my set came as a bonus along with a tool bag. all three came with its own nice nylon sheath. the brass parts have fine scratches on them due to manufacturing process not handling fault i suppose. the multitool resembles the Winchester Big Wood Tool in every way but lighter, probably made by the same factory. pliers and cutters are strong with little flexing. tools don't lock and are sometimes hard to get to with short nails which is typical with these cheaper multitools. quality is no match with Leatherman or Gerber but similar to Winchester. folding knife feels solid and strong. spring in the scissors on the swiss army like folding tool is a little sticky and many implements are too stiff to pull out but they do feel solid with minimum flexing. if you take price into consideration, i rate this set as a good buy. if you want a very good multitool without paying the Leatherman or Gerber price, check out Winchester Winframe at your local Walmart. this is a very nicely and strongly built tool made in China approaching Gerber quality for less than $15 if you don't mind that individual tools don't lock.

Unlike the sets purchased by some other reviewers, mine show no signs of use or wear. They're not Gerber quality, but what do you expect for the price? All the tools seem usable, and they look good. Handy to have in the toolbox or glove compartment.

I have to agree with one reviewer that the placement of the smaller tools in the multi-tool handle makes it hard to open them up. Also, the brass inset on the screwdriver handle isn't quite flush, making a slight edge that could be uncomfortable under hard use.

Considering I got this set along with the screwdriver/utility knife set for $15, it's a pretty good deal.

This review is from: Sheffield WH58005 3 Piece Multi-function Tool and Knife Set (Tools & Home Improvement)

My set just arrived today and I was surprised to find it scratched, dirty, and slightly bent with fingerprints all over it. It also has either blood or oil in one crevice! It came in a box. vs. the plastic blister pack shown on the manufacturers web site so I suspect this is a returned item that was represented as new to both me and Amazon. Also, there were NO instructions at all on how to use the tools. Although I know most of the functions having owned Swiss Army Knives, there are some tools in this that stump me. Additionally, the tools themselves are either dull or sharp, I find both contained within this set. The lockback knife looks like it's been run over. If you are planning on purchasing this as a gift set for someone, (as I did for my husband) be careful and remember, Amazon.com will take back returns. I will wait to see if he wants to return it before I make a decision.
