Weak, won't stand up to heavy use. Don't buy.Sep 24, 2008 This tool broke under use when I tried to use it as part of a home project. I was using the pliers to straighten out a bent piece of metal, something that I've done tons of times with regular pliers. I figured that I could use the Gerber tool the same way.
I was wrong. When I encountered a particular stubborn piece of metal, and it wouldn't give, I had to crank extra hard. Instead of the piece I was working on bending, the Gerber tool broke! One of the small metal retaining pieces that prevents the plier handles from collapsing bent under the pressure of my hand.
Folks, I'm not that strong. I wasn't applying some superhuman amount of strength to the tool. Nevertheless, it still broke under the strain of me gripping it extra hard. I don't recommend anybody getting this tool if you're going to use it for serious work, or going to depend on it for an emergency.
convenient, but bulkyAug 07, 2008 i like this tool, but it's a little heavy, and bulky. there are a few tools that are excessive for this device, and i'm not sure how handy the tool bits are. the bits are magnetized, but the conversion bit that attaches to the tool itself does not stay on very well. i like that all of the fold out tools are locking, but the locking mechanism isn't very smooth.
i would like a little more slimmed down version of this, with a larger knife, and without the tools. i can't really complain that it has a lot of tools though, convenience is the main idea with tools like this. the price is excellent, so i can't bring myself to drop this below 4 stars.
very acceptableJul 25, 2008 overall very pleased with this multitool. pliers are quite strong, knife blades stay sharp, fits my hand great. sheath is functional, but i dont think it will outlast the tool. some of the tools are a little hard to get out, but i do have large fingers. also, the saw is nearly worthless. if you need to rely on this saw you are in serious trouble.
great compact toolMay 10, 2008 I recently bought for a gift for my dad. He is always asking to borrow my gerber so thought that I would buy him his own. I like so many features on this one that I ended up buying one for myself as well. The spring needle nose was an excellent idea. On top of that the price is almost half what I bought my other gerber for. Plus the warranty is lifetime. Excellent multi use tool.
Better than I expectedMay 01, 2008 If you'd read any of my other reviews you'd know I give a 3 as normal and 4-5 are resevered for items that beat expectations. This is a 4. Works better than I expected. Just feels high quality!
