I don't know if you're serious or not but it's a P-38. There's a larger model designated P-51.

That's it, thanks jerryd!

For the past few months now, I've been edc'ing a spartan. It seems to have all I need on a day to day basis, and is a nice combination of light weight and usable tools. Not to mention the corkscrew holds the tiny mini screw driver for eye glasses and sun glasses.

Cannot say this is a favorite because I have never carried it - bought it early this week because I wanted to own a Wenger knife - my first of that brand. It is a Commander model, there are two implements on the bottom I didn't open for the picture. OH

With a trio like that, do you really need anything else?

As much as I love my Opinel's, I have to admit that they don't do it all like a SAK. It seems like every time I carry my Opinel, and don't have a SAK in another pocket, I need to deal with a loose screw, a can, bottle, or something. Even the little classic on my keyring has been put to use to actually help repair something. It seems like our whole world now is held together with small phillips screws, and the SD tip on the Classic nail file fits them very well.

There really is no other pocket knife like a SAK. It's not just a knife, it's a little bundle of solution to many problems in a modern technological society.

The Camper has a great tool set, Scott. It's one of my favs as well. Right now I'm crushing on a 84mm Salesman I recently picked up.
It's basically a small Super Tinker.
