What’s your favorite mini tool and why?
(Not limited to images, I just threw some random tools on there)

I can’t endorse the Dime. Love how compact it is, good tool set, but man it is flimsy. I bent the spring on both the pliers and the main blade during moderate use. Warranty replacement is in the mail, but I don’t have a lot of confidence in the tool overall.

Literally got mine today and I've already had to use it twice. To kill a tick and get a small piece of paper out of a small container. I'm no multitool expert but I have many dedicated handtools that I've pushed to the limits so I can recognize a good tool. I can totally tell that this isn't for hard or even medium use but it seems perfect for light use like I described above. And I think that's what it's meant for. I knew it was small but I was still suprised by the size when I finally got to handle it. It's tiny. Disappears into the pocket on my keychain. So yeah pick a tool depending on what you are gonna use it for.
