Which gadget makes your life better?

For me, it's a bidet toilet seat. I bought one that didn't really fit as well as I hoped, so now I am shopping for a v2 based on experience. I don't want to live without one going forward. That's for sure.

A pocket knife. Carried one for most of my life at this point.

Also an all metal pen. I always have a writing utensil with me that rugged enough to last years in my pocket.

See you over at c/EDC

How does a pocket knife make your life better?

Opening boxes, cutting zip ties, picking stuff from under my fingernails, splinters, etc. All kinds of uses.

Not necessarily better but safer I suppose. I've been thinking of getting one aswell.

Oh yes, then I agree. I too hide a well made box cutter in my travel bag and car at all times.
