I bought a Crucial last year and had it for all of three months and lost it. It about killed me but I made myself wait until now to replace it hoping I will take better care of this one. It's a little thick but that is something you will have to deal with in order to get all the tools you want without wearing a belt case to hold your multi-tool when you just want to hang out but don't like being far from the essentials. Feels pretty solid and the blade is of decent thickness more like an electricians knife. And the pliers are the one thing I hate to be without. Now it's not every tool for every job. It is however that thing you'll be glad you bought, but you weren't sure if you should spend the money on it.

This multi-tool is perfect for me. I carry it everyday and use it frequently. It's bigger than the Squirt I used to carry but much more useful. If you need screwdrivers, pliers and a knife in your pocket, I would recommend this. I really like the fact that all the tools lock in place when open.

This product was a disappointment. The wire cutters did not cut wire, they just mashed it. The front of the knife blade wasn't very sharp altho the serrated portion was. The phillips screwdriver just worked its' way out of any screw that I tried it on. Overall, it's an overpriced piece of junk.
Gerber knows how to make great pocket multi-tools. I own two and I don't recall paying any more for quality USA made products than I did for this Far East import.
