"and many pilots carry them (knives)"

I am pretty sure that all commercial pilots carry them. A friend of mine who is a United co-pilot. I remember when he got his job he showed me what they need to carry in their flight case. One mandatory item was a Leatherman, which is a knife, needlenose pliers and an assortment of tools.
