Yes, a Victorinox Swiss Army knife can rust if it is not properly cared for, particularly if it is made from high-carbon stainless steel, which can be susceptible to corrosion under certain conditions. To prevent rust, it's important to keep the knife dry and clean, and to regularly apply a light oil to the blades and mechanisms. However, the stainless steel used in many Victorinox knives is designed to resist rust better than regular steel.
The reddish-brown spots on a bread knife are typically a result of rust, which is a chemical change. Rust forms when iron in the knife reacts with oxygen and moisture in the air, leading to the formation of iron oxide. This process alters the chemical composition of the metal, distinguishing it from a physical change, which would not involve such a transformation.
It shouldn't, but it really depends on the amount of chrome and molybdenum in the metal. It also depends on how much moisture it is exposed to. I have a knife made out of chrome-moly and it does oxidise, but it is not destructive to the metal, it is athetic only.(It turns black.)
That doesn't make any sense rust is iron oxide
zinc is used to prevent rust.
No, but it will pull the rust of a screw.

In the majority of episodes MacGyver uses Victorinox Swiss Army Knives. The opening title sequences does show a clip where he was using a Wenger knife, but most of the time it's victorinox. According to the MacGyver Online web site which has a list of all the knives used in each episode the most commonly used knife was the Victorinox Spartan.
Your question's a little vague: 1. The knife is a real knife (it exists and will cut things) 2. The knife is NOT a "Swiss Army" knife - that title belongs to Victorinox AG
