I have had one of these on my key chain for over 15 years; it’s only been replaced 3 times and I use it almost daily. It comes with a removable plastic toothpick and tweezers. I love having a toothpick handy after eating out somewhere and the tweezers work very well. The tweezers do not have the strongest grip because they are very thin and therefore a bit flexible, but I have never had them fail to work and they have very sharp edges for getting out the finest hair and/or splinter.
The knife and fingernail file/screwdriver are obviously useful in many instances; the only problem I’ve ever had is that if you are trying to remove/loosen a very tight screw it might close on you if you press too hard. The implements do not ‘lock’ into place, so you have to use some caution.
The scissors were originally my primary reason for purchasing these and are fine enough to help trim your cuticles and strong enough for smaller cuts. They are definitely not super strong but definitely cut paper and thin plastic easily.
Overall, these are a terrific gift for just about anyone and a great purchase for yourself. I’ve seen them in the store for upwards of $14 but you can frequently get these for less here at Amazon.
