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 15 g over the other; it is the cheaper of the two at $89.95, and it works out at $4.28 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.
