Tweezers

IBACH, Switzerland--It's hard not to smile when you're in a large room filled with dozens and dozens of bins of the many individual parts that go into Swiss Army Knives.

As part of Road Trip 2011, CNET reporter Daniel Terdiman got to visit the factory here in this small town in central Switzerland where Victorinox has been making the world-famous knives since 1891--even before it adopted that name.

Today, the company turns out millions of the knives a year, in about 350 different models. And all are made in Ibach.

Here, we see a bin of the tweezers that go in just about every one of those models.
