Mother of all Swiss Army knives is a multiblade folding knife that has 100 blades and even a functional .22-caliber fivhot pinfire revolver. It was made in Germany in 1880s. It does not have a bottle opener, because the bottle cap as we know wasn’t invented until 1892.

If that's a .22, just how big is that thing?

No worries ... The 22 caliber gun can be used to shoot the bottle caps off.

I do not believe that is a .22. Most likely, it is one of the 2 or 1.5mm Colibri pinfire rounds (by comparison a .22 is app. 5mm) that were popular at those times.

"The knife has 100 functions, including every types of blades imaginable. It has a serrated blade, dagger blades, shears and scissors, an auger, a corkscrew, saws, a lancet, button hook, cigar cutter, pens and pencils, mirror, and straight razor. You can even use this tool to tune a piano, as it has a piano tuner built in. Hungry? It's got a butter knife so you can butter your toast."

Tune a piano???

The replica is 24 cm (w/o pistol).
