    TSA multitool Guidelines. Its true that a TSA agent is basically only accountable to themselves (and don't always follow their own rules). But this is 100% legal according to their website.

    Very cool you were able to work with the manufacturer on it! I think that qualifies you as a for-reals "influencer", not just a TH-camr pretending to have influence. 🙂 I don't have a need for this tool myself right now, but I am very tempted to get one anyway just to support the bladeless market and encourage more companies to make bladeless tools of various configurations.

    Companies need to make more multitools without the blade. Im sure theres plenty of people like me with a dedicated knife they carry already. To be able to travel and still take a mulitool on plane is big thing. Edc carry is even more important when you are in a unfamiliar place imo. Thank you for this video! Been watching you for years and im glad you are staying real instead of pushing useless over priced pocket jewelry (everyday minimalist)

    For the original, I had an idea, the base of the combo tool should be a nail file, ditch the bottle opener, and keep the can opener at the top cuz you never know when you might need it, but a bottle there's tons of ways you can open!
    Or the whole thing should be nail file, and it would be perfect, I can't tell you how many victorinox models I ditched because non had a nail file, 2-3-4 layer models having everything but a simple nail file!

      I've been obsessed with multi tools since I was a kid when I saw someone show off a multi tool and amazed me when they showed scissors in that tool, since then I've been hunting for something similar, but I couldn't find anything like it until Victorinox started appearing in local shops and got my first Classic SD and I was finally satisfied!
      If Nextool starts implementing all the basic tools that made my first Vic purchase so special, a nail file along what it already has, maybe even custom tools because it's so easy to mod, that would be beyond factastic!
      It could even beat that new modular multi tool for me, because I prefer small tools like the Mini Sailor!

    It came today, I really like it! I compared to the Dime and the implements are so much easier to get out. I’m just going to mod the plier head slightly for more precision, mod the flat head to work with the Leatherman bit, and glue emery board (which peels right off the backing usually) on the outside for a nail file. I think the scissors are excellent as is. I may try to add an edge to the flat driver for a package opener as the dime has a package opener which would be nice to have at least something sharp to assist in opening things. The wire cutter blows the dime out of the water also. Can’t wait for the potential next iterations. 🎉

    I have been using Sailor mini on my keychain for at least 1 year. The only thing I feel is missing is the lack of a file. It is needed from time to time. I also don't usually carry a knife unless I go out into the field. I already have it in my car or at home. The small knife on it is very useful for tasks such as opening boxes. Maybe the flat screwdriver could also be used as a box opener, and the sides of the Phillips screwdriver could be filed in a different pattern.

    Ordered one instantly! I've always got a Style PS on my keys because of the exact situations you've described. I carry a separate pocket knife, and it's nice to have my multitool wherever I go and not worry about it, especially because I work at a school. The Styles are a little dinky and would always break on me. I used to just replace them because of the Leatherman teacher discount, but once I heard that they were going to be discontinued, I had all of my broken ones repaired. Now I have a nice little stockpile but needed a replacement for when they all eventually break.
    The extra tools on this one are such a useful bonus! The only things I'm missing are the tweezers and the carabiner that allowed for easy removal from my keys. I also hope they do a knifeless mini flagship next. I would also welcome more colors.

  • @kingpin11111

    Great news! For years I have wished more bladeless multitools to appear on the market. And it is not because I don't like knives, quite the opposite.
    This allows you to pair your utility tool with a true knife like Spyderco without having the redundant blade on your multitool that you do not need.
    Having a knife separate from your utility tool gives you several benefits. First of all, you can use a knife against an object that you hold with your pliers. Secondly, you can easily "remove" the knife funcionality from your edc for a day just by leaving your knife at home, being able to travel by airplane, visit a court etc.
    I wish that Victorinox would start to make more bladeless models as well. It would give you so much more freedom in setting up the perfect edc with a dedicated knife.

    Just a tip to help people out, I always carry it in my pocket through security and I take it out and open every tool to show the tsa agent prior to it going through the x-ray and I’ve never had a problem. In fact, most of the time they thank me for doing that because it saves them time and having to open it ha

    I like it a lot! A version I'd prefer, however, would be more expensive because I'd like it to have a nail file and a flashlight. The flashlight is less important than the file because I can just add a tiny flashlight to the keyring. But it really needs a fingernail file. And one that works, not one like Gerber put on their Dime. As for my dream version, it would add a retractable pen. Sort of like a blending of Victorinox's Midnite Manager and NexTool's Mini Sailor. But I know that would get much more expensive and complicated. All that said, I've added this item to my Amazon wishlist and will be getting it soon! Thanks for helping NexTool bring us something I believe there's demand for.

    NexTool for the win! Note also: the adapter in their bit kit (I got mine with the Light Wrench W2 and Black Wrench) fits onto the Victorinox in line Phillips! There's a little play side to side but not much. And no play while turning. What's more, that NexTool adapter fits regular 1/4" bits as well as the Steinwhale small double sided bits perfectly! Wiha double sided and Leatherman also seat, but I haven't tested how they work IRL. There is a little play with the Leathermans. The hex end 711L ratchet works perfectly of course, and the Leatherman end 711L ratchet seats too but with a little play. Bottom line, the Nextool bit adapter + Steinwhale bit kit and extender are MUST haves for those who carry Victorinox's with the in line Phillips (found on magnifying glass and flashlight models). The hex end 711L ratchet would be very nice to have as well.

    I really like it, but wish we could have a bladeless version of the one with larger scissors. And if we want to make it really perfect… add locks to the drivers. If it needs to be heavier, a slightly longer tool is fine (spreading the weight over a larger area avoids making it feel like a little stone in the pocket, while also improving the grip). At this size it’s already too big for most keychains, so I don’t see a problem with making it a bit larger .

    Again interesting. Until viewing this today I was unaware that other key chain versions of multi-tool besides the one I talk about here even existed.
    A little over 2 decades ago (2001-2012 time frame) when I worked as a Federal contractor a vendor that hoped to do business with us gave our team about 40 or 50 miniature key chain Leatherman clone tools. Although laughably useless for most serious work tasks they were still appreciated for those of us who had to work in or visit secure Federal facilities or courthouses. The overall length is 2.5". The weight is 53 Grams. Yes, I still have mine. There is a knife blade, best described as a pen knife blade, but with a blade length of only 2.48" the prohibition of 18 USC, section 930 did not apply. With the tool we could open taped boxes, pull lose (or place) difficult to reach USB cords, reshape USB phone jacks if they had been crushed (stepped on mostly, but occasionally the rollers on an office chair got them), or even use the tiny Phillips screwdriver blade on the tiny screws on the back of many hand held electric devices when swapping batteries, etc.. Yes it has a bottle opener blade the tip of which can probably P38 a can open (never tired that function as I have real can openers). It was bot unusual for white collar workers in those places to ask to borrow ours when they saw us using it. Since we had gotten ours for free a few of us had put 2 or 3 in our briefcase and would say, 'keep it' when they finished their task with it. Within a month or two the supply of spares had dried up and we became more stingy with them, LoL. There is a (very) tiny scissor. The file is nail file shaped with a cuticle cleaning tip. However, it is hard enough to remove a sharp edge on a bent PC cabinet as well as filing down a hang nail. There is no brand name stamped on it. The only marking is an import stamp of CHINA on the inside. Mine is stainless like the original PST but if I could pick a color I would opt out for either Hunter Orange or Blaze Green. Something I could quickly spot under a desk if it fell.

Let's see how long will take for Victorinox 😁 I'm sure for them should be very easy and quick to develop and put in production. It takes a lot of time to get these tools in the UK and Europe. I'm sure they'll be popular here. Have you ask Nextool for your other idea, for a dedicated outdoor tool? Roxon seems to be a great option and ergonomics apparently. It's getting too long now😁 Cheers now.
