5.0 out of 5 stars Great Tool But Be Careful Opening the Blade Arm, October 3, 2008

By	P. Koback (Gaithersburg, MD United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

SAVE THE THUMBS. I love my Gerber Artifact tool, but there's one issue. The blade arm is difficult to swing out from its safety position for use. After weeks of daily use, I learned the hard way and sliced my thumb to the bone trying to open it. As I type this, my thumb is hovering unused and bandaged over the keyboard. Since then, I think I've figured out a safe way to open the blade arm and I wanted to share it to try to spare the thumbs of others -- use a coin to pry the blade arm out from its safety position. A quarter fits perfectly in the slot near the key chain loop on the tool. Stay safe.

2.0 out of 5 stars Thanks Gerber for creating a tool to cut my finger off, February 24, 2009

By	Peter J. Leary - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Imagine reaching into your pocket for your keys and feeling a sharp pain followed by the warmth of flowing blood. This was my experience with this pocket tool, a long deep gash down one of my fingers that refused to stop bleeding. As a working plumber I thought this would be a good pocket tool to carry in addition to my multi tool for when I have crawled into a tight spot. Until they come up with a more secure lock my artifact will be just that, a artifact in my tool box.

3.0 out of 5 stars Version 2 may be a great tool., November 14, 2008

By	C. Carpenter "realist" (USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Awesome look and feel. Having a nail puller around all the time can be surprisingly useful not only for nails but for removing screws and bolts that are stuck or aren't threading out, and for prying all kinds of things apart. This helps make this tool a very good complement to when you have you big tool with you also, where as most micro tools are pretty worthless when you also have your bigger/faster/nicer/more productive tool with you.

The big downside is the knife is way to hard to open and every copy of this took I have seen at least one of the screws on the inside of the knife are not in straight as if all of them were threaded badly. Also they use screws that have a crazy small what seems like a torx head so its not very easy to try and adjust anything (I have at least 50 torx bits and non are this small).

The drivers on this could also be better, I find that both the flat head and the philips head manage often to just barely not work well enough, maybe a micro socket driver would have been a better choice, but then you would have to worry about keeping track of bits.

I think exacto knifes are awesomely sharp and useful but tend to be a lot more expensive, not as common, and have a lesser variety then razor blades, but I have a ton of razor blades so the exacto part was probably what sold me on this item.

This tool also has some heft to it which can both be a postive since it has a solid feel at makes some tools like the nail puller more useful but not always something you want in your ultra portable tool.

If I was going to buy only one (and normally a person only carries one small tool) I would suggest getting Gerbers moneyclip/razor blade combo knife which is probably my favorite razorblade out their since it so light, nice looking, doesn't scream tool/knife, and is dirt cheap to get great blades for like the Stanley HD and the Lenox/Irwin blades. That tool has no other extra tools on it though, hopefully Gerber will combine these two tools so I can have more micro tools from them :)
