Similar to the Pocket Monkey, the Mantis and Cricket don't look like a multi-tool. The tools which have more than 18 features between the two pieces, are small enough that you can easily clip them onto a keychain and never notice them.. Each has multiple functions like a screwdriver, nail puller, wire stripper, bottle openers, hex wrenches, scrapers and a pry bar. The Cricket is the smaller one at less than 2 inches in diameter, and the Mantis comes in at about 4 inches long.
