I carry a Champ Plus which is the champ minus the pliers. I find I usually make use of a blade, the Phillips and occasionally the scissors. Not sure when I will use all the other goodies but I am ready. And waiting. And waiting. I always wondered why they don't call it the Champ Minus since it contains LESS than the Champ.

See profile: I carry a Victorinox Swiss Memory, every day, everywhere, except on airplanes. I also have a Tinker I usually keep in the car.

I use every tool on the SAK frequently -- I'd be hard put to say which gets used the most, other than the flash drive itself.

Tinker is my EDC.

If our idiot lawmakers ever get their way and ban the carrying of knives altogether I'll have to switch to a Swiss Card as my EDC and only carry the SAK when hiking.

I carry my Tinker with me daily and use it often. I keep my Champ + in my purse in a leather pouch. Too heavy to me to carry in my pocket, but it is there when I need it. sak.gif

The first SAK I carried (starting in high school) was a Tinker. I now carry a Spartan. I have a second Spartan I keep in my car. I have a SwissCard I keep in the sleeve pocket of one of my flight jackets. I have a Camping I keep in my tool box at home along with a slightly larger model, but I don't know what it's called. I checked the Victorinox website and mine doesn't match anything they have pictured. I've had it for many years, so it's possible it was eithr discontinued or they added features to it mine doesn't have.
