Spent a couple hours down the multitool/EDC rabbit-hole looking to replace my old Leatherman I lost. Decided I didn't need pliers and went with a Victorinox as it's lighter for climbing and hiking.
There are a dizzying array of fanciful options these days but what sold me on Victorinox was the balance of high enough quality + cheap enough to lose and not worry about babying it. It's also a simple design which can be easily self-serviced.
Rare and understated "features" in products today.
