I ignored Swiss Army knives in general for many years as being gimmicky. As was mentioned above, I bought one for an extended business trip and fell in love with them. Have been carrying one just about every day since for the last 30 years. I started with the the Tinker model. Have a good selection of them now.
I generally ignored all Benchmade knives as being too expensive for "just another knife". In a weak moment, I bought my first last year and was pretty impressed overall. Not a fan boy, but at least I look at them now.
I still pretty much ignore Kershaw knives in general. No particular reason other than I am comfortable in my modern choices. I do like ZT knives, but not the flippers. I just out grew flippers and prefer AO's if I want a fast opening knife.
