I have been a huge fan of Victorinox Swiss army knives, but when I went online and saw the Campo 8 by MKM, which is apparently a Knife Center exclusive Swiss-army-knife-like knife, I thought I wanted to try it. A SAK clone with premium steel!

In this video, I compare the functions of the Campo 8 with a Victorinox Huntsman which, along with the Fieldmaster, is its closest legitimate SAK relative. The M390 blade steel is the biggest feature, but the scissors are very good and the saw is... better?! than the Victorinox in my brief testing today.

This is not a sponsored video. I really spent $140 of my own money on this knife!! That's 4 times the price of a Victorinox Huntsman! Could it be worth it? You'll have to decide that...

If you want to see the inimitable (although someday I'll make a video where I try) David C. Anderson discuss his own knife, check it out here on the @knifecenter YT channel: youtu.be/rJt4fyXg12g
