Victorinox has developed a special knife for seamen: The Helmsman. The exceptional quality has proved invaluable in many situations when sailing and boating. The integrated shackle opener, for example, permits simple opening of large and small shackles. The tips act as marline spikes and can also be used as an emergency awl. The cylindrical grinding of the large, lockable blade makes it possible to sever even thick ropes. Other important tools for use on board are: Phillips and other screwdrivers, can opener, bottle opener, prick-pierce bodkin, and wire insulation stripper.

The roughened, ergonomic casing gives the knife an extremely good grip, which is a considerable advantage when used on the water. The Helmsman is 2 cm longer than conventional "Swiss Army knives" (91 mm) yet they can be considered lightweight at approximately 110 grams. The blades of the knives and tools are made from top quality stainless steel and are locked in place by individual springs.
