I used to carry a SAK all the time, generally something on the order of a Vic. Ranger. I also carried a 5" Vice Grip and a small flathead/phillips screwdriver. Can't stop fixing things.

Then the Leatherman tool came out and I was set, that replaced them all.
Now I have a few SAKs around, one in each bag, some bigger, some smaller, a Classic on my keyring. I have a small collection of multitools, which are some of my favorite knife gifts. People I know who aren't into knives will tend to like and use a multitool.
I think the Swisstool Spirit is the best of the best, although now that I'm retired, I don't generally carry a large multitool. I keep a Leatherman Pro with my home medical equipment. (Cyborg, need to adjust my parts. :grumpy
But the Skeletool CX that
never too sharp gave me has completely revised my multitool carrying habits. It is always with me. And gets used. It's like my old ViceGrip, screwdriver, and knife all over again, in one compact lightweight package. I clip it in a shirt pocket and it hardly weighs it down.
