Wandering around in the wilderness is fun, but if you could ask a caveman what makes life easier, he'd say a tool. Balancing efficiency with flexibility, Tim Leatherman invented this thing in 1980 and has been selling bunches of them since then.
Knife companies call it a tool, tool companies call it a gadget, it's all of the above. Containing a pliers, cutter, Phillips and flathead screwdrivers, leather punch, knife and can opener, it's an easy inclusion into the backpack. Weighing in at about 9 oz. (8 without the case), it's worth the weight, particularly in the event of emergencies.
Even if you don't ever use it, it's just plain cool.
