Is there any easy way to clean a Swiss Army Knife?

What are you trying to clean off? (I can't help you regardless, I'm just bored and curious).

Just stuff like dust and grime inside where it folds up.

I already got the blood off ;)

Ironically, it's my gf's knife and she asked me. I have no clue what to use. Will bleach really work or was that a joke?

If you go into a jewelry story and ask REALLY nice they may stick it in the sonic washer for you. They do it for my father and I need to get my leatherman juice cleaned too now...

Soaking in bleach is awesome for cleaning (rust/stains/etc.) stainless steel. I do not know what else may get damaged if you soak her knife in bleach.

The "sonic" washer is the ultimate cleaner . . . but the dishwasher may work as well.

Open all the attachments and put it in the little cage for silverware in your dishwasher and put it on Pots and Pans.

Don't forget to re-oil the hinges once you finish washing, otherwise pulling out the attachments will be a pain.
