Knife Tool
Where to find a customized swiss army/multi tool knife?
I had to relinquish my old pocket knife after going through airport security and I am looking to buy a new one. The problem is I can't find one that has the features I am looking for. The knives I have found either have way too many tools or just one or two knives. I have tried searching on the internet but haven't found anything. Do you know of someone or somewhere to customize a pocket knife?
You can always try ebay.

Many people think that using a handsaw is hard work but it needn't be. A handsaw, used correctly, can produce good results with minimal effort. Â Here are some points to remember when using a handsaw.
Buying a handsaw. There are good quality disposable handsaws on the market. These have hardened teeth that do not need sharpening. When selecting a saw do not be tempted to buy the cheapest one as these are often of poor quality. A good disposable handsaw will last a long time before it becomes dull. When the saw does become dull a new one will have to be bought. A dull saws should be disposed of responsibly so that it can be recycled.
- Holding the handsaw. The correct way to hold a handsaw is to grip the handle with your thumb, second, third and forth fingers. Your first (index) finger should be in a pointing position along the side of the handle, in the direction of the length of the handsaw. Having your index finger in this position gives greater control over the handsaw.
- Marking out you cut. Using a square or straightedge, draw a fine line with a pencil  where you want the cut to be. Take your time with this as mistakes are easily made. There is an old saying "Measure twice, cut once"
- Supporting the work piece. You will need something to support the piece of wood that you are cutting. A saw horse or bench is good for this but make sure it is sitting solidly without any rocking.
- Keep things in line. When using a handsaw, the saw blade, your forearm and shoulder should be in line with each other. They should also be in line with the line that you have drawn on the work piece. Make sure you are standing comfortably.
- Making the cut. The secret of using a handsaw is to let the saw do the work. Allowing the handsaw to do the work will require the least effort and produce the best result. Hold the handsaw at about a 45 degree angle. There are reasons to hold the saw at a different angle but I won't go into these here. Holding the handsaw at 45 degrees will produce optimum results. When you are sawing use an even, to and fro action. Apply a small amount of pressure on the down stroke and release the pressure on the upstroke. Use your index finger to steady the saw. You should not cut down the middle of the line but, instead cut tightly along the waste side of the line. Remember, when cutting, to keep everything in line as mentioned above.
If you have never used a handsaw before practice on some scrap bits of wood to get used to the technique. Sawing a straight line can be very satisfying.

Rescue Tool
Paper is one of those things that always seems to overflow in any home. Piles of mail, piles of schoolwork, piles of magazines, piles of receipts, piles, piles everywhere. So how do you get these piles under control? A few home organization tools can rescue you from your overflowing paper problem.
A desktop filer is one of the home organization tools that can really help with your mail problems. This one has become a lifesaver for me and has worked with my home organization clients as well. It works great for keeping my bills and mail organized. Some files that might help you get started: action (bills that need immediate attention), to read (magazines, letters, newsletters), to file (bills that have been paid, magazine articles you want to keep, financial statements). Those are some of the basic files that can at least help you get started.
You know what kind of mail you get and what you need to do with it. Just keep logical groupings in mind as you create your files. Word of warning though: do not make too many or you will have a hard time figuring out where things need to go. The goal here with this home organization tool is to help you simplify, not complicate things.
A mailbox station is another one of those great home organization tools that can help you tame your paper problem. Create a “mailbox” for every person in your family. This can be as simple or elaborate as you want to make it. If you want to get the whole family involved (and hopefully get their buy-in to use it), have them make their own mailbox or decorate their own mailbox.
A paper sorter, shoeboxes, a plastic container with drawers are all excellent home organization tools to use for this. In this mailbox put whatever mail the person receives, notes for them, reminders, even money now and then as an incentive to be sure to check it. This can work great for your kids too because they can put permission slips in your mailbox and you can put the signed ones back in their mailbox. Just be sure to make it a house rule that everyone checks their mailbox at least once a day. This only works as a home organization tool if you get everyone in your house to actually use it.
