Leatherman Style PS Multitool

www.leatherman.com, 1.58 ounces
For those whose love of gear and gadgets conflicts with today’s go-light approach to travel (nevermind the insult of paying to check a bag), there’s finally a multitool that’s TSA-compatible. Leatherman’s new Style PS gives you a hearty handful of tools in its 2.9-inch-long body, including a petite pair of narrow, spring-action pliers (with a wire cutter); small scissors; flat- and Philips-head screwdriver with a nail file; a carabiner/bottle opener; and a pair of tweezers that ingeniously slide into the tool’s black handle. As with most Leatherman tools, the construction is top-notch, including the 100-percent stainless steel body and 25-year warranty.  No, you won’t find any sort of blade, save those on the scissors (which are shorter than the four-inch max-length dictated by the TSA).  But until they stop making you remove your shoes at the security line and allow pocket knives on planes, this is one of the best carry-on multi-tool available.
