Slim tool, Big Features
By PJVerified Reviewer from Santa Monica, CA on 1/28/2008
Pros:
Compact, Lightweight, Versatile
Best Uses:
At Home, Minor Projects, Small repairs
Describe Yourself:
Handyman
Primary use:
Personal
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This handy little item is big on features yet small enough to carry in your wallet. I've used it quite a few times and have found it to be quite handy in things like fixing eyeglasses, opening well sealed courier packages or measuring bicycle parts. It exceeds the function of a standard pocket knife with a variety of tools designed to do many small jobs that creep up during the course of the day.

So far I've used the knife blade, tweezers, pin, ruler and scissors, micro screwdriver and pen. When my nails grow I'm sure I may need the nail file. This little item has proved itself useful already and is much easier to carry around than my Swiss army knife. Its great to have in your wallet.

got one of these for each of my 4 children as a stocking stuffer. since they are past the "toy" age, they were happy to have a cool little surprise in their stockings. I don't know if the knife is very sharp, but everything else seems to be moderately useful if you consider how little space the set takes up in a pocket or purse
