Gerber Ups the Size of the Wildly Popular Gerber Shard with an XL Version
 

The Gerber Shard is one of my favorite keychain-compatible multi-tools, with seven features but a size that makes it ideal for carrying in my pocket.

Now, Gerber is back with the Shard XL, a larger and heavier-duty variant. At 4 inches long, it feels tougher and more solid in your hands, and is strong enough to be used on any job site.

In addition to a pry bar, you also get a wire stripper, bottle opener, nail puller, and both a small and large flathead screwdriver. The deep carry pocket clip makes it easy to keep close at hand in your pocket, EDC pouch, or work belt, but it’s also got a lanyard hole so you can wear it around your neck or add it onto a keychain.

Made of stainless steel with a Micarta handle, it’s as tough as it is versatile—and backed by a lifetime warranty to prove it.
