1. If you could carry only one knife-based multitool which would it be? It is a relatively new addition to my collection, but it has already proven worthy in several situations. The RescueTool



2. If you could carry only one plier-based multitool which would it be? I really like the T-shank adapter and full size scissors on the Surge, but due to its bulkyness I will have to go with the Wave+



3/4. I do not own any :whistle:

My thoughts exactly. While I suppose an Opinel would count as the lock blade, I'd prefer a fixed blade for heavier duty. Sadly, my current situation doesn't allow for regular carry of a fixed blade. :poh:

These test me in every way to come up with answers  :ahhh


In each case it would be the only tool on your person for the rest of your life.

1.  If you could carry only one knife-based multitool which would it be?  Explorer Plus

2. If you could carry only one plier-based multitool which would it be?  Charge TTi

3. If you could carry only one lock blade knife which would it be? Syderco DragonFly 2. 

4. If you could carry only one traditional folder which one would it be?  I don't have a lot of trads.  I have a CRKT Toothpick thats really neat.

Always fun to revisit these thread. 

1. I think the answer would be same however I have a very strong feeling the Champion is so close these days.  Lots of functions and really not that much bigger IMO. 

2. My answer is the same but the Surge is so darn close it is worth mentioning.   

3. I would change my answer since I now have a Benchmade 555.  While the Dragonfly is a superb knife the BM offers just a little more blade and is so darn fun to open and close. 

4. Here where things get very interesting.  I now have many trads to choose from so it makes this answer very hard.  Easy answer is my Psalm 23 trapper since it is meaningful to me.  Of course that said, I really like my Pemberton.

My third time answering. 

1. Compact.  Thats what I am carrying on my off days. 
2. Surge. 
3. Bradley Alias.
4. Case Premium Stockman
