    aside from the flaws pointed out in the earlier reviews. This would be great if you could incorporate your keys into as some of the blades e.g. like the leatherman-key hacks you find on the web. I would gladly give up some of the tools (like a saw blade- come-on this isn't woodworking tool, it's an "in a pinch" pocket tool) in order to accommodate keys. Make it as streamlined as possible to fit as easily as possible and you've got yourself a new way of holding all your keys+tools.

    Great idea. Very poor execution. This is a product Quirky should be embarrassed by. Very poor quality. Very difficult to assemble. Very obvious problems that should have been caught WAY before the product was in customers hands.

    Spring loaded tools popping out on their own, very difficult to assemble. Not firm feeling. Some tools are very hard to pull out. Just a big disappointment all together.

    I had bought 2 of these at preorder. One for me and one for a friend's birthday (though I gave it to her way late due to the massive production push-backs). After playing with mine first, I was nearly embarrassed to give her hers. Mine sits in a box and I don't ever touch it. Very sad.

    This looks just like one I bought from the Maker store a year or so ago.
    That one was lacking in fit and finish, it seemed to me. I returned it.
    I hope this one is better, but to me it looks the same in the photos.
    Was it actually developed via Quirky?

    Where is the holster for your belt or clip to keep it with you, most every other multi-tool has one on the market, if it's a tool of your dreams wouldn't you want to take it everywhere you go?!

    It seems the file could be on the side of a few things here like the saws,thus eliminating a peice.The pliers are cute but don't seem like they could be used realisticly.The knife could also perhaps be incorperated in the back unused side of 1 of the saws
    or the bottle opener.I could see needing this if I were stuck on an island,otherwise I' pass.

    Why not make it a spanner/wrench?

    YOu dont reply to customers? Why is this reviewing one way from ideas. why is there no interaction with reviewer? That's awful way to show. make this reviewing process interactive have comment branch into this. Otherwise this is worse than Kmart review. Make it easy to discuss the topics. Quirky needs to make it better user friendly design. Right now it looks like 1.0 review level. Not interactive enough.

    How to make it interactive enough?

    Make the person to plug in and group the ideas to category under standard five category of quality assurance. YOu figure out what those are by asking the designer to decide his own category other than standard ones. That should give both the reviewer and designer solid way to track the review.

    Organize make it better, make it steve jobs better.

    I love the concept of this, but agree with other reviewers that some tools are too thin, and assembly was difficult. Worst of all, my Switch kit was missing the front and back cover parts, so I have to return it to ThinkGeek for a replacement.

    An additional idea for improvement, sell an add on kit that comes with the front and back covers, and the end caps. This would let people pick and choose their tools and make two units, like a small and medium one, with different tools.
