I have number of "everyday" suites. There is no knife in my Sunday
purse because I usually hang out in the church kitchen, but that is
going to change next Sunday -- on my way home last Sunday, I wanted to
cut a pepper off the vine, but not one of the tools in my pockets was
suitable. I didn't want to damage the vine, so I had to hope that it
would keep until next Sunday.

I don't think there's a spare key-chain knife in my stash, so I'll
have to swap back and forth with one of the other suites until I can
buy one. Keychain knives can't be bought, actually; one has to luck
into them.

A comb is common to all the suites. The Sunday suite has half a
dressing comb; my waiting-room suite has an unbroken dressing comb; my walking/driving suite has a pocket comb; my riding suite has a
re-enactor's horn comb in the wallet.

I don't own a comb. It's probably been at least 10 years since I used
one. This probably depends on your hair type, but I usually feel that my fingers do a better job at straightening the hair without making it look
stern.

I also don't currently have any kind of pocket knife, but I don't see
that as a good thing. I just haven't missed it enough recently.

Legends of prediction are common throughout the whole Household of Man.
Gods speak, spirits speak, computers speak. Oracular ambiguity or
statistical probability provides loopholes, and discrepancies are
expunged by Faith. -- Ursula LeGuin, The Left Hand of Darkness, ch. 5
