Pretty funny!
Interestingly enough, the Romans a couple millennia ago had a form of hobo. I personally believe this to be the first multifunction folding knife. Apparently, they were quite a common item, as I have also seen a version that did not have the smaller tools (said to be an awl, ear cleaner, and toothpick).
Original artifact:
Modern reproduction. If it weren't for the fact they were about a hundred bucks, I'd get one.

Here are a couple in a similar vein:
#1 Swiss Bubble Blower
#2 Space 1999 Swiss Army type knife made of plastic.
#3 Peter Pan multi-tool.I think this was a McDonald's giveaway.
#4 Marx plastic Barlow.
#5 Empire Toys jack knife.
#6 Toy knife that blade slides into handle and then springs back when unloaded.
#7 a group of plastic knives and a hatchet.
#8 A plastic toy sword with a sheet metal scabbard.
#9 & #10 an actual knife called the,"Miss Army Knife".Pink outside with everything a lady needs inside.
