Surly Jethro Tule...worth getting?

Ok so my Langster had 6mm hex nuts on the hubs but it is gone and the IRO with it's Miche hubs will have 15mm nuts...so I need a wrench to carry with me when I ride. Is the Surly Jethro Tule worth getting or should i just go with a short 15mm wrench from craftsman or SnapOn or similar?
