The leather wallet is homemade, while I bought the Hide & Drink pocket organizer.

It’s a new addition, so it’s hard to say. My previous SAK was a Champ, and I used the metal file and scissors the most, but I always wanted a bit driver for the electronic maintenance that I do.
Just how often do you need to use that big victorinox?
I carry the cybertool L on a daily basis for 2 years now. I love this thing and couldn’t imagine leaving the house without it. Even at home I often carry it in my pocket as it comes in handy that often around the house. I use the knife, pliers, scissors and bit driver the most, but I even had many usecases for the file and saw in the last years. Once I was spontaneously helping my mother changing here offices floor (click vinyl). The saw and file were live savers as my mother didn’t have the right tools around and made it possible to work faster and more precise than I could have ever imagined. The bit driver is perfect for every task I used it for (only downside is that it’s not placed in the middle, that makes it a bit unhandy sometimes. But it gets the job done). To sum up, this SAK feels like having a whole toolbox with you all the time, making it feel like being prepared for everything everytime!
Nice, what do you think of the EDCPocketTools Mini CatClaw?
Well I’m a little biased because I’m the creator of it and it’s still in development, but overall I like it. I am going to raise the handle length from 75mm to 100mm because I feel like I need that extra boost in leverage for any substantial prying task that requires a lot of force.
I’ve been using the swiss champ forever, just using the eyeglass screwdriver (on the corkscrew) for electronics. Didn’t know they made one with dedicated screwdrivers for that.
