Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

I'm one of those guys who always carries a pocketknife. This works great in our roadside kits, as it gives us the convenience of a multitool, without risking getting us fired for having it.

It's tsa compliant but not all tsa guys may see it that way. Be careful with international travel though. Will allow you to tackle small jobs while travelling and you don't have to check it in your luggage.

The dime's pivots also use torx (t-8) screws, but if you plan to adjust them, you'll need two bits. The flathead screwdriver is 5/8 long and has a 1/4 wide tip. The pivots are 5/32 thick.

Wire cutters can cut coat hanger without deforming. They're two pieces of metal, soldered together. It retains the belly of the dime's blade. The scissors are spring-loaded.

Cons

E. Looks cool but not practical. I hate the bottle opener that sticks out of one end, as i thought that folded up somehow but it doesn't.

In terms of quality this one is fair enough, the tools are a bit unfinished on edges and it's a little sticky to open but a lit... Read More

Price

Great for when you don't want a leatherman strapped to your hip, and the price is right.

Packaging/appearance

The last 1/16 of the needlenose are smooth, which is a welcome feature.

Competitiveness

Gerber has also led the way in offering a full-size bladeless mt.

Within its limitations, this is a small but very useful set of tools, although it obviously can't handle some heavy-duty jobs t... Read More

-2 stars for cheap construction, but they get one star back for being the first on the market to address tsa issues in a multi-... Read More

Do not attempt this with a leatherman micra brand tool.
