Here's my line of thinking: My wife often resists my preparing efforts. I'm gently introducing things into her purse; a small Garrity LED, an Altoids tin with assorted band aids, first aid cleansing wipes and Shout wipes (very important with two small children) and I'd like to get her used to the idea of a multitool. I am thinking specifically of the Juice S2. Why? Because it is orange.

I remember the thread a couple of months ago where someone asked for reasons he could present to his wife to convince her to EDC a knife. One post talked about some women being more open to something if there was a cuteness factor involved. My wife is very passionate about the color orange. I think I will have much more success convincing her to carry it if she likes the look of it.

My question about the tarp shelter builders is, why didn't they use the SAK to whittle tent poles to suspend the tarp from?
