The Wenger Survivor is a handy knife for the backpacker or hiker. In addition to the standard cutting tools, the Whistle implement specifically addresses rescue situations, and the Carabiner Clip allows for easy attachment to the outside of a pack or on a belt. Two similar models (1.92.73 and 1.68.02), which feature few different implements, were sold in the European market and other countries, but not in North America. See variations below
