Subject: RE: Swiss Army Knives and musicians
Sorry Rick, I'm not a fan of the SAK. I've never seen one yet that had a good KNIFE blade.
I carry a small set of jeweler's screwdrivers, needle-nose pliers, diagonal (wire cutter) pliers, and a couple of hemostats (for fishing things out of holes) in my instrument case.
I carry a small stockman pocket knife on my person at all times. I've WORN OUT a good dozen pocket knives over the years, because it's for usin' not just for braggin'.
That's sufficient - no need for gimmicks.
Of course I have 350 pound toolbox bolted to floor of my van - for the emergencies.
