Nextool EDC Keychain Multitool, 10 in 1 Mini Pocket Knife Multi Tool with Needlenose Pliers, Scissors, Mini Useful Cool Gadgets for Men, Father's Day Gifts from Daughter-Green

I have bought just about every keychain EDC out there. My favorite was The L Squirt. Overall good and the file was its best feature. But L doesn’t make it anymore. . The G Dime was very disappointing. The only good thing on it was the bottle opener. The file was a joke. And it was a standard passable unit. I tried the NextTool MiniSailor which was a little heavy and was also passable. And the SOG PowerPint. Again, all of these just passable with the Squirt my favorite but with the usual limitation. Screwdrivers varied and had their weaknesses. And the scissors were pretty weak on most. All too short.I was looking around and came across this NextTool Pro and I’m so happy I did! My needs are a good blade, scissors and file. The scissors on this tool are the best of all the keychain models and better than some of my full-size EDC tools. Although the L Wave has a good pair. The scissors on this model are just exceptional and the long handles and long scissors cut through card stock and zip ties with ease. Also a big plus is the screwdrivers, file and the blade are much longer than all the other models. Makes working with them a lot easier. And be careful cuz this blade is really sharp. This is by far the best keychain EDC out there. Yes, it’s a bit more bulky than any of the others mentioned, but it has so many exceptional features that I’ll keep in my 5th pocket on my jeans and shorts. I am so happy I kept looking around. This keychain EDC is the best of the bunch far surpassing the others mentioned. It’s worth every bit even though it is just a bit more bulky. But not enough for me to keep in my pocket, even my gym shorts everyday.

It has a solid build, bit heavy, but expected due to the solid materials used. Scissors work well and is definitely useful for cutting through thicker materials even my Swiss army and leatherman multitool scissors have hard time cutting through. However, really thin and delicate materials such as synthetically coated plastic bags were a bit more challenging to cut through, due to the thin material just wedging in between the scissor blades, rather than shearing through it. When you hold the flimsy material taught on both ends, the scissor cuts right through without an issue. I found the scissor more useful than not and is larger than the ones that come with even many full sized multitools. The plier is also well made and useful, though not nearly the size you'll get from a full size multitool. The knife blade is sharp and cuts well, as is the can and bottle opener. Haven't tried the file yet. The flat phillip's screwdriver works surprisingly well. I used it to tighten my loose door handle. Unfortunately, the coating was mildly marred after that short use at the tip of the screwdriver. Nothing to worry about in my opinion. It retained its factory shape after use and that's what matters. I used a star screwdriver to remove the knife blade, so I could take it with me on my flights. I fly twice a month, and through several trips at various airports, I had been stopped only once at the security checkpoint for further inspection. After opening every tool on it, and seeing no knife blade in it, they just gave me the ok to carry on my merry way. Overall, very satisfied with my purchase. It permanently lives in my AER sling bag I carry with me on every flight I set on. I just use the blade on my scissor to improvise if and when I really need something to cut with. Though not nearly as useful as an actual knife blade.

This product was overall very good. Here are some of the pros/consPros:-STRONG scissors-Sturdy tools-Good toolset for edc-Knife came very sharp out of the box-Great size for edc, but too big for being a “keychain”-Good value at ~$26Cons:-On my unit the pliers feel as though there is sand in the hinge, leak tons of grease (as the picture shows), and makes a weird clicking noise that sounds like twisting the eraser on a mechanical pencil.-Tools are locked in place by a thin metal tab that puts tension on a cam like shape. Some users have reported these tabs breaking- Pliers are quite thin, making them more of a heavy duty tweezerI will be sending their costumer service team a message about the pliers hinge, if they resolve the issue I will make sure to update this review and change it to 5 stars.Update: NexTool quickly responded to my email and offered me a full refund with return of the item or a partial refund. They were extremely helpful!

5/5 RatingThis Nextool key chain Multi-tool is everything I thought it would be. Super functional and compact. It's a 10 in 1 which means it can serve almost any immediate use you need. Comes with scissors, knife, nail file, pliers, needle nose pliers, wire cut / stripper, can opener, bottle opener, flat head screwdriver, philips screw driver. Whatever your immediate needs are this thing can handle it. I'm very impressed. the size is almost perfect. Can easily fit in your pocket and on your key chain. It will make your keychain look bulky though. I'm thinking I may have to carry in pocket as a standalone.ProsGreat funcionlityLooks like a piece of art10 in 1ConsComes across a little bulky when attached to keyring
