Will it fit in an Altoids tin? *(and I don't mean diagonally) Thanks.
For you I will do a follow up video. I believe I’m still subbed. Are you making videos? Love your channel!
I was subbed, but wasn’t getting notifications. Fixed!
@@JohnnyJuke Yup, still making videos but not very frequently. I have fit a modified Leatherman Skeletool in an Altoids tin and will be showing it in a future video but was interested in what would fit without modification.

@@JohnnyJuke Thanks! I replied there.
Hey there! You actually can unlock the tools without swinging it open. Since the back lock is only one for every tool, you simply open another tool half way, which pushes the lock back and you can fold everything back in.
I put a tiny little magnet on the bottom inner sides of the handles to stop it from swinging open, works like a charm and also leads to a pretty satisfying closing-click. Guess you could glue the magnet too but it isn't even necessary. You gotta try this, it's one of those little and easy workarounds which change a lot ;)
I never thought that I would want a SOG. But this little guy looks like a great tool to have on the console of the car
i saw this and couldn't resist, impulse bought. it checks off every box on my list, ouside access locking blade, one handed opening, pocket clip etc. thanks
I like your format. No B.S., and straight to the point.
Subbed.
Perfect size. Im using an over 500grams Surge with accessories and i often want this PowerPint.
I had never seen this one before. The fact that you can use a bit extension in it is pretty cool! Thanks for your thoughts on the power pint, buddy.
I like mine too. I carry it as part of my cycling tool kit, with a small set of multiple 1/4" bits. About as light weight as you can get for an MT.
I cycle 20km daily commute. Usually I take the power access assist along.
Thanks so much for a really positive discussion of what seems to be a very handy small multi tool and have just ordered one in black.
Actually I learned two things from your video. One, the hack to reprofile the can opener and add a flathead screwdriver. Secondly, to easily open all blades at once. That sure beats ripping the fingernails. Thanks…
It seems very practical, for its size. Good job 👌👌
When I got mine I immediately modded it as well, took the nail nick off of the can opener too so I could use it to carve out the bowl on a spoon.
Nice!
I had a power access with the tool bits, and I liked it and beat the crap out of it with no problems,
so I decided to go with the powerpint because it is smaller and could still use 1/4" bits, and I have not regretted it since.
Yes, there are multi-tools with better quality tools in them, but form factor, usefulness, and fidget factor have made this an instant EDC for me.
I have been using it on all kinds of random things, especially for the scissors, and it has been cool so far, because it is so small it's convenient to carry. I also find myself flipping it around like a balisong every once in a while, so the fidget factor. Hoping I don't have to see how the warranty end is any time soon.
Yup sweet MT. Fidget fun too!😊
Yhaa...I want to second every thing you just said...my better half somewhat appreciated that when fidgeting with it is is relatively silent...no Kinfe Lock "Click" or pen unlocking "pop" lol.
Just watch out for the torx screws periodically, and make sure they don't become loose...or use loctite.
I added a piece of magnet on PP1001‘s back lock which turns it into a FREE PP
my pp is free
Great idea
Nice. Might just take the place of my Skeletool as my pocket multi-tool.
(I modified my Skeletool to hold six different bits).
I’m a little late to the party but I appreciate the thorough non review it fits my size for an edc i like the screwdriver mod…
Late to the party, probably old news.
That "draw cutter" is an emergency seatbelt cutter, so you would want the points and tips to be dull to reduce the chance of injury.
Great video, thanks!
Thanks for the info!
Blade steel is 5cr13mov. That's what SOG told me.
I bought one this month , the packaging claims the same . That being said I have been trying to touch up the straight edge and found it doesn’t get sharp like I would expect . Last thing the file was not cut deep enough to be of good function . That being said - I like it , but it’s not perfect.
@@zensempai7371 - I have the satin finish version and the scissors are not that good. I don't use it much. I usually use my Leatherman Wave+. But the SOG power pint isn't that bad. I have seen worse.😂😂😂
@@zensempai7371 - Yes it is 5cr13mov steel.
they are 5Cr15MoV stainless steel straight edge and serrated multitool knife blades according to Amazon
‘This is not a review ‘ continues to review all separate tools on the multi tool, and nice fidget tool btw.
Never seen these, thanks.
Nice review. Want the black one but wanted to see how color would hold up. Seems by yours it holds up fine. Getting one now. New sub.
I think for me this tool is better than the letherman juice for edc for me. I like the awl and pocket clip
I might need to do a follow up video. Great tool.
although it is functional but heavy in In comparison with size.
Sure this is in your comments already, but do you use flat magnet (glued or free floating) between handles? It certainly stops the pliers opening in pocket👍
I cant believe they are selling a multi tool without a decent flat head screw driver!! I have been looking for a decent pocket size multi tool for so long, the powerpint is the perfect size but had to pass because of the flat head issue : (
I am very happy with this MT after I made a screw driver.
@@JohnnyJuke .... Yes, and it looked like you did a very good job. Just sad that you had to make a screw driver, it should have been there when you bought the tool.
A few minutes with a Dremel modified the bottle opener to a 4mm flathead driver, and the file tip to a 7mm large flathead driver/prytool.
The hex bit holder is also a great tapping hammer for replacing paint lids.
This is a most useful and versatile smaller multitool, and I use it a dozen times a day.
And remember it does hold bits, so add flat head bit and you are in business!
@@RamblinPhoenix .... Yes thats true, I will probably pick one up eventually. Thanks for your reply.
Great review of such a nice tool, now in black!! Mine got broken, tough. Rivets that hold in place the compound levereage got snapped after trying to cut a thick steel wire. Any ideas how to repair them?, other than SOG Warranty (shipment from my country is more expensive than the tool itself)
Might be a hard fix.
Its a strap cutter my guy.. The point u refer to is not ment to be sharp its primary purpose would be for example rescue seat belt cutter. Where u wouldnt want a sharp point
Nice review 👍
Good job 👌👌
👍👍
You can use the pliers to grip larger items with the pliers on the inside, ie, with the handles open less than 90°.
Incidentally, things don't work "good".... They work WELL.
For how something works, use adverb, "well".
The other brand you mention is "Vic-tor-in-ox", not "Vict-or-i-an-ox".
Further observation :-
Where do you carry the extra ¼- inch driver bit when you are out and away from your workshop/toolbox? If you have all the extra tools that fit into the bit holder in your toolbox, I suggest that you would never use the PowerPint. You'd used dedicated tools in your toolbox.
If you review a multitool, you should review only what is part of the tool, or extra bits that are part of the pouch. Not extra tools that you have at home.
That's al well and good but...😁
American English: good is an adverb
British and Commonwealth English: good is an adjective, well is the adverb
Despite English being a truly global language there are more variations between German spoken in North/South Germany and Austria / Switzerland, and even between Netherlands Dutch and Flemish Dutch despite NL and Flanders being tiny
@@simonh6371 Quite possibly the most educated comment on my channel to date.
@@simonh6371 Hi, Simon. Sorry, but you are wrong. Here's an excerpt from Grammarly (American English):-
A common English error is to misuse the words good and well. The rule of thumb is that good is an adjective and well is an adverb. Good modifies a noun; something can be or seem good. Well modifies a verb; an action can be done well.
The incorrect use of "good" in USA may be a common, sloppy practice, but it's still just bad grammar.
(I realize I'm commenting on an unrelated comment here, and not on the SOG, but... Too bad!
the only thing that helps for size comparison is a leatherman wave.
Mine is satin finish one
Too bad it's so hard to find one.
It is good except for the lack of a good flathead.
Hi there. Nice review. Did your scissors work as shown right out of the box, or did you sharpen them? I have a PowerPint in stonewash, and the scissors don’t work anywhere near as well as yours. They will not even dent paracord. Apart from the scissors, it’s a great edc. I find that it works well with a Leatherman ratchet driver.
Yes I did sharpen them. I have a few videos using the ratchet driver. Great choice you made!
Macgyver would replace his Swiss Army multitool for this one
He might at that!
Where did you get the black one I haven’t seen one like that
Amazon
How did you modify the bottle opener to get that flathead style tip?
Belt sander.
A multi tool with no flathead screwdriver?
I know right?
That is a serious flaw on this tool. A flat head would be much more useful than a can opener.
Good review. I have a question - traditional wooden handle of synthetic? I have a Helle Temagami blank - trying to determine walnut , birch or Micarta. What do you reckon?
Climate makes some woods crack. Micarta or G10 for the win! My Bark River black iron wood has shrunk!
@@JohnnyJuke Thanks mate. Micarta with a coloured spacer!
Hi sorry, where can I find the black version?
This one came from Amazon.
Hi! Is it blackwash coating?
Black Oxide
Does the 1/4" driver slides into place with the tool totally shut? Mine needs to open just a slightly bit...
Yes open so slightly.
@@JohnnyJuke Thanks! GREAT review! I actually bought mine because of this. Great job!
Is the black version an updated , better version of the original stonewash PowerPint?
Same just black.
Will a thicker or normal size jigsaw blades fit in the bit connector?
Not sure it would work.
Does it become so loose because you play it a lot ? Mine was so tight that I even need to unfold it with two hands. Is it possible to adjust the tightness?
No pivot screw for adjustments
Wanna sell / trade your powerpint? Want to switch from my Leatherman P2 free to something smaller haha
Anyone know if the Leatherman Ratchet Driver will work with the PowerPint?
I have a driver enroute. I will be doing a follow up video soon.
Hi there mate were can get one please?
SOG Website
Ok mate thanks very much again for all your help today
Can you open the knife on the PowerPint with one hand?
Difficult
Where is the Amazon or vendor link.... make some money to fund your channel, I'm not mad at you, if your putting up good information
