Looks like I need to start using mine's clip for more than hanging it inside my messenger bag. That is a rockin' story.

I’m a 50 year young women , living in Torrance, California. I received a guppie from a good friend of mine who also praises this little tool. We carry it in our purses. It comes in handy on a weekly basis. One day my friend asked me to tow his car to the paint and auto body shop, this was about 1 mile. So I brought the heavy chain but nothing to hold it together. He was going to tie a knot in it when I got a great idea to use my guppie. I hooked it through the two chains and took up slack. When I started to go I had all the confidence in this small tool. Even when we stopped at a light, the car behind jerked on the chain quit a bit. We made it there safely, thanks to the guppie. What a great tool with numerous capabilities.

That, or unwittingly donate them to the TSAA. The thing I like about the Zilla Jr. that's different from other multitools (like my Leatherman) is the adjustable wrench. I seem to find lots of good uses for it. Agreed, somehow I tend to lose knives as well. That, or unwittingly donate them to the TSAA.

I love the size. yes the leatherman has more options but I got tired of having people ask me if that was a knife in my pocket or was I happy to see them. I wil have to wait and see if the steel in the blade holds up... but I bet i loose the dam thing long before the blade wears out.

Not that I'm exactly a steel snob, since I have several 1095 fixed blades that I enjoy immensely and use often, but CRKT's blades are cheap. Yeah, they've paid who knows how much to some good knife designers to license the names, but AUS-8 (or even AUS-4) is just sub-standard for a knife that costs more than $40. I'll stick with my Benchmade folders and Charles May fixed blades. CRKT uses crappy steel.

Their A.B.C. model is a great dive knife. Perfect for cutting tangled fishing lines or severing the air hoses of al Qaeda frogmen. I wish I hadn't lost mine to Davey Jones's locker.
