They are pocket knives that open up into plyers, with the addition of a screw driver, a pocket knife, a file, sometimes scissors, a bottle opener and sometimes more. So basically, its a glorified pocket knife haha ^_^ most people around here at keast call them pocket buddies..kin of weird i know

what is it?
Avatar Dreamlight Nov, 03 2009 at 11:18 PM
It is a legume, which puts it closer to a pea than a nut, but it is still neither.
