Our story

Small, precise, always ready

The Swiss have a way with small, well-made things, and the pocket multi-tool is the perfect example. A handful of carefully chosen tools, folded into a slim steel body that slips into a pocket and is ready for the small jobs of the day — opening a box, tightening a screw, cutting a thread. Alpen makes these tools in the Swiss tradition: compact, precise and built to last a lifetime. A good multi-tool is the thing you always have on you, and never miss until you need it.

How it's made

Each tool is made from stainless steel, with the blades and implements ground and assembled precisely so everything opens smoothly and holds firm. The body is finished in a tough, smooth coating, built to be carried every day.

How to use it

Fold the tool you need out of the body and use it, then fold it back. Keep it dry and wipe it clean now and then, and oil the joints lightly — a well-kept multi-tool serves for a very long time.

Good to know

Is it suitable for travel?

Some airlines restrict blades in carry-on. Check the local rules for knives and blades before you travel with a multi-tool.

Which should I choose?

The compact tool is ideal for a keychain or a light pocket. The classic and large tools offer more implements for heavier everyday use.

How do I care for it?

Keep it dry, wipe it clean now and then, and oil the joints lightly. A well-kept multi-tool stays smooth and precise for years.

Are they made to last?

Yes — they are made from stainless steel, assembled precisely and built to be carried every day. With a little care they serve for a very long time.

What is in the tools?

Depending on the model, a blade, scissors, screwdrivers, a bottle opener and more, all folded into the slim body. The compact and classic tools cover the everyday jobs.

What makes it Swiss?

The pocket multi-tool is a Swiss tradition — a compact, precisely made tool that carries a useful set of implements in a small steel body. Alpen makes its tools in that tradition.
