Verdict
Buy if it works out at $4.41 per tool.
Buy if it saves 11 g over the other; it carries 1 more tool than the other, and it is the cheaper of the two at $57.95, and it works out at $3.22 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.
