It is exactly what it says it would be, works perfectly and fits exactly but I feel it’s hard to use because the grip part is hard, it feels uncomfortable on the hand and makes it difficult to apply pressure if need it.

I picked this up to be included in a simple save-a-dive kit, as it seemed to have pretty much all of the tool types one might need in a pinch. It's well made and the various hex-tips and pseudo-wrenches are well sized. The downside - and hence only a 3 star rating is that it's small in the hand, so getting leverage on a fitting that's a little more stuck than you'd like can be a challenge. As an example, I simply couldn't get a good grip using the 1/4" Allen head to apply enough leverage to remove a stuck din/yoke adapter from the valve. So, it's got its utility in a kit, but may not work for all needs, even if the tool is the right one for the task. Happy and safe diving, folks!

Don't let a loose hose fitting or valve hand wheel blow an O-ring, or not allow proper valve function to ruin a dive. Not having the proper tools and parts to fix problems can do just that! The serious diver is always prepared to nip a dive aborting problem. That's just two scenarios that this Star Tool can remedy. You ever see non-stainless-steel tools when they have been exposed to salt water environments? Not a pretty sight. It also looks bad when you pull out your rusted open-end steel 9/16" x 11/16" to remove or replace a standard 9/16" or high-flow 11/16" second-stage hose. Many of the new low-profile designed hose fittings may not even allow you to use a standard wrench.
The XS Scuba's Star Tool also has a 1/2" and a 5/8" wrench, most common hex wrenches 5/32", 3/16" & 1/4" and a valve hand wheel driver. designed for imperial sized products (not metric) this compact sized width 3.85" x 0.5" (9.8cm x 1.3cm) thick (approximately), stainless-steel constructed with silicone over-mold handle tool can be handy when you need it. The Star Tool is a must for a save-a-dive-kit and makes a great gift for that diving significant other or friend.
