Oh hey... thanks! I've got some more rockers (of a different style) waiting to be made from the various piles of walnut, mesquite, sugar maple, honey locust, and hickory that I have out in the shop, but I've got so many other things in my hair right now I don't know when I'm going to get around to it.

I found myself without the correct density of rubber hammer for a job and sprung for a real live Nupla with 4 different screw-on heads and a fiberglass handle. Very nice.

On Fri, 19 Mar 2010 22:03:36 -0500, the infamous Swingman scrawled the following:
Aw, yer taste is all in yer mouth, Swingy. I have a lovely little pal in my Victorinox Classic SD. Handy toothpick, tweezers (works on metal and wood splinters), small knife, scissors, nail file. I use it daily. I also have chisels, drawknives, box cutters, linoleum cutters, machetes, and half a dozen other blades for other things. Twine, boxes, nails, teeth, and splinters? This one is just -made- for it, and small enough to fit in my pocket without a single problem. I've used one for at least 35 years. (none lost came back, either.)
So THERE! Mr. Swissdisser. Pffffffft!

I have the same knife. I have gone through several of them. My wife has washed a couple of them too. But they still work OK.
Ia addition to being a small multipurpose tool, I use it to open letters and packages. And its most important function, I can trim nose, ear and mustache hair with it!
Try doing that with a big ole pocket knife.

'll bet those would be harder to lose. On the other hand if mine was yellow with black stripes I could probably loose it.

MY Dutch Army Knife has a small motor which holds a routerbit and the battery also powers small wheels which makes the DAK travel across a 4 x 8 sheet cutting out patterns via GPS and ordinary uploaded G-code files....AND it has toothpik.

...we're birds of a feather, only mine is a Kershaw that hooks onto the inside of my right pocket and flips out with my index finger and a flip of the wrist...that blade's dug into *many* strange and wonderful places!

I've been carrying the same Swiss Army knife around for about 30 years... My most used tool by far. The knives (it has two) are the least used part of it. The magnifying "glass" is probably the most used as my eyes age, but the tweezers, screw drivers (Phillips and slotted), bottle openers and scissors all get used more than the knife blades... Why would anyone carry around just a knife?
