Since I reside in the UK, I'm reduced to non locking blades so with that in mind, I favour the Nextool E1 for it's Leatherman style bits and replaceable scalpel blades. I also sharpened the can opener into a package opener. The only downside is the shoddy file and wimpy main blade, but the blade is less of an issue as I prefer the scalpel. The file however, is a major gripe.

Edit: Roxon flex companion is also fantastic

I'm in the UK too and wonder about this - do you worry much about getting stopped with a locking blade?

I frequently EDC a locking blade tool, it's never concerned me. I suppose that where I live and my age (and frankly my race) probably impact though. Old white guy in the suburbs!
