21 Things You Can Do with a Mini Multitool Prybar | Gerber Shard | Everyday Carry

[@codyng1098]

Honestly great idea ! Many of the EDC youtubers tell you what to get but not how to implement the tools! This would be a super series !!

[@RonKwok]

THIS! I see it all the time and I'm glad you picked up on it. Sure, buy all the things, but when it comes time to use it appropriately and efficiently, could you? Glad you enjoyed this one, I appreciate it 🙌

[@Cowboy96]

If you need to be told how to use the tools you have clearly you didn't need them in the first place.

[@RonKwok]

It's true that excessive carry hurts more than helps, but I always advocate to learn more about the tools you have. I don't claim to be a master with any one tool, and I'm always open to learning new tricks with the same toolset.

[@SteezyG]

One time I was at a trampoline park and the locker was slammed shut and it bent the lock so it wouldn't close. I helped the kid out trying to fix it by using my Gerber Shard and bent it back. I've never felt more like a dad in my life.

[@RonKwok]

Dad powers activate! That's awesome man I"m glad you were able to get extra use out of your Shard. Feels good to be able to put your prep to use, doesn't it? Live with Purpose Steez!

[@omarkharnivall2439]

Best shard video, and im watching those sporadically for the past 7 years or so

[@RonKwok]

Thanks man I appreciate it! There are so many out there so I figured I needed to mix it up 👌

[@omarkharnivall2439]

Came back again after trying to find a Ti pry bar to carry around the beach, may get a shard once and for all 😂

[@MikeandIkes_EDC]

Just found this gem from 2 years ago. I have that tool. I need to use it more often

[@RonKwok]

It’s so cheap too for the utility it brings. But maybe you don’t need it haha #livewithpurpose

[@simonci5177]

@Ron Kwok To strip wire, you need to precut it first, by spinning around couple times to make a notch in plastic. Than pull like you was trying

[@RonKwok]

Thanks for the tip!! Def need practice there

[@JustSomeGuyLV]

I wanted to see how it performs prying up nails (1:23), thank you.

[@oiriri8289]

great edit!

[@rhysabul1401]

Are those SA profile keycaps?

[@RonKwok]

They are DSA profile caps, but good eye!

[@rhysabul1401]

@@RonKwok thanks, are they from key republic?

[@RonKwok]

Nah these are from the MiTo DSA Legacy set, I got 'em from Drop.com during a limited run. I'd check Drop, Novelkeys, and KBDFans periodically for new sets

[@iamsemjaza]

I think you have to spin it aroudn the wire so it slices down then pull it off.

[@RonKwok]

Thanks for the pointer, I'll have to give it a try. Cheers!

[@dalemagee8848]

That is correct.

[@verveblack]

which part cuts thread? have this shard but think it would pull on a thread too much before making the cut...

[@RonKwok]

It's the V-shaped groove at the head of the tool, same spot you would pry a nail from. I agree, there's a lot of situations where the thread might pull before it cuts and it's important to remember the shard is a super budget multi-tool that's kinda good at a lot of things, but not perfect for any one thing. Hope this helps!

[@RangerRick-xv4mo]

My p38 can opener does most those tasks. It makes a handy screwdriver and works on Philip’s heads too. It gets used a lot since it is on my keychain. Good video

[@RonKwok]

That's awesome! Making the most of that nifty little P38. Glad you enjoyed the vid!

[@craniumrex4614]

Great video. Excellent content well-delivered and edited. A pleasure to watch - and I watch a lot of videos!! Subscribed.

[@RonKwok]

Thanks a lot, I really appreciate the support!

[@coolioguppy]

Ayo loved the video! I’ve been considering this for a while as a part of my keychain but was wondering if it was too uncomfortable to have all the time inside of my pocket / on a carabiner on my waist? I’m afraid that it would poke me / stab into my side if I were to sit on it at the wrong angle

[@RonKwok]

Glad you enjoyed the vid! I personally keep it in my backpack as a part of a toolkit. Has a lot of uses and comes on clutch when you have it nearby. And honestly under $5 it's doesnt hurt to try. As far as keeping it in your pocket, it's doable but it isn't the most comfy tool to have against the leg, esp in a back pocket lol, hence the backpack carry. Hope this helps!

[@nickhowarth0]

Keep it up man!

[@RonKwok]

Thank you!

[@KrispyDips]

Bruh, this video was in my recommended and I gotta say the Thumbnail is just PERFECT!! So satisfying to look at haha.

[@RonKwok]

Haha thanks man! I snapped this photo and I knew it was the one 😂

[@kevinmiller7184]

Very entertaining approach Ron. I have now resolved to actually try to put my Shard to use.

[@RonKwok]

Glad you like it Kevin! Yea it's an underrated tool that comes in handy when you least expect it. Live with Purpose 🙌

[@iancpcspokane520]

What type of knot(s) are on the orange loop?

[@RonKwok]

It’s a sliding knot! Tie two of them on either end of a loop of paracord and you’ve got an adjustable bracelet or band!

[@eviloutionise]

I love the orange thing, what's it called and wheres it from?

[@RonKwok]

It’s just a strand of 550 paracord with a couple overhand knots! Made it myself 😉

[@strangebrew321]

dude you have to press down the wire with your thumb to the edge and rotate it until the insulation is cut all around before you scrape it to remove the insulation.

[@RonKwok]

Goddamnit LMAO thanks for the tip. I'll give it a shot 👌

[@Bishal692]

Its an amazing tool Ron🔥

[@XaeonBE]

Ok gonna start carrying mine again :P But I would like that same paracord around it :D again how did ya do it :D

[@RonKwok]

Definitely worth throwing in the daily bag 👌 the paracord is hi-viz orange from paracord planet on Amazon, and look up 'sliding knot bracelet' on Google for how to create your own 🙌

[@M7MD_4131]

did you re-upload the video? nice vid btw thx for all the quality of the videos.

[@RonKwok]

I did reupload, caught some stuff in the video I had to cut out 😬 glad you enjoyed the video!

[@cesarAugusto-lk8ux]

what is the brand of this prybar mini prybar?

[@RonKwok]

Gerber Shard!

[@jayskiv4125]

Inspired

[@RonKwok]

Thanks man!

[@coquibunny8797]

Back scratcher, zit popping 👍👏👋😂

[@Augen1337]

Really looking forward to the 10k subscriber special next year!

[@RonKwok]

That means a lot man, I'm quoting you on this!! Until then, Live with Purpose 🙌

[@solidus1995]

Feel like you're grasping at straws but still pretty entertaining video

[@RonKwok]

Gotta start getting creative after the first 10 lol Thanks for watching!

[@idontwannamakethishandle]

Good video but I know I would never ever use it, ha!

[@RonKwok]

I'm glad you've drawn that conclusion instead of wasting money on something you'll never use 👌 more power to you and thanks for watching 🙌

[@davidbakker-wester113]

also a great LEGO brick seperator.

[@roguerader]

A UFO landed the other day and tried to kidnap me, so I took my Gerber Shard and was able to dismantle their weapons in a whizz...

[@RonKwok]

Hard user!

[@jarrodthomas2332]

Who the fuck is gonna use it as a chair leg stabiliser 😂😂😂😂🥴

[@RonKwok]

Idk man chairs are dangerous sometimes 😂 I've literally used it on a wobbly table so who knows 🤷‍♂️

[@stopthesubversion2950]

I notice no one says can opener lol. Everyone including myself thinks a can opener is one of it's functions. Let me tell you it is one of the worst can openers unless you like mutilating can goods.

[@RonKwok]

Seems like it'd be a blunt instrument than a scalpel when it comes to canned goods 😂

[@jimster805]

22. take it on a date

[@RonKwok]

100% lol

[@scottyoung5351]

As far as strip and wires My suggestion is to1st if you have a lighter just burn the plastic and then strip it With the metal I know electricians that Do that all the time.

[@RonKwok]

Thanks for the tip! Makes sense, fire'll make the rubber that much softer or burn right off

[@mastertigerkid]

😂😂😂😂😂

[@elizabethsloan2153]

Survival type activities some of what you did was silly.

[@RonKwok]

Admittedly some of the things were meant to be humorous 😂 not a survivalist expert at all

[@bigmaranhas]

honestly, pocket prybars are the most useless tools of all

[@RonKwok]

Different people different needs
