let's talk EDC multi-tools


Oct 15, 2021, 10:59 AM

I got me a little Gerber Dime to carry around, so far I love it. Have a full-size Leatherman Skeletool, which is awesome, but just a little bit too bulky/heavy to tote around all the time, so I decided to try something smaller. Skeletool has been relegated to the Jeep console.

Dime is a tiny little thing, keychain size. Fits in the little jeans front change pocket. Not much bigger than one of those mini-Swiss Army knives.

(no, that's not my hand)

Features:


I especially love the package opener, it's a genius little tool. Tears right thru those annoying hard plastic bubble packages, safer than a knife blade. Pliers come in handy too.

Wondering what else is out there you fellers might carry.

knife if I know I'm going to need a screwdriver or pliers. Definitely more bulky though, and the bits are kind of aggravating to get in and out of the holder. I need to get the allen key set for it.

Grady's probably has the largest selection of multitools in stock I've every seen FYI.

still going skrong....when I need/use it, which isn't often. Heavy AF for what it be




I was pretty close to picking up one of those Dimes for smaller camping tasks, but then remembered that I had a small Leatherman Style PS EDC on my keychain that I could use (that I also never use)

and now I'm watching this:
