Getting name dropped in one of my favorite channels of all time!? Made my day Pete. I think the spare blades are 8cr13mov, but honestly the utility knife holder is the best one. (Also did you do something with your audio?? It sounds super clear 👌)
Looks like you made it man! Lol
Did you send a check or good scotch or something? NICE!
Noice!
The established brands very much appreciate consumers and youtubers continued support, regardless of whether they deserve it, or not.
I don't own any multitools, and I don't particularly have any desire to carry one, but I still really enjoy hearing you talk about them
I live rural NZ and working at home in the garden or shed, I have a pocket knife and a leather man wingman always. I find useful for short and quick jobs. and I have a gerber multi-colour in the truck for quick use.
@@astondriver living in Denver Colorado I rarely ever find myself wishing for more than a nice sharp picket knife, but I can definitely imagine someone in a more rural setting getting a lot of use out of one
Where’s basil ????
Cool. Never heard of this,! Dig the scissors
I love how everyone is discovering the Roxon Phantom now, even though it came out 2 years ago. Nice to see it getting some attention honestly. Even without the interchangable blades it's a sweet little tool.
Honestly, what we are loving multitools for is the transformation, the hidden features and the thoughtful details of the mechanism.
Absolutely...
That's what she said! (about THE multitool) 😂
I have a sneaking suspicion that that is in fact your night light Pete.
Hi Pete I was wondering about this tool. You are right on time. Really appreciate the grading at the end - now that is great idea !
I ordered one of these on amazon yesterday! I'm in indiana. The variety of replaceable blades are very attractive, but I think they are all basically no name stainless steel. The box cutter attachment, on the other hand, is the real attraction for me. I can always order quality razors! If the scissors work as well as I hope, then this will definitely be a keeper for special occasions.
They are actually 8cr which is better than legitimately almost all other multitools
I have a Victorinox which I've had for years. Damn heavy for it's size, and awkward to open most of the blades. The simple way this one just lifts the blades out is nice, my old tool doesn't have any scissors, let alone such large ones, doesn't have such a sturdy-looking knife and cost a heap more. I think just to keep in the glove-box of my truck this will be about perfect. Hope so, cos I ordered one 2 days ago!
Thanks Pete! Opinion…almost all multi tool makers live in terror that they might be seen to have one less tool than the competition. So they cram their designs full of a dozen tools most of us will never use and the result is a big heavy lump that doesn’t get carried. Give me a smaller, lighter design with just the basics - pliers, knife, good screwdrivers. The manufacturer that creates a ‘modular’ design that allows the purchaser to choose just the tools they wish to include will clean up.
The only good one in that configuration is the Skeletool. Gerber made a couple with a minimalist toolset like the Crucial and Balance and I think SOG made some minimalist ones too but they're not the best quality. GOAT tools have a modular design but the handles are designed to incorporate a full toolset so it makes no sense removing all handle tools except the blade and drivers. I cant EDC a Skeletool as I'm in the UK and it has locking blades so I have my own deconstructed version. A Spyderco Urban , Knipex Cobra XS, and a bit driver.
Gotta love those Honda key shells. They make an aftermarket unbreakable shell but you need a locksmith to cut the blade.
I own Leatherman Wave (motorcycle top box), Victorinox Ranger Grip 79 (car glovebox) and Victorinox Farmer Alox (fanny pack) and rarely use any of them because I always use my pocket knife or a dedicated tool. I think multitools are simply purchases to make us happy as they remind us of toys and stimulate our inner child. 😄

"Single-prong fork"
Hah! Good luck trying to eat noodle salad with that one. 😂
Nailed it my friend
I just got my Roxoff
Awesome video as always and as a locksmith I definitely lol'd at the shitty broken honda key.
Find a local locksmith and have that remote key swapped over to a new shell. Should be quite a bit cheaper than a new key but also ask if they will rekey the ignition lock. The little half wafers in honda locks are notoriously shitty and develop burrs and get hung up inside the ignition lock. When that happens the lock seizes up and gets harder to turn... which as you know is enough to break keys.
If you don't get it rekeyed it will eventually seize up for real and be unusable. Then you'll have to tow it to a honda dealer and get a whole new ignition lock. :(
Thanks for all the great vids!
I’m surprised more multitools don’t have tanto blades. Strong tip, flat easy to sharpen edge and a scraping tip.
I like Australia Man. I also like the grading system at end. Thank you.
In the spirit of this, I'd love to see what you think of the Bibury pro from Amazon! I just bought one as my first pliers-based multitools.
Also got one of these. Maybe I'm missing a trick with the addition of the swap in utility blade because I found when it wasn't deployed it stuck out so far that the plier jaws could no longer close all the way when in use. Also had no detent (unlike the other blades I tried in it). So I ended up choosing the sheep's foot. The utility blade does work much better in the separate knife handle you can get for this system but a shame about its compatibility with the multitool.
I enjoyed this review very professional. Also liked the a,b,c rating method at end. Good job 👍
@Maxlvledc has been showing me all sorts of tools that I haven't seen around, and I'm glad you saw his stuff Pete and went for a trial farm run. Thanks to both y'all!
Love the scout carry lol. Interesting design and features despite the chunkiness
I think SOG has some cool looking multi-tools coming out. also some interesting tools already exist from SOG like the Flash MT and the PowerLock and PowerAccess
The SOG MultitoolS I really under rated. Especially the early power lock. And since then, SOG has twisted them a bit and they are not quite the same anymore.
I use a SOG Power Access Deluxe daily. Over time I have found I carry it a lot more often than my Surge.
@@gregtomamichel973 Some features that are pointed outs as drawback are actually quite handy if your are used to it. This argument: „You have to open it all the way“ I found not to be true for the Powerlock.
I don't own a multi tool, and really don't think I need one. Most of them look big and bulky with tools I will never use. But your reference to Ganzo knives got my attention. I own a Ganzo 721 automatic. I think it has great aesthetics. Feels good in the hand. The blade had a very sharp edge out of the box. Yeah...the 440C steel is not very good. The edge dulls very easily. But it strops back to sharp very quickly and easily. At $28 USD delivered, it is a steal! If this multi tool is made as well as my Ganzo knife, I might be interested in one. Thanks Pete!
I have their mini version in my car. Great tool for the quality of scissors and decent pliers.
Leatherman Free P4 is amazing
Funky Sim City music going on there
The US has a LOT of cans without those pull rings. We have to use can openers often here
Just an FYI Roxon has been around for years, not exactly sure what all they make as far as EDC, but I can tell you I’ve had a small spear point blade folding knife from them for years that I’ve kept clipped on my sun visor in my truck for years now 😂 I actually forget it’s there so I never use it
Ever considered making a blade shape comparison video with different tasks?
I have the leatherman wave with s30v blade
Thanks Pete, I hate it :D
A bad saw is an immediate no for me, I use that a ton. Philips driver, second most used, also no.
That removeable scale is actually a really cool idea, though. That's a very smart idea.
Cars have lots of room for actual tools, probably just get a few decent ones and put them in a tool roll. Maybe that's just an "us" thing and something like this is good for other people in our lives.
Where are the dogs?!?!?! 3 seconds of dogs? You're lucky I have two dogs of my own to fall back on you sonofagun.
The S model with the bits has better philips for sure..but still a bad saw..I'd try a bibury instead or something like it.
Dogs rule!
Okay, great review! You convinced me its cool but also that i dont need it. Im interested in the knife only option for 17 bux. Cheers!!!
🤔It's certainly interesting. Nice size scissors. Just not something to carry...maybe in your car. And think it's way overpriced compared to other similar class multi tools. JMHO
Let’s be honest the big name brands have been getting a pass for years. The steel in those is entry level at best and even in more extreme environments they are generally used for more peripheral tasks . Aa you alluded to I love the engineering component of these knives. I think they were smart enough to realize 99% use will be putting nightlight or toy batteries in or cutting paracord at a camp site.Even that echelon of people who do extreme survival and recommend taking a multi tool pretty much use it for the same thing: peripheral activities like tightening the screws on the handle of their $500 survival knife, or pulling out of splinter. But on that sweet spot of life that remains pretty constant regardless of where we are and what we are doing, this seems more practical. It won’t cut into your hand when you’re being Santas’s little helper, unscrewing toys for kids to put batteries in. Some of the namebrand’s have crappy locking mechanisms. I took a leather man tool into the Amazon rainforest, and after six days, could barely get it open because you have to shove your thumbnail into open it, and the dirt and grime made that next to impossible. In those environments, the trick is to clean it with diesel fuel but nobody had any diesel fuel so we’re pretty much opening at 400 markup. What annoys me is brands get to hold their position simply because they know no one will ever really use them for their proposed ability So with navy seal in mind, we all buy the expensive super tool that opens Christmas toys. We all buy the $800 knife to open boxes with. And the namebrand ES maintain their position because every once in a while if somebody really does use it for extreme survival and it breaks the money and replacements succeeds the money they make for Christmas toys
I loved the video. Your watch caught my eye though! Would you let me know what you have on please? Looks like the Hamilton khaki auto but can’t be sure. Regardless, nice watch. 👌
Also, that philips..is way different than mine 🤔, I wonder if that's the difference between the 802 and 802s
Yes, there is. Pete got the original one. You got the updated one with the bottle opener and squared head Phillips that fits their bit kit.
those scissors are a cool idea
99% of the time, the scissors on a multi-tool are so small and flimsy, you might as well just chuck them and cut whatever you're cutting with the plain-edge blade, save the weight. I do like the idea of the scissors in a multi-tool not being completely crap that's added in just to add to the number of tools!
I wonder how it compares to Gerber's dual force as I've been carrying that, loosely in my pocket, at work. I'm one of the outliers that prefers a snub/stubby plier; I've more often needed grip area/strength over reachability/finesse as well as only a few extra tools like beater blade, pry bar, and a good screw-/bit driver.
I'll definitely check out Dom's video but I think for now my endgame is the dual force; maybe until goat tools comes with a snub nose variant but their current/first release will be my first full size needle nose multitool so that'll definitely be an interesting comparison
Bonjour, merci pour cette très bonne vidéo
Leatherman should copy this tool, made with better steal and quality!
Looks well built and heavy as a brick.
Bricky
My wire cutters failed on my Gerber causing the pliers to stick ... really compromising the whole tool... so replaceable parts make sense to me.
That blade grind puts both of my leatherman charges to absolute shame. What's the point of S30v when your grind is dogish?
I never got another multitool, after I tried the Spirit X! I was getting one after another, to find one that would have better quality, performance and utility than the Leathermans... Actually I lied, because I got one more Spirit X for back up! PS It's the only multitool, that I got more than one.
Spirit X is my favorite too, though I wish sorely they made it so it came apart easily!
You gotta jump in eneloop batteries. Life saver for kids
Have you looked into the Nextool Flagship Pro a interesting multi tool with large scissors, large robust knife and a good set of pliers, only weak points are the other tools, but I think the Nextool is a much better quality than Roxon
I got the "Nextool" branded ones right after they came out a few years and they were terrible. The folded steel frame that made up the moveable scissor arm completely deformed the first time I tested them on some hard plastic and left it so that the arm just pushed down when squeezed, without the scissor blade actually moving. I loved the concept, and even the overall design, but they used 3cr all around and just weren't a useable tool. I think I paid $28, though.
It's nice to see that the scissors on these are built (somewhat) differently, but my experience with the Nextool ones, and the price, leave me not even remotely interested.
I'm really curious to see a long term review of them, though.
What is the sound in the background :D
Remember the teck-lok and Clip of Sanremmu/Ruike very innovativ but ignored i don't no ...
Is that Xenoblade music I hear for the outro?
You should take a look at the Ruike LD51 B.
I honestly prefer it over any Victorniox SAK style multitool because of its size and quality materials
It's also more than twice the price of a SAK. I'm not sure I'd use those tiny pliers for anything more robust than a roach clip either.
@@twatmunrowhat the heck is a roach clip
I’ve got a Bibury one. It was very cheap. £20 uk about. It works really well. It’ll be shit steel I bet.
can the scissors cut a penny?
please let me know :)
It looks like something a fifth grader would draw if he was drawing a multitool😂
I still really love my Victorinox Spirit XC, I use every tool on the thing quite frequently. IMO Victorinox are the best brand for designing small tools that can actually do a particular job, like the files for example which are seriously sharp and useful at removing material. Whereas I feel like most other brands tend to put steel approximations of actually good tools in their multitools.
Or you could just designate a pocket for it. As long as your not mountain climbing
hear me out.. Rope test
“And a full size set of scissors, pretty cool”. What? Bahaha
the can openers remain in multitools for like, industrial solvent cans or food service cans, not camping cans anymore
Algorithm comment
Wish it had a full size screwdriver instead
NextTool is better.. The music you added to this video is obnoxious.
now that the latherman patent is out, I'm waiting for Ganzo to make a multitool similar to the surge model
I got one for my mrs and she chucked her leather man at me
