I had a full sized multitool in the kit, and it was a real struggle for me to give it up <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Weight isn't as big a deal to me as with some people, but I see what you're saying about the blades.

The scalpel is mainly for cutting on myself if I need to for any reason. The two straight edge razors are for skinning game or other duties requiring a thin sharp blade like that (splitting water purification tablets, etc). The leatherman micra blade is for scraping ferrocium/magnesium rods (I'm going to include a small one in the future) so I don't dull up the other knives, and the gerber ridge knife is for everything else <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

But yeah, that is an awful lot... as you mentioned they take up so little room that it's hard to resist stuffing another in there, but if I do find something I need to include, I know what I can take out <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Thanks for the comments!
