This is a really solid product. It's like the Swiss army knife of percussion utilities. Screwdrivers for hardware maintenance, small knife for opening gear, bottle opener for recational use, and most importantly a monster of a drum key. I wish the drum key was smaller so that way it wouldn't be so bulky, but bigger is better, right?
This is the best high-tension/utility tool I have ever bought. Ever. Only one Philips and flat screw driver, one very small knife (which is perfect size for cutting into boxes of new mallets or instruments. Very low risk of cutting something important). The drum key locks at the 90 degree angle in the picture for solid turning.
I already have one of these and wanted another for my gig bag. Good multi-tool with weight. Keep one in your bag as a multi-tool.
The Evans utility key was to me amazement a very nice drum key. It was able to tune me marching drum with no struggle at all, and even was delightful to use on many concert instruments. Some flaws that I would like to point out and wish the Evans company would have taken into account before manufacturing this product, include the loose fitting drum key head, the bulkyness of the drum key shaft, and the looseness of the entire key. I had no problems with the orther accesotries such as the screw driver, but a few things I did have a problem with. The shaft of the key was a square shape which made it difficult at time to turn the key on a marching rim because it was to close that it almost touches the rim. Second, the actually drum key head fits much to loosely on the lugs that I'm afraid the head might be too large for drum lugs. And third, when I received the item, I was supprised to see that the key rattles around alot and doesn't sit together tightly. But overall it was a good drum key, just be aware for all you kids still in school who purchase or are considering purchasing this item, it does look kind of like a pocket knife, especially when its in its holster, and I does have a knife, which could get you in a great deal of trouble at your school, so be aware of what you're buying.
This beefy mega-tool can handle any torque you can muscle up. With its great fold away connivance and its multi tool design, going from tuning your drum to fixing hardware is a breeze. With a classy belt holster the roadie is ready for any drummer request.
