1. Yes. I carry my Victorinox Swiss-Army CyberTool 34 with me religiously.
2. The multi-purpose nature of the knife ensures that I find a use for it almost daily, for everything from opening bottles to cutting off hangnails to repairing eyeglasses or writing a note. It fits in my pocket, so it is not obvious that I'm carrying it, which makes the PTB's happier.
3. The only thing I would change about it would be to keep a better edge on the actual blades longer, or to have a pocket-sized sharpener that I could carry with it, or to make it just a utilitarian but a bit smaller. Not a very realistic change that last one. The only other thing I would like to change is people's perceptions - for some reason, most people I know see a knife and think "weapon", where I see a knife, and I think "tool". Dunno why that is, or how to change it...
