I got that Ontario Rat 1...love it...that AUS8 steel is a dream to sharpen. It is also pictured.
The other mini multi is the Gerber Armbar Drive (she has a sister, the Armbar Cork for those of you that drink more wine than work )
I bought it after I lost the extension driver for my Wave. The driver alone was $20 and the Armbar Drive was $31...so I ordered it instead.
The good:
It is small, small enough to fit in a watch pocket.
The bit driver takes standard bits.
The wharncliffe blade is nice.
The striker/bottle cap opener/prybar is handy.
The Bad:
7cr17moV.
The scissors are subpar compared to the Wave.
The awl is not long enough.
The driver doesn't lock...nor do any of the other tools...only the blade has a liner lock.
Would I buy it again?
Probably. Sometimes I need a screwdriver AND pliers at the same time. I'll likely replace the scissors with something else.
For it's size it is a cool little tool...but I'd wait for it to go on sale.
