Rumor has it that Jules Richardson may have mentioned these words:

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.

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,
