Compact Multi Tool

~$8

A compact multi-tool is one of the most-grabbed items in any stagehand's kit. This one covers the basics — pliers, blade, screwdrivers, file — in a form factor that fits in a cargo pocket or belt pouch. On a load-in you'll reach for it when a case latch needs adjusting, a bolt needs snugging, or the gaff tape won't tear cleanly. At Temu pricing, it's also a good candidate for leaving in a gear bin without worrying about it walking off.
