About this deal

Recently, fellow IFMGA mountain guide Jeff Dobronyi joined the review team. Jeff's busy outdoor lifestyle requires having the right tool for the job, whether that's repairing ski gear or mountain bike components in the field or doing repairs, or slicing food at home.

This exceptional product is equipped with almost every imaginable tool, organized and optimized for compact function Scissors: While you might think a knife can open most things, sometimes it’s easier and safer to use a pair of scissors instead. And when they’re spring-loaded, they can be a joy to use for an extended time. The SOG Flash MT is a really light multitool — the lightest with full-size pliers. Those pliers also happen to have SOG’s compound leverage system, giving a lot of force when gripping items. Testing & Notable Features There are a lot of knives heavier than the Flash MT. For example, the Hinderer XM-18 3.5” weighs almost a full ounce more at 5.6 ounces compared to the Flash’s 4.7.

Conclusion

Can opener: Whether camping in the woods or in an emergency survival situation, being able to open canned foods can mean the difference between life and death. The Gerber Center Drive Plus displaces its non-Plus predecessor for this specialized award. The Plus takes all we liked about the original Center Drive and adds scissors and a larger blade, which we deem significant and worthy upgrades. The screwdriver configuration has a long extension and a handle ready for more torque. This award-winning Gerber centers the bit along the handle's long axis, vastly improving ergonomics and making it feel like a true, single-purpose screwdriver. The 12 bits that come with this model fit inside the included leather sheath along with the tool.

we have a bottle and can opener which I never understand why they put on multi tool. If you have this in your hand and you can't open a bottle without using the bottle opener you really shouldn't be drink that bottle and can someone tell me when they last used a tin opener on a multi tool .At this price point, however, there are some compromises. The lone blade features a hybrid straight and serrated edge made of mid-grade steel, which will require regular sharpening depending on your use. The straight portion is easily reconditioned, but sharpening serrations requires special techniques. Further, that blade is significantly shorter than it needs to be. There is almost a half inch of extra space in the handle that Leatherman conspicuously does not utilize. Overall, you get far more than you pay for with the Leatherman Wingman, including some truly unique features not seen in even high-end models. If you're willing to spend a little more, the Leatherman Skeletool CX offers better ergonomics but fewer functions. If you use a multi-tool for basic tasks but are prone to losing it, the Wingman won't hurt quite as much to replace. what look to be the seatbelt cutter is in the middle of all the tools which you can not access without pulling all the other tools out to access it so in and emergency when your car is upside down will take you about 5 mins to get it out to cut yourself free. The Litre comes equipped with a magnetic hex bit holder and features SOG's Compound Leverage that provides smooth open and close and increased gripping power, in both the pliers and corkscrew. The choice of a multi-tool for outdoor activities largely depends on personal preference. SOG’s multi-tools, with their rugged build and unique tool combinations, are often favored by outdoor enthusiasts. However, Leatherman and Gerber also offer excellent multi-tools for outdoor use. Conclusion Getting lost in the sauce while searching for features on your next multi-tool is common. Think about the tools you need daily, and treat any extras that come with it as a bonus. Sometimes, having a simple and lightweight tool makes it easy to use and easy to everyday carry. But if you need more tools than the average person, focus on that need.

The PowerLitre is a mini-multi tool with that delivers full-sized utility, including the first SOG multi-tool to include a corkscrew. Bottle opener: These are almost always included on every multi-tool, and for a good reason. A bottle opener is one of the most valuable features of an everyday carry multi-tool. Tool complement: Needlenose pliers, wirecutters, center-drive screwdriver, bottle opener, pry tool, and assisted-open knife Founded in 1986, SOG Specialty Knives started its journey by reproducing the unique combat knife carried by US Special Ops in the Vietnam War. Since then, SOG has expanded its product line to include a range of high-quality multi-tools. They are known for their innovative designs, durability, and particularly, their gear-driven Compound Leverage system. Leatherman Tools – An Overview Leatherman and Victorinox are the community’s favorite everyday carry multi-tool brands. They face strong competition from SOG and Gerber. What multi-tool do Navy SEALs use?On the other hand, Gerber’s build quality is robust, with most of their multi-tools featuring a stainless steel construction. However, it’s worth noting that Gerber’s emphasis on lighter, more compact designs sometimes leads to compromises in the strength of individual tools. Ease of Use: SOG versus Gerber The Leatherman Wave+ brings heaps of value to the Leatherman line-up. Leatherman takes 90% of what makes the Charge so impressive and sells it for 60% of the cost. What you get is the Wave+ and an excellent value. The Leatherman Wingman is even less expensive, by a significant margin, but has fewer features and is made with lesser quality materials (though most users may not notice the weight savings of steel vs. titanium casing). For a full-featured tool, the Wave+ is the bargain shopper's choice. Serrated blade: Less aggressive than a saw blade, serrated-edged blades retain the ability of a knife to slice and chop. Screwdrivers: From flathead to Phillips to accepting hex bits, the screwdriver is an essential part of a multi-tool setup.
