Prepared to help when it really matters
Victorinox and Air Zermatt have one mission in common: to be ready when every second counts. Since 2001, this partnership has stood for precision, reliability, and the strength to act under pressure. Air Zermatt’s rescue teams operate in some of the most demanding alpine conditions - and they trust Victorinox tools to support them in critical moments. This collaboration is more than a logo on a helmet. It’s a shared belief: that being prepared can save lives.

Swiss precision for moments that matter.
We worked for years with professional rescuers to design the RescueTool pocket knife. It features a seatbelt cutter to help you escape from your car in an emergency, a window breaker to safely smash the glass and a disc saw to cut through shatterproof glass in a serious accident. Every tool is designed to work equally well for both left and right-handed users. It’s the knife we hope you never have to use. But when it matters most, you can count on the RescueTool.
Trusted in the Most Demanding Missions
Air Zermatt’s crews face extreme situations every day - suspended on a mountainside, crossing glaciers, or landing in rugged alpine terrain. In these moments, every move must be precise, every tool dependable.
That’s why the Rescue Tool from Victorinox is always within reach: attached to their gear, stowed in packs, or ready at base. It’s used to cut ropes, harnesses or clothing when fast, focused action is required.
Purpose-built for emergencies, it brings together exactly the functions rescuers rely on when every second counts.
Engineered for Urgency
Built with professionals, trusted in the field: the Victorinox Rescue Tool was developed in close collaboration with emergency responders to meet the demands of real-life rescue missions.
It features 13 functions, including a seatbelt cutter with rounded tip, a glass saw for laminated glass, and a window breaker - tools selected and shaped for high-stress situations.
Designed for left- and right-handed use and delivered with a durable nylon pouch, this is a tool made for those who choose to be prepared.
