Baton Q4 vs Ranger 55 Grip

2 tools, measured the same way from the same sources. 6 of 24 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
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 4 g over the other; it carries 2 more tools than the other.
Verdicts are built from the measured fields only. They are conditional by design: which tool wins depends on what you are carrying it for.
