I'm still EDCing a cybertool 34.  For sure the most two used for me are the scissors and philips driver.  Third would be a tie between blade and tweezers (I get alot of wood and metal slivers).
PM me or email sakmodder [at] gmail . com if you are looking for custom SAK work.

First and foremost, scissors.
Somewhat distant second, blade.

Pliers is number 1

It's pretty close between knife blade and bit driver for the number 2 spot.

I have different tools for different jobs, so they're all different  :whistle:

Octane is bottle opener and pliers, SAK's are scissors and blade, Dime is package opener and bottle opener, EDC pliers tools tend to be pliers and .... depends which tool and where I am and what I'm doing ... boat, work, home, hiking, around town, visiting friends, in the car .... :think:

Nah, can't answer this as it all varies too much  :-[ That's why I've got so many tools  :whistle:

My most used is the toothpick. Then comes combo opener! I'm carring another folder, or some times a fix, so rarely using the blade of my Compact.

It all depends where I'm at. If I'm at home it would have to be scissors and Phillips. When I'm at work large flat screwdriver and the pliers.
