Yes the 710 is a great design, and I did use it a lot on my vacation. I never go anywhere without a good knife, they always prove very useful especially since they are always within reach. I EDC the 710 and a Swisstool and they get a used quite often. Here is a list of some of the things I used my EDC for during my vacation.
BM 710
Making fire sticks to start campfires
Cutting hotdog roasting sticks
Cutting rope and twine around campsite
Opening packages
Food preparation
Trimming fishing line after tying on a lure

Helped a fellow camper cut rope to set up his tarp.
My girlfriend used it to trim some loose threads on her jeans (she has Spyderco Delica but it was in her purse and my knife was closer)
Swisstool

Fixing my girlfriends front break on her bike
