NexTool F12 Mini Multitool, 13-in-1 Keychain Multitool with Serrated Scissors, File and Safety Lock, Upgraded 80Cr14Mov Steel Multi Tool for EDC, Outdoor Adventures and DIY, Gifts for Men

Great little multitool, lots of handy tools and safe to carry in public because there’s no knife/blade (the UK has strict safety laws regarding knives). This multitool, despite its low price, is very well made out of robust metal that would withstand everyday use as intended. It is easy to use even for a woman like myself who normally multitools are not aimed towards. The tools could be a little easier to open up out of the handle as it is a little stiff but I’m sure that’ll ease over time. The only other thing I would change is the keychain part. It is quite small and may break because the keyring is quite thin. Also if it had an included real leather sheath / pouch, that would be nice too.

A super little multitool that's well worth the money. It can also be found under different name ranges , but its the same tool in different colours, and so far, this is the cheapest I've seen it. It's an ideal Every Day Carry multitool and will fit in most pockets and bags etc., and fits nicely into a leatherman micra pouch if it needs to be worn on a belt. It's legal to carry in public in the UK, as the blade is both under 3 inches in length and is non locking. The scissors are really good with a strong spring action, and fit nicely into the compact body of the tool. I'm happy to recommend this to anyone looking for a relatively inexpensive yet capable multitool.

For £20, I wasn’t expecting much. How wrong I was. It feels and looks too quality. The knife is the perfect size to slip in me pocket, and not know it’s there. I don’t want a big case and it sticking in my side on the belt. This fits nicely in my hand, tools are designed very well, knife is sharp , tin opener bottle opener, all work great. Scissors are razor sharp. Pliers work great. There is nothing I can say negative about this tool. I own 4 victorinox pen knives, work with tools as an electrical engineer, and this will be my new everyday pocket tool. Recommend

Bought for a holiday in North America as I carry a Swiss army knife on me at all times and use it most days, and this promised it was TSA approved. Had an argument about it at Heathrow Airport, but got it through as I showed the security guy the CAA website doesn't mention general tools being banned. Not the tool's fault but for me the reason I bought it. Tool itself is solidly built with excellent pliers. I've used the scissors a fair bit and they're also well made, but a little difficult to get out of the body. I've not used the cross point screwdriver, but it doesn't have the zero point tip of my Victorinox and has rounded edges so won't be as universal a fit, and the flat tip driver isn't ground, so again will be a last resort rather than a go to tool. Will keep using it for travelling when I can't take my Victorinox, or when I need a small bit well made set of pliers.

Works well, good value for money. Blades are very sharp. Small size means easy to take with you. Only issue was getting the scissors out.

Update 21/2/24. Sadly over the last few days the blade has become looser, and yesterday the spring for the blade sheared off about a centimetre back from the blade, just as I was opening the blade, making the knife blade totally useless. Obviously a problem with the quality/tempering of the steel spring. Similar happened with my mini flagship on the pliers after about 4 weeks of light use eg opening parcels. The mini sailor took about 8 weeks! Will be sending it back. A real shame. Nice looking, handy, but only worth one star for lifetime of a couple of months. Ordered this after a mini flagship broke after just a few weeks when one of the plier "springs" snapped. This is built more like a traditional penknife with long spring bars on the back of the handles. I would have thought it too small and light for camping/hiking, but as an everyday carry just in case is quite useful. Blade was a bit dull but sharpened easily, Scissors are small but useful for cutting string, paper, card, screwdrivers are handy for small to medium screws where not much torque is needed. ( the Phillips will turn some quite tiny ones; eg portable radio back). I personally would rather have a file than the can/bottle opener, but the can opener does work. Haven't really put the pliers to work much. I think they probably would snap under heavy pressure, but they have proved useful on several occasions when the trolleys at the local supermarket refused to eject the token/pound coin even though it had been connected to the next trolley, and for cutting through light wire, e.g. rewiring a plug. Some of the springs seem a little weak: there is very little pressure needed to close the "larger" tools (knife and can/bottle opener). But overall, a useful little tool to have. Will update if any problems arise. Update 23/2/24. It would be unfair not to comment on Nextool's customer service, which has been very good. I first ordered the mini flagship which quickly developed a similar problem when a spring on the pliers sheared. I returned it and ordered the mini sailor. However Nextool obviously monitor reviews, and contacted me by the Amazon messenger service. By that time I had already returned the item and requested a refund. Because the message was still on the service I was able to message Nextool regarding the problem with the mini sailor. They offered a refund or replacement. I have chosen the refund. Now have to decide what to buy instead! Both tools were really nicely designed, easy to carry and good to use. There is not much else of similar size with the same features. Would be 5 stars if they had not broken.

This was my first Nestool, and I was totally taken back by the quality. Every component part moved smoothly, without any freeplay. All the edges and corners smoothly finished, leaving only the sharper edges where they were designed to be. I will certainly explore Nextool other multi-tools.
