I used to work next to this guy. If a box came in, I would just cut the packing tape open with a house key from my pocket… unless he saw me looking like I was about to open the box.

Then I needed to wait for him to walk over with his damn leatherman and flip it to just the right thing. Whole ordeal usually added time to the stupid box opening.

This is why I daily carry a Skeletool, no scratching at nail nicks trying to get the right tool out, the blade opens like any other pocket knife, there's no "which one is it", it's one pull for a screwdriver and two pulls for the pliers. Sure the advertised "tool count" is low, it doesn't open cans, sew leather or steal cable, but I've got a knife, screwdriver and pliers on me at all times.
