Ans. Maybe because the Swiss Army Knife is a cliché. Designers Qian Jiang, Yiying Wu and Carolina Flores had another thing in their minds when they deconstructed the beloved cultural icon by replacing the usual tools with bandages, disinfectant spray --- and love, peace and harmony.

This sortof Red Cross Peace Um Whatever It Is is only rich in metaphors; so it’s only for showing off around. Essentially, it still is a version of the Swiss Army Knife. But if you say the knife stands for violence in the usual Swiss Army Knife, you miss the point. I mean, man, I don’t want these guys doing a version of a stun gun that doesn’t stun.

Bottomline: Though I see the point (which is to make a point), the knife will always come handy.
