Mini Sailor Pliers Lite vs Baton Q1

2 tools, measured the same way from the same sources. 3 of 15 rows read the same on all of them; the ones that differ are what follows. A rust value is the better one in that row, grey is the worse, and a dash means we have not verified the field rather than that the tool lacks it.

Verdict
Buy if it saves 1 g over the other; it carries 6 more tools than the other, and it works out at $2.00 per tool.
Nothing in the measured fields separates it from the other. Pick on feel, or on a tool the other has and it does not.
Verdicts are built from the measured fields only. They are conditional by design: which tool wins depends on what you are carrying it for.
