[longmood]

Can anyone tell me what a reamer is used for?

 

[smitty0331]

Blade, file, tweezers, toothpick, flat head screwdriver.

 

[Getahl]

Longmood, the reamer's generally used for punching holes through stuff. Can be used as a drill, too.

My top five...

Large blade
Toothpick
Scissors
Cap lifter
Phillips driver (if available)

 

[bacman99]

Out of all the tools I think the least important is the cork screw. just my two cents

Knife blade
Saw
Toothpick
Bottle opener
Screwdriver

In that order. I use the hell out of that toothpick!

 

[Rob_G]

Knife
Saw
Awl
File
Pliers (I use a Swisstool Spirit)

 

[RescueRiley]

knife blade
saw
tweezers
awl
flat head screwdriver

 

[bentblade]

I pretty much like the way the Farmer are set up.
Blade
Awl
Saw
Can opener
bottle Opener
But I would swap the Bottle Opener for the Electricians blade.

 

[thesurefire]

I find the
blade
saw
file
can opener
Philips screwdriver

the most useful.

 

[DOC-CANADA]

Saw, awl, scissors, file, can opener. Don't need the knife as I EDC 2 others.
