I'm inclined to think that this was a real feature, because otherwise it would be easy to stress or crack the delicate hinge that connects the rotating fork-spoon unit to the body of the tool

Got my wife these for Mother's Day. I bought one that was in great condition but had a jacked up sheath and one that was a bit worn looking (scratches and dull blade) but had a decent sheath. So now we have his and hers Flairs. Win win!¡! One has date codes 0799 on both handles and the other has 0799 on both handles.
SwissBianco M-Sharp, a diamond pad sharpener to keep a good working edge on knives. Paracord with snake knots added for better grip when using the sharpener.
This is my everyday carry, only thing missing is my multitool pocket knife I got from my gf.

This little nice "pocket knife" from Wenger was displayed on the IWA-Exhibition in Nürnberg. The funny thing ist that you can really buy it (it costs about 900 Euros)!
A 2x3mm fits nicely in the hook tool!
Stainless steel is fundamentally an alloy, a blend of metals, with the primary components being iron, chromium, and often nickel. The magnetic properties of stainless steel are largely determined by this alloy composition, with specific types demonstrating stronger magnetic behavior.
In the intricate world of stainless steel, understanding the magnetic properties of different types is crucial for anyone dealing with magnets. While the magnetism of stainless steel can seem like a complex topic, knowing the basics can significantly enhance its utility across a broad range of applications. Remember, when in doubt, a neodymium magnet can often provide the answer!
Below we'll review the most common types of stainless steel and their magnetic properties.
Austenitic Stainless Steel (Home Appliances)
When it comes to your home appliances, especially stainless steel refrigerators, you may have noticed an interesting phenomenon: some of them don't hold magnets. But why is this the case, when we've established that certain types of stainless steel are indeed magnetic? The answer lies in the specific type of stainless steel used in these refrigerators.
Most home appliances, including refrigerators, often use Austenitic stainless steel—specifically types 304 or 316. These variants are popular due to their high corrosion resistance, aesthetic appeal, and formability—qualities crucial for household appliances. However, the Austenitic family of stainless steel, characterized by high chromium and nickel content, is generally non-magnetic.
Ferritic Stainless Steel (Most Magnetic)
When dealing with magnets, particularly neodymium magnets, Ferritic stainless steel stands out for its remarkable magnetic properties. This is largely due to its high iron and chromium content and minimal nickel.
Among the Ferritic stainless steels, type 409, with 11% chromium content, is known for good corrosion resistance and formability, coupled with its magnetic nature. Type 430, another popular variant, contains 17% chromium, making it even more corrosion-resistant while still maintaining its magnetism. Finally, type 446, with a higher chromium content of as much as 27%, exhibits excellent resistance to high-temperature corrosion and is still attractive to magnets.
Martensitic Stainless Steel (Hardened)
In the Martensitic family, the 400 series, including type 410 and 420, show impressive magnetic characteristics. Type 410, a general-purpose stainless steel with 11.5% chromium, provides reasonable corrosion resistance and magnetism. On the other hand, type 420, with a higher carbon content, is a hardenable stainless steel offering excellent wear resistance and is also magnetic.
Notably, the magnetism of these Martensitic stainless steels, specifically 410 and 420, can enhance with heat treatment. Hence, if hardness and magnetism are both required in your application, Martensitic stainless steel should be your top choice.
Duplex Stainless Steel (Hybrid)
Duplex stainless steel, a hybrid that combines characteristics of Austenitic and Ferritic stainless steels, also displays magnetism. Known for their high strength and excellent resistance to stress corrosion cracking, Duplex steels like type 2205 also work well with neodymium magnets due to their mixed Austenitic-Ferritic structure.
A quick test of my new D90 with the 50mm 1:1.4D Prime. A little overprocessing in Lightroom to up the moodiness (it's a multitool with issues).

Manufactured by Schrade as a ST5E. The slip joint pliers make this my overall favorite of all multi's.

I needed a toolroll for the mountainhack, so I decided that a good solution would be to strap it onto the front of the rack (the rack, despite being 9×9, is a rando rack afterall and I don't want to encourage myself to load the exposed parts of it too much.
So I brazed a couple of slats into the nose of the rack (angled for cosmetics, which would have worked better if one hadn't have slipped out of place during brazing), looped a couple of toestraps around them, and sewed a ~10×12 toolroll to hold a couple of tires, a minipump, multitool, patch kit, and tire lever (with one empty pocket for, I dunno, a wrench?)
I don't have the rando bag sewn yet, so I've wedged the pink rando bag from the born-again Trek onto the thing so I can have a bag for any brevets I ride on this machine before I sew a new one up.
Of course I have a pump and a first aid kit and some other miscellany that I carry: www.flickr.com/photos/24831034@N08/4453628025/in/set-7215...
But this is my "tool burrito." It's easy to throw it in my pannier, my backpack, my purse... (If I carried a purse and had the desire to carry tools, it would theoretically be easy to do.)
I got this to replace my Leatherman Charge Ti and Spare Bit Kit in my under seat bag on my bicycle. This fits great in my jersey back pocket. Here are the specs of the tool from where I bought it at biketiresdirect.com
The b17 Multi-Tool includes the most-used bike tools in an innovative and compact package. Magnetic driver bits lock into either of the two drivers located at the corner edge of the tool body. When not in use the driver bits are held in rubber sleeves on the tool body that fold in for a compact size and to lock the bits in place so they don't get lost.
In the center of the tool body is a chain tool with spring-loaded removal. Once removed, the chain tool features a magnetic hex that fits into the driver for a better grip and leverage. 230 grams.
Includes:
1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 8mm Hex Wrenches
T10 and T25 Torx Wrenches
Flat and Phillips Screwdrivers (Two sizes each)
#0 and #1 Spoke Wrenches

Which did I buy - Macro Lens ($600) vs Extension Tubes ($30)?
I'll let you guess.
If it helps you work it out, I have just bought a 18mm f2 prime lens (not a macro lens). The softness around the edge of the frame should give it away.
And, by-the-way, a single Fuji extension tube is $87.00. I didn't buy one of those either.

I talked therider into going on a Wirehead Long Ride.
What's a Wirehead Long Ride? Well, generally it involves going off-road for at least part of it. It's gotta involve a good hard climb, and a good fast descent. It's taken at a decent enough pace that you realize that you covered some real distance, but not too fast. Starting and stopping for pictures is totally OK. It has to start and end at home. And it's gotta be self-supported, where the people riding take enough spares that there's little chance of needing to call for a ride home. So, a little bit like a randonnee, but shorter. And with some off-road time for good measure.
Now, I'd been taunting him about his motorcycling, pointing out that, while his Goldwing gets 38mpg, there *are* no skinny motorcyclists. (actually, that's a lie and I know it. For example, Piyush is perfectly skinny) I mean, the Goldwing has reverse because it's too hard to back out, so you don't even get exercise manhandling the motorbike that's big enough to have air conditioning on it. And so I coaxed him into biking to work, although his trip across the country kinda put a stop to that for a while. And then I coaxed him into an abbreviated version of one of my long rides.
Oh, and the trunk bag I carry came in handy. I was feeding Joy so he wouldn't bonk. One guy was riding down the mountain and asked if we had a chain tool (I've got two... one on the multitool and a Park tool) And then I took a little bit of a spill because I forgot that a 26x1.5 slick doesn't have quite enough grip on trails when inflated to 80psi, so I dabbed it with antiseptic. And then I got some carryout for Mrs. Wirehead, so I expanded it so it would all fit.
I spent a lot of time lately explaining to therider how much better my brain works after I started cycling. Part of what keeps me going is because I want to see exactly how good I can get, but the other part of it is because of how good it makes me feel. I can't go back to the way things were before. It just takes the wherewithal to stick with cycling for a month or three.
