Looks as useful as the phone case gizmos.

Honestly do not understand the excitement about this. Phones and cases are big enough, get a SAK instead! Different strokes, I suppose.

That phone case is horrible. I mean it takes up way more space than a SAK would and will be obsolete once you change phone. I mean the individual tools are not badly designed but why put it in a phone case. Their Key-holder is the better solution.

That key is horrible too... won't fit any door in Switzerland and it already looks weak and cheap in the photo.

Yeah, I think the phone thing is a joke. Besides which, my standard leather phone case has wallet type pockets, so I could put a swisscard or similar in there if I wanted. Or just put a proper pocket tool in my pocket  :shrug:

This key concept is actually a nice idea, in as much as it utilises a piece of metal you'd be carrying anyway. Now it's not the right type of key to fit the lock on my door, and neither does it offer me a function I want, but as a concept I like it more than the phone thing.
