Swiss Knife: Now with 2GB Memory And Laser Pointer

Good ol’ Victorinox have released a new model of their legendary Swiss Army Knife which comes armed with obligatory blade, scissors and nail file along with two modern day essentials, a USB drive and laser pointer.


The model is called the SwissMemory Laser and also includes a retractable ball-point pen, screwdriver and keyring.


The 2-gig model retails for $148 while those on a tighter budget can pick up a 1-gig version for $105.

Sounds like the perfect combination to me, although may I make a suggestion Victorinox? How about some little solar panels to keep the battery charged? They could be placed under the transparent casing to protect them from damage.
