Top of the Multi-Tools shelf
Multi-Tools holds folding pliers-based tools, keychain and pocket multi-tools, and bit-driver tools. Anything whose purpose is carrying several implements in one body sits here, whether or not it includes a knife blade.
Full-size plier-based tools, compact and keychain tools, and driver-focused tools with bit sets. Configurations vary a great deal, so the implement list on the individual product page is the thing to read.
Some carry knife blades and some do not, which matters if you fly. See is a multi-tool TSA-friendly.
Decide what you actually reach for. A tool with twenty implements you never use is heavier and more awkward than one with the six you do. Pliers quality and how easily the tool opens one-handed matter more day to day than implement count.
See can a multi-tool replace a toolbox for an honest scope check.
As of this build the category holds 71 live products, which is 5% of everything we list, across 3 brands (Böker Plus, CIVIVI, Gerber), priced from $7.95 to $179.95. The most expensive pieces in it today are Gerber DET Tool, Gerber Center Drive Plus Bits Leather, Gerber Center Drive Rescue Berry.
These numbers are recounted every time the site is rebuilt, so they track the live catalog rather than a figure typed in once.
