If you think the Espada is ridiculous, look at some of the Midgards Messer knives. They make some obscenely large knives with overly complicated folding mechanisms. Some of them are best described as pocket swords…
Had to check Lowes for the Klein knife. $16.98, not bad for a truck knife.
Estwing makes one too
Award accepted! Best part is my Mommy or Daddy didn't buy it for me, and it wasn't even my turn. I'm thrilled you got the facetious, comedic jest of it.
Got one of these from Academy a few years ago for chopping off snake heads, I've used it 3 or 4 times, works great.

My neighbor is an HVAC guy. Showed me his knife a while back. He has been using the same Milwaukee knife for several years now. Said he is surprised how well it has held up, even more surprised that he hasn't lost it yet.
I used Klein tools for many years and still have my lineman's pliers among others. If I were going to buy one it would be the Klein.
A gentleman who lives in California brought me up to speed on laws there-- it is illegal to carry a knife in your truck or otherwise with a dagger type profile --
But an implement with the same profile and capabilities, but meant to be used as an HVAC tool is no problemo
- i havent fact checked this, but from what i know of California, sounds plausible
