Gerber 7-in-1 Airline-Safe Stainless Steel Shard Solid State Keychain Tool with Titanium Nitride Coating - Black (22-01769)

Always passes airport security, easy to carry and has come useful a few times.

Well made especially the phillips screw driver. I have used it many time undoing tough screws and has not shown any wear whatsoever. Good for prying things open and a constant companion when I am just chilling with my beers. Has earned the right to be part of my EDC.

I expected this to be handy, it's more useful than I thought it would be. I've only had it 4 days but I've already used it to work Philips head screws (including accessing a loose indicator bulb on my car while in the middle of nowhere), tighten a loose mic holder mid-gig, open a couple of beers and pry some short nails. I'm a musician and recording engineer, both jobs involve me hauling a lot of gear around, and working to tight time margins. Having this in my pocket has already saved me a couple of trips to my car for a proper screwdriver, and a couple of trips from the couch to the kitchen for a proper bottle opener (there's a Rugby World Cup on, dontcha know). I'm not a tradesman. I'm not drilling into walls, cutting sheet metal or sawing through 2x4s while on a gig. I just need small, capable tools that'll do the job well enough, without adding much weight or bulk to the pile of gear I'm already hauling around. Between this and the Leatherman Surge that lives in my cable bag (the Surge is too big and heavy to keep in a pocket), I've got pretty much all the hand tools I find myself needing while out and about. Obviously, neither are replacements for the full size hand tools they share functions with. However, the Shard is excellent to have on a key chain for those simple little jobs when you don't have your tool box at hand. When I'm doing something that requires real tools, I use real tools. I'd assumed the Philips driver would be pokey in the pocket, but I've not noticed this thing on my keychain at all (my keychain also has a car key, some house keys, a drum key and a small pill box containing ear plugs, all hanging off a locking carabiner for quick removal). I was deciding between this and the Leatherman Brewzer. I'm very pleased I went with the Gerber Shard, it costs less and seems to do more. It's smaller than it looks from the photos online, but it's well designed and fits surprisingly well in my XL hands. I'll probably buy a few more of these to give as presents. Pros: Useful Philips/flat head drivers (these are the winners for me so far) Useful mini pry bar Decent bottle opener (Better than the cheapo aluminium one it replaced) Solid build quality. I don't expect this to fail, ever (it'll take a lot of abuse before the steel is stripped off the Philips driver) Disappears onto your keychain until you need it Comfortable to use, plus the shape of the body lends a surprising amount of torque to the Philips driver Cons: £6+ is a lot for 5p worth of steel The flat-head drivers are too thick for glasses screws (not an issue for me, but it might be for you) Because of the pry bend, it doesn't sit well in pockets on its own

Bon produit, bien réalisé, assez fin et costaud, très light pas encombrant facile à mettre à son trousseau de clé, ça peut dépanner, je verrais à l'usage, la marque fait parti du groupe Fiskars ce qui est un gage de qualité.

Premessa: sono un appassionato di multitools e questo "one-piece keychain multitools" mancava alla mia personalissima collezione. Mi è sempre piaciuta l’idea di avere un attrezzo polivalente da attaccare alle chiavi di casa, per avere sempre a disposizione una “dotazione minima” sempre disponibile: per questo motivo ho comprato SQUIRT PS4 di Leatherman…Unico problema è che avendo una lama tagliente non mi sono mai azzardato a portarlo in aeroporto: ecco perché ho acquistato SHARD di Gerber. Per adesso ho avuto modo di provare l'apribottiglie e i vari cacciaviti, e posso dire che fanno il loro dovere abbastanza bene (non avevo dubbi, visto che non è necessario niente di tecnologicamente avanzato...). Non ho provato lo spalecavi e il piede di porco, ma dubito che ne abbia bisogno. Una curiosità: ad un collega si era rotta la chiave all'interno della serratura che chiudeva la cassettiera del nostro ufficio. Utilizzando questo minuscolo attrezzo, ho forzato il cassetto riuscendo ad aprirlo.... Lo consiglierei? Certamente sì, ma non aspettatevi miracoli alla MecGyver!! Il rapporto qualità/prezzo credo sia imbattibile!

buen producto

In kurzen Worten. Klein, Satbil, massiv, praktisch, unverwüstlich, enorm widerstandsfähig. Immer wieder nützlich. Daumen hoch. Ich bereu den Kauf nicht.
