Thank you, we have tried many spray painting techniques, and this one is the least prone to paint peeling. Also, because the whistle accessories are made of magnesium rods, it is difficult to transport, so we can only find a special logistics company to transport them, and the transportation cost is very expensive. However, I am already producing accessories for sharpening sticks. Starting from next month, all magnesium rods for whistle accessories will be replaced with sharpening sticks. At that time, we can use the official logistics of the platform for transportation, and the transportation speed will be much faster. At the same time, after replacing with sharpening sticks, I will lower the selling price. Thank you
@@lifewasting This product has already been drawn up and arranged for factory production. It is tentatively planned to use imported M42 high-speed steel with higher hardness. I will release a video when the product is in stock
I ordered mine a few days ago in FDE. Excited to try it out. $10 shipping to CA btw. I picked up the SQT. While back and it’s been great for me. It’s not a heavy use tool for my needs but I use it once or twice a day at work primarily for the bit driver.
The one thing I like about this over the Signal is the fine edge blade, no serrations 👍🏼. With that said, I don’t think this is a Signal killer. Just looking at this, you can tell the quality is low and I don’t think it would hold up to the usage I’ve had with my Signal. I agree with @techcores, I would rather buy a used Leatherman.
mine just arrive, in tan color. The quality is great, feels light but sturdy... i buy it thanks to youre review, i didint even know it existed till you show it ahhahah, i was wating for a signal clone for a long time, was about to buy the gerber stake out (probably was a better option, but i wanted one whit pliers). any ways im happy whit the multitool, it was razor sharp out of the box by the way, is a good sign, and it cost me about 10 dlls cuz i use a cupon on aliexpress...
Appreciate the budget reviews. I have to say though, I've tried about all of them and to be honest, I'd rather buy a lightly used leatherman for the same price or just a little bit more. Every one of the SQT, Bibury, DL30, DL7, you name it, all had pretty bad fit and finish. I purchased 4 examples of the SQT 2048 and 2 2048-A....All but one 2048 had horrible plier alignment, sticking blades, etc. Both 2048-As the scales would move and the pliers handles would rotate when gripping, no matter how much you adjust the tool. The knife blades also all dull pretty quickly and the scissors on 5 of them were basically unusable except for 1-2mm of the edge. If these were $20 tools I'd understand, but pushing $40-55 and the Bibury pro is now $89.....yeah no. Get a gently used Leatherman on eBay and you'll have quality for a budget price. These look the part, but they really don't perform the part.
Have by myself and also seen about 100 different clones - not a single one has the problems you said. And ALL clone's scissors are way better than any LM. LM can't make usable scissors at all. All LM has a very soft blades. Nothing to see here, just get a real knife
I feel like if you don't use something like a leatherman or victorinox you won't realize the quality of life you lose with the cheaper tools. I never realized it until I started using a Signal, when I tried to get cheaper clones they just felt like meh to use. Now I use an Arc, I will still swap to my signal or carry a SAK but I won't touch the swiss wave clone I bought.
@@michaelmartin2262 wrong, Wave has not any premium feels. Cheap steel, outsourced parts, illegal mexican workers at the plant. Victorinox is a different thing. No chinese parts, no migrants at the plant
Nice review, interesting tool, great value. For me this is the most desirable Chinese clone yet. I gotta admit I do like a MT with attractive scales. And I agree that Ali Express have improved their shipping times - probaly becasue they now have to compete with Temu who are much quicker.
I've been using my Signal hammer about as hard as functionally possible with no failure. Pretty impressive, to be honest. The saw is also solid. I'm now carrying a 5" Knipex, Micro Wera driver and a spring nail punch instead of the Signal. Both this 3-tool set up and the Signal are great and I'd happily carry either.
I do like the fact these companies try some custom elements with their clones. I wish they do a similar tool but with the following. Instaed of the whistle a 1/4" square drive for sockets. In the hammer a 11mm ratchet driver so yeah it increases the hammer size. 4 long slots, knife, saw, scissors and file with chisel. As for the mini tools 2 flats combo tools and a 5mm 3d philips A low profile socket set
@@richardsullivan1776 Thank you sir! Appreciate your support of the channel! The US Constitution I have is actually on antiqued paper. It is almost weathered or rippled parchment. I found these at an antique store but Amazon sells these as well.
This is fantastic and I've been waiting for one for years but why is the skeletool not being made? I know there was one for a while but hasn't been picked up again.
@@hvacbudget8600 very true I just personally don't like scalpel and razor blades on multi tools. One of the reasons I like these cheaper clones is that you can really beat on them and don't get too upset if you break it. Can't really use a thin razor blade to do some prying.
@@thornallen9687Agreed, the scalpel blades are probably designed more for the detailed wood carving outdoorsman. The levering and hard use case is the hardcore workplace 👍
apparently is due to the regulations for sparking material that requires specific shipper. in another comment they mention a future version that will replace the ferro rod & ship normally (presumably free).
How do you know it’s an amazing value? Why didn’t you use the ferro rod? These are genuine questions from someone that watched a 10 minute video and feels like they didn’t learn anything new.
@@Kayakasaurus I can't answer this properly as I didn't do the review, butttt. If you have watched past reviews you will know the quality isn't a Leatherman or Gerber but this brand makes half decent clones that for most mild users will suit them fine. As far as the ferro rod goes, if you are in to doing stuff outdoors I would never recommend these little ones that come on multi tools or in wrist bands. Go buy yourself a thick 6 inch long one. Better sparks and will last way longer easier to use.
15€ in aliexpress... Is good for the price, you cant want more... Jaja

Searching for double sided 4mm bits that do not cost 10 bucks a piece since i go my Cybertool. But i'm not so desperate for it to buy the tool for the bitkit, yet. ;o) Wasn't DAYOKU also the company that made the first forged pliers in a multi tool?
Would this work? amzn.to/4gSCPmW I don't have a cybertool yet but I thought most precision screwdrivers were 4mm or close. Also the Klein screwdriver - amzn.to/3ZW3MjK might be 4mm but I forget if it is or not. The Dakoyu and some other brands of the same tool do seem to be the only multitool plier heads machined by CNC out of Steel blocks that I have heard of.

@@DAYOKU74 Great information! Thank you!
@DAYOKU74 Make a inline ratchet similar to leathermans, everyone will buy it !!
Also get rid of that gap in the wire cutters, nobody wants it, that's copying a bad design!

About gap: clones usually have one flat and one gaped cutter parts. Maybe this time they forget and mistakingly put two with gaps lol

Love the color- and the carabiner. Wish more pocket knives attached or removeable carabiners
This looks great and will probably order soon. I do wish, though, that someone would make a skeletool clone .
Waiting for the day
@@FaithThruGraceinChristAloneI'm waiting for a crunch clone
Besides the 5mm bits which is an odd choice, the hole for the bits in the hammer is creating a weak point in the hammer.
The moment you said 5mm bits, I was like: "I'm Out!"
This is fantastic and I've been waiting for one for years but why is the skeletool not being made? I know there was one for a while but hasn't been picked up again.
@@thornallen9687 The skeletool probably will eventually get recloned. The Havalon evolve I believe is the best option available right now.

How is rhe quality though... I mean... The signal is ment to be a bush/survival tool right. Can we trust this product over the Leatherman original?
Well i did gave reall hell to my dakoyu shadow And IT stood well. Can't Tell you all of them do, but mine Is awesome.
good alternative

That huge cutout at the base of the SAW is going to cause warranty problems 🫤
They're casting imperfections on the hammer head.
