- Is the Gerber Dime worth it over a full-size multi-tool?
- Only if you want something tiny on your keys. It handles scissors, bottles and light screws, but its pliers and blade are too small for real repair work.
- How does it compare with the Leatherman Micra?
- The Micra has better scissors and a sturdier feel but no pliers. The Dime adds small pliers and a bottle opener in a lighter body, at the cost of build quality.
- Does it have a locking blade?
- No. The blade is a non-locking slip-joint, so it is fine for light cutting but not for forceful work.
- Can it go on a keyring?
- Yes. It has a retractable lanyard ring that clips to keys, and at 2.3 ounces it adds little bulk.
- What tools are included?
- Scissors, a fine-edge knife, a bottle opener, a file, a small flathead screwdriver, wire strippers and tweezers.
- Is it allowed in carry-on luggage?
- No. It has a blade, so it must go in checked baggage on flights.
