Mini Multi-tool for those who want something to always have on them.
Bought this over a year ago and without fail this little guy has saved me countless times. It fits perfectly into the small pocket of my jeans (the small pocket being the one above the front pocket). I knew I didn't want one any bigger since I couldn't carry it in the front pockets since I have plenty of other stuff it would damage if I carried any more clutter in there, and I'm not a fan of belt holsters. So, this thing fit the bill perfectly and I couldn't be more happy with it.Not sure why the page measures it wrong now, but back when I bought it was accurately marketed to be small measuring 3"x1.2"x0.5". Its just as durable today as the day I got it. Every tool inside of it opens out firm without any looseness. I've cut many metal wires and the pliers/wire cutters are still working great cutting away. The knife attachment is the only thing showing wear as its dulled a bit (to be expected), but the saw bladed knife is still sharp and both can be resharpened/honed if needed. Honestly the only real wear outside of that is the logo paint on the side of the multitool has completely worn off which now leaves nothing but shiny metal which I like haha.Things to note is that since its so small it does hurt the hand if your using it a lot (especially the pliers) without a glove due to it digging into the palm of your hand. For me that's a worthy trade off for its portability.Due to its size this definitely isn't for someone who has to use a multitool for a profession. This is for someone who wants to have one on them everywhere they go just in case they may need it. Also not for those with big hands as it'll be to difficult to operate efficiently the larger they are.Also have to be careful not to pinch yourself when using the pliers as the top of the multitool will pinch together. Always have to warn someone using it for the first time to be careful of that as I've seen a friend broke skin from it (as well as learning it the hard way myself).Also for the price of 8 bucks this is a steal of a deal if you ask me. My only regret is that I wish I had bought more of them to just gift out. Unfortunately they don't sell these anymore at least as of this review, and the ones that are out there cost +$13 which is more then I'd pay for them.

Too big and too small...
The quality is decent, I'm not writing this to denote it.My reason for 3 stars? To me, it's too big for a keychain and too small for practical use. It kinda falls into that grey zone of getting put somewhere that you're never going to use it. My normal sized multi tool is my go to, so why would I grab this one? (I have several. One for my car, one for the house.)The idea behind this is to keep one in your pocket. But I just found it to be too big. I'm sure most other people disagree (the 4.7 star rating for example). I just would have wanted it to be 30% smaller give or take. But I do still like it and use it on occasion.

Solid product for an even more solid price
Excellent. It's hard to open, but that's exactly what I want because I keep it on my lanyard/keyring. I put my lanyard/keyrings in my butt pocket when I'm at work and it's small enough not to cause any discomfort while sitting down.It's sturdy, and does exactly what I wanted, which was having a multi-tool while on the job to be able to complete any smaller task thrown at me.

For the price, you really can't complain about this little guy at all.
Way smaller than I expected, but my 3 star rating does not reflect that as the dimensions are clearly stated in the description. But translating those dimensions did not compute in my mind's eye! Handle is formed from a nice heavy gauge stainless. Pliers will take quite a bit of force before flexing. Spring for the plier's return broke on the first squeeze, but I can live without that. DOES NOT HAVE A CAN OPENER!!! It has 2 bottle openers. One is indeed shaped more like can opener, but is not sharpened as one should be. It will not cut a can. Since it was so cheap, I am going to sharpen it and give it a try then.For the price, you really can't complain about this little guy at all. It will serve well as a secondary back-up in my BOB. While it has some faults, at this price point I don't feel taken or ripped off. Holding it my hand right now, it was worth the asking price. It will indeed see some use, but I will buy a bigger/better one.**UPDATE** I did sharpen what appears to be a can opener. While it is capable of piercing a can now, the hook that grabs the underside of the can lip will not stay in place as you pry up on it. So - if it was ever intended to be a can opener, it is a huge failure. I still think the overall tool is worth the price however....**UPDATE** Don't bother. The pins holding the tool have become loose, and it falls open. Bit of a pain when you are trying to return it to the case. Also, it has become clear the stainless steel is a very low grade stainless, as finger prints are beginning to rust it. Yes, low grade stainless does indeed rust. And yes, fingerprints rust as well, as perspiration is corrosive. And yes, I am a big fat sweaty guy. What is with all the questions? Sheesh.... Anyhoo - 3 stars to 2 stars. The only reason it isn't 1 star, is it still has some value in a survival situation, but it has been removed from the BOB and tossed in the glove box. Oh.... BTW.... All this wear and tear comes from collectively, quite literally, less than 2 hours of use over the course of just under 2 months. So, in conclusion, it was cheap. Surprisingly, I still don't feel ripped because it was so cheap. BUT - I would STRONGLY recommend you look elsewhere. I, for one, am not screwing around anymore and will be buying one of the many Leathermans available. Certainly not cheap, certainly won't rust and fall apart after mere hours of use. More often than not, quality comes with cost, but cheap is always appealing - look away!
