Seeing that I am NOT a handyman whatsoever, I was quite impressed with myself that I actually owned 11 out of the 12 tools on this list (currently, no vise grip locking pliers in my toolbox).
From The Art of Manliness:
“Your girlfriend needs help putting some furniture together. Your wife asks you to install a ceiling fan. Your kid needs her bike fixed. Of course you have the tools to take on these jobs, right? For many younger men these days, owning a well equipped toolbox is something that only their dads do. Often when these men have a project, they have to go to someone else to take care of their handyman needs. But a man should be self-reliant. He should have the tools and know-how to tackle basic projects around the house.”

I’m missing the crosscut saw. Other than that I’m covered.
Does a reciprocating saw count?
