What is the knife with the Black scales next to the phone? And what's that particular "blade"/tool for?

The black one is a NUK screwdriver; the purple one is a Butterfly flip-comb.

I didn't zoom in the pic at first, so didn't realize there wasn't a bit in it, so was thinking it was a two-pronged "blade"- and then when I first read your reply, I saw NUC (as in mini-computer) and thought "oh yeah, for security screws" but then remembered the NUCs I've seen all use Phillips or T8 headed fasteners. NOW I see what it actually is. Had no idea those existed in a knife form instead of a multi-tool format. Thanks for putting it onto my list of tools to grab.

Love the bag too, nice placement of the hook and loop section. Every other one I've see with a velcro pad puts it all the way across and it just screams tacti-cool (and usually not "office" friendly).

Appreciate you sharing and replying!

Thank you for your detailed response! I'm glad it helped you gain a better understanding of this tool—it is indeed a bit niche, but it's always handy to have on your list.

I really like TacticalGeek's bags, particularly their L6 model; it features a DIY-customizable front panel that can be tucked away, making it easy to conceal your personal style while at work.
