I personally find the overall utility just flat out handy. I have had to do everything I would have needed to do with any of my tinker or spartans but the pioneer did it and then did it even better (except for opening wine). I find the heftyness and thinness of it to be the best quality. I think it is by far my favorite in town and out of town pocket knife.. I do sometimes feel like it may be too heavy for pocket carry (I carry it loose with my keys in my right front pocket) but then I often change my mind and don't feel it at all.
Do you carry a pioneer / old soldier? Why do you carry that knife and only that SAK (even if you carry another little one on the side)? What is your breakdown of pros and cons?
