Favourite tool/device?

My modern penknife is always with me. Carry it everywhere.

I have Lidl's Parkside version of the angle finder and it's a handy thing to have for not much money ?
My M300 lathe has got to be my favourite, a day spent operating it is like a day on holiday !
Unfortunately, my most necessary device is my Led Lenser H7R head torch, the old glimmers aren't as good as they used to be, so my Mother was right !

...and don't forget, as Tubal Cain says on YouTube, "He who dies with the most tools, wins !"
 
Leatherman wave multitool.
Expensive for a penknife, but bought in USA for cheaper, and it has a lifetime guarantee. Been sent off a couple of times for a replacement blade and service etc.

Yes used to have one of these tools when going skiing don’t know what happened to it think it ran away.☹️☹️
 
Why do you use it e everyday? Is you life a mess or don't you just have enough to do?
No my life isn’t a mess thank you very much.

I find it a handy kit to have in my pocket. Snipping a piece of string, slitting open a parcel, cutting the twisted end off a hose pipe, removing a splinter etc. (the list could go on). Saves running back and forth to find a tool for the little everyday jobs that crop up. I guess that means I have plenty to do and don’t like running around when I don’t need to. I suppose some people like to fill their day pottering back and forth pointlessly but not me.

I would have put a "just joking" emoji on my post but for some reason the app on my tablet doesn't allow me :-)

Does yours have the locking knife blade?

I brought one in the US -of- A but can't take it anywhere as the locking blade makes it illegal to carry.

Gutted as the non-lock versions don't appear to be of the same quality.
 
As a newly qualified electrician I wired the new house of the MD of Footprint tools in a posh part of Sheffield.
Only the dining room had a ceiling light, every other room had only wall lights.
This was about 1970 and I still have a pair, they will last a lifetime but they are a bit roughView attachment 641858
Inherited a few sets of Footprint off my old man.
Legendary bits of kit. I have 18" version as well. Beats stlli's any day.
 
Makita impact driver and digital vernier calipers, and I could go on . . .

Yes, locking. Bought in uk also and that was locking.
I thought the blade had to be a certain size to make it a naughty knife?
Never had problems... 🗡️😎
