Why This Is My #1 EDC Multitool: Nextool Mini Flagship

I have carried multi tools most of my life, and trust me I am an old guy. I carried several Lethermens while I was working, now retired, for several years. I carried the Gerber dime but was never happy with it. I carried Nextool and found the scissors to be the best tool on them. What I settled on for EDC for a non work tool is the SOG Power Pint. What I find I need more than anything is a bit driver and SOG makes one of the best bit driver systems, pliers SOGs are adequate and occasionally scissors SOG scissors leave a lot to be desired.

I will take 3 at $10 each ...

Too small. If Nextool ran a model in between the size of this tool and the full size flagship pro, with a pocket clip, it would be a much more useful tool.

As is, mine lives in the junk drawer and the SOG Powerpint goes in my pocket.

Check out the Nextool E1 Pocket Multitool, it's even better! Has a Leatherman type bit holder, hobby blade, box cutter and a pretty decent file.

I've had a Mini Flagship for a year or so. I like that both the pliers and scissors are relatively large. I find it to be heavier than I prefer for a keychain tool. I carry a Victorinox Rambler with my keys.

The Mini Sailor Scissors version also has a relatively large scissors, but with a tiny pliers.

Good day Darren, thank you for sharing NexTool Mini Flagship, the video explanation is very detailed, thank you so much. The full size sicssors is the main feature of mini flagship multitool, most of customer love this design, and I believe it would not let you down.

I like this and find it beats the LM Squirt PS4 on all tools except for the file, the Squirt file is more aggressive and also the edge has small teeth so it works as a hacksaw in a pinch. But the scissors on it are terrible, as is the soft 2D Phillips with no profile/indentations.
This is the only multitool scissors as good as Victorinox and I mean the full size scissors, it's better than the small scissors on the Classic etc.
So I carry the Nextool with a folder only, as it can cover every other small job I might come across with it's toolset. Other days I carry a Victorinox with scissors (Climber, Farmer X or Swisschamp) and sometimes Knipex Cobra too.

Ok so is it stainless steel or steel?!?!? lmao

fantastic review, thank you. i am looking for a small edc keychain sized handy unit for light tasks. this looks perfect

Amazing review. Thank you, bro!

You mean the pocket-watch pocket, not the coin pocket.
The spring on my Victorinox scissors has been work perfectly for just over forty year.

Love my mini flagship, keep it in my desk, and use it at least 4 times during the day. I have other multi tool sets, but I keep coming back to this one.

I carry this every day in my little trouser pocket. The scissors are by far the most useful item on any tool I use so these are a winner. I also find the little pliers very handy. If only they would add some tweezers and perhaps make the file courser.

For me Nextool Mini Sailor is the best when it comes to pocket and mini size. I have nextool mini sailor, planning to get either Nextool Sailor Pro or Nextool Captain for daily drive and addition to my edc stuff ❤️

I wanted to like this thing, but one of the handle springs broke on me just from opening and closing it. Failed so spectacularly that I won't be trying it again. The Roxon KS2E has treated me a lot better. use those scissors daily and they're still tearing through material.
