Well, all the points is exactly why I DO like the clikit... though you're right, it's not very portable. I have another setter for that. It does take too many sets for harder eyelets-that annoys me too. I just "live with it" and keep punching down on the handle. It seems like it's impossible NOT to end up with multiple eyelet setters, if you get into eyelets at all. I use them ALL the time on swaps, so I like the clickit for speed of setting. I do take it to crops, just stuff it somewhere in my XXL, but I also have my little spring loaded one just in case. I never use my MM one-can't find it, and I don't use the other one I bought either, sadly enough. I should, as it just works great on the Mickey eyelets. I bought it because my LSS had it, I used it one night on the Mickey eyelets, and they just set like THAT, no issues whatsover, so I waited for a 40% off coupon from my LSS, and bought it then.
