The device is outfitted with a 2.5-inch 3CR13 steel [folding knife](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cuttix) that features a satin blade that will come in handy for completing small tasks throughout the day or on the campsite. A [carabiner clip](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pivot-x-carabiner) on the end allows the accessory to be stored on a backpack or bag to keep in on hand at all times. The MTech credit card multitool is rounded off with a bottle opener and two screwdriver heads on the corners for making small adjustments. The anodized aluminum plate body of the unit provides rigid durability that's also comfortable to use. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.5/10 - Popularity: 77% | Activity: 49% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Multifunctional Credit Card Tools:** Designing compact multitools with multiple functions to meet consumer demand for practicality, convenience, and versatility - **Pocket-sized Everyday Tools:** Manufacturing easily storable tools of any size with everyday function to improve consumers' preparedness - **Smartphone-compatible Tools and Gadgets:** Innovating credit card sized tools with smart capabilities compatible with smartphones to assist with a range of functions from measuring to cooking ### Where This Applies - **Consumer Goods:** Developing and marketing a collection of credit-card-sized tools with stylish aesthetics and diverse functions to match diverse customer preferences - **Outdoor and Camping:** Manufacturing sturdy and durable credit card multitools with specialized functionalities specifically designed for outdoor activities - **Technology and Home Improvement Retailers:** Partnering with credit card multi-tool companies to produce and sell high-tech, multifunctional home and personal gadgets that can improve convenience and inspiration ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Minimalist Titanium Multi-Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wesn.md) - [Tracker-Friendly Carabiner Multitools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/atech-airtag-multitool.md) - [Card-Sized EDC Tool Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grim-workshop-sere-cards.md) - [Titanium Key-Inspired Multitools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/edc-monster-keymaster.md) - [Miniscule Titanium Multitools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miniscule-titanium-multitools.md) - [Smartphone-Holding Titanium Multitools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/acestand.md) - [Pocket-Ready Multitool Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gerber-prybrid.md) - [Modular Micro Multitools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pill-multitool.md) - [10-in-One Tracker-Friendly Multitools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/airtag-multitool.md)
