Yeah, Swiss Army have been selling those for 10-15 years now.

The older ones are all comically small (4-8 MB), in keeping with the memory
prices of ye olde days gone bye.

I never really saw the point of taking a basic tool, with heirloom
potential - it will be precisely as functional a hundred years from now as
it is the day you bought it, if it's reasonably well taken care of - and
intimately integrating it with a component that will be comically obsolete
before the decade is out, and that is likely to become completely
nonfunctional within a decade under normal day-to-day wear and tear.
