I fly a desk, and usually just carry a Classic. Sometimes I add a small folder. Outside of cutting the strap on a box of copier paper, I just don't use knives much in my job, and the extra room in my pockets means I don't have to sit on my wallet all day. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk
If I'm honest, I don't need a plier-based MT on my person everyday. I do often carry a lighter-duty one (even something small like a Style PS) with my SAK, but I could get by without. For the days when I don't carry one, I rely on various "stashed" MTs (car, backpack, desk drawer).
I fly a desk as well and started on the opposite end of the spectrum with a Leatherman instead of a SAK. I tried modding my tools to get everything I needed into one package. When that didn't work, I tried going full SAK (2 in fact to get the tool coverage and combinations I wanted). That didn't work either. What does work is pairing a Leatherman with a SAK to cover and complement each others tool sets. Throw a flashlight and lighter into the mix and I can tackle a surprising amount of stuff. The nice thing about my current setup is that it all fits in my pockets instead of on my belt like I used to do.
I have started dressing "business tactical" I wear a shirt (sometimes a tie) and my pants are 5.11 Taclite pro pants.

I do not use the cargo pockets daily, but leave them empty. however, if I am sent out on a mission, trace fiber, network cabinet install, whatever, I have some extra storage. the back pockets are deep, and the wallet goes lower, so you do not feel like you are sitting on it at all. the first day I kept checking that I had not lost it.the front pockets are reinforced where a pocket clip would sitthen there is a knife pocket on the mid-upper thigh on one side, and a small MT pocket on the other side.since I do some non office work, I like that they are rip-stop, water and grime-repellant, and double or triple stitched. I can also put knee pads in from the inside
