    Victorinox Swiss Army knives. If you want a tiny, multipurpose pocketknife, they cannot be beat.

    And they’re cheap enough from TSA eBay sales, why would you accept a crappy knockoff?!

      Their also (or at least used to) honor their warranty. I had problems with one of their knives several years after I bought it. It got replaced without a major hassle. Haven’t had to use the warranty again in decades though, so it could be different now.

      I can’t agree with you more on this. I have used them for years, most recently got one with a scalloped side that fits in your hand so nicely. My son is a cub scout and just got one too, his first pocketknife.
