I haven't seen my favorite mentioned here - the Hercules (available for about $60 USD).

Large locking main blade, nice saw, decent pliers (tho not up to Leatherman-type standards).

I like having the scissors, but I could give them up for a file / metal saw blade, and I'd happily trade one of the Phillips screwdrivers for a small blade, but overall it's a nice, versatile knife / tool.

If the pliers are more important, and I need a file (e.g., for keeping my axe sharp), then my Leatherman 300 Super Tool ($70 USD)is my fave.
