Details

As noted, a multi tool is any tool that combines several tools or functions into one single handheld unit. The idea of the multi tool is believed to date back to Ancient Rome, where the citizens used multi tools for eating. Of course, they would have looked very different from what we know as multi tools today.

The Swiss army knife is actually considered a multi tool and is one of the earliest contemporary designs. Today, many people associate the term multi tool with its generic trademark, "Leatherman." The Leatherman® was a multi tool originally developed in 1984 by Tim Leatherman. This model, unlike the Swiss army knife, incorporated a set of pliers in a balisong-style housing. Now, the market is flooded with similar designs, including the Mil-Tec multi tool.

There are not too many jobs that the Mil-Tec multi tool cannot handle. And rather than tell you about it in exquisite, exciting detail, I will just let the tool speak for itself. The Mil-Tec multi tool includes:

- Spring-loaded Pliers

- Wire cutters

- Large blade

- Small blade

- Large flathead screwdriver

- Medium flathead screwdriver

- Small flathead screwdriver

- Bottle opener

- Can opener

- Saw blade

- Ruler

- Phillips head screwdriver

Best of all, it is small enough to slip easily into a pocket. If you are not the pocket-having type, never fear. The Mil-Tec multi tool includes a mildew-resistant nylon sheath to house the multi tool. The sheath features a closure flap that is secured via Velcro® (another generic trademark) and a 2.75-inch belt loop.

So next time you decide to get marooned on a deserted island, make sure you remember to grab your Mil-Tec multi tool. It will make surviving the ordeal much easier considering you will probably not have a pallet for of duct tape at your disposal.

Good buy

This is a nice multi tool, it feels sturdy and I get the impression it will hold up for a quite a while. I agree with others that the saw is more of a fish scaler, but that's a minor complaint. It opens nicely and just has a good overall feel to it, the weight and everything. For this price you certainly can't go wrong, glad I got one

Large Mil-Tec Multi Tool

Mil-Tec Multi Tool, what can I say, I agree with the Review by Philip, the "fish scalier" is really a dull saw, I sharpened it and now it scales fish and saws. I would not use it for large logs, but it will work in a pinch. The multi tool is made well as stated before and the knife blade will need more sharpening if you want to shave with it, but it can get the job done as is. I bought two of these and use one as my backup in my BOB. It is worth the money I may get another.

Steal at this price.

I am comparing to my Gerber suspension, which it appears to be a copy of. It is about 1/4" longer in the handles, but it has a rubber coating to improve grip, so it's not as slippery as the Gerber. However blades & tools do not lock. Spring tension for the pliers is from and exposed spring underneath, which might be a failure point. All blades & tools are of good thick stainless, comparable to the Gerber.

The description says saw blade, which is incorrect. It has a fish scaler. The case provided was rather thin, with misaligned Velcro, but you aren't buying it for the case. Unless you are fortunate to find a clearance event you aren't going to match the price for value of this multi-tool anywhere else.

Great Value!

I bough this based on the other review...He was right! You can feel the quality of this tool immediately. I would expect to pay about $40 for this tool just based on the feel, function and finish.
I'm so impressed I'm buying a few more for gifts. I love this tool and you can't beat the price.

Great Value!

I collect multi-tools - ever since the first Leatherman appeared in the mid-80's. I've seen exceptionally good ones & really poor ones, and spent in excess of $100 for a few of them. In general, I've found that the "knock-offs" from China are amongst the worst of the bunch - they are typically poorly designed ergonomically, have pinch points & sharp edges, are made of poor quality steel, etc. So I was frankly shocked when I saw this tool, which is also made in China. It is well-designed ergonomically, has no pinch points, deploys easily, is easy & comfortable to use, and has no burrs or sharp edges. In short, its quality rivals tools costing 4-5X as much, while sacrificing nothing in functionality. I've also lost several expensive multi-tools in the field, which is painful when you've spent $75. or so for each. This tool, at a price point of $15, is inexpensive enough so that one needn't worry about a loss, yet retains all of the functionality necessary for daily carry. Buy it - you won't regret it. Better yet, buy several.
