Recently I was very kindly given a Gerber Clutch (you know who you are ;D)....So If you fancy having a set of quality small plier's in a package not much bigger than a 58mm classic or leatherman micra, that you can sling on your keys or in your pocket or work bag and forget about till you need it, I'd say go for a clutch, you won't regret in

I certainly don't regret picking up a Clutch, which I've had for a couple of months now. Clutch has become my EDC and I use it more often now than the Vic Tinker, which is also EDC.The Clutch is sort of like my Beretta 950 .25 ACP - not a full-sized tool for serious work, but can come in handy on occasion. Small enough and light enough so there's no good reason not to always have it with me. A .25 in the pocket beats a .45 sitting at home because it's too heavy-bulky to EDC!.
I've debated with myself for sometime about adding something like the Clutch to my keyring to complement my Vic Manager.More than once I could've used something a bit more than tweezers.

We've had a couple reports of stubborn little screwdrivers. Any problems getting yours to fold out?
Mine will be here soon. It will be my first Gerber and my first smaller keychain tool as well.I will let you all know what I think.

It's not much bigger than a vic classic , but it does pack quite a lot of features into that size , it could be the ideal multi to start your misses on

The SAK ones are definitely the best ones i've seen.
