I don't really care at all about mini tools, but if I did, I'd have to own the one called Zyklop so I could tell people I had a Cyclops.

I don't know that I'd categorize that as a "min". When you see some of these other options in person or in videos with humans you get a sense of how small they really are. Yes, the linked-to product is a 1/4" ratchet, but it's not as small as the others and it works differently in that it just takes sockets while many of the others have a "female" attachment on the ratchet to take hex bits.

I have 2 similar mini tools, posted earlier in this thread.

You can apply more torque with the Kobalt tool while the Vessel has some statement about maximum torque. Both are great tools around the house, comes in handy for things like door handles on sliding doors that face the glass. In the past I imagine you could put a bit into pliers...
Ugh, hate this thread...These sets are very cool, maybe keep one in the trailer/truck as well.

I’m slightly obsessed with these mini-tool sets. No idea why as I have zero need of one…

I really, really, really want a kit just like that, but from Wera instead of Wiha. I am not a fan of that Wiha plastic screwdriver handle, based on my experience with two of them stripping out.I have 2 similar mini tools, posted earlier in this thread.

Ordered up one of each of these (maybe I need to start my own thread for this obsession, lol)
The VIM definitely has finer clicks, but the mulwark is thinner overall if space is at that much of a premium. The Vim also holds the bits tighter. Maybe too tight, maybe not. Had to use one bit to push the other out.

I was thinking about this earlier today. Its easy to see "European/German" tools and assume they are all good. But that cannot be the case. Is Wera a tier above Wiha?
Suppose I could google but does someone have a list of the top German tools down to their cheapest brands?
Like Felo, where do they fall?
This is a slick little slotted screw driver with a grabber for $12. Pretty sure you are losing money if you don't buy this meow!

Kind of annoying that he didn't include the graph on cutting the nail. Honestly, that's about all the human hand can do anyway. The rest is just fluff.
