I’ve every-day-carried a number of expensive knives of various sizes over the years. I eventually landed on the tiny and cheap Swiss Army Classic SD. I am a knowledge worker who mostly sits at a desk during the week. It easily serves for everything that I need a knife to do and then some with its tweezers, scissors, toothpick, and nail file. It’s very small and light. It’s also cheap enough that I don’t really care if I lose one to carelessness or a security checkpoint. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00004YVB2/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_c_api_u7BuAb60YTD47 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00004YVB2/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_c_api_u... When I’m camping, I carry a Leatherman multitool.

I second the Victorinox, but prefer the Climber as the smallest model that has both corkscrew and scissors and screwdriver. Very handy at parties where there is wine but no one has brought a corkscrew! The blade is ok, but a bit flimsy and does not lock, so light duty only. The overall look is innocuous or even dorky rather than tactical. Which suits my needs since I prefer to attend parties and avoid knife fights. That said I would love it if there was a clone or similar knife with the main blade in an abrasion resistant steel like VG-10. Cutting open packages will dull a knife surprisingly quickly. https://www.amazon.com/Victorinox-Swiss-Climber-Pocket-Knife/dp/B00DMXFFHK https://www.amazon.com/Victorinox-Swiss-Climber-Pocket-Knife...
