SwissOutpost.com is the supersite for products by Victorinox and Wenger, makers of the Swiss Army knife. In business since 1972, we have sold to and shipped for American Express, AOL, Citigroup, L.L. Bean, Overstock, Skymall, Wal-Mart Online and Wenger. Suppliers have applauded our integrity and service. We were the first to sell Swiss Army watches and knives online, in 1991. (Wenger had five watches and AOL had 400,000 members.) We started Swiss Army Depot in 1996, called an online leader by Microsoft [ Joint Press Release ]. In 1999, a Fortune 500 company acquired Swiss Army Depot. We continued to run it and helped to build and run their ecommerce department. We relaunched in mid-2003. We're thrilled to be back, and to offer many more products at the same great prices. Welcome and enjoy your visit!
Why Shop Here? 10 Reasons
... and we treat everyone with respect
Is It New?Of course, every product sold in SwissOutpost.com is brand new . As authorized dealers, we buy directly from Wenger North America and Swiss Army Brands/Victorinox. In fact, we're one of their biggest online customers. The only exception is "Refurbished Watches". These are either new, or have been reconditioned, and may have imperceptible cosmetic flaws. These are clearly marked as Refurbished, and the model numbers all end in "R".

World-Class Products (all Swiss made & guaranteed by the makers of Swiss Army knives) 
Barbara Kane founded HearthSong in 1983 because of a growing conviction that, ".too often, in our culture, children are pushed to grow up too fast. I started HearthSong to make a statement reinforcing what parents themselves know is true, right and healthy--that childhood is a very special time." Children need time to be children. Kane chose the company's name to reflect her values: the hearth, a traditional symbol for the center of the home, and song to symbolize the family spirit, the joy that parents and children can experience together. Our merchandise selection and product development goals are inspired by Kane's philosophy of child development, drawn from a broad base of child psychologists, parents, religious teachers, toymakers, and educators-especially those from the Waldorf school of thought. Kane felt strongly that childhood is a unique period in the life of an individual, that the consciousness of a child is completely different from that of an adult, that there is a specific purpose and a specific pattern to childhood and to the development of a child's consciousness, and that adults can help or hinder the accomplishment of that purpose and pattern. Barbara Kane started HearthSong in 1983, partly to see if other parents were experiencing the difficulty she was in finding good, wholesome toys for her children. Mostly she was motivated by her strong conviction that childhood is a special time in each human lifetime, and she wanted to make the best of it for her children. In Kane's view, "Earlier is not necessarily better. It's important that children learn basic skills, but at the right developmental age. Most of all, children need time for creative, imaginative play. In fact, it is through play that children learn most readily." The best way to express this reverence for the human experience, she felt, was through quality products. In choosing items, HearthSong merchants ask the following questions: Does this item have beauty, durability and usefulness? Does it represent a cultural heritage? Is it made of non-toxic materials? Is it developmentally appropriate for the age group for which it is intended? Does it encourage a sense of family or community? Does it have a timeless or classic quality? Only products that meet these criteria are offered in the HearthSong catalog or on our web site.
A Message About Product Safety and Quality AssuranceProduct safety is of the utmost importance to all of us at HearthSong. Our dedication to finding the most unique and enduring products for our customers takes us all over the world, and every toy-no matter its country of origin-is submitted to the same stringent safety testing.
Our vendors, too, are required to submit documentation from independent testing laboratories proving their products conform to the appropriate safety standards. All products are routinely reviewed and updated documentation requested, guaranteeing consistent quality and adherence to safety standards for as long as we carry each item.
