Let's say you could have a simple multitool but you were limited the following components: A knife and two other tools. Pliers and scissors are NOT included. What would be your choices for two additional tools besides the knife and why would you find them to be indespensible?
 
Straight screwdriver and phillips screwdriver. Seems that I use those the most besides the pliers and knifeblade.
 
Since pliars and scissors are not allowed, and only two tools:
A standard screwdriver and a phillips screwdriver.
I've noticed over the years that I use my screwdrivers on my SAKs and multi-tools alot, especially the phillips.
Of course since TORX screws are becoming more popular maybe a tool with only a main blade and a bit adaptor (like the Cybertool) would be best. With a tip-holder of course.

Good luck,
Allen.
 
I haven't decided what my two choices would be but one is definitely a combination straight screwdriver with bottle opener. That seems to have become pretty much the standard over the years. Tweezers are also fairly essential to me but I can't see them as a main tool since they can be slipped in under a scale like the SAK does.
 
I would have to choose a bottle opener/screwdriver & I like the idea of the bit holder, but how about a magnetic bit holder so they dont fall out as easily.:)
