History
Earlier versions of the WorkChamp did not feature the long inline-Phillips screwdriver under the scissors (similar to the early Hercules and Outrider models).
In 2017 Victorinox completely revised their 111mm product line and ceased production of slide-lock models. As part of that change, the WorkChamp was converted to be lIner-locking, also with the tool changes as noted* in the Tools section above.
Variations
A special version made for the Swiss Paramedic Association replaces the metal saw with the seat belt cutter from the Rescue Tool.
