Victorinox Swiss Army Swisscard Lite Pocket Tool, Sapphire

As an electronics tech, I always travel around town with a multi-tool cause someone is always wanting me to look at something. Of course, lugging all the little things gets a bit heavy. Since I am starting to walk to the place I have tea twice a day, I am downsizing. Instead of a netbook, I will be carrying the newest Kindle, which will allow me to read, and do internet browsing for parts, etc. The Kindle case is small, but has a zipper pocket, where I can carry my ID, cash, credit cards, and this credit card multi-tool.With the Swiss Army Cyberlite 34 multi-tool, I can build and tear down a computer. Best multi-tool I have ever owned. Now that I am downsizing, I needed something with small precision phillips, as well as standard phillips. This was the only credit card multi-tool that had micro phillips, phillips, and flatblade. Other features which help is the 3X magnifier for reading ultra small print on circuit boards, a light to be able to add just enough light to see into those small dark areas of a computer, and a pen to write down the information. The scissors are great for cutting paper, and are strong enough to cut some thicker stuff, but would refrain from cutting plastic cable ties as it probably wouldn't last long. The knife is nice, though it needs sharpening if you ready need to cut something other than an opening envelope. The tweezers are like all other Swiss Army tweezers. Personally I think they should add a 1/64 inch 90 degree bend on one edge. I think that would help in picking up things and pulling splinters from the finger. The ruler is in metric, and a nice straight edge. Hard to see inside, though easy to read outside. The final item is a straight pin. At first, i could see no real reason for it. Then I remember all the time I need to open a cut that had a splinter inside, and was a bit infected. Perfect touch.This credit card size multi-tool will never replace my Cyberlite, but for on-the-fly stuff, I cannot image a better set of all around tools in such a small package.The only design change I would recommend is to be able to have the light project out of the bottom of the 3X magnifier, though i can see the possibility of damage to the light bulb in the long run.

It is the size of a credit card but packed with good tools. I have used all the tools in one day. Magnifying glass and tweezers to remove a splinter, scissors to cut a small cord, knife to open a letter, the pen to write down ideas in my notebook and the flashlight to find the car keys under the seat at night.The blade is not meant for survival, so it is not as tough, but it certainly is razor sharp for small tasks.

This is a good item to have if you want something more compact than their swiss army knives. It contains multiple tools:TweezersScrewdriver multitoolBallpoint PenMetal pinLed light with replaceable batteryMagnifying glassRuler on side in inches and centimetersLetter opener/knifeScissorsOverall a good buy. Not TSA friendly due to the blade. You will want the nailcare version which substitutes the knife for a nail file which is TSA friendly.

I bought one for son and one for myself. Although I carry a multi tool this is more compact for when I just carry a clutch bag. My son would always ask to borrow my multi tool for the knife and scissors. This slips into is wallet doesn't add bulk. He loves it. You can't beat Victorinox products for innovation and quality. I highly recommend this multi tool.

I've carried this for several months in my wallet and it manages to provide good utility. About the thickness of two credit cards. Has much of the functionality of a Swiss Army Knife without large blade, though the blade is larger than on the Classic SD. The blade is also removable so this can be taken on commercial flights. Remember to magnetize the pin and you will have a viable makeshift compass. LED is about 3mm but functional and does not accidentally turn on. Pen is pressurized to write at any angle. Magnifier is good showing very little distortion at the edges. As expected, very good craftsmanship.
