Swiss Army Knife was a gen fic writer in the Naruto fandom. While she didn't ship the characters, Swiss Army Knife's fics were popular among KakaIru fans. In 2012 Swiss Army Knife removed her fics from ff.net, and deleted her livejournal account. Since then, there have been several fans on the Kakairu Fic Search Thread searching for her fics.

While most of Swiss Army Knife's works can only be found by sharing deleted fanworks, the two stories posted for the KakaIru Fest are still available.

Swiss Army Knife also wrote Avatar: The Last Airbender fic. Avocado Love said of Hide and Seek:

I could have seriously put many of Swiss Army Knife's fics on this list, but sadly I made myself choose only one. This author is a master at creating great one-shots, and I consider Hide And Seek to be probably the best example of the work.
The way Sokka and Zuko work together to bring down everyone else in their little wargame of 'Hide and Go Seek' is a real treat to read. Sokka shows as a genius – a boy who can stand toe to toe with benders and sometimes even win. Zuko's sorta along for the ride, being his hapless, dorky self. My only real complaint is that there is a little too much faith put into Sokka's abilities – but that's only something that comes apparent after reading all of the author's Avatar: TLA works.
Still, if I was introducing someone to fan fiction for the first time, and wanted to show them top-quality one-shots, I would make them read this fic and maybe #12 as some of the best examples of what fan fiction can be. [1]

She also participated in the Aubrey-Maturin fandom, creating several fanvids with her own brand of stick-figures, which she uploaded under the name of swisskun. These vids are still available to watch on Youtube[2].
