Outdoor pros need gear that prepares them for whatever challenges the day might bring. As a part of the Ranger series, the Victorinox Ranger 79 M Grip is engineered precisely for this reality. With rugged capability backed by professional testing, this Swiss-made multi-tool combines heavy-duty construction with the functionality required for serious day-to-day work in the forest or the workshop.
VictorinoxEngineered for one-handed utility
Whether you are clearing an overhanging branch on a trail or cutting a piece of dowel for a backyard project, the Victorinox Ranger 79 M Grip centers on a large, locking blade designed for immediate deployment. An integrated thumb hole allows for efficient, one-handed opening, ensuring the tool can be accessed safely while working. Built to meet the standards of skilled craftsmen and tested by professionals, the locking mechanism provides crucial stability under heavy pressure.
Enhanced control via two-component scales
Trying to hold onto a tool with sweaty hands or during a sudden afternoon downpour is an easy way to lose your grip. That’s why the Ranger 79 ditches slippery plastic for rugged, two-component scales that practically lock into your palm, offering serious slip resistance when conditions get messy.
At 5.1 inches long and 1.3 inches wide, the beefy chassis gives you plenty of handle to wrap your hand around for maximum leverage, yet it manages to pack all that surface area into a pocket-friendly 5.9-ounce profile that won’t weigh you down.
