At first glance I’m not quite sure what to make of these supposed “multi-tools”. Despite having edges designed for prying and a non-adjustable wrench on the Barbar, neither of them have any dedicated screwdrivers, pliers or even a blade. So they don’t appear to be particularly useful as actual tools.
But at the same time, they’re friggin’ beautiful! It’s as if someone gave Picasso a CNC machine, a chunk of titanium and told him to make a keychain. Plus, there’s a bottle opener, and let’s be honest, that’s the only tool you really need. Come to think of it, I know exactly what to make of them… I want them both and I want them now! $US75 each.

I may be missing some kind of point here, I can see the obvious screw driver, I just can;t see an obvious point, other than, hey.. look at my expensive and pointless tool

Why it doesn’t come with any nice titanium bits is puzzling.

Monday, November 14, 2011 at 9:29 AMI have had one of these: http://www.swisstechtools.com/docs/literature/SWUtiliKey.pdf for 6 months or so now, it has come in handy a lot more times then I thought. Good enough to strip wires, screw into terminals, fix your sunglasses, “emergency” bottle opener etc.
