is there, or has there been a multi tool with too many tools?

What tool in your opinion is to unwieldy to use?

Is there ever too many tools ? In Bernard Levines book there is a small section that speaks of exposition knives . It would seem that there was almost a contest among individual knifemakers as to who could build the knife with the most implements . I remember seeing a picture of one there that had well over a hundred blades/tools . It did appear to be rather unwieldy . My copy of this book is still packed at the moment I will try to find it and provide the reference and page number unless someone else here recalls it .

Is that the one that we can't get in the USA yet? It has the butane torch? If so, I want one of those suckers. :) I have the XLT, but it's more of a novelty item than something I'd carry and use. I have the Swiss Tool for that. :)
 
the grotesquely obese XXLT made the cut! BUT WAIT! Although iit was not regarded as a multi-tool, I read somewhere that there is a certain pocketknife made so that the manufacturers added a blade every year, I think. It was built during the 1800's, I'm not really sure. But, imagine that! A blade every year, since the 19th century? WOW!! :eek:
