This little multitool is a perfect fit for office use, with a selection of tools fit for low-intensity, white collar work and a fantastic feel in the hand.
The main tool is a well formed pair of scissors, amongst the best I’ve used on a multitool. The knife is very small, which helps reinforce that it is a tool, not a weapon. That likely will make it much more acceptable in some non-permissive environments, and it’s still big enough to work well in opening packages or performing basic cutting tasks.
The small screwdrivers are functional, with the larger one including a bottle opener. And while a traditional Phillips is not included (edit: one of the screwdrivers is actually a 2D Phillips), the flatheads will likely work just fine for the smaller screws they are probably going to be used on, even if those screws are Phillips. Additionally, keeping them as flatheads makes the profile of the tool much thinner.
The nail tool is also very nice, with the file holding perfect grit level and the opposite side providing a two inch ruler.
The only thing slightly odd about the tool, to me, is the location of the tweezers. Rather than being pulled out of the scales like most tools, a plastic sleeve holds them in the same panel as the smaller screwdriver. While odd, this helps keep the scales very thin, again keeping the size and handiness of the tool as a focus.
Overall, a very nice little tool for your work desk, as long as you work with papers and computers more than pistons and crankshafts. I highly recommend it.
