    Default Those Little Dinky Tweezers

    Let's be honest. Has anyone here found those little dinky tweezers in Swiss Army Knives really useful for anything?

    yah i have a couple pairs of tweezers. i have a pair in my first aid kit too. but i really like the pair that comes with the swiss cause they are super thin and have a nice edge for getting the really small splinters and needles. and they are always easier for me to get to cause i just have to reach into my pocket for them.

    Yes, splinter removal and they do a good job of it. I like that they're there, they don't take up any room and don't get bent. Mac

    Dang...if picking on the regulars (in fun) is out of line, you could just say so and I'd stop. You don't have to run me off the forum.

    Well, some men need little tweezers, and some men need Channel-Locks.

    Besides it ain't the size of the tool that gets the job done........
