
 |
This is a song from "Solo Acoustics #1"
for all my friends on YT and all JB' fans...
THE BIRDS OF ST. MARKS
Previously unreleased
Oh how sadly sound the songs the queen must
sing of dying
A prisoner upon her throne of melancholy
sighing
If she could see her mirror now
She would be free of those who bow and
Scrape the ground before her feet
Silently she walks among her dying midnight
roses
Watches as each moment goes that never really
know us
And so it seems she doesn't care
If she has dreams of no one there
Within the shadows of her room
But all my frozen words agree, and say it's
time to
Call back, all the birds I sent to
Fly behind her castle walls, and I'm
Weary of the nights I've seen
Inside these empty halls
Wooden lady turn and turn among my weary
secrets
And wave within the hours past and other
empty pockets
Maybe we've found what we have lost
When we've unwound so many crossed entangling
Misunderstandings; but
All my frozen words agree and say it's time
to
Call back all the birds I sent to
Fly behind her castle walls, and I'm
Weary of the nights I've seen
Inside these empty walls
