I know you didn't ask for advice but depending on who you're buying for something like a leatherman might be more appropriate. Swiss army knives had their days but now they're more trinkets than anything else...if the person you're buying it for isn't particularly handy then it will do fine but if this is for the handyman or woman of the household there are, in my opinion, other multi-tools that are much more useful. Likely any of the stores listed by others will have Leathermans as well.

Swiss Army knives are insanely popular in Russia, if anyone can get them. They're legendary. They become a prized possession to the few men fortunate enough to have one.

Let us know how your kid likes their new SAK. I recommend getting one with a locking blade for the sake of safety. Also get a good sharpening device. A dull knife is a dangerous knife. I like the DMT aligner but there are many others that are good.
