New Knife for Rescue Workers

[Marduke]

I know a lot of you around here work as rescue personnel (and that's where you get to use that awesome flashlight every day) and thought you might be interested in a new knife offered this year by one of the best manufactures out there.

It's the Victorinox Rescue Tool. It can break windows, cut through safety glass and seat belts with specialized tools for each (an replaceable blades too!!). Main blade is one hand open (even through gloves) and locks in place. They can be found on Amazon for $52, and elsewhere probably lower. More info is linked below:

You sound like you work for SAK.

I've got one of those for the car.

The saw blade and glass breaker are replaceable — a first for Victorinox.

Where is the belt cutter on this? I can't see anything that looks like a belt cutter.

See that curved blade in the pic? The one that curves downward and is just underneath the main blade. That's the seatbelt cutter.

I wonder why a rescue tool lacks an implement to open bottles of alcoholic drinks?

The flat screwdriver/bottle opener is the bottom tool in the picture I attached. What it's missing is a can opener, which is no big deal since this is a rescue/EDC knife and not a survival/camping knife. And no, I don't work for SAK, I just love Victorinox.
