The 2011 Bladeforums.com knife is an easy open jack and guess what.... the secondary blade is a combination bottle opener and screwdriver! Great Eastern Cutlery is making the knife and it should be a beauty. If you're a fan of traditional tool knives, I'd recommend checking it out before the May 27th order deadline.

Leatherman revealed two new multi-tools today at Shot Show 2011 and on their Facebook page. Here they are: the Leatherman Sidekick (left photo) and the Leatherman Wingman (right photo).
"After about a year of consumer, “channel” (the retailers and what they want) research, materials and manufacturing research and testing, these two models are a very strong answer to what we found people were looking for... The Sidekick and Wingman are definitely geared more for the first-time buyer. Someone who may not be familiar with how helpful a multi-tool can be, but isn’t sure they want to invest just yet in a Wave, or Skeletool, or maybe a Super Tool looks like a little more than they’ll need."
