Rumor has it that Jules Richardson may have mentioned these words:
Heh :) I lost mine which was particularly annoying as
it got me out of a
lot of scrapes over the years. (*and* the little pair of tweezers hadn't
yet vanished :) Still need to get a decent replacement...
I carry the smallest Swiss Army knife in my pocket, for the tweezers, small
scissors & whatnot... but I also have a Leatherman Wave for the bigger jobs.
Regarding the Leatherman tools, all the ones I've
seen have been way
bigger than a swiss army knife and so a lot less practical for carrying
about in a pocket.
That's why %deity invented beltloops & belts. ;-) Altho, I suppose you're
SOL if you're a suspenders kinda guy...
Honestly tho: Any Swiss Army knife that can handle the same tasks as my
Leatherman, is _just as big_ as my Leatherman, and just as uncomfortable
when carried in a pocket, IMHO. I'm not saying they're bad tools, I'm
saying they should come with a belt-pouch. ;-)
Laterz,
