The **Swiza D03 olive wood** is a contemporary knife inspired by classic Swiss pocket knives. The first thing you'll notice is the knife's modern, ergonomic design. The innovation is easy to see when you look at the lock. You unlock the knife by pressing down the logo on the handle. Swiza has also taken left-handed users into account with a cut-out in the blade that can be used from both sides.

## Maintenance-friendly materials

Swiza says that you can wash its pocket knives in the dishwasher without any negative effects. We recommend washing knives with wooden handles by hand. That includes this knife. For the versions with plastic handle, we wanted to see for ourselves how dishwasher safe these knives are. You can read more about this [here](/en/ct/swiza-dishwasher-test.htm). Our conclusion is that Swiza pocket knives do remarkably well in the dishwasher. We do, however, recommend that you clean your Swiza pocket knives by hand.

Whether you decide to wash your Swiza pocket knife in the dishwasher or not, it is a wonderfully maintenance-friendly pocket knife.

## Swiza tools

### Knife

The blade is made from 440 stainless steel that is hardened to a Rockwell hardness of 57. You can easily open the knife with the cut-out in the blade. You also still have enough grip on the blade to open it by squeezing it and pulling it open, if you have difficulty with a nail nick. Once opened, the lock ensures that the knife won't close when you don't want it to. Classic Swiss pocket knives don't have a lock, but the Swiza pocket knives often do. You unlock the blade by pressing the Swiss cross. This pushes aside the latch that keeps the blade open. You can then close the blade.

### Awl

What do you use an awl for? For all the things you wouldn't use the tip of your knife for! The awl is sharpened on one side, so it is highly suitable for making marks on wood. Which side of the line should you follow when you've marked something with a pencil? With an awl this isn't a problem. In addition, it is very practical to use an awl to pierce soft metals. You can use it to mark out where you should drill, for instance. And when you've finished the renovations, and it's time to uncork the champagne, an awl also comes in handy for removing the foil from the cork!

### Can opener

The function of this tool is rather self-explanatory! As well as opening cans of food, it can also open tins of paint. You can also use the flat screwdriver at the front!

### Bottle opener

In addition to removing the caps from bottles, this tool has a couple of other functions. There is a small indentation at the base of this tool. This is the wire bender. The head of the bottle opener is flat. It can be used as a screwdriver, a scraper and even a pry bar.

### Corkscrew

After removing the foil from the cork, you can then uncork the bottle with the corkscrew. The most creative way of using a corkscrew is using it as a coat rack. Turn the corkscrew into a wall and use the handle as a hanger.

### Tweezers

The tweezers on a Swiss pocket knife are often used to remove splinters. The advantage of these tweezers is that the head is already bevelled. This means the tweezers already have a 'tip', perfect for tasks that require precision. You can use the full width of the tweezers by tilting them slightly.

General information

We always measure the blade height at the highest part of the blade.

Blade height

We always measure the blade length ourselves. This is the length of the blade from the tip to the front of the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade length

value_blade_length_edge

The length of the cutting edge is measured from the tip to the start of the edge. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Cutting edge length

We always measure the blade thickness at the thickest part of the blade. Often just before the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade thickness

value_closed_length

We always weigh a product as bare as possible. Knives and axes always without their sheath, lights (if possible) without their battery. For knife sets we measure the entire weight. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specifications.

We measure the sharpening angle ourselves. This value is the angle per side.  So 20º means that the total angle of the edge is 40º. Please note that knives are almost always sharpened by hand, even in factories. This value is therefore only an indication of a single tool measured by us. You are always free to choose your own sharpening angle. [Learn more about sharpening angles](/en/ct/sharpening-angles-explained.htm).

In terms of grind we are talking about how the complete blade thickness extends into the edge. Want to learn more about grinds? [Read all about grinds on knives](/en/ct/knife-grinds.htm).
