Leatherman Surge, nylon sheath
To continue with the bit 'theme': there is another multi-tool that excels in this department. The Gerber Center-Drive! It is remarkable to see that each brand has its own approach. Gerber decided to attach an arm to the multi-tool that contains the bit. Just like with the SOG this bit is kept in place with a magnet. Because this arm locks when opened you can easily continue your work. Even tightening screws in narrow corners is a piece of cake because of this arm. However, this is not the only thing that makes the Center-Drive so unique. With the sliding mechanism you can easily one-handedly slide the head of the multi-tool from the handle. As such you can even get the job done with one hand.

The SOG PowerPlay, like the SwissTool Spirit XC, comes with a nylon belt sheath with a bit set. The tool missing, however, is the ratchet. SOG namely added this to the head of the multi-tool! When closed you can put the bit in a slot in the top part. A magnet keeps the bit in place to make sure it won't fall out during use. Incredibly clever!
