Cool little 4-in-1 pocket tool
Now, there are a jillion combination pocket/keychain tools on the market. I've owned, carried, and used a bunch of them, and I generally find that only the test of time effectively sorts wheat from chaff. I've never owned, carried, or used this so-called "screwpop" tool, so I have no way of knowing how it stands up to pocket wear. I'd be a bit nervous that the reversible hex bit would get lost somewhere along the way, although it looks like their bit features a ball detent to hold it in place. Also, for those of you are counting, the "fourth" tool--besides the bottle opener and the flat and phillips screwdrivers--is a 1/4" hex nut driver, which is a bit of a cheap marketing gimmick because what they're really talking about, of course, is the socket that holds the hex bit.
But I like the no-frills design and the price is certainly right at $5. If I see one on a counter by a cashwrap at a hardware store someday, I'll probably pick it up. [Thanks, Kurt!]
