It’s a balance. There are times when versatility is “the cat’s pajamas”. For example, the Swiss knife.

However, though the Swiss knife often has a Philips screwdriver on it, if you are going to be putting in a lot of screws, a full sized screwdriver, or even an electric screwdriver, is much better.

But if you want a multi-tool, to do a little bit of a lot of things, it’s hard to beat a Swiss knife.

So, the right tool for the right job.

Yep, I have to say, my EDC Swiss knife is very handy.
Scissors, screwdrivers, tweezers, and even a couple of these weird foldout things that I can use to cut with.

The common Swiss knife is silly toy compared to the Wenger 16999 Swiss Army Knife Giant. It's available on Amazon for a mere $1,371.94. And the reviews are nothing short of hilarious. Trust me, it's worth a look.

Knife Giant
