Without question, my favorite is the Victorinox Alox Cadet.
However, the most useful for me is the Victorinox Classic SD. I use mine every single day, and I use every tool in that knife on a regular basis.

Thank you Ben! Yes, not only are they getting harder to find...the prices are really taking off!
This one is probably a later 90's Old Cross model with the nickel silver alloy liners (like the Soldiers). The older ones have brass liners but those tend to stay in my collection and out of my pocket.

The Explorer Plus is my all-time favorite, as it has just about the right combo of tools for me. It's a little thick at 4 layers, but you get used to it. I think I own about 5 of them. You know, in case there is a shortage or something.
I also dig the Classis SD, Manager, Compact, Executive, Super Tinker . . . .

Awesome pictures powernoodle and I'm thinking about getting a Super Tinker, but I already have a Deluxe Tinker. I like the Deluxe, but it's really thick with the pliers and admittedly I've only used them once.

On the bay just type in pocket suspension clip it's a little pricey, but I really like it for my SAK's.

My fav is the Explorer too but a short time ago I picked up a custom made Yeoman, which gives me basically the same tools but one layer less so I have been carrying it lately. Both have the P-7 clip on them! Pictured is the Explorer (top) and the custom Yeoman (bottom). I have Plus scales for the Explorer but just haven't felt the need to change them out yet!

Nice I thought about picking up the Yeoman, but it's twice the price of the Explorer and it's not worth it too me nice knife though!
