I carry a small dedicated keychain flashlight that is very powerful for it's size (RovyVon. I like the manager because you can still carry either a toothpick or tweezers in addition to the pen. You also get a phillips driver with a cap lifter.

hmm. the corkscrew really limits your options here more than anything else. If you decide to go for the spartan i really like the one with wooden scales https://www.amazon.com/Victorinox-Spartan-Wood-Walnut-Pocket/dp/B07B8G21GL/ref=sr_1_95?keywords=swiss+army+knife&qid=1657638901&sr=8-95 (no toothpick or tweezers).

yup, I've used this professionally for years:

same idea, but the wire knick is on the blade of the scissors, just pinch it with a thumb, and pull

for doing 50 to 1000 wires, it's probably the fastest way, once you get good at it

It depends on the strength and the composition of the material. There are electro magnetic ones that are stronger. I have a static one on my work bench that works pretty well but I haven’t tried it on a but driver, mostly use it for tweezers and actual bits. There’s a lot behind the physics but my understanding is that it stays magnetized until it encounters a field that demagnetizes it. At least my tools are usually still magnetized when I come back to the bench. If you’re walking around with a tool in your pocket I’d imagine it would need to be relevant magnetized more frequently as you may pass electromagnetic fields in your day to day movements. I use this one, you could keep it in your backpack if needed, it’s small and light.

>P-7 suspension clip?

I haven't tried those but I do have several of the Keysmart version & absolutely love them.
They are also about $5-7 ea; way cheaper than the P7.

KeySmart Nano Clip

Keysmart makes nice stuff, IMO.

I did snag Tec's teeny Ti Tape Measure + am absolutely enamored with that, tho. :-)

Link if you for some reason wanna look at this monstrosity: https://www.amazon.com/Victorinox-1-6795-XAVT-Swiss-Swisschamp-Pocket/dp/B000JC19FE/ref=sr_1_15?dchild=1&keywords=swiss+army+knife&qid=1620690572&sr=8-15

The Evogrip14 is almost identical to the climber. 85mm vs. 91mm in size. The small knife is replaced with a nail file.

Just a suggestion. Peace.

I think Amazon is doing them for £29.99 currently in the UK, hope this helps

Here is a link on the screws https://www.amazon.com/Torx-Screws-Countersunk-Head-100-piece/dp/B01DDN6XJC you can easily find the other part on etsy here https://www.etsy.com/listing/727619812/3-mm-118-mm-pivot-barrels-no-screws

Unfortunately, they are. . Maybe they changed it recently? I don’t think it would have ever rose to popularity if it has always been like this

Honestly, there are very few models with what you want. Your best bet is to get a Huntsman or Fieldmaster, add plus scales to get the pen, and grab a cheap fresnel. https://www.amazon.com/PREMIUM-Fresnel-Pocket-Wallet-Credit/dp/B079VV8CM2/ref=mp_s_a_1_6?dchild=1&keywords=Fresnel+lens&qid=1596994930&sr=8-6

I bought a similar length here: Amazon. They appear to be sold out now, but it looks like it's available direct from the manufacturer: Survivorcord.
