I'd like the locking screwdrivers. I have had Victorinox screwdrivers fold on me. Carried Wengers for a while and never had that issue.

I like the idea of a locking main blade but I don't like the thinness of the Wenger blades. What I really want is a Farmer with a lock for the main blade and a locking inline Philips and bottle opener/slotted screwdriver.
Uh oh, 50ft-trad is not going to like all these locking tools!  :) :P
Al's a big boy now... he can deal...   :whistle:   :D

WAAAAAAAAHHHHH  :cry: :cry: :cry:

(I would type "I want my mummy", but I wouldn't want that misinterpretted as incestuous) :P

I'm all for Wengers locking drivers, I think they're excellent  :tu: Besides, locking drivers make sense as you are actually meant to use inline force with them ... unlike folding blades  :whistle:

 :D :D

Okay, to play Devil's Advocate here, technically, if you didn't exert any force on a blade, it would never cut anything!  :D 

And don't worry about misinterpretations of "I want my mum" or similar statements...  Only a genuinely psychologically malformed miscreant would make such an assumption...  :D

On the other hand if you said something like "I want my mummy, Yowzah!", that might be interpreted in such a fashion....   :whistle:

However, an Egyptologist might interpret "I want my mummy" as being an example of merely wanting to find the long lost remains of Pharaoh so-and-so, but if said Egyptologist was also of a similarly malformed miscreant mind, he might interpret it as being an incident of both incest and necrophilia!   (Double Eww!)   

Fortunately, I don't think we have any members here who are Egyptologists, so, I wouldn't worry about it!  :D

(Moment of self reflection): scary what comes to my mind when I've had a few beers and sit down to read MT.O!   :ahhh  Maybe I spent a little too much time in school!

Alcohol-fueled brain-dump thread-derailment over...   :whistle:

The first Noble Truth: life is suffering.  Only by accepting that fact can we transcend it.

Carabiner clip would be nice, maybe opposite the Phillips?  ???
