The original version of this knife was slide-locking. It was converted to be liner-locking in 2017.
The Workchamp XL contains nearly every tool Victorinox makes for the 111mm slide-lock series. It is only missing the back-side Phillips screwdriver, and the small gutting blade of the Hunter.
It also features a couple tools that appear to be unavailable on any other 111mm models, these being the clip-point blade* and the back-spring fine screwdriver.
The newer liner-lock 111mm knives do feature some more recent tools that were never included in the slide-lock series or this knife.
According to Victorinox, this model was designed for the collector !
