Seen the odd post on here detailing the virtues of the swiss army knife? got me thinking about how i would be lost without my Gerber Suspension multitool, always seems to be the most used tool in the box.

What couldn't you live without?

You keep a multitool in your tool box? Multitools for trail use. Proper tools are much better then multitools at home IMO.

I've been lost ever since a large Austrian robot stole my clothes, boots and motorcycle back in 1991.

I got a Leatherman (Fuse) a few years ago as a Christmas present and was a bit non-plussed by it initially.

But, I use it loads for all sorts of jobs, whether bike related or otherwise.
It's been used a fair bit and still feels in good condition with no play in it, and all the tools are holding up well, apart from the knife which needs sharpening (but I am not sure how best to go about it).

I picked up a screwdriver security bit set for about a fiver, donkey's years ago. Worth its weight in, well, steel and plastic, it is.
