Victorinox Cybertool 34 Been wanting a Tool with a bit holder. Nice!
I like bit drivers on multitools. Sometimes, the bits I mess with (T27, well nearly all Torx) aren't covered by the average multitool loadout, and I avoid Leatherman's bits and tools with bit drivers as they are two-dimensional and soft.
The CT line is more, or less, designed for work with computer; but it does have both Phillips #1 and #2. There is a second set of bits you can find (and I think it's easier in Europe) originally made for a version of the CT34 made for Beretta that is centered around handgun maintenance. Victorinox is still making them and selling them as replacements, as the XAVT has a second bit driver loaded with the Beretta bits. I have two computers that I plan to replace and upgrade the RAM on; one of them has to have the DVD drive taken out to access the sticks of RAM, and I know that's at least one of the Torx on the CT; and the case on my older PC uses Phillips (and the sticks of RAM I can actually see looking into the vent on the case; only the side of the case has to be taken off to access the RAM. But the CT41/CT L on the other hand, it's like the SwissChamp without all the silly stuff like the fish scaler and the added versatility of the CyberTool layer. If they weren't $150, I'd have had one by now. I think I paid around $30 for my CT34 used. The CT29 is like the Spartan, but adds the CT layer. Pretty slim for its functionality.
Gerber has a new tool that is SAK-sized, called the "Armbar Driver" with a 1/4 driver instead of the roughly 3/8 on the CT. Problem is that it has a known issue that has yet to be fixed--there is almsot no spring tension on the tools. I was actually gonna get one myself becaue of the 1/4 driver; but not until the problems with the design are remedied.
Well thanks for the insight Cody! I'll have to read this a couple of times to soak up all that input.

Chris i woke last night to the sound of thunder
how far off i sat and wondered
started humming a song from nineteen sixty two
aint it funny how the night moves
