Gerber Gear Mullet Keychain - Multi-Tool Keychain with Pry Bar, Bottle Opener, and Wire Stripper - EDC Gear and Equipment - Black

The Gerber Gear Shard 7-in-1 is a compact, versatile tool that delivers excellent functionality in a small, portable design. With seven essential tools, including a bottle opener, pry bar, flathead screwdriver, and more, it’s perfect for everyday carry or outdoor adventures. The build quality is solid, and it’s incredibly durable, making it ideal for a variety of tasks. Its sleek, minimalistic design fits comfortably on a keychain, making it easy to have on hand when needed. A must-have for anyone looking for a reliable multi-tool that won’t take up much space!

Overall: This keychain tool is pretty useful. Its got a lot of function, but the bottle opener will likely get the most use. The material feels really sturdy. This tool is as slim as a standard key, but sticks out a bit with a little curve on the end for the flathead screwdriver. For less than $10 bucks, this is an awesome addition to my keychain. This IS NOT a Leatherman. Its NOT a swiss army knife. Don't expect it to be able to fit every screw in your house or use it to pry open a bank vault. It is what its advertised to be, all the functions work well (haven't tried wire stripper). Be realistic on what you will get out of this. I see a lot of reviews where people complain that it didn't fit some screw etc. If you are doing home repairs, use a real screwdriver set. If you want to have something on your keys to open beers, tighten an occasional screw or pry off a lid, this little guy will be your friendDetailed ReviewBottle opener: very stable, so much better than those free ones the you get from beer companies. No problems opening any bottles, even the annoying hard to open Modelo bottles. I don't foresee this opener breaking like all the little cheapies do. Its also slimmer than those little bottle openers, which is nice when you don't want a thick wad in your pocket.Screwdrivers: Phillips head is the best one, its got a little length to it, so lets you work with the deeper screws nicely. The two flathead screwdrivers are decent, and I was able to turn a nice amount of screws with them. However, neither set will work with every screw you have. Think about your screwdriver set, you have about 6 sizes for each shape.Pry Bar: pretty strong for how small it is. It'll do jobs bigger than you expect, like opening a can of paint with no problem. A little awkward to use at first because you may be worried it'll snap, but it surprised me.Wire Stripper: Look okay, I haven't tried it, I can't imagine that it'll blow me away, and it looks like you would need to be very patient to use this feature.Keychain hole: I thought it looked huge at first, but I will say that its pretty great. The size allows it to more freely on any keychain.EXTRA USE: Its not listen, but with the two flat head screwdrivers being being on a curved end of the tool and being a little sharp, you can use it as a tiny fork. I would never try to eat a full meal with it, but if you are in a bind, it will definitely do the trick. Got a hot piece of meat on the grill that you don't want to burn yourself on and your grill tools aren't next to you? Yes you can. Warning: How clean is it in your pocket?

This gadget is just COOL. It is so many little useful tools in one compact, well designed, and durable package. It's ideal on a keychain, or just keep it in your car or office drawer or wherever. The price is AMAZING -- making it even more irresistible.

There's a lot that's good about the Gerber Shard, and it starts with its basic simplicity.And keeping it simple, here's my subjective take on this basic OPMT (one piece multi-tool)...Likes:+ Compact, functional size; only 2¾ inches long, solid yet not bulky+ Large lanyard hole; fits key rings, carabiners, or #2 S-Biner+ Excellent small prybar; nail puller has a good v-notch that works with light tasks+ Basic Phillips screwdriver; decent with light tasks up to #2 drywall screws+ Two flathead screwdriver heads; OK with simple, light tasks+ Solid stainless-steel; has decent black titanium nitride coating+ Bottle opener that works; enough said about thatSo why did I get this thing? I'm a computer geek doubling as a part-time photographer, perhaps a bit more than the average enthusiast, yet not wanting to go pro. There are many times when working with information technology clients or in field photography that experience teaches one to be prepared. I like my SE MT908 11 Function Credit Card Size Survival Pocket Tool, but often it's in the computer bag, and that's where this Gerber Shard comes in handy as a good OPMT. An Atwood Pocket Prytool might be nice, but for the price, I'll stick with this.The basic Phillips screwdriver end on this tool is very similar to the one on the Gerber Suspension Multi-Plier that I've had for years, so I'm comfortable how it functions. The nail puller doubles as a reasonable wire stripper for anything but very fine gauges. The jimping, the little notches on both sides, add to better thumb control while in use.The Gerber Shard isn't perfect. The Phillips screwdriver end can give you a good jab in the leg if it's in your pocket, yet that's cured with a little juggling on the key ring if that's how you carry it. The black coating does wear a bit as it rubs against keys, but that was to be expected. Beside these little annoyances, it's a good and handy tool at an excellent price.10/2/2012
