Favorite pocket / keychain tool
« on: October 16, 2018, 11:56:38 pm »
Maybe this has been covered here before but I wanted to share my favorite compact/keychain tool - I never the leave the house without it.

Swiss+Tech Screwz-All-4-In-1 keychain tool. It saved me numerous times on the road, at work and at home and I thought it might be worth mentioning here. I love the construction, small size, and it has a cool release function when you pinch on the hoop that it’s attached to. The Phillips on this is not quite JIS but closer to a #2 and has gotten me out of jambs many times.

What’s the compact tool that’s on your keychain or that you never leave home without?

Anybody know of a keychain tool that has a lightweight and low-profile 10mm socket wrench, or a cool way of adapting one?

Personally, I don't like stuff cluttering up my key chains; it only tends to scratch the paint or make a horrific rattle while riding/driving.

If you Google, "Everyday Carry Wrenches" you'll find many creative and handy tool solutions.

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of it's victim may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated, but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." - C.S. Lewis

Likewise, I don’t like carrying many keys either and keep my bike keys apart from the others. I wear the tools and other keys on a carabiner through one of my belt hoops.
