The Pioneer Pruner is a slim 93mm single-layer Alox model from Victorinox, with only two blades. The small blade is a more specialised hawkbill style, also known as the pruner blade.

It seems that this model is not known as the Pioneer Pruner in all markets, the name Pruner may just be used in the North American market, or be an unofficial name. For example in the 2017 Victorinox catalogue this model is referred to as the Swiss Army 2 (indicating two functions). It has had other names, or lack of a name, in the past!
