 Utili-Key vs Jeans. The jeans won. October 7, 2008
I enjoyed this handy little tool for several months. It can be a bit cumbersome leaving it attached to your keyring like I did because it's certainly longer than your average key. As a result it has a habit of getting caught in your pockets when you're trying to get it out. One night I was a bit short on patience and was trying to get my keys out to get into my apartment. It got snagged so I angrily yanked the keys out which completely snapped the top hook of the key off. Since it lost the ability to attach to anything it was junk to me so I had to toss it.
 Handy little tool August 9, 2008
I use to keep a Leatherman squirt on my keychain, but even being so small it was a little hefty for a two-key keyring. Enter the Utili-key. It's not much bigger than a large key while containing quite a few useful features. I use it frequently because it's always at my side. I'm most surprised that I use the little flat screwdriver quite often. It's small enough for small screws, and it's pretty tough.
I agree with other reviewers that it's a little hard to open, and you have to watch the blade, but I haven't cut myself yet (and I'm usually prone to it).
As tough as it is, there must've been a flaw in the metal, and the little arm (with the little screwdriver) broke off when I dropped my keys on the carpet! Surprising after what I put it though up to that point. HOWEVER Swiss Tech customer service was quick and friendly, and upheld their warranty.
This is a great company, and a handy tool for your keyring. Don't expect it to work miracles, but it's great tool to always have at your side.
Very Handy but Hard to Open May 25, 2008
I was first given one of these as a gift over 10 years ago. I lost it at one point, but bought a replacement a couple months later because I missed it so much. I have given multiple as gifts and everyone has enjoyed them, and still uses them. The only thing I do not like is that it is quite hard to open.
Pros:
- Lots of features in a very small package
- It looks like a key so if you forget to take it off your key ring it probably won't get taken by security
- The knife is surprisingly sharp
- Small screwdrivers are great for quick glasses and electronics repairs
- Physically disconnects from key-chain when open for easier use
Cons:
- Quite difficult to open
- Can cut yourself easily during opening if not careful
Overall: If you don't have a lot of grip strength, don't frustrate yourself by buying this, and don't expect it to fully replace your swiss army. That said, for small simple jobs like fixing glasses or opening boxes it is much less bulky to carry on your key-chain, and an excellent product for the price.

I got this product for my boyfriends father for christmas and he absolutely loved it! He has it on his keychain and everytime we need to open something or unscrew something he pulls it out. This is a man that has every tool imaginable. So if he likes it it must be good!
Great tool for your keyring February 9, 2008
This is a great thing to have on your keyring; it's profile is truly no bigger than most keys. I've had not trouble opening and closing it despite other reviewers. Makes a great gift for the person who has everything. Not sure however if this would get by airport security; I don't think it passes the TSA requirements--I mean it's very unlikely the screener would even notice it, but if they do, you're gonna have to just throw it away right there at the checkpoint, so leave it at home when you travel by air.
