Sometimes I will use something and realize I’ve owned it forever. It’s a nice change in our throwaway reality. I think my personal record is a bicycle multi-tool I got for one of my first bikes, ~25 years ago. Still have it, still use it. When it comes to electronic devices I have a Panasonic mini Hi-Fi from ~2005. Never felt like changing it.
What’s your record?
Screwdriver and corkscrew always get me. But I am leaning towards corkscrew for untying knots, that is way too common a problem, and nothing does it like it. Isn’t the Philips #1 size too large for electronics? And that only the inline is actually worth it, since backside is very flimsy? Or would you just carry a separate screwdriver or a Rambler? Do not mind my questions too much.
Just got home from my trip - here’s a pic of the driver bits next to the knife. As you can see, the smallest Phillips is pretty small - I’ve worked on some small devices with that one.
This knife is part of my everyday carry for work and general use. When working around the house, and out camping, I also carry a Leatherman Surge.
Your EDC tastes are too well refined. Also thanks, because of you, for the first time I see that bits are dual sided, as they should be.
