Currently got a leatherman sidekick, handy little thing, not too big, have a little silver alox pioneer in my pocket when out and about, although sometimes carry my late grandad's victorinox pocket pal for sentimental reasons.
Sometimes carry on my keys a little victorinox manager, black one with Airbus logo that I picked up whilst working on the A380's in Germany.
Knocking around at home are a handful of cheap SRM's and Enlans that are good when pottering around the garden. Also have a couple of Mora's.
Gone but not forgotton over the years are a leatherman wave, confiscated when I tried to carry it through customs / security, and a handful of SAKs and cheap pocket knives.
As an engineer, I admire the guys modding the SAKs and would like a custom jobby when funds allow, maybe a couple of larger SAKs as well.

Hi fellow engineer (although I'm not in the field of aircrafts). What do you think, how many of us members are engineer. Maybe I should start a thread with that question :)
