So i found this little USB charger at an Ace Hardware last year.

And i just noticed the brand name and checked out the website.

http://www.trueutility.com/collections/all-products/

This UK brand has a ton of awesome looking little gadgets. Itty bitty flashlights (as little as 5 grams), three kinds of scissors, multi-tools, nail clippers, a Baledeo-style knife among others, and a brilliant wine key design. And i believe they package all of their tools in a mini dry box, which could be a bonus.

Does anybody have any experience with products from this company? I’m interested in the nail clippers mostly.

I have the Telepen and the Fire Stash.  Fire Stash is a little heavy for what it is, essentially a tiny waterproof lighter, but keeping it keychain style with a Photon Freedom, Classic SAK, and whistle  it has been handy in a pocket when my other lighter was buried in my cook kit in my pack.  The Telepen has been handy, as it takes up little room, although nowadays I tend to write notes to myself on my smartphone rather than worry about paper and pen. Never tried the clippers.
