Swiss Army Knives

My first knife was one of those cheap, nasty Swiss Army Knife clones. I loved it when I first got it, but I grew out of it and it was such low quality that it put me of the whole idea of "Swiss Army Knives". I'm pleased to say I'm now cured of this dislike; I recently saw a cheap ($22.45) Victorinox Tinker on eBay. I'm glad I did; it's currently my very favourite knife, though so far I've avoided the temptation to name it "Vera". :-)

So if you're like me and don't like Swiss Army Knives because you got a cheap one once, do yourself a favour and go buy a cheaper Victorinox or Wenger knife Today, preferably one of the ones without a hundred and one tools. The Tinker is good in that regard, I can actually see myself using all the tools (except maybe the bottle opener), and the only tool it's really missing is a pair of scissors (perhaps the Super Tinker would be a bit better)
