Victorinox, the maker of the Swiss Army Knife, has announced a new knife that also includes a USB Memory Stick (http://www.swissinfo.org/sen/Swissinfo.html?siteSect=511&sid=4791994). Is this cool or what? Now, if it only had a corkscrew, it would be the perfect tool!

i know i've seen pocketknives with Torx bits on them; don't know if they were Victorinox or not. but if you put a flash card on one of those, you'd have a pretty slick tech tool right there.

not only bad for flying, but i know that i dont take my knife places i want my usb key to be...although if i worked in an office or something and just needed my knife occasionally it would be nice.
i would love to see leatherman make something similar, i like thier knives better, and i bet there would be an excellent protction for theusb key built in.

In the article it says that there will be different versions, including a version without blades that is airplane safe.....
but that only makes me wonder ... is that still considered a pocket knife??

Maybe the blades will be plastic? :confused: :rolleyes:
