Most UNDERRATED knives/tools/flashlights/etc of all time

I'll start. SOG PowerPint. I keep one in my desk drawer and it just a FANTASTIC multitool!

When I bought one of these, I thought I would rarely use it. Man, was I wrong.

Here are a few :

The lowly tack puller / pry bar . Buy two; I some times use them back to back for spreading a gap open . I use the heck out of these little pry tools often at work (can't remember the last time I pulled a tack with one of them).

You'll think I'm nuts but :
The small 1/8 wide flat blade screw driver . Specifially I like the Klein 2 inch shaft and the Craftsman of similar size.
Just yesterday I went to buy another Klein to have one on my side table rather than just in my shops and they seem to have discontinued it and went with a version designed so the tip fits down into holes in contact blocks or some such . I like the old style with the wider flattened area above the tip.
I have one on my work apron all the time and am always prying , pushing , poking , applying a dab of grease , opening packaging / little box lids . . . and . . . one can even turn little slotted screws with it in a pinch ! One of my most often used tools / all day everyday .

And last the :

Nitecore Tube v2.0 Keychain Flashlight, 55 Lumen USB Rechargeable Ultra Lightweight Compact​

I always have one of these on me on one of those belt clips for a key ring. My keys are in my pocket but the light is super accessible on the belt clip.
On my work pants or on my house lounging pants . Rather than turn on a light to retrieve something in another room very often I just turn on my Nitecore .
They don't last long for one reason or another ; I get a year or two out of one . I have bought many over the years and will continue to replace them. The amount of light out put is PERFECT for me . I don't need or want more than the 45 or 55 lumens for most of my around the house goofing around and these are MUCH handier to use than any of my plethora of other little lights .

It's hard to call such an expensive light as the Surefire Aviator underrated, and I know it has a cult following, but the option of a low output red secondary beam on a flashlight is a highly underrated feature IMO. I've been carrying these for a couple of decades now, and it's an option I can no longer do without in my main EDC flashlight. It's so useful that I don't understand why more flashlights don't offer this.

(Mine are the A2LED, not the current version)

Been using these for over 20 years but never knew what they were called. As useful as they are I'm surprised they aren't more prevalent. My first one and favorite is made by Bosch.
