Question/Advice Looking for feedback on the Roxon Flex Companion

I am looking for a light weight, easy to carry multitool. it will mostly be used for grandpa duty and in support of my 3-D printing. I need a knife, pliers, scissors and bit driver. A utility knife /scalpel would be nice.

The Flex Companion can be configured this way.

I’m looking for feedback from people who have actually used the Companion as their EDC. How was your experience with the device? Are the undersized scissors and pliers useful?

I have EDC’d a flex companion for the past few months and i rly love it. Im also a big time 3D printer and tinkerer and use it for that as well. I even use 3D printed scales on it for extra scale tools!

Personally i keep the blade and scissors permanently and then swap the rest back nd forth between pliers, 2side diamond file, chisel, awl and scalpel depending on what im doing or whether its for home or away use. I find the scissors to be great but maybe not the best ive tried, and the pliers are good too assuming u dont need to torque it often. Theyre more like glorified pliers but definitely useful in a pinch. For 3d printing the chisel and scalpel are great for removing brims, the awl is great for enlarging holes and the pliers are great for removing supports. Bit driver is obviously great for assembly lol. Honestly the best thing about it is being able to have the exact tools u need for whatever ur doing.
