Not a multitool sighting, but in Edge of Darkness Mel Gibson's daughter's boyfriend keeps a Generation II Ka-Bar USMC knife by the door to deal with unwanted intruders.

I'd be tempted, since I traded away my Gen II Ka-Bar tanto a few years ago.  These are indeed great knives, which is why they've been around almost forever!

Homicide detectives always pick up in the details, which made me wonder why he never told anyone that his daughter was amazingly sick, and they were on their way to the hospital when she was shot.

I also thought it was kind of odd how people were trying to kill him, and yet he kept going back to his house, and almost always stood in front of windows, and yet no one ever shot him when he made it real easy for them.

His cheesy accent was also kind of painful, but overall, I thought the movie was halfways decent.  I'd watch it again someday when it came on TV and there was nothing else on, but I wouldn't go out of my way to see it again. 

What I'd like to know is what book it was based on- I'd like to read that.  They left enough in the movie to hint at there being a lot more- like the British guy who solves problems, and the bad guys kidnapping him only to have him get away, get home and come back twenty minutes later to kill them all.

In short, I thought the movie was worth watching, even though the Ka-Bar had such a small part, and there were no Leathermans!  :D

i didn't think he knew she was sick, saying you got irradiated to everyone is kinda bad to admit too :/ i think thats why her nose started bleeding...

He may not have known at the time she was irradiated, but she vomited several times and they were going to the hospital.  I'm no homicide detective, but I think I'd figure out someone is sick when they are vomiting repeatedly and saying they need to go to the hospital, even if he didn't notice the blood coming out of her nose.
