The Gerber Clutch multi-tool (MT) proves that mini tools dont have to be expensive to be useful. It possesses most of the utility had by larger tools, albeit with reduced leverage. In the Clutch you can find needle nosed pliers, wire cutters, a well-shaped blade, two-dimensional drivers, tweezers, and a nail maintenance tool. Another bonus over some competitors, like the Leatherman Squirt P4, is a conventionally ground and larger blade that could fill many of your EDC roles. Possible downsides would include: a bit larger size and more weight than the P4 MT (the mini MT class leader I think) and the smallest flathead screw bit needed some grinding for additional precision. But at a mere (more or less) the Gerber Clutch multi-tool offers a ton of utility in a compact package at a bargain price. ////////////////////Nutnfancy Likeability Scale: 7 out of 10

Swisstool Spirit multi-tool: "Mid-size Surprise" by Nutnfancy

Swisstool Spirit multi-tool: "Mid-size Surprise" by Nutnfancy Video Clips. Duration : 24.28 Mins.
Victorinox makes high value multi-tools that last and the Spirit series continue that tradition. This Nutnfancy review concentrates on the regular Spirit model (US model #53800 and Spirit Plus that comes with an accessory tool kit) but references the other models in the lineup: Spirit S (US #53809, has the same tool set but both has the clip and serrated sheepsfoot (butter) blades, no scissors), Spirit X (US #53814, proven Victorinox PE clip blade, scissors, file, rest the same), and the blackened Spirit models. The 7.4 ounce carry weight of the Spirit is decent for the amount tool capability this MDMT provides: sharp nose pliers with hard wire cutters, main blade (either a goofy serrated "butter" blade that can rescue cut or the proven Victorinox clip blade depending on model), wood/metal file (model specific), 2mm, 3mm, and 6mm flat blade drivers, Phillips driver, "strong crate opener" (great feature), can opener (my fav in an MT), cap lifter, woodsaw, multi-purpose hook, chisel/scraper (love) with wire strippers, reamer/awl (love it, drills good), cork screw slot (and lanyard hole), and either nylon or leather carry case. Each tool opens with precision and satisfying snick. The pliers show good precision and cuts small to medium sized nails easily. The ergonomics on the Spirit are a highlight with both the closed and opened positions showing rounded gripping surfaces and with tools easily accessed when the MT is closed. As of 2010, the Spirit Plus models (like this ...

Multi-Tool I'd Like to See

Multi-Tool I'd Like to See Video Clips. Duration : 3.13 Mins.
I own a few multi-tools and I've been thinking about features I'd like to have (or not have) on at least one multi tool that I could use for everyday carry. In the graphic, I have the scissors upside down, but you get the idea. Let me know if you've seen anything similar out there, or tell me what you'd like to see in a multi-tool!

"The Multi-Tool Continuum" by Nutnfancy
on Sunday, November 25, 2012
"The Multi-Tool Continuum" by Nutnfancy Video Clips. Duration : 40.38 Mins.
MT Continuum: A toolkit in your pocket. That's what the revolutionary original Leatherman Pocket Survival Tool (PST) by Tim Leatherman promised its users. In many ways it delivered just that. It was small, lightweight, and fairly capable. Today's MTs are even better and have improved on the innovative and original Leatherman concept. It is a good feeling being able to save the day with a multi-tool that you've brought along and an MT in your system gives you piece of mind. Cutting, driving, filing, opening, driliing, reaming, prying, grabbing and many other capabilities are yours if you have your MT with you. Current designs, like my reference medium-duty Leatherman Charge series, can replace the EDC blade with their quickly accessed and well-designed blade options as well. And yet, amazingly, few people carry the MT with high percentage. That's a shame because an MT can also offer key capabilities in emergency situations as well. But of course and as discussed here, the multi-tool or MT is still a compromise for the better capabilities of a full sized, purpose-built hand tools. Successive generations in the MT arms race have come closer to approximating the functionalities of these full size tools, all while maintaining the ever-important compact size, elegant design, and light weight that makes the MT useful and portable. Also Style should be a part of the functional design and but never its own pursuit if the MT is to remain true to its mission of functionality ...
