The **Swiza D05** is a contemporary knife inspired by classic Swiss pocket knives. The first thing you notice is the modern, ergonomic design of the knives. The innovation is evident when you look at the lock. You unlock the knife by pressing down the logo on the handle. Swiza also takes left-handed users into account by cutting out a piece of the blade which can be used from both sides.

 ## Maintenance-friendly materials

 Swiza claims that you can easily place its pocket knives in the dishwasher without any negative side-effects. We decided to test this theory. You can ready more about it [here.](/news/swiza-dishwasher-test.htm) Our conclusion is that Swiza pocket knives do remarkably well in the dishwasher. We do, however, recommend you clean Swiza pocket knives by hand.

 Whether you do decide to clean your Swiza pocket knife in the dishwasher or not. It is a great maintenance-friendly pocket knife.

 ## Swiza tools

 ### Knife

 The blade is made from 440 stainless steel that is hardened up to a rockwell-hardness of 57. You can easily open the knife with the cut-out in the blade. In addition to that you still have enough grip on the blade to open it by squeezing it and pulling it open. If you have difficulty with a nail groove opening. Once opened the lock ensures that the knife won't close when you don't want it to. Classic Swiss pocket knives don't have a lock. You unlock the blade by pressing the Swiss cross. As such you push aside the ledge that keeps the blade opened. Then close the blade.

 ### Awl

 What do you use an awl for? For all tasks you wouldn't use the tip of your knife for! The awl has a one-sided grind. As such it is great to make markings on wood. Which side of the line should you adhere to when you mark something with a pencil? With an awl this isn't a problem. In addition, it is very practical to use an awl to prick into soft metals. To mark where you should drill for instance. When you are done remodelling and the champagne is uncorked an awl will also come in handy to remove the foil from the cork!

 ### Can opener

 The function of this tool is rather obvious. In addition to opening simple cans it can open paint cans. Do, however, make sure you use the flat screwdriver at the front!

 ### Bottle opener

 In addition to removing the corks from bottles this tool has a couple of other functions. At the base of this tool you will find a small cut-out. This is the wire bender. The head of the bottle opener is flat. Can be used as a screwdriver, scraper but also to pry with.

 ### Corkscrew

 When removing the foil from the cork you can remove it with the corkscrew. The most creative way of using a corkscrew is using it as a coat rack. Turn the corkscrew into a wall and use the handle as a hanger.

 ### Wood saw

 Cutting a branch for an improvised tent herring, or cutting kindle: it is possible with the wood saw on this Swiza pocket knife. Clever about this saw is that it is thicker around the serrations than on the spine. As such it won't get caught in the wood.

 ### Tweezers

 The tweezers on a Swiss pocket knife are often used to remove splinters. The advantage of these tweezers is that the head is already bevelled. As a result the tweezers already have a 'tip': for the real detailed tasks. The full width of the tweezers is used by slightly tilting them.

General information

We always measure the blade height at the highest part of the blade.

Blade height

We always measure the blade length ourselves. This is the length of the blade from the tip to the front of the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade length

value_blade_length_edge

The length of the cutting edge is measured from the tip to the start of the edge. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Cutting edge length

We always measure the blade thickness at the thickest part of the blade. Often just before the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade thickness

value_closed_length

We always weigh a product as bare as possible. Knives and axes always without their sheath, lights (if possible) without their battery. For knife sets we measure the entire weight. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specifications.

Weight

value_steel_hardness

The hardness in Rockwell C for a knife is always according to the manufacturer's specifications. When a manufacturer specifies a value of 56-58HRC, for instance, we always note the highest value, i.e. 58HRC.

We measure the sharpening angle ourselves. This value is the angle per side.  So 20º means that the total angle of the edge is 40º. Please note that knives are almost always sharpened by hand, even in factories. This value is therefore only an indication of a single tool measured by us. You are always free to choose your own sharpening angle. [Learn more about sharpening angles](/en/ct/sharpening-angles-explained.htm).

Sharpening angle

In terms of grind we are talking about how the complete blade thickness extends into the edge. Want to learn more about grinds? [Read all about grinds on knives](/en/ct/knife-grinds.htm).
