These multi-tools always seem to have bottle openers on them somewhere. So, um, where’s the bottle opener? These multi-tools always seem to have bottle openers on them somewhere.

But then an examination of the features makes it less and less appealing. 1. 14 mm is probably too big a fastener to be using with this tool, and that size appears twice - once as 14mm an again as the SAE equivalent, 9/16. 2. The most common fastener head and perhaps the best balanced to the size of this tool would be 10mm, which is not on this tool. 3. Also, given the size of this tool, the 14" square drive is probably sufficient, and the 3/8" drive only gets in the way. 4. The range of the plug gaps is too narrow, and it's inclusion probably makes for an uncomfortable grip when using the wrenches. I think when they design these things they should focus on one application area, and include items that make sense. Is this for my bicycle, motorcycle, car, or boat?
