The Victorinox Ranger 78 M Grip. 12 Swiss tools, a one-hand blade.
Like every tool in the Ranger series, the Ranger 78 M Grip is made for skilled craftsmen and tested by professionals. Its large locking blade has a perfectly placed thumb hole, so you can open it with just one hand, and its two-component scales combine an outstanding grip with a modern, sturdy look. There are 12 functions, including a wood saw, a Phillips screwdriver, two flat screwdrivers and a wire stripper, in a 130 mm, 172 g body. It's made in Switzerland and covered by the Victorinox Lifetime Warranty, which is valid only when you buy from an authorised seller like LightMen.

Made for skilled craftsmen, tested by professionals
Three reasons the Ranger 78 M Grip is built for real work.
A perfectly placed thumb hole
The large blade has a thumb hole, so you can open it with one hand while the other holds the work. It then locks open, so it can't fold onto your fingers while you cut.
Two-component scales
The dual-density scales combine a firm base with a softer grip layer, for an outstanding hold and a modern, sturdy look. The tool stays secure in your hand when you saw or turn a stubborn screw.
Made in Switzerland since 1884
Victorinox has made its tools in Ibach, Switzerland, for well over a century. Like every tool in the Ranger series, the 78 M Grip is made for skilled craftsmen and tested by professionals.
Saw, strip, fix: one hand on the tool
Free laser engraving: make it yours
We laser-engrave a name on the blade of your Ranger 78 M Grip, free. It turns a dependable Swiss tool into a personal keepsake or a gift they'll carry for life.
We engrave on the blade only, not on the handle. One name is free. Names only, no logos or graphics. Longer names are engraved in a smaller font to fit. Additional names are chargeable.

Our buying policy
100% brand new
Every Victorinox we sell is brand new and never used. Victorinox avoids plastic packaging, so there's no plastic seal, but no piece is ever a return or a display unit.
No returns or exchanges
All sales are final. Because we never resell returned stock, every customer gets a genuinely new tool. Manufacturing defects are covered by the Victorinox Lifetime Warranty.
Keep it working like new
Release before closing
The large blade locks open. Release the lock before folding it, and keep your fingers clear of the edge.
Rinse and dry
Rinse in warm water now and then, especially after sawing or food use, then dry thoroughly with the tools open.
Oil the joints
A drop of food-safe oil on each joint keeps every tool opening smoothly.
Clean the grip
Wipe the two-component scales with mild soapy water. Avoid solvents, which can harm the soft grip layer.
Swiss quality since 1884
Victorinox was founded in 1884 in Ibach, Switzerland, and is the maker of the original Swiss pocket tool, the red-and-white icon carried around the world. Its tools are still made in Switzerland to the same standards of precision, function and durability.
