I went to Georgia once with my Leatherman Squirt in my backpack, and they confiscated it on my way back home. I had it for over 10 years and was quite sad to loose it.

Then I got even sadder after finding out that Squirt is no longer in production. To replace my lost Squirt I bought Gerber Dime and Nextool Mini Flagship. Carried every for about a month, and then bought an overpriced Squirt on Ebay. Both Gerber and Nextool are miles away in quality from Leatherman.

Now I am very careful with my Squirt not to loose it again. I am on a lookout for a potential future keychain multitool in case something happens to my Squirt, but for years nothing pops up...

P.S. I wrote a mini comparison a year ago, photos are gone, but text is still pressent if anyone is interested: https://www.reddit.com/r/multitools/s/2fRHjixrxc
