Right now, I carry the Swiss Army Champ knife. I got it with my first paycheck at my first job. I will forever be a fan of SAKS.

    I just don't remember who said that, but it's so true... 😀 I've been carrying a small, light Minichamps for almost all my life. Does everything I need, just don't ask it impossible tasks. My Father carried a larger model all his entire life.

    Sounds complicated but very simple in practice.

    For 40 years, people have been giving me SAKs for Christmas and my birthday. I have drawers full of them. Each time, the giver insists that this latest one will be useful, but they're just...not useful. They are interesting toys, for sure.
    Many of the things shown in this video have no real-world value, or take more effort to do with the SAK. Other things are sortof laughable. Some of the things shown were incredibly clumsy or contrived.
    The limb saw was a new one, but actually a safety issue, as shown.
    I really tried using each of the SAKs I was given. For every minor success, there must have been 100 major failures.
    Despite all the nasty oil in which the SAKs sppear to have been soaked, many of the SAKs have rusted. Also, the oil does not seem to function as a lubricant, as the implements tear my nails, but require a tool to open.
    For most of the implements, I have been unable to find a viable use.
    Years ago, we did a survival exercise. By the time I was done, I had a house (complete with doors and windows), various dishes, utensils, floor mats, furniture (sofa, chairs, table, workbench), a comfy bed, a washing area, plumbing (with faucets and running water), a bathroom, and various toys. Several others went with their SAKs--and constantly wanted to borrow my tool. They failed the exercise. Could a SAK have done the job my tool did? Maybe. Could it have done the same job in the same time? Not a chance.
    Honestly, I was really proud of my work, but was not the winner. The winner had only a Buck knife, but you'd never have known to see his work. He was in a different group, so I did not get to see his work until afterward.
    My point is, when I need something I can rely on, it won't be a SAK. I really don't know of a situation in which I would choose a SAK over the other options available. Even if SAKs were suddenly the only option, there is no one SAK that would do the job. Maybe 3 or 4 would be needed to have what was needed for just daily activities. I am unable to justify the weight for the minimal function it may provide--especially when there are a plethora of options that will do a better job, and will do whatever is needed.
    In one word, SAKs are inadequate.
