Simply the best... February 13, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Having been a huge fan of my Schrade Multi-Tool, I was devastated when it came up missing. My favorite feature is the fact that I don't have to open the pliers to access the other tools. My second favorite feature is the price. I had forgotten how affordable it was compared to some of the Leatherman and Gerber tools. I went to Dick's, Lowes, Home Depot, called Cabella's and Gander Mountain...no luck. But Amazon had it in stock with quick shipment and I was back in business. One reason why I didn't rate this a "5"...The metal doesn't seem quite as high quality as my older Schrade when it came to the shell. The individual tools are still A+. I don't know if it was a change that took place when Taylor purchased the rights to manufacture/distribute the tools or not, but it isn't as good. The sad ending to the story is that I found my original tool within a week of ordering its replacement. Guess I have a back-up now, and I couldn't ask for a better one.
Awesome awesome awesome November 29, 2007 I had this knife for 7 years and just recently had it confiscated by airport security when I accidentally brought it in my carry-on. Talk about a disappointment!
The think is solid as a rock. You can flip the pliers open like a butterfly knife when you're working on something and only have one available hand. I found that I used the pliers more than anything else, but the knife, saw, screwdriver, can / bottle openers all work great too.
It served me well for 7 years and I was sick to have it taken by TSA. I'm glad to see that I can by another one though. Thank goodness!
Shrade Tough-Tool. Very good value October 7, 2007 I have owned this multi-tool for about five years and its still in great shape. This is a VERY good tool for the money. I just recently purched another one as a gift for a friend.
Shrade Tools are best March 27, 2007 I've had one of these for years. Over the past holidays, that one was misplaced for over two weeks. Since I couldn't do without it at work, I found a replacement at Amazon. I was elated because Shrade makes a very good tool and I knew that Shrade had gone under. After it arrived, we were taking down the Christmas tree and there it was, behind the tree. Now I have two of them. You might say I have one for my next lifetime on the planet. The new one was put away and I'm still using the old one which is just as good as the new one, only, the older one is,(broken in!)
