i bought this out of impulse cause i was looking for a new multitool and this one caught my eye. i handled it before buying it but should have been more thorough. i may have gotten a lemon... about the only good thing this tool has going for it are the pliers. which are sturdy but i wouldnt not use them for any heavy torqueing. the screw driver bits are good quality but the slot they go in the tool has a very weak magnet that hardly holds them in. so they slip out with anything more than slight movement, and the places they go in the handle doesnt hold them very tightly and could slip out when handling the tool. granted the bits are good quality and it can be used as a screwdriver but just keep an eye on the bits cause they have a tendency to drop out. now for the knife. its very sharp and the serrations are good, but it doesnt lock up very well. i took a dremel tool to the tang so it would lock better. another thing that bothered me about the blade is that when closed it can be depressed further into the handle. and i dont know how it happened but the blade got dented by hitting part of the frame. i recommend this multitool for light use and mabe every day carry since the pocket clip carries it good in the pocket. i did carry this around for about a week before i went back to my leatherman. i am eager to try out some of CRKTs other multitools.

This is one of the best multi-tools I have used. It is light, strong, and everything works as it should. The blade is very sharp and the pliers work very well. I mainly use it for fishing, but have found it usefull when doing odd jobs.

Love this knife great quality and made with great steel. It holds a great edge for a long time. Only reason i gave 4 stars not 5 is that the magnetic Phillips and standard screw driver bits tend to fall out ive already lost one maybe im too rough on it dont know hope this helps

The screws in the handle came out with this just sitting in my pocket. I didn't expect the pliers to be able to torque a bolt but couldn't even try with how flimsy it was. The only good thing about this was the blade. Have several other CRKT products and this made its way into the trash can.

In the past I have felt overwhelmed with tools that have 20 different functions...I end up forgetting what I have in my pocket....this tool is simple and clear....easily opens bottles with the pliers, feels really good in my hands and I love the included srewdriver bits..if you are looking for something solid, simple and functional this is the tool for you.

Es realmente novedoso,ya probé todas sus funciones y logra pasar la prueba, pero cuando tu lo observas prefieres guardarlo y cuidarlo como coleccion.

Es un error que el driver no sea universal porque las piezas que trae consigo no se aseguran bien en el multitool.

I was a janitor at Yankee Stadium for 13 years, and from the beginning I knew I really wanted to be a crabber. I saved up my paychecks for years trying to raise enough money to buy a crabbing vessel. I'm a crab man now, and now I'm living my dream. Captain of my own ship. You know those guys on Deadliest Catch? They are sissies. Everybody knows every good crabber has to have a good crab jabber. I use the CRKT Zilla Jr. The sharp, narrow blade is perfect for disabling a loose crab, and we all know what happens when you have crabs running around unattended. 7 Toe Willy can tell you that story all day, hahaha.

The only thing I like more than catching a sack of big ol' crabs is eatin' the dang things! Zilla Jr. comes through once again. The modified needle nose pliers are great for pulling a nice ol' chunk a' crab meat outta the shells. One time I was at a dockside bar and this big fat guy with messed up teeth starts complaining about the crab he was eating. I was like, "I caught that crab, you got a problem with MY crab?" he said "This crab is too gamey," and I said "I don't know what that means." Anyway, long story short, he was beating me over the head with a beer mug and I jabbed him in the belly with the pliers head. BOOM! He starts barfin' up crab puke all over the bar. That was the best day of my life.
