Yeah, at 2lbs... it probably wouldn't fit in anybody's pocket. Only $1200 though.

How could that be used in any effect?
|
|
I like my water with hops, malt, hops, yeast, and hops.

I don't think that's the point. It's designed to be cool looking, and sit on a desk so people can say "What's That!"

You are wrong and Wikipedia proves it! The Swiss Army Knife was designed for the Swiss Army.

So they basically took the faces off of a bunch of Swiss Army knives and glued them together?

There is just no way some of the middle instruments would be useful.

That is the sort of object made as a dealer display item... no one with any sanity would ever buy it and expect to use it. Hell of a paperweight though...
And, I smell a rat here - Wenger doesn't do Swiss Army Knives... they do bad copies - Victorinox is the company that does the real knives...

Don't try to outweird me, I get stranger things than you free with my breakfast cereal.

If it was $50, I could see people buying it to be funny. But at $1,200 bucks?
