The Leatherman Blast Multitool has a lot of tools at a great price point. It has nice long blades on the knives, saw and file which I always look for. I hate when a multitool knife is too short to be useful. This multitool is 100% stainless steel and very durable. The clip-point knife blade is made of 420HC Steel and is 3 inches in length. The Blast Multitool comes with needlenose pliers and regular pliers. The pliers have a great grip and the teeth line up nicely. The Blast... Read More
The SOG S66-N Power Assist Multitool is a great quality multitool. The S66-N has SOG’s Power Assist technology which is actually gear driven. Power Assist allows easy opening of blades as well as one-handed opening of the tool, but best of all it gives you leverage when using the pliers and wire cutting tools. SOG Power Assist blows away all other multitools when it comes to the power you get with the wire cutters and pliers. SOG claims their Power Assist technology... Read More
The Leatherman Super Tool 300 Multitool is a beefed up version of the Super Tool 200 by Leatherman. They made the plier head stronger, and it now has replaceable wire cutter blades.

This multitool is beefy and feels very solid when using it. Leatherman made the cutaway on the knife blade bigger... Read More
The Gerber Bear Grylls Compact Multitool is a smaller multitool than normal multitools and is part of the Bear Grylls series that Gerber makes using the Bear Grylls name. The tools are stainless steel but Gerber doesn’t tell you what kind of steel they use which means they don’t have any reason to brag. This particular multitool has 10 different tools in it including a pair of tweezers that are very small, a pair of needle nose pliers, 2 knives (serrated and straight... Read More
The Leatherman 830160 Surge Multitool is a big strong multitool. Leatherman advertises this multitool as an extra-large multitool, so you won’t be carrying this multitool in your pocket. The Surge Multitool has 2 knife blades. A clip-point blade and a separate serrated blade. This multitool also comes with a blade exchanger which can actually take jigsaw blades. Both knife blades, the blade exchanger and the scissors are all outside-accessible, so you don’t have... Read More
The Leatherman 830850 Skeletool CX Multitool is an upgraded version of the Stainless Steel Leatherman Skeletool Multitool. Some people are saying that the only difference is a layer of carbon fiber, but that is not the case. First of all the metal used in the CX version of the Skeletool is 154CM and the Stainless Steel version uses 420HC. I like the 420HC steel just fine but 154CM steel is considered high-end steel because it has good corrosion resistance, good edge retention... Read More
