Victorinox Rescue Tool - More Than Just a RT

[PHARRAOH]

i'd rather have the bright colers. camo is too easy to be left behind. i dont know how many times ive stopped for the night and realized, im in for a 8 mile bachtrack if i ever want to see that tool again. not a good feeling!

[ColinOutdoors]

@PHARRAOH Hi Alan, yeah the bright tool certainly is a bonus for the outdoors. LOL can't say I have ever misplaced a tool. I bet that would be a nightmare having to back track to retrieve it. Take care

[ibmoosed]

nice review

cool tool

[ColinOutdoors]

@ibmoosed Thanks mate :-)

[Smith28Adventure]

Great demo Col. I think I would keep that in my car door, definitely worth the extra petrol costs. ;)

You learn something new everyday.

I never knew contact lenses melt. :D

[ColinOutdoors]

@Smith28Adventure Thanks Smith, yeah the Vic RT is a top tool. Take care.

[NWoodsman]

Nice demonstration. I have a RT in my car at all times, but never thought of it as a tool for the woods.

[ColinOutdoors]

@NWoodsman Thanks my friend, great choice for a rescue tool in the car :-)

[thingyee1118]

[intenseangler]

Excellent in-the-field review of an awesome tool!

[ColinOutdoors]

@intenseangler Thank you very much John

[yamuthasbrotha91]

i own this knife saved my life in a car fire

[ColinOutdoors]

@yamuthasbrotha91 Hi mate, glad to hear you escaped from a car fire, sounds very frightening, take care.

[ewtoutdoors]

That works pretty good, never know the capabilities untill you try. It is a bright color so you can keep track of it. Take care and have a great day.

[ColinOutdoors]

@ewtoutdoors Thanks my friend, yeah it works great. Haha yes its very bright, I will be hard to loose :-)

[saradreaming]

Nice review Colin! It's an interesting tool. Seems pretty good for urban stuff with the capability of crossing over into outdoor tasks. Personally for me though, I would prefer the tools with the straight edge and regular saw. That's just me though.. : )

[ColinOutdoors]

@saradreaming Thank you Sara, yeah its a good tool, more capable than many think.

[angrybuck1]

awesome thanks! :)

[ColinOutdoors]

@angrybuck1 Cheers my friend.

[wmpyr]

FANTASTIC video! thank you for showing this! completely agree with you that it is more versatile than first impression, heck I carry mine for self defense :)

[ColinOutdoors]

@wmpyr Thanks my friend. Hey carrying it for self defence is a great idea, thank you for sharing, take care.

[dxporker]

Looks like a good functioning tool Colin

[ColinOutdoors]

@dxporker It sure is my friend, thank you.

[SurviveN2]

That's a nice looking tool. Thanks for sharing Colin. Take Care my friend :-))

[ColinOutdoors]

@SurviveN2 Thank you very much Dragon, take care too.

[TheCrushmaster]

This is definitely a great tool - it's versatile, decently-priced, well-made. Hope to pick one up soon.

Great video, mate. God bless.

[ColinOutdoors]

@TheCrushmaster Thank you so much my friend, take care and have a great weekend. I hope you pick up a Vic RT soon, great tool.

[dcox01]

I have always liked Victorinox. I have carried a "champ" for years.

[ColinOutdoors]

@dcox01 Nice on my friend, Vic's are great tools, the Champ rocks

[vegantrax]

Excellent performance

Victorinox = top quality

Greetings

[ColinOutdoors]

@vegantrax Thanks my friend, I agree, take care.

[nextexhale]

By the way, if you plan to use keep it for purpose of rescue be sure to keep some very durable gloves with the tool. I cut my hand when using the the glass breaker becuase I didn't have any gloves on--nothing bad, superficial but I was bleeding and it might have been much worse on another kind of window.

[ColinOutdoors]

@nextexhale Great tip my friend, sorry to hear you cut your had. I hope it heals soon. Thank you, take care.

[nextexhale]

Colin, I have one of these I keep in my car for emergency. I litterally used it yesterday to help put out a fire. The glass breaker was needed to get to the flames of a pickup truck camper top that was on fire across from where I work. We were able to put out the fire before the firemen arrived because of the RT. However I never considered using the RT in the woods. I'm even more impressed by this awesome knife after watching this video. Thanks for posting it!

[ColinOutdoors]

@nextexhale Hi my friend. Wow, nice one. Sounds like you did a great job. I hope no one was hurt. Glad you managed to get the fire out. Great job my friend, stay safe. Take care

[nextexhale]

@ColinOutdoors No one was hurt, Thank God. However when I got on the scene with the RT and a fire extinguisher. I could hear someone yelling "Is there anyone in there?" There was so much smoke rolling out of the camper that we couldn't see inside and so there was a real sense of urgency to get the flames out in case there was someone inside. I was very thankful for my RT because someone tried to break the window with some type of canister but couldn't. The RT did work!

[ColinOutdoors]

@nextexhale Glad to hear no one was hurt my friend. You did a great job under pressure my friend. The RT was great to have with you, but you must of remained calm to us it. Well done my friend, a stand up guy. Take care.

[AussieMark909]

Great review, thanks Colin. I think for general outdoors use the One Hand Trekker is better suited than this model. The saw on this one looks to be not really designed for cutting wood, and the this model lacks the can opener. However, as you have shown, it can do the bush tasks if you need it to. Cheers mate.

[ColinOutdoors]

@AussieMark909 Yes Mark, as I mentioned the saw is not designed for this purpose. But it can work. The Trekker is know as the Trailmaster over here. Also there is the Forester, same think, swapping the philips for a corkscrew.

[pedro2130]

Good man Colin, great vid as per your usual form! Cheers

[ColinOutdoors]

@pedro2130 Thanks man, always appreciate your support. 

[nvrhaveaniceday]

never knoew the possibilities of this knife, thanks for the info and testing!

[ColinOutdoors]

@nvrhaveaniceday Thanks my friend, yeah I think its a more versatile tool than I initially thought too.

[tomfaranda]

Fine, but there are better victorinox large folder options for the woods.

[ColinOutdoors]

@tomfaranda Yes true, not sure where you are going with that. I did not specify this as being the BEST did I?

[ColinOutdoors]

@epicblade529 Cheers mate, already done a vid on my collection a couple of months ago

[UltimateSurvivalMan]

Nice review my good friend Colin. The tool looks awesome :-) Take care my good friend

[ColinOutdoors]

@UltimateSurvivalMan Thanks my friend, always appreciate your support and kind words. Take care

[nchiker1971]

Great review, impressive tool

[ColinOutdoors]

@nchiker1971 Thanks mate, yeah the Vic RT really is a great tool, very pleased with it.

[lptb13]

hi colin do u know to legal age to carry a knife.

Luke.

[ColinOutdoors]

@lptb13 Hi Luke, I would imagine it to be 18.

[TheNeedyCat]

@ColinOutdoors actually there is no age limit, but police may question you more thoroughly if you are a youth

[ColinOutdoors]

@TheNeedyCat Ok mate, you certainly have to be 18 and over to buy one though.

[fuckyouobama1]

Always appreciate your reviews! :)

[ColinOutdoors]

@fuckyouobama1 Thanks my friend :-)

[ramsd1]

Very nice review, great tool. I prefer the nonserrated blade better. Just not a fan of serrations. Always keep one in the Jeep.

[ColinOutdoors]

@ramsd1 Nice one my friend, thank you, take care.

[motorbikesrule125]

How much did u pay

[ColinOutdoors]

@motorbikesrule125 For the tool? £30

[motorbikesrule125]

@ColinOutdoors good price

[ColinOutdoors]

@motorbikesrule125 Aye it sure was :-)

[vitopetre]

Great review again!

That's one of the very few knives I own. But if I would own so many knives and multitools as you do, I would definitely leave this one in the car or do you keep an even better rescue tool there in case of an emergency?

[ColinOutdoors]

@vitopetre Thanks my firend. Yeah its a great option for the car. I keep a rescue hammer/seatbelt cutter in the car, I cannot recall what it is called.

[FenrisRising]

Great video and an outstanding demonstration of that tool can do. Keep up the good work Colin!

[ColinOutdoors]

@FenrisRising Thank you so much for the support and kind words my friend.

[Waldhandwerk]

Cool test and Review, ...good knife. Thanks, Colin, my friend.

[ColinOutdoors]

@Waldhandwerk Hello Sepp, thanks my good friend, take care.
