I have been a passionate fan of multi -tool and pocket tools for decades. I owned a few items in large names like Leatherman, Gerber and Victorinox. Some still have, and others are given or lost. I even broke some things, but in that case I was able to be replaced by the warranty.

These are often more than $ 100 premium tools, and some costs are much higher. For that price, you can get a strong and long -lasting tool. But not everyone wants or needs a multi -tool of $ 100 or more. Many people are simply looking for something cheap and reliable. It doesn’t hurt your mind if you end your work, but if you lose your mind, get stolen or damaged.

Also: I can carry 10 small gadgets with me everywhere -you may want.

The problem is that cheap and good things are rarely going together. I had a hard time finding a decent multi -tool in a category of less than $ 100.

until now.

In the last few weeks Nextool E1 Pocket Tools. This multi -tool combines 10 functions with small and pocket -friendly packages.

All of this is suitable for a tool that is only 3.1 x 1.0 x 0.7 inches and weighs less than 3.5 ounces.

The components of this tool are made of heat treatment 30CR13 stainless steel, known for its durability and toughness, and the scale is composed of rough polymers, making the multi -tool light and solid.

The driver is a noticeable feature. If you like it, you can buy A 10 -bit expansion pack. This bit is also compatible with the bit holder of the leather man, so it can be convenient with the multi -tool.

The scissors of Nextool E1 are awesome!

I tested all the tools and is so sharp that I can effectively handle the work while maintaining clarity after extended use. Knife and mini scraper have thumb studs on the blades so that they can be easily opened and other tools use nail nicks. Some tools can be a bit stiff at first. This is because the joints should be loose in part and there is a point in part. However, if you use it for a few days, it becomes a second characteristic.

In particular, utility knives require some practice for heat, but this is actually a good thing because it prevents accidental opening in your pocket.

The utility knife with the X-ACTO blade is a nice touch.

I like this pocket tool because it’s small enough to be noticeable in my pocket, but it’s great enough to complete the work. There is no pliers’ set or keying clip. If you want them, you need to see the larger product of Nextool.

Also: a winter emergency kit ahead of the winter weather

This tool contains two blades, so you can’t take it to the flight and you can end with TSA bean if you try to import it through airport security.

Blade is not made of room baggage for commercial airliner.

Zdnet’s purchase advice

that Nextool E1 It is a great pocket tool and is quite traded at a price of $ 27. This is made of a fairly unique category. It is a very cheap tool. If you do not have a long guarantee that you can see with people like Leather Man, but only $ 30, you will not break the bank if you break it or lose it.
