Hands On Review: Nite Ize DoohicKey Stainless Multi-Tool and Bottle Opener

review Nite Ize KMT-11-R3 DoohicKey Multi-Tool, Stainless

I’m a big fan of Nite-Ize Gear.  I have… the S-Biner Ahh Caribiner Clip Bottle Opener (standard equipment for me when traveling), KBB9-03-01 KnotBone Adjustable BungeeSBL-03-11 S-Biner GetLit, StainlessC9L-02-01 Large Figure 9 Carabiner and Gear Tie Clippable Twist Tie.  In my opinion… they make some really well thought out, innovative and quality stuff.

Here’s a look at their DoohicKey Stainless Multi Tool

cln_img_9826Prior to getting the DoohicKey, did I have a bottle opener on my keychain?  Of course I did!  Here’s what the DoohicKey is replacing.  A nice little key shaped opener I got after taking a tour of Boulevard Brewing Company in Kansas City.

Conclusions

I’ve had this in my key ring since September of 2015. I use it regularly like it very much.  I already carried a bottle opener, so having that along is nice, but it’s nothing new.  I’ve used the opener a good bit and it works well.  The feature I use the most is probably the box cutter.  It’s been very handy to have on hand.  It’s not very sharp, but it’s enough to work pretty easily on most boxes.  Beyond that the carabiner clip is a nice feature to detach this puppy as needed.

Overall, this matches the quality and ingenuity I’ve seen in other Nite Ize gear.  It’s a nice little keychain opener that I can recommend.

HBF Reader EchoTony says: “I have this and it is great. Mostly use the blade edge for opening packages, but the opener has been handy a few times. Very simple, but works great.”

Also Check out the S-Biner Ahhh Carabiner Clip Bottle Opener from Nite-Ize.  That’s a carabiner style bottle opener that I always carry with me when I travel.  It functions as a handy carabiner (no climbing) and a bottle opener.

    I’ll have to check this out. I always have a S-Biner Ahhh clipped to my belt. I own two of those, and I love them.

    Also, love the Boulevard opener. Great beer!
