I'd still choose a trusty Leatherman over a SOG or Swiss anyday. Their warranty is one of the best too.
Victorinox has lifetime warranty. But definitely both Leatherman and Vic over SOG. Way over.
@@just_T4U Sorry about your particular experience, but I've owned such an insane amount of Victorinox tools that I'm kind of ashamed of it. They've all been exactly the same quality control, the consistency is crazy. Maybe you're criticizing the steel itself? One thing is quality control, tolerances, etc. versus the materials and how they fit each person's particular use case. If you expect Leatherman's knife steel strength in a Victorinox, you'll be disappointed. However, if you value consistency, corrosion resistance, tighter tolerances, etc., Victorinox is much MUCH better. You don't have to agree, but consider it. I own Leathermans too and I love them, but each brand and specific tools has different use cases.
@@just_T4U Haven't had any Vic knife dull from opening and closing, but you do you, brother, and keep enjoying your tools.
The inclusion of the eyeglass driver is brilliant.
Everything is brilliant to the people that say that everything is brilliant.
Alas, it's a fragile screwdriver. Fortunately, I have a Leatherman Juice Pro so I can file the stump down to make another.
Bro thanks for covering the 1/4” drive socket. I thought I was going crazy trying to find where I could use it at. Haha
great content as usual the one thing I dislike about SOG multi tools is the fact that you have to open the handles so far to get the jaws of the pliers to open wide that sometimes it's impossible to have your hand squeezed the Flyers closed versus a Leatherman where the jobs open very wide and you can still reach your hand around to squeeze it closed
Valid critique for sure.
Made in America still means something to me.
Blacklock something for nothing
If sog and leatherman teamed up they would have the best multitool ever devised by man.
Victorinox should join in the quality control department. Only then you can have the best multitool in the world.
I recently been turned on to the SOG POWERGRAB. It has been discontinued in the same year it came out!!! But recently KNIFECENTER got a shipment in, so if ur interested pick one up soon. It has both an awl AND SCISSORS!!!
BTW the driver feature is perfected on this one...
AND it has the socket driver.
Why the hell would they discontinue it?!
Not mentioned; while wave has scissors the sog has an awl.
Tom Faranda the SOG POWERGRAB HAS BOTH!!! THOUGH DISCONTINUED, THERE ARE A FEW LEFT AT KNIFECENTER GO GET IT NOW!!!
@@realUlfricStormcloak the wave has scissors and an awl....
The wave is the only leatherman I have owned that I never really loved. I think it looks very knifey for sheeple and the way the blades protrude on the handle make it so uncomfortable for sustained use. I know everyone else loves it but I just cant take to it. Love the Rebar, skeletool, squirt, micra, fuse and wingman that I also have.
Thanks for taking the time to make these videos. Love your channel.
Thanks, and I appreciate the input.
use the hard plastic pouch to keep tool closed when using bits note the plastic pouch DOES COME WITH THUMB GRIPS FOR THIS TASK
6:40 it has little magnets, in case you dont see them. I have one of this pliers, there are OK, but the big screwdriver flat breaks like glass unther not so much pressure. Besides that i have no trouble.
great vid. was wondering however if you will be doing a review on the Gerber Center. It looks pretty awesome . I'm not gonna get a multi til I check that Gerber out.
Yoooooo that’s a mini tanto!!!!!
I'm sure you've been asked, but didn't see in your playlist: have you done a Leatherman vs SOG multi-tool?
When I have a choice Made In USA wins!
Love your videos. Always will. Also, I’m considering this tool, just to see if it is worth it, and to add something to review for my TH-cam Chanel. My Dad used a SOG tool HEAVILY when he worked in and out of pumping stations doing technical writing for said stations. It held up very well to his use.
great review brother, looks good to me
btw what camera did you use? the quality is awesome
I can never cheat on my Leatherman tools with SOGs or the like. sorry, I'll stick with my Wave and Skeletool.
I've yet to see a better made multi tool than Leatherman and I'm trying real hard to find one. Just ain't happening. Test after test, Leatherman outshines the others in performance and durability.
Ha! Leatherman is cheating on you! For example, the Skeletool CX... Made in PRC (that's China to you), and ASSEMBLED in USA! Yes, it says so right on the box.
When you buy Leatherman, you are not getting what you think, but Chinese-made blades, tools, frame the lot!
Not, repeat, NOT, made in USA!
Nice. Great review and just what I wanted to see. Right now I'm trying to decide between the two compared in the video (at least the main two I'm comparing). With a couple extra leatherman in the mix as well. This helped a lot.
Good to hear. I'll bring it along next time we meet up and you can test drive.
The Late Boy Scout I'm in the market for a 100 to 200$ folder what's your recommendation?
+rex Benchmade 940-2, or Spyderco Paramilitary 2.
The Late Boy Scout Would you recommend the 940-2 over the griptilian 550-1?
For general daily use, yes.
Didn't know I'd like a sog I could use that holster
What a bag in the video review, looks cool
Using it the way you do at 7:50 it likely to strip the socket pretty quick.
Scout, recommended video for you... "Top 10 Christmas Presents for the Knife/Guy Person in Your Life"
excuse the spelling errors my phone likes to type on its own
Mine only came with the cloth case
I'm on the fence about picking up one of these. I've been reading reviews that mention rusting problems and a few that talked about rivets breaking. Have you experienced either issue with your tool since the review?
The bits don't fit in mine as well as the the one in the video either
I wish these companies would sell a half multi tool with basics on one side (knife, can opener, and no f&8*ing scissors) and the other side an empty space with spare washers to put your keys in the tool.
That is a really great tool. I guess my only question is that if You get the SOG Tool with the bit set. I can help but wonder why you would want to have a bit that can not even be used with the tool or at least in its configuration.
I know im a couple years late, but that might actually fit on the end of one of the flathead screwdrivers on the interior of the tool.
I have a question... can you loock in place all tools in there? o just the both in the very side of the handle, thanx
Great review, thanks.
do you know if you can buy just the plastic sheath
Gage Webster yes
Sog FTW!!
The fact that the Reactor's bit turns into its slot instead of staying still and turn screws, just proves that they did not test it. Even a single screw would have showed them the feature is lacking.
Can you replace the tools like you can on other sog multitools?
I've shattered 2 SOG plyers with not very hard use. Contacted SOG and they did nothing to rectify. Don't have much good to say about SOG knifes etheir. I would personally never own another SOG product! It's Gerber multi tools and Kershaw knives for me.
It's a much better choice than a Wave. Better blades, sensible tool choice and you can use off the shelf bits with it.
How can you make your letherman less stiff without loosening the bolts
Rhys Cullen oil it or wd40 it and then keep playing with it
Спасибо, отличный обзор!
Question. If you love light fast auto knives, how come you haven't looked at any of Kershaw's launch knives?
I have. I own one, but never reviewed it, and don't plan to. I've heard multiple reports of chronic lockup problems, and Kershaw has not acknowledged those issues or tried to fix them. For that reason you won't be seeing the Launch knives reviewed on my channel at any point.
The Late Boy Scout Fair enough!
I'm late but I carry the launch 2 and launch 4 every day and have had zero issues. Maybe they fixed it by now 🤷♂️
'"Does the Powerplay have the same issue as...." ? How to learn patience to boys scout ?
The response 8 minutes later... :)
I like the plastic sheath, where can you find this?
how do you spell that short sharp tool "awe" ?
Awl.
No multitool made to date even comes close to the Leatherman Wave.......
I have Wave, TTi and AL and I have to say that Wave is my most used of those, but I like how AL feels and looks compared to Wave, still not good enough for the money.
badjujuR6 The Rebar is Damm close, very underrated! I own both.
St 300 is my go to but I don’t mind the wave for camping.
no scissors kinda blows... might still get this one though
Scissors would be great on this, but I've always got a Squirt PS4 on me, which has scissors.
Хорошее описание, спасибо .
good description thank you
I highly recommend people not to buy SOG gear There steel is brittle and the engineering fo their products is pure junk. Also, there warranty department is horrific. I've had to send back about 5 usually got back another model, not the same one sent. My last replacement was lost by them and they played the well do you have a tracking number even though their product specialist Amanda replied to me that a new one was being sent. Nothing came its been a month. SOG gear is pure junk. A lot of TH-camrs are sent thousands of dollars of gear to pretty much do advertising for companies.
лучше бы битодержатель в тонкой ручке сделали и проще и удобней и надежней
terrible audio
C00l😀😀😀
Did they have to make it ugly as sin?
That's apart of the anti theft system
I think can opener work from other side you doing wrong
bogoljub djordjevic English, dude. Learn it.
I prefer leatherman still.
rex try a Swisstool, after owning 10 or so leathermans, i never looked back
SV 97 I prefer American made products. Plus I'm not a big fan of Victornox
SV 97 What leatherman tools did you own
rex MUT, Wingman, Skeletool CX, Juice S2(2x), PS4(2x), Style, Style PS
SV 97 What about them did you not like, and btw if your trying to compare them to a Swiss tool you should have gotten a surge, rebar, or wave.
Not watching your videos anymore because of the 1:30 NRA ads that we can't skip. Not all of us who like knives and the outdoors want NRA crap forced down our throats.
FTW? please define.
For The Win.
