History: Multi Function Utility Lighter
Preview of version: 7
||
|:
The pliers function of this tool is rather unremarkable. The pliers are made out of aluminum, and the fact that it has a "wire cutter" section is almost laughable, Despite the useless wire cutters, the scissors, file, and knife blade seem to be straightforward enough. But what really sets the MFUL apart is the fact that its handle houses a fully functional butane lighter! How many pliers based tools have you seen that can do that? (-:
Finish is chrome, highly polished to a mirror finish. An inch and metric scale are cast into one side.
There are no markings or logo whatsoever, just a safety warning decal in regards to the lighter.
