Looking for a BIFL multi-tool
This is true, but... Speaking for myself I am frequently somewhere not near a toolbox, or I don't have my toolbag with me, and I need pliers or a philips driver. Do I want to use the multi-tool all day for a project? Heck no. But I also don't want to have to walk back to my garage to get the tool, which will take me 3x longer than if I can pull out the multi-tool and just fix it on the spot. I like the Leatherman Wingman. It's small enough that it just clips to my pocket all day. It also doubles as the pocketknife. Having a toolbag of all of the essential tools is also important. For me that's * impact driver and bits, socket drives and a few common sockets * screwdrivers * measuring tape * lineman pliers * utility shears * sharpie * sometimes torpedo level and speed square * small container of construction screws The rest of the tools are in a toolchest or in a project-specific toolbag (i.e. plumbing, electrical, etc.)

Recommended multitool
I prefer the Leatherman Wingman for the following reasons: Smaller than the Leatherman Wave; one hand thumb open on the knife; scissors are one hand accessible on the outside; pliers are spring loaded. The individual blades can be purchased on Ebay of you break one. I have also tried the Harbor Freight Gordon (Wave copy). It was good for the money, but too big and heavy for everyday carry. Also the scissors were on the inside, meaning you had to use two hands to open the tool, then fold out the scissors. I will caveat that I broke the pliers on each of these dehooking saltwater fish. I guess if one squeezes really hard on a steel hook shank, the pliers can break off. For me, these tools are all about the knife, scissors, and pliers. The rest of the tool hardly ever gets used (except to open bottles using the edge of the tool wedged on the top of your hand).

What did you wish you had at 21?
I got my first one at 17 and stupidly left it in my backpack and forfeited it to TSA at 21 :( Leatherman 2 is going strong though

Leatherman Pocket Survival Tool (1984)
I cashed in all my Zyn Rewards(don’t Judge) and got a Leatherman wingman. And it is such a well made multitool. The case it came with wasn’t the best but it is all around really solid and well made.
