I’d kind of like to see them do something a bit more with that corkscrew. Seems like a huge amount of wasted space for something that likely won’t be used that often unless you drink wine like every night and are never near a dedicated corkscrew. While it does have a nice bit adapter I’d kind of like to see it have something like a bit holder there and maybe just make the corkscrew with a 1/4 inch bit on the end so if you want the corkscrew it’s there but if you don’t use it often you can just take it off and use regular bits with it.
Very nice… as someone who is trying to get into multitools, your channel has been very helpful.. I’m not very picky about multitools, so Roxon seems like my best bet since I’m a little on the budget side.. Keep it up 👍
@@hvacbudget8600 good point, hahaha.. going to binge watch more of your videos(especially about Roxon) so i can find a gift for my folks.. thanks again
I loved my roxon storm. I carried mine at work every day for around 6 months plus (im a builder), until it was almost completely worn out. I used it to death.
Nextool’s Flagship Pro has is a much lighter version of this with a pocket clip. It has the big scissors, sheepsfoot blade and saw. Although the secondary tools aren’t quite as good (and no bit clip).
@@yooyist The Nextool version is much smaller, the weight is closer to a Victorinox Spirit (but different shape). But for a tool-kit size tool, I’d personally go with a surge clone (for the file).
I still hope they will issue an Elite version with a slighter better steel and a bit holder, something that Roxon doesn't appear to be a big fan of. But in this one there is enough room I think and that would be a nice addition... I don't care for the corkscrew neither, I am wine enthusiast but I can't think of any situation I would bring a bottle of wine with a cork and this tool. Anyway, I still prefer this platform to their more innovative tools like the Phantom or the forthcoming Flash.
I love the tool set on this one 😊. At least for the most part. I love the fact it have. Pliers Big scissors Bit driver As a part of its base. The knife is good but somewhat small The saw is good and cuts well. The file isn't bad but it's somewhat short. The bottle opener and the corkscrew are nicely implemented. I mean the opener serves as a lever. What I don't like is the 3 mini tools and the breaker. But I'm explaining why The can opener is terrible The Awl isn't great and the seat belt cutter is mostly used to strip wires Also most importantly they are hard to deploy. Then the glass breaker, it seems to work however I think this is wasted space here. So what would I do with this multitool if I wanted to improve it ? Well there are things who are average that might gain something and others that won't be touched. So I would get rid of the three mini tools and put something else Mini electrician blade and a pry tool that takes 2 slots. The bottle cap lifter will be more combo because it will be made to open cans as well and mini wrench with more metal Mini wrench from 5.5, 6, 7, and 8 Then the glass breaker will change to be a tiny hammer. I won't pretent this is perfect but for me it would be better than a leatherman or a gerber.
Remove the stupid glass breaker and corkscrew and put a locking bit driver instead there. And maybe a second bit under the bottle opener which is secured by it. Then this tool would be a little more interesting.
This multitool is rubbish. I got it yesterday and the bottle opener mechanism does not work. please check before you review things and say how wonderful they are.
As a corkscrew collector i think it’s quite interesting
Might pick one up. Great tools

Thanks!! There are so many great options!!

Nice little tool box. We like it.!
Thanks!

I almost bought it but the absence of a bit holder for tool this size is a big no no

@@FreedomFox1Good to know, I pictured it the same size as the Roxon !
@@yooyist take the black knight however the file isn't great and the tool is more fragile
@@blade9292Thanks, if only it had a can opener instead of its useless bottle opener.

Pliers

Excellent response!
Reminds me of the DAIcamping dl5, but I think the dl5 has a better tool set and every tool locks
Most of the important tools lock here.
Saw, knife and philips. The only tool that can be problematic is file, it's small and non locking.
Could do with something other than a corkscrew
It is unfortunately common for people to like corkscrews in multitool videos, so with the demand, they remain oddly common.
Remove the stupid glass breaker and corkscrew and put a locking bit driver instead there. And maybe a second bit under the bottle opener which is secured by it. Then this tool would be a little more interesting.
Great idea!!!
Indeed !
Mr. Kincaid, how does that Flex sample live up to your expectations so far?
Very well! I've been carrying it a lot and it's really good!
I have no idea how you compare this to a Leatherman. It has scissors that are incomparable to any Leatherman.. not to mention the glass breaker.
Needing to use your nails to open the tools is a no for me.
Cheap tools, some tools aren’t locking tools, cork screw, no 1/4 bit adapter, ……… No thank you!
