I was browsing eBay when I spotted an old model that I was searching for some time. The Swiss+Tech Micro-Pro 9 in 1 is another of those piggy back style little key chain tools. Instead of an LED light, you get a USB flash drive.
Now the package states 2005, which explains why the USB flash drive is only 256 Mb in size.
Either way, this is a neat little tool combo that appears to be discontinued going by the lack of information on Swiss+Tech's web site.
You cannot tell with the following photograph, but there is a bright red Swiss cross which lights up when the USB flash drive is accessed.
On the reverse side, you can see the Micro-Pro wrapped around the docking post. You can remove the tool, or the USB drive and still leave the docking station attached to a belt or some other anchor point.
The metal tool offers:
- Pliers.
- Wire cutter.
- Wire stripper.
- sheet shears
- 1/4" Ruler (Handle ribs).
- #2 Phillips driver.
- #2 Flat driver.
I counted trice, and that only comes to 7 functions. Not sure how they get to 9. Even if you include the USB drive, that is only 8 functions. I am sure they are advertizing 9 functions total on the metal tool excluding the USB drive.
Overall, not a bad item to have. The USB flash drive is small by today's standards, but the stainless steel tool is timeless, and useful enough to have a place on the keychain.
