Does everyone still own SAKs?

My first "real" knife was a SAK that I got from my dad when I was 10 years old ,it was the Climber I own it for 10 years now as my EDC.
and last year I bought the Soldier 08.
 
I have a Climber model in my back pocket riding shotgun next to my wallet every day. It's the one constant.

The front pocket can have a variety of knives in it, but I always have my Victorinox with me.

I have been carrying one since childhood.
 
I used the tweezers today to get the worlds smallest tick out my sons ear.
I carry a Leatherman surge at work but our house is stashed with SAKS.

I own about a dozen and a half SAKs from a silver Classic up to the Super Champ, carried one in pocket or on keyring for most of my life. I even have a rare 1st generation Mini Champ on the keys for my motorcycle.
 
I carry an alox rancher 90% of the time in addition to whatever main knife I have on me. I've tried replacing it with traditionals and small one hand openers but it's just too useful to leave my pocket for long.
 
I still own and carry SAK's and will pair up multi-tools with SAKs for EDC's that cover all the bases.

This is where weight training, carrying Buck 110's really pays off. :D
 
I don't edc one that much but I still think there grate lil knives (I mostly take mine camping)
 
I still collect them, I pick them up when ever I can on the secondary market! Awesome, and I agree about McGyver
 
A Vic Hiker is always in my pocket, never leave home without it. My boy always has a Vic Huntsman+ on him, well except for at school.
 
Sometimes I switch certain knives I carry every day. A couple years ago I switched up from using a modern folder to traditionals as my main utility knife. But the one thing that hasn't changed in several years is the Victorinox Cybertool 29. Combined with a Leatherman Squirt PS4, I have needle nose pliers, scissors, blades, a bottle opener (probably my most used tool), a myriad of screwdrivers, tweezers, and a pen. Between them all there isn't much in my daily urban life that can't be solved with these tools.
 
I own (hoard) maybe 25 of them, and always have one in my pocket.

Victorinox Classic.
 
A Wenger SI and A Vic Farmer are in the rotation and I keep a Vic Fieldmaster in my man-purse/EDC bag.

Carry a super tinker every day. If I could only carry one my manix 2 would not get pocket time.
