The utili-key saved my life...without it, I could have been caught in a burning car. I used it to cut my seat belt off after a serious accident. The car didn't catch on fire, but the possibility was there. Thank you for making such a useful tool. It also makes me feel like James Bond :-)

I want to share a story on the effectiveness of the Swiss-Tech tool (original flavour). Driving through the snow in Quebec between Trois-Rivieres and Montreal, the car I found myself in started making a droning, grinding blare. We pulled over to find the front bumper, that had struck one too many parking blocks and snow banks, rubbing the driver side tire. When I asked the driver, a non-tech type, for his tool box, I figured his answer when a half-witted look overtook his countenance. Uh...tools? I thought to myself "[insert expletive here]." But, in my pocket, where my little tool has lived for its entire life, was the Swiss-Tech. A few Phillips screws later, a quarter of the bumper was removed. Running the Flat screwdriver through the cheap plastic shell, I created a groove; next I found a length of framing wire long enough to lash the bumper through a rust hole in the wheel well (the hole having been "accidentally" enlarged, again using the Phillips). A twist here, a snip there, most of the screws back in place...Good as new. We drove off, through the snow, both overjoyed I had a "toolbox" in my pocket.
Thanks

I am writing you in regard to one of your products, the Micro+Tech tool. I was recently deployed to Afghanistan. On April 15, 2012 we were attacked by insurgents. During the firefight our barracks were burned down.
I always carry my everyday carry gear which consist of a Swiss Army Knife, cuff key, micro titanium pry bar and your Micro+Tech. Well during the attack I forgot to grab my stuff and we lost everything. Over the next couple of days we sifted through the remains of our barracks. Not much there at all. However, I did find the Micro+Tech. With a little elbow grease and some WD-40 and it’s back in order. All other tools had to be replaced. I have pictures if there is a email address for you guys.
I just wanted to say that after going through that and surviving, it shows the quality of product you put out. After this, I am a lifelong customer.
Thanks for great products and keep up the good work.

I am a Soldier currently deployed to Afghanistan in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. As a Soldier, I frequently find myself needing a tool when none is available.
In December 1997, I had just come back from a year-long tour of duty in Korea. My wife, Roberta, asked me what sort of stocking stuffer types of things I might like for Christmas. I'm a "gadget guy" and notoriously difficult to shop for, so she prefers the direct approach. I had just been looking through the latest REI (Recreational Equipment, Inc.) catalog where I'd seen your Utili-Key... Click here to read the entire testimonial.
