Sawyer Mini water filter. $20 Arguably the best lightweight backpacking filter available.
Also, the Leatherman Squirt is on my backpacking wishlist this year.

Leatherman PS4 Squirt <-- I have one of these, it's about the same size than a tube of chapstick.

Minituck holster is great. I hiked 10 miles in the White Mountains last weekend and hardly noticed this setup at all. Will most likely go with Crossbreed for future holsters. I can successfully tuck in a shirt around the gun if need be with this one. (I do not carry at work because my employer does not allow it)
So this is what I have with me usually when going to work. Which is a 1h journey by high speed train, crossing an international border.
Link to highres picture What addition would compliment this EDC?
I think this fits the sub 50$ mark OP is requesting.
If you're looking for something a little smaller at half that price, the Leatherman Squirt PS4 has a fair amount of functionality for a 2.5" folded keychain addition.
You could make a monkey's fist with some paracord and slide the key into the fifth pocket of your jeans. I carry a photon light, a leatherman squirt and a gerber shard on some aircraft cable and a carabiner. I just about something on my keychain besides my keys everyday
Also dont forget about the Leatherman Squirt PS4
I've been rocking my Leatherman Squirt as a daily carry for the past 3-4 years. I use it several times a week, maybe more. I believe they make two versions, one with pliers and one with scissors(?); I'd go with the pliers 99 out of 100 times... I also see they have a 25 year warranty - bonus!
The leatherman squirt is my vote:

You have to help us out with some details here. What do you like to do?
When you start carrying a keychain, having a small multitool can come in handy. I've also wanted to add a little flashlight to my lanyard.
That would be the Leatherman Squirt PS4.
Great small tool.
All 3 are amazing value and are altogether just over $100. :)
I'm an obsessive gear nerd, and I actually make and design gear for a living.
For your price range, this is bar none the most useful thing you could get him (assuming he likes to be useful himself.)

That gives me the following tools: camera, phone, flashlight (phone's LED flash - surprisingly bright), emergency phone charger, 8Gb USB stick / flash card, phone data cable (phone has an additional 32Gb microSD card), knife, file, wire stripper / cutter, pliers, philips / flathead screwdrivers, bottle opener, scissors, marker, corkscrew, fire starter, and keys.
I also generally carry my ID and debit card, not pictured.
I hear the Leatherman Squirt is pretty good.

This watch is a fun (for eight year olds), practical, and very affordable Christmas present. This costs more but looks pretty slick and is automatically set to atomic clocks via radio, which is pretty damn cool when you're eight.
This Leatherman is a little pricey for what it is but little boys love multi-tools, Leathermans are great multi-tools, and it comes with a pointless knife (as in, there's no sharp tip) that you install yourself, in case you don't trust your child with knives (I may or may not have a scar from using my Leatherman Micra in a really stupid way when I was 10) or your kid will definitely take it everywhere, including their school which has a zero-tolerance/thought policy on pointy objects. (If you have no problems with knives, the Squirt would be my first choice for a mini-multitool.)
This book is pricey for a single book but I had the old version as a kid and it's still one of my all time favorite books. Highly recommend, for a kid interested in technology.
Leatherman Squirt?
As much as I hate to say it get a multi-tool and do it before move in day. If you have a screwdriver, small knife, and a bottle opener the very first week you will meet more girls than you would believe.
Take it everywhere you can class/party/library. I would go for the Leatherman 10/10 times.
https://www.amazon.com/Leatherman-Squirt%C2%AE-PS4-Multi-Tool-Black/dp/B0032Y2OT6/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1468813697&amp;sr=8-9&amp;keywords=leatherman
I'd go blue will be a lot less "scary" to the ladies.
Well then, I should have recommended the Leatherman Squirt PS4. It cuts, it clamps, it files, it turns screws. It fits on your keychain AND has a bottle opener. It's a bit more expensive but a LOT more versatile!
It's only as long as a key (but about three-four key widths thick). Still small enough to disappear into a change pocket in your favorite jeans, or fits neatly onto your typical lanyard.
I love the shit outta mine, and it's a crafty little bugger!
At first glance...
Check out this NatureHike sleeping bag. 24oz's and is great for summer camping. It's good down to maybe 50-55 degrees, but will cut 1.5lb from your pack during the warmer months.
Leatherman and a folding knife? Why? Check out a leatherman squirt at 1.9 oz. I've got one and I love it. This would remove nearly 12oz.
That hammock is heavy. I DIY'd one for $35 and it only weighs 7.5oz. Or, pick up a dutch hammock for 7.3oz (though, this is a little more expensive at $42). This would save another 12oz.
These three would save 48oz or a full 3 lbs!
B) Leatherman Squirt PS4, motherfucker (or the Leatherman Style PS if you fly often like me)
Slim wallet and keys w/ multitool in left pocket, cellphone in right pocket. Accomplishes the same thing without looking like a NEET.
[Has gone up $7 since I bought it] (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0032Y2OT6/ref=od_aui_detailpages00?ie=UTF8&amp;psc=1)
I edc this instead by my keys: http://smile.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0032Y2OT6/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1449205058&amp;sr=8-1&amp;pi=SY200_QL40&amp;keywords=leatherman+squirt+ps4&amp;dpPl=1&amp;dpID=41cZaye7dlL&amp;ref=plSrch
I used to carry a bottle opener on my keychain, but it eventually got replaced with Leatherman Squirt. It's bit trickier to open the bottle, because the opener is quite small, but in exchange I get an awesome pocket tool.
Or, for the lightest keychain, learn to open the bottle with any hard object like a BIC lighter.
I know it's not technically a knife, but I always carry around my Leatherman Squirt and it's been handy as hell for as long as I've had it.
I have the PS, the one with the pliers. It's pretty great. I use it at work for light system admin duties. I use the pliers to pull plugs, screwdriver to help unrack servers, scissors to cut cable ties, and the bottle opener to pop a brew afterwards. Can't say I've found much use for the nail file or tweezers.
Good little keychain tool for EDC, but it drops down to $15 regularly. From what I've read, the Leatherman Squirt PS4 and Skeletool CX are two other good options for EDC if you're looking for a pliers + blade/scissors combo.
Check out the Leatherman Squirt PS4 too for a smaller version
Edit: If anyone is curious, everything looks pretty much the same after three years except the Squirt's anodizing is a little chipped up. Black leather dye, Lexol leather conditioner, and polishing compound helps to maintain the shiny look. Also maybe don't put your Benchmade in the washer/dryer - that is hard on the bead blast finishing and also really aggravating when you realize it is not just a metal button from your jeans making the noise.
If you want a larger knife, I'd recommend the Mora FireKnife (94 g), but most people here say larger knives are wasted weight.
Most experienced hikers recommend a multitool. My choices are the classic SAK with aluminum scales (15 g), or a Leatherman Squirt PS4. The Squirt has pliers *AND* scissors, but is considerably heavier (56.4 g), so if you don't want pliers go with the Swiss Army.
Utility key sucks. Only decent tool on is the micro phillips.

>n a lightheart, AGG, or helium). Have also thought about downsizing my knife to a swiss army knife or similar.
Personally like having pliers for gear repair, tweezers, grill and pot holder etc. This allowed me to ditch a few single-use things https://www.amazon.com/Leatherman-Squirt-PS4-Multitool-Black/dp/B0032Y2OT6/
Weighs in at 55g and is actually big enough to use.

Get a Leatherman Squirt PS4. I've had just about every keychain multitool on the market and the Squirt and the Victorinox Minichamp are the greatest.
I bought my wife a leatherman squirt years ago, and it's a fantastic keychain knife. She loves to tinker and fix things, so it's great for small jobs and basic utility cutting.
For those interested;
Got everything for about $100. I really love the Leatherman, who knew something so small could have such great quality standards, it feels so solid. The Fenix is crazy small and light, couldn't believe it. Finally the Tenacious is a great knife for under $50, also great build quality and man is the clip tight, that thing isn't going anywhere.

Believe it or not I'm an American that doesn't carry a big fucking knife every day. I have before and when it's in your pocket you'll find uses for it. I also found that I was able to survive without one. This is just a really trendy thing for people in reddit's age group right now.
If I ever carry a knife, I carry a very small multi-tool. It has way more practical use than some big ass blade and it doesn't double as a murder weapon.
