NexTool Mini Sailor S11 Pro Keychain Multitool - Compact 12-in-1 EDC Multi To...

Since Leatherman has discontinued their extremely useful and low- cost micro/ mini multitools (Squirt S4/P4/ES4), of which mine lasted quite a long time, I searched for a mini multitool (daily office-working carry) that had the same or similar mindset as Leatherman. I had to have both pliers and scissors- non- negotiable. Didn't want any saw blades or weird things I'll never use. Didn't want any keychain hooks to dig a hole in my fabric pocket. The answer for me is this Nextool Mini Sailor. The blade is sharp and great angle for scoring, opening boxes and cutting them down, scissors that are surprisingly hefty (strong and sharp), pliers that have already been used to cut and twist 12 gauge copper wire and remove a screw in reverse, a file that is an absolute joy- can file off rough metal shards on the edge of a grinder-cut piece of aluminum, but there is another side to that file, which is fine enough to take care of my nail(s) when I have a sharp corner or broken off piece. Then of course the screwdriver/ bottle opener and Philips. I wish the tip of the Phillips was fine- ground to double serve as a glasses screwdriver adjuster, but I could do that myself (leatherman had that). The bottle opener and screwdriver are strong enough to open a bottle of Manhattan Special and also put on an electric switch plate. Surprisingly useful and strong tool! I included some pics of the pliers holding progressively heavier weight. 5lb garbage pail, 10lb full 1L water bottle, 35lb backpack. All pocket size. Great daily tool- always prepared! And unbeatable price. I don't need a lifetime warranty (leatherman promise which they fail on for discontinued tools) when the price is good enough to buy another one if it breaks!

This is compact but very useful multitool. The highlights for me are the pliers, blade, scissors and file. Pliers and scissors are spring loaded so they function very well. Both are smallish, but this is a compact set after all. The pliers are very nice, you can get a solid grip. the machining is excellent, the needle nose meets precisely and tightly, no slop in these pliers. Scissors fold into themselves, so store very compactly. The spring lets them cut and rebound. Obviously given the nature of being compact, these are sharp but small cut scissors. Yes you can cut long cuts, you will just be doing lots of them. The file is fine - fine enough you can use on fingernails, or edge cleanup/polishing. These are not deep bite, but very appropriate for tool size. Knife blade is sharp, and uses a decent quality steel, much better than you should expect at this price point. All joints are tight and smooth. Excellent tool to have in your bag.

The S11 Pro is light and does the job for most little things you'll run into without an actual toolkit available. My only real issue is that the file and knife deploy towards the keyring which gets in the way. I tried taking it apart to flip them around but ended up stripping out some screws just to find that you can't adjust the tools anyways. I'd still recommend this overall but expect the keyring / lanyard hole to get in the way a bit.

I recently got the NexTool Mini Sailor S11 Pro Keychain Multitool for my everyday carry (EDC), and it's been a fantastic addition! This little multitool packs a punch with its compact design and multiple features. The size is perfect for attaching to my keychain, so I always have it handy when I need it. It includes a variety of essential tools, like a knife, screwdriver, and bottle opener, which have come in handy more times than I can count. The versatility makes it a must-have for anyone who likes to be prepared! The build quality is impressive as well—it's sturdy and feels well-made, giving me confidence that it will last. Plus, the sleek design is aesthetically pleasing, which is a nice bonus! If you're in search of a reliable, compact multitool for your EDC, I highly recommend the NexTool Mini Sailor S11 Pro. It truly delivers on functionality and convenience!

Well made. Solid build. Just the right balance of tightness on how each tool pulls out and folds in and the notches are easy to grab with my fingernails. Don't expect these to be easy to pull out or push back in. It takes a little force, but I personally like how that works. The pliers are solid and functions well as the primary focus of the tool. The small loop is initially tucked in when new and isn't obvious it's there so you need to pull it out (see the instruction sheet). Weight is higher than I would expect, but I'm fine with it given how sturdy it is. The only tricky part is the scissors since you could cut yourself relatively easily when retracting it unless you're pressing specifically on the part close to the hinge. Again the included instructions are helpful on how to use this part of the tool. Price was higher than I was originally hoping to spend, but it's well worth the cost.

Love this multitool. Very good sharp blade and excellent scissors. The multitool itself is very similar in size/dimensions as the Leatherman squirt but better. The scissors are much better then the squirt and wingmans scissors and almost as good as victorinox scissors. Little stiff to open some tools out of the box but that's normal for multitools. Very good array of tools for edc. Everything you need and nothing you don't. Very light compared to other multitools that weigh down your pockets. And a great price, a lot cheaper and better thought out then the leading big multitool brands. Highly recommended getting one plus its non locking and blade is under 3 inches so it's even UK legal.

I've used the blade, scissors and SIM tool so far and haven't been disappointed. Great every day carry tool because it's so compact. Now searching for a sheath or case for this so it doesn't tear a hole in my pocket. This tool is barely 3 inches long when closed so finding the right size sheath has been a challenge. Checked the company website and they don't have a sheath specifically for this tool.

After many years of service, my Squirt had to be replaced. I'd looked before and found nothing satisfying. The S11 Pro is perfect. Only slightly bigger than the Squirt, and better in every way. The knife is exceptional, and the file actually works as a nail file. Far better scissors. Very high quality overall. Good enough that I'm considering buying another one for the future should it not be available.
