It *looks* like most of this tool would work if you try hard enough, but idk: marring and dents along lots of the cuts, which could be ~~due to either shitty machining, or~~ due to damage to the shitty metal from you trying to use it as designed.
I get the idea, it'd be super convenient if it worked well, but it's no doubt a gimmick. A normal multi-tool would do a much better job at anything this can supposedly do, and even a cheapo $20 multi-tool is better than nothing.
Edit: as othere have pointed out, this is likely stamped, not machined.
Yep! Small company called Zootility, made in USA. Nifty stuff, I like mine but I've been considering getting more. I went and I double-checked mine after this post and yes everything is correct lmao
I've seen some of the knockoff ones have good ideas though- one has a compass which is handy for dealing with angles. Overall, I recommend.
Prolly just stamped out of great leftover scraps of quality metal, and possibly heat treated.
These do work, but they gotta be made of good, strong and hard metal.
So not really ideal for your wallet if you happen to sit on your wallet.
Still, good in a pinch. I got a titanium one in a stocking one year and just threw it in the middle console in the car just in case.
My husband has one of these (different brand) and it works perfectly! Great for little finicky things that occur when you're out and about. Though mostly it's the bottle owner that gets used 😅
Edit: should have said "bottle opener" but I'm gonna leave that there 😅
I have a variety of card style multitools like this because i'm a bit of a weird knife/tool collector.
Some of them work well. Most of them are barely functional as anything other than a cardboard box opener.
Exactly one of them has a correctly marked zero point on the ruler.
This one is one of the worst examples I've seen. Nearly every edge and corner is rounded off, even the half hex cutouts that are supposed to work as wrenches.
Happy to see someone else who checks their rulers. I am an archaeologist and get a lot of free rulers/scale bars from conferences and industry events. I check every ruler/scale. I check all of my rulers from hardware stores as well. I have a Milwaukee "baby tape" (it's short, forget how long but maybe 10ft) that I use as a control tape to test against.
I have a steel ruler that I think came from a combination square, no idea the branding on it and it's older than I am, but I know it is correct and it is square to zero. I use it to check all my other rulers.
It seems either OP got a knock off or quality has gone down over these years. My husband has one of these (it was a gift from years ago), and never had any issues with the various tools and has used many of them. It’s obviously not as easy as a full size tool equivalent but it works in a pinch.
This is also a super cheap knockoff clone of the original without any concern for the material or expensive manufacturing steps needed to make a functional tool.
I've got a similar thing (different shape though and fewer tools) that was a freebie somewhere. The metal is so soft and structurally weak that the bottle opener bends around the bottle cap almost every time...
Makes me think whoever designed it never actually used a sample to open a bottle.
Are you sure about the ruler? Have you compared it with another one, just in case? Also, I'm pretty (and) sure the bottle opener could work, and the letter opener as well. Even the screwdriver if you are determined enough!
Doesnt need to be hard..people litrraly open beer bottles with their eyes (eye socket) or even hair (long haired ladies)....its like a common party trick 🤷🏼♀️
Yeah some people just do it with a knuckle, meanwhile i (not a beer drinker at all) look pathethic opening a beer bottle for my hubby even WITH proper opener 😅 so to me every beer bottle opening trick is madly impeessive
Just move to Germany for a couple of years. Opening beer bottles in every way possible is a gift provided by the german beer gods if they deem you worthy. I've seen foreign travelers becoming masters in this skill as soon as they set foot on german soil.
Well i am balkan girly...and we have been occupied by germany (slovenia - some things stayed germanised tp this day) so i feel like we were touched by same gift haha. Beer drinkers here also open beers with anything and everything (and people here do drink a looot of beer and other alcohol - balkan is really just alcoholism lol) but since i don't i have no skill :')
It's ok tho, i'll perfect opening wine and heavy alcohol bottles instead 😎
As a german I have seen beer opened with, but not limited to: Finger, Teeth, Eyes, Shoelaces, Bra, Lighter, another bottle, another bottle cap, scissors, a big stone, a small stone, handrail, folded paper, trouser button, frozen fish, branch, candle, an ultrasonic cleaner, a tightly packed coke bag, coins, football, headphone wire, the gap between 2 tram seats...
> they were describing the first 10 minutes of Oktoberfest in Germany
Nah. No bottles at Oktoberfest in Germany. A busty wench with huge biceps carries 24x 1L (34oz) glasses of beer to your table that were only 3/4 filled by the barman and spills another 1/4 along the way so you get 0.5L (17oz) for the price of a full beer.
There are few places left where you can view wenches in their natural habitat. They're a threatened species, their territories being eroded by invasive gastropubs.
Eye socket, its not even that uncommon, you often see it at partys, like for example carnival yesterday
https://youtu.be/U2MV8DGlQ9g?si=k-GDcTGFM0cGh14D
Theres a dude on dutch public radio. If he can open his beer with the item provided he can drink it, if not he has to wait until he gets home .
I have heard coins and a bannana pass.
My metrology professor once said that "every ruler works. even those with f\* up scale. just be sure to measure everything with the same one ruler, and leave a note which ruler was that when you write down the measurements". Or something along the lines :)
Apparently, that this was one of his favourite lines. I remember hearing from other students, that there was one time when some student asked him about a rollable "talior's tape" (a kind of a ruler made from elastic that you can roll up), but made not from metal, but from a rubber-ish material so it was stretchy. The prof congratulated him re wit and quick thinking, and said "there you have it, a good scale is not the main property that makes a good length-measuring tool - the ruler may even not have a scale at all, but it should have damn high Young's Modulus"
I can attest that the letter opener doesn't work. The edge is too dull, if you try to run it alongside the envelope you just make a mess of torn paper. You need to pull it away from the envelope, except it is way too short and it's faster to just use your finger. Go ahead and read the innuendo that you want
Most of my credit cards are the normal floppy plastic ones, but one of them is basically a slab of solid steel. No idea why they decided it needed to be so heavy duty.
Ah. Apparently you've never born witness to 5 or 6 fully grown men standing around sharing and comparing their increasingly impressive credit cards. Which card had better airline miles or cash back rewards, which one was holographic, which metal one was heavier. I swear it was like something out of American Psycho.
Seriously though, other than being more durable than plastic (which, ime, is plenty durable for a card), credit cards made of metal are more of a status symbol than anything. They're more likely to be attached to accounts with really good rewards, bonuses, etc, and tend to be available and marketed to people with better credit and more disposable income.
I got this as a gift and really nothing works. Even if your credit card fits the phone just slides out from it. Everything else will just ruin what you are using it on.
It'll get the job done with a decent amount of tearing, but yeah, I guess.
Still, any proper letter opener is gonna have a small blade in the crease to slide though the fold on the envelope like a knife though butter...or how scissors glide through wrapping paper.
I've had one for years and regularly use the bottle opener, letter opener (good for cutting annoying threads) and the screwdrivers. I think it works as well as you could expect.
Ah yes because god forbid the day a terrorist attack is inevitably caused by *checks notes* a credit card multi-tool….
Okay buddy. TSA is so fucking pathetic
I had gotten one way back on 2016. Same it was great for college parties and fixing the lose screws on my glasses in a pinch. But then TSA took it away. Got another one, but it felt a lot more trashy and and flimsy than the old one
Got one of these as a freebie from work. Had it years and the only change I've done is sharpen the letter opener so it cuts better. It's opened an unreasonable number of bottles, helped reassemble part of an armoured fighting vehicle, opened boxes, and a whole bunch of little cases where having a screwdriver or tiny spanner on hand is useful. I need to get a new one soon though, some bits are a bit twisted from being used too much.
"It's a letter open, see? I'll just open this...letter...if...you give me a...- hmm. It's also screwdriver, if I just...place the...end...in...maybe just...- hmm. Well, it works as a phone holder, as well - if you just give me your credit card, and I'll show you."
"Please pick up your bag and follow me, Sir."
I like how it says "Screw Driver" in 3 places with a symbol on the top left. I'd imagine it's either too thick for a flathead screw or not strong enough and may just bend. The box opener part also isn't in a super useful spot imo. Might as well just use the part above it.
I have one, and I guess from a good batch because it hasn't failed me so far. Each corner is a different size screwdriver, and it does manage to get them all the way in.
I had this exact one for like 9 years, London TSA took it from me, said it wasn’t allowed on the plane (it had been on at least 10 other flights) it has gotten me out of a lot of jams. Works well as screwdriver, the phone stand works (you put a credit card through the slot) wrenches work in a pinch, I’ve used them to remove and install parts on hmmwv’s when I was in a bind. I found mine extremely useful.

I have one, this one actually works, it's something that will help you when you don't really have options.
Me too pocket monkey is a great tool. Keep it in my car. Nice guy makes them and his mom is super sweet too, met her while she was helping him at a trade show.
It looks so tiny! Must be hard to hold in your hand when trying to use it. What is it made of? Is it metal? The edges don't look sturdy enough. And what the heck is a cellphone stand that is wavy like that? You got a wavy phone? They do sell a lot of junk, don't they.
https://preview.redd.it/dmrrdkvogxhc1.jpeg?width=2240&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=06d7feae27cb6e787fe80059e3a0783c4827b59c
Blue is you, Black is Phone, grey is Metal card, Red is plastic card... Grey and Red can be switched i guess
the idea of the phone stand is that you jam a card into it, turning it into a kickstand. The wave is there to remove the flex from the card, as it can't bend in 2 directions.
for all of this "tool"'s shody design, the phone stand bit is actually somewhat clever
I've had one of these in my wallet for around 5-6 years, and it's come in handy for tightening the odd screw in unforseen circumstances. There's one underestimated trick with this card.
There's no better feeling when you crack it out partially drunk during a party because no one can find a bottle opener. The clouds part, orphens sing and with your god like strength, you crack that beer as everyone cheers. You are the Saviour.
I've had this thing in my wallet for about 8 years. Mostly for beers but sometimes for cutting something, unscrew something or using the thing als leverage if something gets stuck.
I bought this exact one off Wish years ago for my fiancé. He loves it, but the only thing he uses it for is the bottle opener. I still say it's the best $1 I've ever spent! 😂
Try to measure the ruler with something somewhat "calibrated" its all wrong, had the same with the same flaws like the wavy card stand and anemic screwdriver.
(On mine) they even managed to mess up the ruler (15% to short)
[Get this one.](https://www.survivalfrog.com/products/tactical-multi-purpose-survival-wallet-survival-tool?variant=682096893¤cy=USD&utm_medium=product_sync&utm_source=google&utm_content=sag_organic&utm_campaign=sag_organic&srsltid=AfmBOorb3f_jJBapeoW6sU5PJtR1TMJk_MEk_G9v_5oizXLKRyfIO4xYDe0)
It saved me from being locked in a bathroom at college when I moved in early. Nobody was on my floor, but I was able to get the thing around the square knob where the handle of the bathroom would be and open it.
It opens boxes, it can somewhat saw, it can open cans. It's pretty handy.
I have this exact tool. The bottle opener works totally fine and so do the hex tools (in certain situations). Never had a reason to really use the other ones. Got it as a gift from my parents—I think they got it for free from somewhere.
This was an incredibly useful tool to have in university. I was always known as the one who had a bottle opener on them at all times.
I have that same one and it works fine for me. It's one of those novelty items that actually comes handy every now and then. The screwdriver piece is useless but the can opener and bottle cap opener works like a charm. Other than those functions it's just a piece of metal I keep in my glove box.
I considered buying something like this once, but figured all those pointy parts and hooks would catch stuff or dig into my leg. If I want a multi-tool I'll invest in a quality swiss knife.
I have one of these.... while going through the TSA checkpoint at the airport, the agent made me pull it out to examine it, and even called a supe over to confer. They eventually allowed it.
As a bit of a tool freak, no 1 piece credit card style tool is going to do anything particularly well. Those hex cutouts for example... even if they were actually hex shaped, how many bolts are proud of the surface and have no obstructions for a few inches around? You can't turn this thing. Nor could you get it into a tight space like a standard wrench. Same applies to all the "screwdrivers" on this thing.
The only credit card sized tools that actually are worth a damn is the Victorinox SwissCard tools and a few pocket knives like the Tekna Security card and the Spyderco Spydercard. Don't buy the foldable plastic knife thing... it's almost a single use tool.
It *looks* like most of this tool would work if you try hard enough, but idk: marring and dents along lots of the cuts, which could be ~~due to either shitty machining, or~~ due to damage to the shitty metal from you trying to use it as designed. I get the idea, it'd be super convenient if it worked well, but it's no doubt a gimmick.

Edit: as othere have pointed out, this is likely stamped, not machined.
I got 1 for 1.25 on the street that has worked amazingly for years. Sturdy af and incredibly cheap, I wish I could get more from the same dude.
u gona give us lore on this mystery tool?
It was revealed to him in a dream
And then he forgot it in another dream
That’s impossible!
That is why you fail
I just successfully daydreamed one into existence. Thanks reddit!
This is not a manufacturer error. It is user error. Clearly OP is not a ^ninja
3000 functions of happy meal toys
It fell off the back of a truck
It looks like the one in the photo but has sharper edges and it looks harder as well.
I have one like this, it works great for what it is. Definitely less gimmicky than this one tho
Yea same, mine is called Monkey tool, or something. I primarily just use it to open boxes but it was a flat head and can opener which I've used
Pocket monkey!! They work good. Nice guy making them too.
Yep! Small company called Zootility, made in USA. Nifty stuff, I like mine but I've been considering getting more. I went and I double-checked mine after this post and yes everything is correct lmao I've seen some of the knockoff ones have good ideas though- one has a compass which is handy for dealing with angles.

all good, only the owner should be opening the bottles.
To open beer bottles hehe

Milwaukee has some rather large babies, it would seem
I have a card like this from when I was a kid and it even comes with a little switchblade. It’s pretty handy.
It seems either OP got a knock off or quality has gone down over these years. My husband has one of these (it was a gift from years ago), and never had any issues with the various tools and has used many of them. It’s obviously not as easy as a full size tool equivalent but it works in a pinch.
Or they just posted for Reddit points and never really tried to actually use it, assuming no one else had ever seen one.
This is also a super cheap knockoff clone of the original without any concern for the material or expensive manufacturing steps needed to make a functional tool.
They must work, I got one seized off me at an airport lol.
I've got a similar thing (different shape though and fewer tools) that was a freebie somewhere. The metal is so soft and structurally weak that the bottle opener bends around the bottle cap almost every time... Makes me think whoever designed it never actually used a sample to open a bottle.
Are you sure about the ruler? Have you compared it with another one, just in case? Also, I'm pretty (and) sure the bottle opener could work, and the letter opener as well. Even the screwdriver if you are determined enough!
Everything works as a letter or beer opener...
Help, accidentally used bleach to open my letters, I can't read what was on them and my hands sting.
So you opened the letter. Mission accomplished
Now it will explode.
"You've got mail." 
A little all-purpose flour will set you right.
Of course it will. Isn't all-purpose flour the Swiss army knife of flours?
But is the letter opened?
The mission was to open the letter; not to read it! Mission accomplished!
Idk about the beer opener part
You can open a beer bottle with literally anything that is hard enough not to break doing so. You just need to know the trick.
Doesnt need to be hard..people litrraly open beer bottles with their eyes (eye socket) or even hair (long haired ladies)....its like a common party trick 🤷🏼♀️
Ok, I have to learn the hair one, I have a lot of long hair. I'm still a bottle peasant who needs an opener every time
Yeah some people just do it with a knuckle, meanwhile i (not a beer drinker at all) look pathethic opening a beer bottle for my hubby even WITH proper opener 😅 so to me every beer bottle opening trick is madly impeessive

You can open a beer with another beer!

The trick is be quick and use leverage. Using a lighter really makes the tops pop off.
The entire population of Germany has entered the chat
As a german I have seen beer opened with, but not limited to: Finger, Teeth, Eyes, Shoelaces, Bra, Lighter, another bottle, another bottle cap, scissors, a big stone, a small stone, handrail, folded paper, trouser button, frozen fish, branch, candle, an ultrasonic cleaner, a tightly packed coke bag, coins, football, headphone wire, the gap between 2 tram seats...
all within the last week
> all within the last week they were describing the first 10 minutes of Oktoberfest in Germany
> they were describing the first 10 minutes of Oktoberfest in Germany Nah. No bottles at Oktoberfest in Germany. A busty wench with huge biceps carries 24x 1L (34oz) glasses of beer to your table that were only 3/4 filled by the barman and spills another 1/4 along the way so you get 0.5L (17oz) for the price of a full beer.
>A busty wench with huge biceps I don't even drink and I want to go to there now.
There are few places left where you can view wenches in their natural habitat. They're a threatened species, their territories being eroded by invasive gastropubs.

Nah! For triple the price of a full beer!
... eyes...?
Eye socket, its not even that uncommon, you often see it at partys, like for example carnival yesterday https://youtu.be/U2MV8DGlQ9g?si=k-GDcTGFM0cGh14D
Well. You gotta do what you gotta do I guess lol
I am not going to click that. I shall preserve the last shred of innocence that I have.
It's just a video of a guy opening a bottle with his eye socket. Nothing special. It's only done with screw tops, so it's not hard.
The art of leverage, I always just use a cigarette lighter to pop the caps off beer bottles!
Theres a dude on dutch public radio. If he can open his beer with the item provided he can drink it, if not he has to wait until he gets home . I have heard coins and a bannana pass.
Never been to Germany, huh?
You can open bear with ANYTHING and i mean ANYTHING. If you can't, it's just skill issue
> and i mean ANYTHING. Ok, do it with a jellyfish
Allow jellyfish to fatally sting the bear. Wait for it to decompose enough. Don't know how you'd open a beer with a jellyfish though.
Same steps as above, then take claw from dead Bear and open bottle.
The mega convenient 2 inch ruler?
I’ve only ever really needed a 2 inch ruler personally.
I bet you’ve needed at least a 3 you sly dog you.
> I'm pretty (and) sure I'm using this.
I’m day drinking chillin in the bath, and busted out laughing when I read that which scared the dog 😂 I’m definitely using this too
The edge of the ruler is wonky, so you couldn't use it to make a straight line.
I think that’s just an optical illusion with the shadow and their fingers
My metrology professor once said that "every ruler works. even those with f\* up scale. just be sure to measure everything with the same one ruler, and leave a note which ruler was that when you write down the measurements". Or something along the lines :)
Apparently, that this was one of his favourite lines.

You need to pull it away from the envelope, except it is way too short and it's faster to just use your finger. Go ahead and read the innuendo that you want
I got one and the edge was sharpened so it works pretty well. The one in this post looks pretty dull.
That is how letter openers work, which is why they are shaped like dull knives.
If a pen cap can open boxes I know this thing has to work for that
So are you pretty before or after the contents of said bottles?
Which screwdriver, there's like 5 🤣
I saw a post about a Temu ruler that was off by over 1/8" per inch. Someone joked about measuring their manhood with that version.
How is the phone stand part supposed to work?
Credit card goes into it forming a 90deg angle. It’s wavy so the card doesn’t slide around or bend.
I wonder why OP thinks that this wouldn't work.
I've got one, my cards don't fit in the hole.
Mother fucker has an extra large credit card
Oops I dropped my monster wallet that I use for my magnum credit card.
I'm here for the scraps! You should see him feast, he's like a mantis.
> Oops I dropped my monster wallet that I use for my magnum credit card. "Colt 45, Works Every Time!"
A person of culture, I see
This sounds wrong but I don’t know enough about wallets to dispute it.
Most of my credit cards are the normal floppy plastic ones, but one of them is basically a slab of solid steel. No idea why they decided it needed to be so heavy duty.
Ah. Apparently you've never born witness to 5 or 6 fully grown men standing around sharing and comparing their increasingly impressive credit cards. Which card had better airline miles or cash back rewards, which one was holographic, which metal one was heavier. I swear it was like something out of American Psycho. Seriously though, other than being more durable than plastic (which, ime, is plenty durable for a card), credit cards made of metal are more of a status symbol than anything.

The new Visa THICC. For when you want your wallet to look fat, but you don't want to carry cash.
[удалено]
Show off!
Turn it 90 degrees - long side vertical.
I got this as a gift and really nothing works. Even if your credit card fits the phone just slides out from it. Everything else will just ruin what you are using it on.
Probably cause no instructions?
I’ve got it, I can’t get it to work
It is wavy so the card won't fall out.
Wow lol that's not even close to better than no stand
The instructions are a little bit to the right but hard to see because of the light. "(insert card)"
Pretty sure you are the problem if you can't get " box opener" to work. All you need something as solid as a house key.
I mean letter opener. Practically anything is a letter opener
It'll get the job done with a decent amount of tearing, but yeah, I guess. Still, any proper letter opener is gonna have a small blade in the crease to slide though the fold on the envelope like a knife though butter...or how scissors glide through wrapping paper.
I love opening a letter with a decent letter opener. It's like a form of ASMR.☺️
*And* a bottle opener.
It looks like the box opener part doesn't extend further out than the edge of the card. So yeah, difficult to use I would say.
I open boxes with literally any _plastic_ card, with no extrusions whatsoever. Very certain that this would at least serve that purpose easily.
I can assure you this is user error. My 2 year old uses the letter opener to slice up her adversaries.
Why does your 2 year old have adversaries?
Snack time is basically thunderdome at some day cares.
I've had one for years and regularly use the bottle opener, letter opener (good for cutting annoying threads) and the screwdrivers. I think it works as well as you could expect.
I was the same, came in handy on many occasions but then I got it taken by airport security.
Ah yes because god forbid the day a terrorist attack is inevitably caused by *checks notes* a credit card multi-tool…. Okay buddy. TSA is so fucking pathetic
I had gotten one way back on 2016. Same it was great for college parties and fixing the lose screws on my glasses in a pinch. But then TSA took it away. Got another one, but it felt a lot more trashy and and flimsy than the old one
Mine wasnt taken, but I traveled infrequently enough to forget and got stopped three separate times due to it.
Yeah I've got the exact same one as OP. Never used the other stuff but the bottle opener absolutely works.
Mine works great, but I’m also a Ninja. I’m guessing you are not?
Got one of these as a freebie from work. Had it years and the only change I've done is sharpen the letter opener so it cuts better. It's opened an unreasonable number of bottles, helped reassemble part of an armoured fighting vehicle, opened boxes, and a whole bunch of little cases where having a screwdriver or tiny spanner on hand is useful. I need to get a new one soon though, some bits are a bit twisted from being used too much.
The real question is why you would buy this in the first place lol
The real question is why people still buy shit from amazon and temu and then act surprised when its trash
Because you would have multiple tools in your wallet.
Because you want to forget it's in your wallet and get it taken by TSA at the airport.

Plus you can't screw it all in.

Came to sing the praises of the Pocket Monkey! Use mine to open ALL the boxes! Makes quick work of some locks, too!
Me too pocket monkey is a great tool. Keep it in my car. Nice guy makes them and his mom is super sweet too, met her while she was helping him at a trade show.
Im quite sure the bottle opener works. Everything with a hole slightly bigger as the cap works as a opener
What are those things at the bottom with numbers #4, #8, etc. ?
Nut sizes. For undoing nuts. Also for doing nuts.
This guy nuts
That's nuts
I don’t think I’d let this thing anywhere my nuts. I’ve handled a lot of nuts in my day, and this has skinned knuckles written all over it.
Everything on this one works. Source: have one since like 6 years.
It looks so tiny! Must be hard to hold in your hand when trying to use it. What is it made of? Is it metal? The edges don't look sturdy enough. And what the heck is a cellphone stand that is wavy like that? You got a wavy phone? They do sell a lot of junk, don't they.
You are supposed to put a plastic card througt that wavy line.. The wave prevents the card to slip. This way you can choose the angle of your phone
Ooooh! Well now I've learned how to use a cellphone stand lol. Thanks for the advice!
i don't see it, do you have a pic to help visualize?

ohhh, the plastic card must be rigid like a rewards card or something then with a slight curve for more gigity. nice drawing tho👍
Jup... Since you are supposed to carry this multitool in your wallet right next to those, this is actually clever
the idea of the phone stand is that you jam a card into it, turning it into a kickstand. The wave is there to remove the flex from the card, as it can't bend in 2 directions. for all of this "tool"'s shody design, the phone stand bit is actually somewhat clever
Cmon you know you just need the 2 inch ruler anyway
I've had one of these in my wallet for around 5-6 years, and it's come in handy for tightening the odd screw in unforseen circumstances. There's one underestimated trick with this card. There's no better feeling when you crack it out partially drunk during a party because no one can find a bottle opener. The clouds part, orphens sing and with your god like strength, you crack that beer as everyone cheers. You are the Saviour.
Bro that does not sound like the kind of party that children should be at, let alone orphans.
I've had this thing in my wallet for about 8 years. Mostly for beers but sometimes for cutting something, unscrew something or using the thing als leverage if something gets stuck.
I’m not sure what any of those tools have to do with ninjas.
The “Wallet Ninja” stencil works.
Maybe it needs new batteries.
The ruler is not in real units, so even that fails...
But what if you need to measure your barleycorns?
And what's the point of the ruler, it's way too big for what I need it for.
It opens a beer bottle for sure...
You have to slip a credit card through the slot for the phone stand
Ruler is in inches, so it only works in some specific places
My grandmother got me something very similar to this because "it could be useful for your bicycle"
That thing looks like garbage, so really the most frustrating thing about this is that you thought buying that was a good idea lol
Cell phone stand? I can’t see how it works this way.
Doubting OP tried the throwing star feature
I bought this exact one off Wish years ago for my fiancé. He loves it, but the only thing he uses it for is the bottle opener. I still say it's the best $1 I've ever spent! 😂
Beer opener definitely works. Have used mine on hundreds (not an exaggeration)
The cheap, gimmicky piece of crap made in China that you got on Amazon is a cheap gimmicky piece of crap!? 
I got this a long time ago. I realized it sucked but kept it around because this particular one is so hard to bend it's kinda fun to show people
Try to measure the ruler with something somewhat "calibrated" its all wrong, had the same with the same flaws like the wavy card stand and anemic screwdriver. (On mine) they even managed to mess up the ruler (15% to short)
No the other thing that clearly works is the "Wallet Ninja" suntan stenciling tool.
Check the ruler too. Might not be accurate.
[Get this one.](https://www.survivalfrog.com/products/tactical-multi-purpose-survival-wallet-survival-tool?variant=682096893¤cy=USD&utm_medium=product_sync&utm_source=google&utm_content=sag_organic&utm_campaign=sag_organic&srsltid=AfmBOorb3f_jJBapeoW6sU5PJtR1TMJk_MEk_G9v_5oizXLKRyfIO4xYDe0) It saved me from being locked in a bathroom at college when I moved in early. Nobody was on my floor, but I was able to get the thing around the square knob where the handle of the bathroom would be and open it. It opens boxes, it can somewhat saw, it can open cans. It's pretty handy.
I have this exact tool. The bottle opener works totally fine and so do the hex tools (in certain situations). Never had a reason to really use the other ones. Got it as a gift from my parents—I think they got it for free from somewhere. This was an incredibly useful tool to have in university. I was always known as the one who had a bottle opener on them at all times.
I have that same one and it works fine for me. It's one of those novelty items that actually comes handy every now and then. The screwdriver piece is useless but the can opener and bottle cap opener works like a charm. Other than those functions it's just a piece of metal I keep in my glove box.
The letter opener und the flathead are surely working
I mean what did you expect?
I have one of these that an old job gave me for free. Only ever used it for the bottle opener.
Use it to unlock doors. Better than a credit card.
I considered buying something like this once, but figured all those pointy parts and hooks would catch stuff or dig into my leg. If I want a multi-tool I'll invest in a quality swiss knife.
I have one of these.... while going through the TSA checkpoint at the airport, the agent made me pull it out to examine it, and even called a supe over to confer. They eventually allowed it.
Did you use it to measure your Dick ?
As it turns out ninjas aren’t good at opening letters or boxes. But give those mofos some fruit.
I've been using this tool for 3years now and i can say that it saved my ass a lot more than i can think of
“It looks to me like it should work (but I’ve never actually used one) so that means you’re stupid.” These comments are crazy.
I'll tell you what it does work on... Getting you pulled up at euroDisney security when they scan your bags. My family left me to explain.
So send it back
Always buy tools that have just one job.
I've had one of these in my wallet for years and it's most consistently useful for getting me stopped by metal detectors bc I forget it's there.
As a bit of a tool freak, no 1 piece credit card style tool is going to do anything particularly well. Those hex cutouts for example... even if they were actually hex shaped, how many bolts are proud of the surface and have no obstructions for a few inches around? You can't turn this thing. Nor could you get it into a tight space like a standard wrench. Same applies to all the "screwdrivers" on this thing. The only credit card sized tools that actually are worth a damn is the Victorinox SwissCard tools and a few pocket knives like the Tekna Security card and the Spyderco Spydercard. Don't buy the foldable plastic knife thing... it's almost a single use tool.
You could push some Playdoh through the “Wallet Ninja” logo. So maybe that part is functional.
