Best Leatherman-Style Multitool?

An anonymous reader asks: "I'm in the market for a Leatherman style multitool, but some new players have come to the table in the past few years, and I've heard a couple of anecdotes that Leatherman might have been eclipsed. So, I'm asking Slashdot for lots of anecdotes; what are your experiences with your multitool? What's the best one you've seen or used? Have you ever broken one? Do the tools wiggle around after a lot of use? Those are some general questions, but there are two specific ones. First, does the knife blade lock? The quickest way to hurt fingers is using a folding knife when a fixed blade is the right tool, but you can't carry a fixed blade knife into many places. The second question is, how long is the main knife blade? You can't carry a folding knife with tool long of a blade, either (unfortunately). Thanks for any and all help!"

    Please stay where you are sir. As have requested information on a knife that could possible be concealed and thus, used inappropriately, we feel you are a threat to the National Security of the good old USA (The land of the free).

    We have tracked you to your PC and thus to your address. Once again, please stay inside your mothers basement as 4 agents from Homeland Security have been dispached.
