	Swiss Army knife - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The term "Swiss Army knife" is often used synonymously with the term "pocket knife", and is also sometimes used to describe a tool, especially a software tool, that is a collection of special-purpose tools.

		The Swiss Army knife has also been parodied in animated TV shows such as The Simpsons and the animated version of The Tick, in which a fictional Swiss Army squad carries backpack-sized versions of the knife.
