Mini Swiss army knife. I don't know how to live life without this on my keychain
Swiss Army Classic for those shopping. eBay has tons, take you time, hundreds of cool designs.
Cool trick: search "TSA lot" and you can get knives by the pound. I got 50 one time, fixed, polished, sharpen, etc., gave them away for Christmas at the office.
SD mini is 20 usd I think brand new as well. It is so small you don't even notice it on your keys. Everyone should have one. I buy them as gifts for people when I don't know what to get and the amount of thanks I get down the line is wild
This probably sounds autistic but I have super long hair and I've managed to grow it longer than ever before because when I see an obvious split end I just hit it with the mini scissors
I've got a Gerber Dime pliers-based mini multitool on my keychain instead.
I've had 2 Gerber Dimes they seem nice in theory but you can't use the pliers for pretty much anything without them breaking.
Gonna get a Victorinox as my next tool
That is a pretty good point -- I haven't broken the pliers, but haven't found them to be all that useful, either. My most-used tool by far is the "package opener."
3 times the weight though
