Cutting Edge Offizersmesser Promotion
I keep presenting Creatively DisruptiveTM  ideas to you. 

This week, it's the Offizersmesser. You'll learn what that is shortly.

But first, what makes an item Creatively DisruptiveTM?

  • It has a useful or unique function or feature.
  • The type of decoration (imprint, embroidery, etc.) and/or message on it is unique, creative or engaging.
  • The way the item is packaged and/or distributed creates additional impact, such as via custom packaging, direct mail, special events, etc.

There are some items that may have a combination all of these points while others have one of them.  But to get the most Promotional Return on Investment  from your promotional dollars, these are the factors you should consider—and the ones I look for when recommending the most Creatively DisruptiveTM  ideas for our clients. 

This week’s item is not a “new” item though it’s certainly useful and has some unique attributes.  

Swiss Army Knife is one of the most recognizable items in the world.  In fact, the words “Swiss Army Knife” have become the standard term for any multifunction knife. During World War II, it was called Offizersmesser in German, the “officer’s knife.  American soldiers couldn’t pronounce that name so they called it the “Swiss Army knife”.  

But the “real” Swiss Army Knife”, made by Victorinox, was really used by the Swiss Army for many years.   

(A bit of trivia: There were two companies that used to supply the Swiss Army with multifunction knives: Victorinox and Wenger.  In 2005, Victorinox bought Wenger. Both brands were used by the Swiss Army up through 2008.  Victorinox still supplies the Swiss Army with their Soldier Knife, which is a special design.) 


Over the years, it has also become very popular promotional item.   Today's Victorinox Swiss Army knives are available in many different sizes with a variety of implements and choices of various handle colors.  

But it’s their full digital graphic decoration method that is available that makes it stand out even more to be a Creatively DisruptiveTM   item.

As you can see, the entire surface of the handle can be fully imprinted.  This means you can have a full custom background designwith your logo or place your colored logo on one of the various handle colors. Want to include another logo in completely different colors on it? As long as it fits, no problem!

P.S. Victorinox has many several other products in watches, travel gear, cutlery and binoculars, too.
In the past several weeks, various ideas have been featured in prior issues of our Creatively DisruptiveTM  News, such as the “Attractive Bottle” that has a  magnetic cap that you can put side of the bottle when you take it off. Or the Quik Flip® jacket that transfroms into a backpack.  Others are old favorites like the jar gripper.  If you missed out on seeing our previous Creatively DisruptiveTM  ideas, check them here.
