Tool Logic CC1SB Credit Card Companion, Black Zytel Multifunction Tool Card With Ten Features
This is the best true “pocket” knife ever. Why? Because it’s so slim that I carry it everywhere, usually in my front pants pocket, and you don’t even know it’s there.
The knife blade is really sharp and beefy…cut’s through rope, rubber hose, cardboard packaging, etc. with ease. Anytime someone asks “anyone got a pocket knife?” they are amazed when I pull this thing out. It will handle some really tough cutting jobs.
The other features get a mixed review: The little plastic tweezers work pretty good for pulling out slivers and such.
The compass…stopped working after a year or so…not sure if it was ever accurate.
The toothpick…basically worthless, and mine fell out and got lost a long time ago.
The screwdriver/bottle opener thingy…flatblade only and not very easy to use (if you just need to loosen or tighten a screw it’s fine…if you have a lot of twisting to do forget it). Never really used the bottle opener on a bottle, but it is pretty small so I doubt it would give you enough leverage for even a really tight bottle cap. But the pick thing on the end has a very sharp point that I have used for I can’t remember what…but it is useful.
The magnifying glass works…but it’s pretty small
If you buy this tool, buy it for the knife…it’s well worth it! Don’t let my comments on the little doo-dads turn you off. It is without a doubt the easiest to carry, most useful, and best true “pocket” knife I have used. In fact, I am going to buy myself a new one! My old one is more than 10 years old, and still in decent shape, but getting dull. The serrated edge is great, but hard to sharpen. I’ve used it so much I have got my moneys worth many times over, so I have no problem buying another one.

After damaging my regular pocket knife, I purchased this so that I would always have a bottle opener, tweezers, and tooth pick handy. I didn’t want a large bulky multi-purpose knife. This fits inside my wallet easily. Sometimes I’ll leave my pocket knife at home, but never my wallet. Had to purchase a second one after forgetting it was in my wallet at the airport.
The magnifying glass on this thing is pretty much just a waste of space. It’s too small to actually see through well. The raised numbers for the ruler are hard to see since they are black on black.

This credit card companion is ok, but I much prefer the Victorionix. I bought this one because it was less expensive and I thought the knife feature looked more usable. It is more usable, but the unit does not have other features that I loved about my Victorionix (which someone admired so much that I gave it to them). Anyway, decent product as far as it goes, a little clunky to really fit in a wallet.

I purchased the Tool Logic credit card device at the same time as the similar “card-knife” tool from Victorinox. The Tool Logic device has the superior knife, but it lacks a set of scissors. (Apparently Tool Logic discontinued or downgraded their version of the Credit Card Companion that came with scissors; too bad.) When I used to carry a pocket Swiss Army knife, I found I used the scissors most of all. So now I carry the Victorinox card tool with me (even though it has a weak knife), and only pick up the Tool Logic when I anticipate needing a stronger knife.

I’ve been carrying this little guy with me for awhile now and I feel I can finally give it a good review.
Build Quality: Two pieces of Zytel that snap together and hold all the little tools. Something that I have learned about this is that if you do carry it in your wallet,(as I do) the pressure form you constantly sitting on it will cause the two pieces that comprise the case to come apart. My solution for this is to take all the removable pieces out, carefully seperate the case, and superglue the two halves together. Since I have done that, it has never come apart in my wallet.
Knife: High quality serrated blade, several ways to hold it. Incredibly sharp and sturdy. Held properly, it is rather intimidating.
Bottle Opener/Awl: As an awl, it works great, nice sharp point to scratch or put holes in things. As a bottle opener however, it takes a little getting used to. Since the awl comprises the point of the bottle opener, you can’t open anything without putting a hole through the cap. This piece also contains the “flathead screwdiver function” but it is rather awkward, and I wouldn’t recommend using that feature unless you have no other alternatives.
Tweezers: Pretty solid, I do like the fact that instead of most multi-tool tweezers that are flat, this one has teeth.
Toothpick: What you would expect, I would like to point out that I have lost my toothpick, and after having contacted Tool Logic, they replaced it at no charge(not even shipping) and it came in two days.
Magnifying Glass: Helpful for reading maps with small print but not so much beyond that.
Compass: Something I have learned about the compass on this thing; THE COMPASS ONLY WORKS IF YOU TAKE THE KNIFE OUT. The proximity of the blade interferes with the magnetics of the compass. Yuri Geller anyone?
Ruler: Useful enough I suppose, to measure short distances, I don’t carry a ruler on me generally so this does the trick.
In conclusion I love this little thing, I recommend you buy one.
