Not if that means carrying 20 tools everywhere. A swiss army knife and/or
gerber combo tool is FAR more useful (in the long run) than carrying all 12
tools separately. Each individual tool is better than the equivalent piece on
the combo tool, but the cost to convienience/accesability is too high.
And many great innovations have occured because of people coming up with uses
for a tool, that hadn't been considered a likely prospect by others.
