Yes, the term "Swiss Army Knife" is a trademark owned by Victorinox, the Swiss company known for producing multi-tools and knives. However, the term has become widely used in a generic sense to describe versatile tools or products that serve multiple functions. As a result, while it is a trademarked name, its usage has broadened in everyday language to refer to similar multifunctional items.
