Favourite Swiss Army Knife?

Alox Soldier followed closely by the Climber model. I select one or the other based on the occasion. If the Climber came in alox, it would be Victorinox king :thumbup:
 
There's a Classic aboard every day (one of these guys):

And for days when I want a camper-style along too, it'll often be a Wenger Standard Issue. (Alternatives: Ulster Scout, Imperial Scout, MIL-K 818 demo.) I'm trying to like the Cadet, but after the others it always feels too flimsy somehow. Working on this.
 
Alox Soldier and Alox Cadet. I typically carry the Cadet in my pocket when I also have a larger folder clipped to my pocket.
 
I've settled on the Tinker and have several, but have been carrying a Squirt P4 for about a year and am sold on the small pliers. The 3-layer SAKs are just too thick in my pocket. But I've carried only the Classic on three 2000+ mile hikes so it will always have a spot in my knife drawer.
 
For EDC I choose either a Cadet or Recruit, with the Cadet getting the nod most of the time. I also keep my Super Tinker or Craftsman handy in my bag for bigger chores.
 
The Farmer in alox. The Recuit in cellidor.

The Recruit really is hard to beat at 1/3 to 1/2 the price of the Farmer.
