To me you have to have a lot of courage to modify a tool. You did a really good job on the modifications. I bought a SOG Powerlitre instead of the Powerpint so I know SOG doesn't sell cases/pouches for these models. If you had a case/pouch for your Powerpint you could buy the Leatherman saw blade and diamond file set for the Surge and carry them in the case/pouch so you can use the diamond file more easily to sharpen blades. I bought the Powerlitre instead of the Powerpint because my father was in the US American army military based in Germany for many years and when we visited our relatives in Austria they always had all different kinds of corkscrews around just in case someone wanted to open a bottle of wine. I don't even drink wine very often but I want to be ready in case anyone else wants to open a bottle of wine. In the USA most people are beer or hard liquor drinkers so there isn't this preoccupation - like I have - to always have a corkscrew with you. The Powerlitre also has a lever that locks the rear of the multi-tool together so that if you use the bit driver you don't have to keep pressure continuously on both ends of the tool to keep the hex bit locked in the bit driver. The Powerpint doesn't have that. Is the saw blade long enough for you? That's a really good idea you had for the 4mm hex bits. Best wishes in your multi-tool journey or obsession whatever it turns out to be.
HOW did you put those custom functions together? I can't even take my powerpint apart, the torx screws hold together like they're welded! I already broke two bits!
I completely agree the scissors on these are terrible, however another video explained part of the problem is they’re left handed scissors so need to be pushed the opposite way to tighten the two blades together. It has made them almost usable to me knowing that.
Great mods. I’ve dremeled the hook and bottle opener to be more useful on mine. Want to remove the pocket clip but getting bot sides unscrewed at the same time is a bear. What are your tricks?
Good mods 👍I have powerpint and I agree that the scissors are useless and the actual knife is not much better than useless.I do, however, think it is too small for a wood saw option. Otherwise it is a handy tool because it can do a lot for it's size.
Great modifications! I wish I had the skill to do this. Saw is great and the stock scissors stink. I wonder if another multitool flat head might fit in there? I heard that they snap too
That's exactly how I wished this tool came. Especially the wood saw. I don't need two different knives. I need one. I MUCH rather have one knife + a saw than two knives.
Веры криэйтив!!! I liked the woodsaw addition very much, and the diamond file - great idea. And that super-sharp awl (шило) - very handy. (I would want to see a thick bushcraft knife blade added, like Mora Eldris blade at least 2mm thick, scandy grind. I wonder what's the weight after all your mods? Thanks!
And since I tried the hook now: It definitely does NOT cut fabric - I tried with a pair of jeans I was throwing away anyway. It does not cut at all.Maybe it needs some sharpening, but it looks pretty sharp to me already, I just think the angle is too steep to cut fabric.
Good video. The mods I have done are just the obvious bottle opener tip which NEEDS to be ground down to a flat head screwdriver. Incomprehensible how it doesn't come that way. Second, I added a little magnet to hold it closed. The scissors are useless. Incredible how bad they are. Reviews point this out all the time, but none seem to clearly capture the fact that they aren't just bad, they are WORTHLESS. I don't know how any self respecting manager at SOG would put such junk on a nice tool. Wish there was a way to improve it other than to fab up a replacement.
Автор видео говорит, что ножницы взяты у реплики. И мне кажется, что это формат 74мм., только обрезаны режущие полотна, для возможности их складывания. 58мм., к.м.к. будут слишком малы для установки в данный тул.
Забавно как люди явно с другой стороны планеты просят написать где купить такие детали, а ответ простой НИГДЕ, иногда приходится поработать головой и руками
the perfect powerpint right there. SOG needs to take notes from this
I bought a SOG PowerPint for its size, for its pliers, scissors and for the hex bit driver. I am very satisfied with this multitool.
how can you be satisfied with the scissors?
really really cool!

another option for saw blades is to use a jigsaw blade in the bit holder. Especially with the lock in the powerlitre, it should work really well.
Man, you don’t need to have a corkscrew to open the wine bottle - you need just a knife, please search this method on TH-cam. It’s simple as that!
Пока что лучшее видео с переделкой данного мультитула что я видел, акцент мое почтение))
The best multi tool review I’ve ever seen
You should share where to buy parts to carry out these mods.
Actually the best PowerPint mod 🙂
The saw is brilliant! I'm going to make that to.
Been pondering a saw mod much like yours and you're the first person I've seen showing it in a video. Thanks a lot, man!
Where did you get the diamond file to fit in the power pint? Good information.
HOW did you put those custom functions together? I can't even take my powerpint apart, the torx screws hold together like they're welded! I already broke two bits!
Nice work! I enjoyed your video and your explanation was excellent

Pretty amazing! Looking forward to any nehind the scenes and future videos. Cheers and happy holidays!
Thanks for the inspiration! You too have a nice day
That mini bit kit is the best
Hello! Can you show the scissor mod in the pivot section? where did you source the diamond file? Great results!
May be scissors from Victorinox 58 mm will be better choice?
That saw mod is why I checked out your vid. Wished ya had a vid of how ya did it
Awesome job modding your tool. I only modded my file into an extended flat head driver and put thumb plates on the blades.
great job👏👏👏👍

Крестовую отвёртку можно немного подточить что бы могла заходить в глубокие отверстия
Great job!
Well done!
can you explain how you put a saw into this?
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Веры криэйтив!!! I liked the woodsaw addition very much, and the diamond file - great idea. And that super-sharp awl (шило) - very handy. (I would want to see a thick bushcraft knife blade added, like Mora Eldris blade at least 2mm thick, scandy grind.
I wonder what's the weight after all your mods?
Thanks!
What tools you used to modify the bottle opener? Thanks!
How about adding sak tools into this?
Классный акцент! А на русском обзоры будут?
Could you make s videnon how you made the saw? Would it be possoble ona powerlitre?
And since I tried the hook now: It definitely does NOT cut fabric - I tried with a pair of jeans I was throwing away anyway. It does not cut at all.Maybe it needs some sharpening, but it looks pretty sharp to me already, I just think the angle is too steep to cut fabric.

please what bit adaptor is that
Wiha
Interesting mutitool from SOG. Today'ss MSRP is 54 US Dollars.
At the 1:48 mark, I like the file a later the micro bits at the 7:18 mark.
Приветствую, а от чего или где, взяли такую алмазную пилку/напильник ?
По-моему пилка для ногтей, судя по толщине.
Ножницы с какой версии викторинокса?91 мм?с 58 мм не станут без обрезки ?
Автор видео говорит, что ножницы взяты у реплики. И мне кажется, что это формат 74мм., только обрезаны режущие полотна, для возможности их складывания. 58мм., к.м.к. будут слишком малы для установки в данный тул.
Luckily my scissors work awesome. Great video though!
