You can create with a paper clip, fishing hook, compass, mini screwdriver, spring, sim card removal tool, you can make connections in an electrical circuit, tie or secure items, you can you do some repair on your equipment, you can create a hot awl and much more, thanks.

Thanks for the interesting video. I carry the waterproof capsule on my keyring. in it I put a wrapped mini-tampon. This means it is sterile and can be used for large cuts. It also provides a very compressed form of cotton wool for fire starting and once opened up will provide a lot more cotton wool, enough to start several fires.

Great ideas. If your magnet is small enough you can store it on the parcel hook or on the can opener if it’s larger. Also the needle and thread can be stored under the small blade or under the saw (fits in the gap between the liners). I’m going to try adding a small capsule with additional tools.

Awesome inexpensive idea buddy! Those victorinox tinders are messy and expensive. The tortoise gear fireflys break too easily. The corkscrew ferro rods appear to much stronger from what I’ve seen online. I have a pill container on the 91mm Ranger. It has 3 exotac quicklight tinder bundles in it and some duct tape wrapped around it. I have put the mini ferro rod from wazoo survival gear in the pill fob with a 2 Exotac tinder bundles in the past. The wazoo ferro rod and striker now live on my keys.

I have the tortoise gear firefly fero rod and it works very well. All the videos I have seen on line of it breaking are because the testers did not READ the instructions. They will break if you try and get a spark by striking the flat of the fero rod. If you hould it and spark it from the edge side, placing your finger in the middle, supporting it, it works very well and I have started a few fires with it. Don't forget, it's for an emergency situation and not meant for daily use but for what it's designed for it works very very well.

the SAK "mini tools" are "handy"? I suppose if you wear glasses and one fits the screws for the temples it word be MAYBE worth carrying that ONE. I have a mini tool (flat screwdriver) on all my SAK's. During the 3 years I've had the mini tool mounted, I've needed to use it exactly zero times. (I need new glasses, btw. My current pair is 11 or 12 years old. Flathead screws in the wire frame.) The waterproof canister to carry small gear isn't a bad idea. I carry a waterproof match safe. Room for a couple strike anywhere matches (back up for Zippo or BiC lighter) a bit of fishing line & a hook, and other small items. Suggestion: Forget the sewing needle and a foot or so of thread. A pocket sewing kit (AKA: "POCKET WIFE") is much more practical. They include several mini spools of thread, several needles, replacement buttons, at least 1 or 2 needle threaders, and a thimble. Good for more than fixing a rip or torn seam. A small pocket sewing kit can be had for under $3 at Amazon and TEMU, among others. A medium or large suitable for cargo pocket or in the pack carry with more thread, and other items can be had for under $10. Of course you can upgrade the thread from cotton to nylon, standard sewing needles to curved; larger eye or even side threading needles, etc. if desired. For ME the match safe is a better option.

Personally, I believe that all tools are useful, each one for different tasks. You have the ability to choose which tool is most useful for you. The capsule gives you the ability to carry them all at the same time just in case. The needle for sure with the thread it is a temporary solution until you have access to a full sewing kit, Thank you for the comment.
