Right now they're $20 with free shipping on SOG's website, plus they have a 10% off code floating around. This thing looks ripe for mods
Wow here in the UK the best price I can find for this is £39 which is just over $50. That's also the kind of price difference here with Leatherman and Gerber multitools too, i.e. more than double the US price.
Wow that's unfortunate. I can usually find used Leathermans on ebay for a decent price. I guess the only issue is to find one where the seller will do international shipping :-/
@@TheTuneAce The sellers on ebay are happy to ship internationally, but ebay's policy is not to allow shipping of any bladed items to the UK afaik. Even if they could the shipping would bump up the price to the price we pay over here.
Whaaaattt???!?!
@@maxlvledc Yes but fortunately I got a Nextool Mini Flagship for less than $20 in your money, shipping included. Scissors are almost as good as on the Snippet...and it has a bunch of other stuff on it too. So honestly I wouldn't be in the market for a Snippet or for that matter a LM Micra or Style CS, or Gerber Splice, even if I could get them at US prices. Honestly I have enough multitools and knives now for every scenario, from gentleman's urban carry to zombie apocalypse so it's probably just as well they aren't so cheap here otherwise I'd have dozens more.
After 20 years, a few weeks ago I switched my keychain multitool. Went from the Leatherman Micra to the SOG Snippet. Love the handle design.
For the key chain dangler mod, I think you would be better off trying to flip the clip, rather tan flipping the position of the lanyard ring. Because if you flipped the lanyard ring then your keys would be right up at the pivot of the scissor getting awkwardly positioned and in the way. But if you can flip the clip then the orientation is perfect for use of the scissors and keeping the keys from being right in between the the handles during use.
Hmmm, only issue is that the indent may make it impossible to use the clip

The sog powerpint is really good. Such a great size plier head in that small form factor
I agree the PowerPint has a lot to offer in a small package and with the pocket clip makes this a great little edc.
I have been carrying this daily for a few weeks and love it. The scissors Amazing, Knife Blade plenty good enough for opening packages etc, Nail File works really well, Bottle Opener slash small flatblade works well after reshaping the flatblade where it will work for an eyeglass driver, large flatblade works well also great for light scraping, Plastic pick works for cleaning crevices like the back of my watch etc, tweezers will grab and remove a single arm hair with ease they would definitely work well on a splinter. I got this tool for $17 shipped from SOG and I'm so glad I did its very useful on a daily basis.
Damn! That's a deal!
The SOG power pint is actually one of my favorite mini multi tools. Thanks for the video!
Seems like a nice tool. I carry Swiss Army Rambler and a AAA light in my watch pocket for years! I ordered a Utica USA made minimaster....I guess been around for years...always wanted one...and to support an old company that still seems to be making some products in the US. Great review as always!
Just looked it up, $35, good tool set (out of stock, unfortunately):
Small Screwdriver
Medium Screwdriver
Modified Phillips
Clip Blade
US/Metric Ruler
Scissors
Lanyard Ring
Cap Lifter/Lock
Bottle Opener
3 Hex Wrenches
Nail File
Tweezers
How are the scissors? And the tweezers? Looking for a good multi tool for my partner and she'd mainly be using the grooming features
@@drewlop Tweezers are on par with Swiss Army knife type. Scissors too.... It looks like Utica started making this tool in China...for lower price/ quality....USA one has been unavailable for about a year.....But it is still listed in current catalog as USA made...so hopefully they will start producing it again. I think product line for 2024 coming soon according to FB post....They make some nice stuff!
In the 24 years I served in the US Army SOG stood for Same Old Garbage good to see they are doing something good. Also the Gerber Clutch, Vise, Splice, and Crucial all lock when you get a tool out knife, Philips, file/small screwdrivers, large screwdriver’s and the serrated blades. Three are keychain two are carabiner the largest and smallest. The Vise, Splice and Clutch are the same with different pliers or a scissor. And you can buy a bit kit (10) for 1/4” for $9.99 and use any 1/4” drive bit. I bought a brand new Leatherman Skeletool and hammer jammer I like the 1/4” 4mm and standard Leatherman bit holder makes it like a screwdriver. I didn’t read the fine print about the screws I ordered them today. I got a new in the box Leatherman Style CS and added the plastic bit holder. Now it’s down to the heavyweight. Any help in which one is better I would greatly appreciate it.
Sorry difficult to understand, what are you looking for exactly??
I went back and watched the modified sketeltool twice and now feel like like a complete DA. To do the saw and file modifications the only way is with the Surge. Sorry about not paying attention and bugging you.
Thank you. I just purchased from SOG direct for $19.28 after taxes and shipping!
I really like my Snippet too. I am with you that some of the inside implements are mediocre, but they are the best multitool scissors I've ever used. To be honest though, I've always kind of liked SOG's multitools despite their shortcomings. Leatherman and Victorinox are better on the whole of course, but SOG to me comes in at a solid 3rd place. I've been more impressed by them than Gerber anyway...
Glad to see SOG put out such a good tool!
I recently got their PowerPint after seeing a bunch of mixed reviews for it. The reviewers essentially has follow-ups in which they admitted they were harder in their initial review than was fair, which was what finally convinced me to get it over a Leatherman Style PS.
I have to echo the general sentiments of the reviewers before me: It’s a great concept marred by lackluster execution. I’d love for SOG to take the criticism and work on improving the actually manufacturing of the final product. It looks like the Snippet is a good platform to expand outward from in terms of honing their machining and getting the other products to turn out the way they should.
Thanks for helping me find a gift for my wife's birthday. Noyce!
Then again... I may want to EDC it, too. HA!
I have a Squirt S4 which is similar to the Micra in many ways but the tools are accessible from the outside and the tweezers separate from the tool which is nice. But, I actually think this SOG might be a nicer tool overall, certainly has a much better file. The Squirt S4 has spring loaded scissors, which can be seen as a personal preference.
sog power point is a great multi-tool from what I can seen. The gearing to the pliers is kinda sweet. Pliers seem great. Knife is ok but thin. for a mini multitool the powerpint ticks a lot of boxes and kinda seems like it is better than leatherman squirt.
I've always had a general aversion to SOG multitools, but you have kinda sold me on this one, it seems quite functional and well priced.
The scissors are ridiculously good
There's 2 companies I avoid like the plague: SOG and Gerber. But you say its good I trust you
So far only the powerpint and snippet are worth the look
Nice product and review. I really like the blades being on the inside. Would have liked to have seen the toothpick and tweezers be better but nothing is completely perfect. Still great looking product.

I got one of these on clearance from cabelas a while back but I returned it pretty soon after, I just really didn't like how it felt/was used. Especially those finger guard things. I probably should have kept it thinking back.
THE AMOUNT OF SAD CHANGE THAT HAS COME TO THIS THING RELATED TO IT IN ONLY 1 YEAR. IS INCREDIBLY JUST BEYOND THE SADDEST DAM THING EVER 8/
"[Toothpick] is good at cleaning earwax out of ear buds" I immediately thought of Jon Gadget 😅
Haha! It was from him actually
It's my go to toothpick 🤣
>finally finds a SOG tool he likes
>it doesn't even have the patented SOG compound leverage
lol
This does look good though, I have cross-cut but this looks a lot better.
I do like the powerpint...no cap
Great review. In theory there's only 2 sogs I like the sog power assist Mt and the mini sog instinct great mini fixed blade
Woo Hoo, saw it within the first hour. Ok, I have a few SOG products and I beat the hell outta them. So I wanna thank you for giving me yet another Item to purchase. I’m sure my wife will thank you. 😂
They need to write SOG on there one more time.
🤣🤣🤣
I own MULTIPLE OF THESE MINT SEALED IN RED AND THE GOLY GRAIL C3P0 GOLD.
I HAVE TH3 GOLEN 1 FOR PERSONAL.
ITS THE GOLY GRAIL POCKET MULTI TOOL SCISSOR.
IT SMOKES LEATHERMAN MICRA BIG TIME.
WILDEST THING EVER THAT ITS NO LONGER IN PRODUCTION.
MAKE IT MAKE SENSE
🤷🏻♂️
I just had to come back. It's JUST THAT GOOD!!!!
Bro Vic SAK tooth pix are dirt AF too 😂 AND theyre in a compartment that you cant clean! 😅 Better use food grade lube For Sure!
Haha, true
SOG got my vote.! Cowabunga mate.!
Check out the PowerPint!! One of the best (if not the best) pocket sized multi tool.
Hard to argue...it annoys me that #1 the scissors suck...and #2 its plier ratio is perfect and should have been used in the flash mt.
I 1000% agree on the scissor aspect. Absolute 🗑! But I carry an SAK with me daily as well, so that handles that aspect for me.
Do a braid fishing line. I have tried all my multi tool scissors and they fail. Leatherman and Gerber.
I don't think anything cut the dynema. It was the hardest test by far...
Oh! And the 85mm Wenger serrated scissors did it!
Any idea if this is TSA compliant? Would be handy to have nice scissors to snip zip-ties…
Technically no, go with the Leatherman style ps, and use the pliers to open zip ties.
Awesome video. I thought you really liked the flash mt too, what happened?
I did...probably should have mentioned it.
@@maxlvledc OK. I've holding out on buying one, waiting to see if you did a follow up. Thank you for the reply.
Hey. I thought you said you like the powerpint?
I do...but the scissors and file on mine were so bad...it's hard to recommend
Will the Micra implements fit the Snippet?
Hmm, maybe..not sure
@@maxlvledc you are supposed to know the answer to all mod questions! 😂
@@malverdetx8582 😅
What caused your band-aid? Hope it heals quick!
I tried to wipe nut shells off a outside table and they locked into the wholes and cut my hand to shreds!
They discontinued it
Leatherman Micra not good scissors don't cut they wiggle when they cut
Sog flash mt review?
Did already I thought
@@maxlvledc
Found it for some reason it didn't show up earlier.
Where is it made in China 🇨🇳 🤔
And? Most of multitool scissors in my top 5 were also made in china..guess they make good scissors.
