ST53100 Stainless Steel 19-in-1 Key Chain Multi Tool, Polished Finish (Single Pack)

I am really impressed with this tool. It easily fits on any keychain without being heavy or very large. It is not much over an inch square yet manages to contain several sizes of both flat blade and phillips type screwdrivers from small to very small. Some are small enough to use on mini screws, they type use on eyeglasses for example. It would attach to a keychain through the hole made by they pliers/ hex wrench. It is not much bigger than most care remote unlock devices that are often found on keychains. To use the pliers/wrench/crimper you just need to flip the other items back which allows them to act as handles and have a way to use the wrench part. It is not heavy duty though can get many jobs done in a pinch and quite amazing the number of things this can do in such a small package. I am impressed that it contains all the items it does for the price. It is not heavy duty but neither is it poor quality where this unit is likely to get damaged during normal use. It also comes with a lifetime warranty and is priced under 9 bucks so I have been very satisfied with it but so far only need to use the screw drivers. One can get sturdier more expensive mutlitools but I have not seen one that can do more for being so timy and fit on a keychain. It says it comes it the following Two hex wrenches (1/4" and 7/16" both incorporated in to the same head of the wrench which can be used as light duty pliers as well. This also doubles as the pliers and under the jaws of the pliers are the wire crimpers. The six screw dirvers, 3 of each are all in useful sizes. The rulers are just marks engraved on the side of the tool and so short I am not sure what they can be used for in a practical sense but better to have them there than not. It also says in incorporates a hand drill. This is a very small thin drill bit that would make a very small hole. I am not sure how useful this would be or how sturdy but again it is better to have it than not. I expect one needs to be careful with that being so thin so it does not break. However I am sure it is capable of making a tiny hole in to various materials, though I would say softer than most metals. The file is not that great but it has one. In my opinion the most useful thing about this tool is that for it's small size you get a good variety of usable small screwdrivers and a working wrench and pliers. Those are the only items I see myself actually using but you never know. But those alone are pretty impressive for a tool that folds in to less than two inches square. So to even have somewhat useful pliers and wrenches fold out of such a small item is very unusual. Of course a large strong steel multi tool such as an SOG or Leatherman type is going to be able to handle much tougher duties and have more leverage to do them. But this is not a competitor for those. This is an inexpensive keychain item for well under 10 bucks. Viewed in that light it is quite impressive and I am sure will come in handy when I am not around my usual set of tools. If this is on your keychain it will be there whenever you need it to do all the tasks it is capable of. I am very impressed with what this does for it's size and price. I have recently been purchasing small items specifically to be compact and fit on a keychain to cover as many duties are I run in to and this has been an excellent addition to the set. I am very happy with it for the size and price.

So many tools to pick from as we explore those available here on Amazon and during regular forays to the brick-and-mortar stores, but how good are they? Bought this Swiss+Tech ST53100 Micro-Max 19-in-1 Key Ring Multi-Function Pocket Tool as an impulse item here when it showed up as a Lightning Deal, then wondered if it was truly worth it after I placed the order. When it arrived, I put it through its paces, fiddling with all of the 19 different tools, trying to see if it was any better than the clone version that was in the bin by the register at my local hardware store. ◆ Pros: + Nice stainless steel construction; well finished + Handy and compact; good to have as a backup when cycling + Very convenient; rational selection of tools + Attaches to a key ring; no holster needed ◆ Concerns: ± Will it loosen over time, falling off a key ring? ◆ What You Get: Going to list the tools available with this versatile 19-in-1 multi-function pocket tool, as all too often they seem to disappear from the product listings over time, along with some basic observations. ▪ 1/4 Inch Hex Wrench; useful ▪ 7/16 Inch Hex Wrench; also useful ▪ #0 Flat Screwdriver; use carefully ▪ #1 Flat Screwdriver; as above ▪ #2 Flat Screwdriver; works ▪ #0 Phillips Screwdriver; use carefully ▪ #1 Phillips Screwdriver; decent ▪ #2 Phillips Screwdriver; good for drywall screws ▪ Pliers; Surprisingly good for small tasks ▪ Wire Cutter; good for small-gauge wires ▪ Wire Stripper; works ▪ Wire Crimper; didn't try (keeping things honest) ▪ Nail File; it's good ▪ Hand Drill; small tasks only ▪ Bottle Opener; if you need it ▪ Inches Ruler; wear your glasses, if you need them ▪ Inches Ruler Extension; wear your glasses ▪ Millimeter Ruler; wear your glasses, as above ▪ Millimeter Ruler Extension; wear your glasses Multi-tools always represent a compromise of sorts, but if they have the right combination to perform or facilitate work, they can be very handy. My only question is whether this will loosen over time, causing it to fall off the small key ring to which it's attached. ◆ Bottom Line: The Swiss+Tech ST53100 Micro-Max 19-in-1 Key Ring Multi-Function Pocket Tool is a well-crafted product, and would be a good gift or even a stocking-stuffer for the right person, especially a gadget geek. Worthy of 4½ stars considering that it may fall off of a key ring with time, but it's an interesting product, and even somewhat of a conversation piece to those who see it for the first time. This turned out to be a better than expected impulse item. 7/26/2013

I bought this because it is a cheap, tiny, and light emergency tool for my work computer bag. The metal and joints are medium build quality, but to be fair you get what you pay for. The average guy could easily snap these if you tried to crunch something too hard with the pliers or cut too thick of wire with the [scissor-style, not angle-cutter] wire cutters. Pros: - does NOT have a knife blade - airplane safe!* - has a #1 Phillips, key for small technology - plier jaws meet up relatively well, should work for basic purposes (don't try to crimp/crush anything too big) - folds up very flat and clean, so it packs well Cons: - joints are flared pins, which could go bad over time and aren't repairable (but what did you want for $10?) - metal is a bit flimsy - this is no Leatherman/Gerbertool * Too many multitools these days have crappy completely impractical knife blades that feel like they were "tacked on" in the design phase. I can see where people could make the argument that "if you're going to carry the multitool, you don't want to have to bother with a separate blade." As a frequent user of blades and tools, and someone who carries a blade everywhere (default: Benchmade 720 combo-edge), I can tell you that argument is wrong for professionals probably 90% of the time. Yes, I've actually asked just about every person I've worked with who carries a multitool. Hence I'm genuinely happy that this tiny emergency/backup tool doesn't have a blade.

Works great. On my keychain

cool little gadget but the rivets get kind of lose quickly

I bought this keychain multitool as part of my EDC. It is attached to my keyring along with my Gerber Shard, Steamlight Nanolight, and keys. And I must say it is quite the useful little tool! It's helped me out on more than one occassion. The construction is quite solid, all metal, and has taken the abrasive abuse of being on a keyring quite well. It barely shows any scratches or scuff marks (and trust me, I'm not that gentle with my stuff). Since I already have a Shard, the plethora of drivers was a bit redundant but I'd rather have it since I've also used it on occasion with smaller sized screws that the Shard couldn't do. The movement is still tight and smooth after many many twists and use. The most useful aspect of it was the pliers and the bottle opener. The pliers was a bit small and can collapse on you while using it, but with a firm grip I had little difficulty using it. Overall, I'd say it's a great tool for you to own. Even my coworkers who've seen it have been impressed and wanted to get one for their spouse who is into tools. For the features it has and for the price, I'd say it's a great price point and I wouldn't pass it up.

These Swiss tools are using quality steel, are well engineered and fit into my PSK (personal survival kit) . Wire is always in these kits, and handling wire for repairs, snares, etc. is a test for pliers. These guys pass that test. So small yet they get the job done. You can’t go wrong. I ordered the wrong ones at first, and the returns were easy and seamless.

My son loves this. It’s safe for kids and he finds any excuse to pull it out and use it.

Cool pocket tool

Gute Sache

excellent produit , je recommande vivement , solide , petit , très utile au quotidien , le meilleur d entre tous

La herramienta es pequeña, ocupa la mitad de la palma de la mano, aun teniendo manos pequeñas. Puede usarse con el llavero una vez que se cierra. Las puntas de los desarmadores son sumamente prácticas y de suma utilidad. Pesa poco, ocupa poco espacio, no llama la atención, si bien la herramienta de corte es muy básica y con un filo algo romo, es de utilidad para sacar de un apuro mientras se va en bicicleta o los arreglos del dia a dia, desde un cajón, una puerta etc. El precio bastante acesible y fue adquirido en una oferta, asi que fue imperdible. Gran regalo para aquellos que gustan de tomar cartas en el asuntoy hacer sus propias reparaciones.

He de decir que soy un friki de estas mini-herramientas. Realmente es un llavero, pero la verdad es que a mi me sacan de más de un apuro. solo le saco el inconveniente que no tiene una argolla donde sujetarlo y es la propia boca del alicate la que hace esa función, por lo que tienes que abrirlo siempre todo para usar cualquier punta de los destornilladores que son los brazos. A favor que tiene tres puntas de estrella y planas en cada brazo que realmente son lo suficiente para desde unas gafas hasta un pomo de puerta. ME ENCANTA.
