FFS. This is preposterous. A multi-tool is a beautifully engineered thing. A tool, widely applicable in the everyday. As Bruce Sterling writes in his Last Viridian Note: “... a multitool IS a set of keys. It's a set of possible creative interventions in your immediate material environment. That is why you want a multitool. They are empowering.” I carry one everywhere. I used the knife yesterday to open a taped-up cardboard box. In fact, that's one of the most used functions. That and the tweezers and scissors. How can those blades be "weapons"? They don't lock! They're not designed for stabbing or anything like that, like a hunting knife. You'd be pretty desperate to threaten someone with one. If someone threatened me with a swiss-army knife I'd probably laugh at them. “Stop the world, I want to get off” [1] http://www.viridiandesign.org/2008/11/last-viridian-note.html http://www.viridiandesign.org/2008/11/last-viridian-note.htm...
