Pocket knife/multitool.
I was going to say, a Swiss Army Knife. Lifechanging. I use it quite a lot. It's small for men's pockets, and you can get smaller ones too (mine is a cybertool, so on the middle-large size of SAKs). I also have a SwissTool that's huge and just tool porn and fun to use as a fidget device, but way too big for me to EDC, and way overkill for what I'd end up needing it for. Also the SwissTool is over $100. The Cybertool was at $99, and there's plenty of less specialized SAKs going down to like $30.
I have the Swiss Army Rambler as my EDC. I need scissors a lot, and the Phillips head screwdriver comes in handy more than you'd think. Women's pants have small pockets and the Rambler is perfect.
I've carried a Cybertool for years. It gets used almost daily.

I bought an Opinel Carbon just last week. I got the size 9. It lives in my work laptop bag and comes with me every day. I also got the Opinel non-Carbon (stainless?) size 7 for my wife, and she has been using it a lot to open packages, food cartons, etc. Its handy just to have a sharp knife at hand when you need it. The Opinel models are very good for the price.

The Leatherman isn't under 100 bucks, at least not in the Netherlands. My Wave + was 150 bucks. Still massively worth it, though.
