    Put a battery powered Drimmel on it and no man will be able to live without it.

    This is neat! (But I agree about the corkscrew...and maybe one of those old-fashioned manual canopeners. The ones that look like a hook with a lever.)

    It has one major deficiency, no corkscrew.

    This in a great idea, if really functional. Love how free minds are able to create things that are useful.

    The perfect device for the handyman. Seems as if every family has got one. No matter what's wrong, he can fix it. From a burnt out fuse to a blown engine, he can put it right. I am thankful that I am not a handyman. I don't own a Leatherman knife and I wear only dress watches whose only function is to tell time. I cannot do anything that requires me to fix anything. I can't even pound a nail straight. I realize that I should consider myself a fix-it cripple, but actually, I'm proud of it. I'm sure Howard Roark could fix anything around the house, but I doubt that Einstein or Rembrandt could build a tree house, or would ever want to. This is the true beauty of diversity. I can't nor do I want to ever fix anything. That's what grandsons are for.

    In there advertising they should highlight the person or persons who thought this up. At the price I wonder how well it will sell, but it will get a lot of attention from the backpacker crowd. I can think of numerous reasons to own one. Best product I have seen in quite sometime that isn't attached to a power source. Thanks for posting.

    Definitely agree on the TSA + DHS, too.
    Even without them, assuming its comfortable, its a great way to carry a tool kit.

    Of course the correct solution is abolishing the TSA.
    But until then, this is interesting.
