Nothing in the measured fields separates it from the other. Pick on feel, or on a tool the other has and it does not.
Buy if it saves 3 g over the other; it works out at $7.89 per tool.
Verdicts are built from the measured fields only. They are conditional by design:
which tool wins depends on what you are carrying it for.
