My Mom always carried a little Swiss knife on her keychain as long as I can remember. She would use most of the features of this little knife on a daily basis. Through the years I saw Mom slicing apples to eat as a snack with the knife and often Mom would use the little scissors to cut her nails or her grandchildrens nails. Dad had a larger Swiss knife and I recall how happy he was when he bought it. Dad showed everyone all of the handy gadgets on his knife. I'm sure the knife reminded Dad of his days in the Swiss Army where every soldier receives one. I have inherited my parents love of the Swiss knife and have one hanging on my keychain and use it daily.
