Pretty good reason to me! +2It's pretty much the same with me. I discovered SAKs and then discovered different models and then discovered different models and then discovered MTo and then discovered different models... That's pretty much how it went down.

I know about finding different models...a nice side affect of reading this forum!
I like the object, I like its design. Besides being beautiful and useful I also like the perception people have of the swiss army knife. People don't see it as an aggressive tool and they're not scared of it if someone takes it out of the pocket. I think this is one the reasons behind its success through the years.
I'm gonna use a modification of the same line I used in a speech I made on duct tape during a speech class. In my opinion, if you've got an SAK and a roll of duct tape, you can get yourself out of any bind. It has fought in wars, has been to space, been used by Presidents, was the costar of two TV shows, had its own action figure (again based off that same TV show) and saved countless lives everywhere. They even broke into Mir with one!
The SAK bug caught me when I was a kid and Macgyver came on the air. The following Christmas a very happy boy recieved a climber. I carried that knife for a while but lost it. A few years later I recieved a Tinker for my birthday, I was probably 12.
