This tool is outstanding value for money! Mine came in a belt pouch for about £30. It's not too big and bulky like some of the knives you can get, but it's got the lot for your camping trip. Whatever I have needed, it's been there for me.
The warranty covers the knife for all conceivable damage that is incurred, as long as it wasn't misused / poor maintenance related.
That is the only thing here. It's fair to say that a well oiled machine runs like, well, a well oiled machine. This is also true of the Swiss Army knife. It must be correctly cleaned and oiled after each intensive use (i.e after a weeks worth of camping) to keep it in good shape. This can be a time consuming job, but well worth the investment. My tool has been with me nearly 5 years I think, and it's never been without its use!
