Yeah, I carry a basic swiss army knife. It comes in real handy in IT. I use it almost daily whether I'm cutting open a box or using the screwdriver to open up something. I don't need a huge blade.

Bill, what knife do you have with a hoof pick built in?
It's a Swiss Army Equestrian:



Notice that the tweezers (little gray tab) - thus, the toothpick as well - are at the same end as the hoof pick. If I'd designed this knife, I'd have put the toothpick and the hoof pick at opposite ends.

I used to, but then I got one confiscated because I forgot about it when getting on a plane.
I almost lost mine when I forgot to leave it in the car while I flew to Seattle.

I discovered that if you put it in your computer bag and it accidently slips underneath the power supply, it tends to go unnoticed.

Thanks Bill,

I need to find one for my wife since her horse trailer tack room knife flew the coop at a show.

I see what you mean about the tweezers and toothpick. I use the tweezers in my Swiss very often for removing splinters and I don't need hoof stuff on it.

Colmbia River K.I.S.S In the Dark in my pocket, Victorinox Swiss Champ in my fanny pack and the key chain knife in the first post on my work keys.
