One for the Hook! I sometimes carry the Climber or Compact and awlways find a use for the Hook. It's perfect for shopping bags, with a paracord lanyard I have, made specially to be used with the hook.
Do you have any pictures to show how it works?
Sure, I can even show you how to do it:https://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,85617.msg2165670.html#msg2165670
The nail file hook should be the standard on SAK's, that's a function almost everyone can use.
while i can live without the hook, i'd rather have it there on sak's that have it, than not...It's not only handy for lots of things but also you can hide a modded micro SD under it, or a pin...Here i used it as a jacket holder at work's wc last year(Image removed from quote.)
The question remains, of course, why you didn't just use the jacket holder which is right next to the SAK?
LOL... What jacket holder...?? You mean that ball end stud that's both the stop for the lock when it's unlocked and door knob puller?because it was too short/rounded and thick and the jacket would fall off. Too thick to hang it by the collar "lace" too...There is usually a hanger in the upper middle of the door but it was gone... (no surprises there, on a public company's wc...)
Was there a hole left where the hanger was? If so, the SAK with hook makes a perfect coat hanger.
I can see how the hook would be useful to some people. But I have never used one, so I'm neutral about it. But its the corkscrew that I would love to see disappear. I have never used a corkscrew either, and it takes up real space on the SAK.
