    Let's see...

    1. Philips head screw driver
    2. Flat head screw driver
    3. Glass breaker
    4. Wire stripper
    5. Pry bar
    6. Nail puller
    7. Bottle opener

    There's my guess on the 7 functions. My guess on the flat head screw driver is a little iffy looks like the pry bar end may or may not have a flat head on there. All I know is that I want one. #gerbershard

    @Snes: That is a good guess since they do often get the flat head in on the end of the pry bar.

    I've got almost the exact thing but it has an x-acto blade on it. Won't let me take that on a plane. #gerbershard

    Let's see:
    I can get through security with a pen.
    I can write things with a pen.
    I can shank the stewardess with a pen.
    I can blind defenders by stabbing their eyeballs out with a pen.

    TSA doesn't care if I have 1 pen or 50 pens.

    I can strangle someone with a cat5 cable.
    I can subdue folk with zip ties.
    I can carry an LED flashlight bright enough to blind people that doubles as a fist pack.
    I can put that same flashlight in a sock to use as a sap.

    Please don't get me started on how ridiculous this thing is along with TSA's rules for our safety. #gerbershard
