This is a tiny little pocket knife, and just the perfect thing for someone who wants to be ready for any little event that might come up!It is important to always be prepared. This belief has led me to always have a pocketknife on my person, but in my goings-about I discovered that I also often needed a pen and a notebook, so I started carrying a Fisher Space Pen everywhere, as well as a small notebook. It was occasionally convenient to carry a small flashlight (which can be more maneuverable/helpful than using a cell phone flashlight), so I started carrying one of those, too, and soon my pockets were forever bulging and a-jangle with 4 different items.The Swiss Army Signature Lite is such a wonderful, useful, light, and compact tool! It combines 3 of the most useful items you can carry into one unobtrusive little device. Always at the ready, well-built, and reliable. The small size means it isn't as unsettling to others when you pull a knife out of your pocket, and the little blade is more than capable of doing 95% of whatever a person might need a knife to accomplish. The scissors are robust and the pen writes without streaking or smudging.The light is enough to take care of any brief task, though it should be noted that the button must be depressed to maintain the light You can't click it on and set it aside. Good to reduce flashlight battery drain from being on in the pocket, but it does reduce the usefulness some in the field.The scales are thicker than a typical Swiss Army Knife, obviously to accommodate the pen and the battery. It is somewhat less aesthetically appealing due to this, but it cannot be avoided.I could not be happier with my little knife. It has reduced my pocket load and allows me to be prepared for all the little things that come up in my day. Perfect, perfect, perfect, and worth the cost!
