SOG Specialty Knives & Tools *S31-N Paratool Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is the tool I carry day in and out because of the hex bolt featureI've customized by removing the straight blade (There is still a seratedblade) and replaced it with a saw and a seatbelt cutter. I sail competivelyand the seatbelt cutter gives me a safe way to cut a line. With the hookend on the blade the line won't come off until its fully cut through. (Ohyeah, the basic knife comes with one open slot for customization.)
Thisis one of the best designs for the pliers. As you can see in the photo thesmooth part of the handles is on the outside so when you bear down on thepliers the handle doesn't cut into your hand. Also as you can see the headtilts. You can get some pressure at the tip at this angle, and you can pickup those little screws that dropped behind the exhaust manifold withoutburning your fingers.
Disadvantages: No sizzors. The file blade dosen'thave that grove for sharpening hooks, the tab for popping out the plierhead pokes holes in my pockets so I have to wear it on my belt. Because thehandles don't do that "leatherman T" the ruler is short, just thelength of one of the handles. I did a sawing test in the woods one day anda 3" blade is too short for firewood. I've kept it incase I need tocut away something while sailing. Otherwise you'll still need a regularsaw.
The sizzors problem I fixed by getting a leatherman Micra. The restI just live with.

Loggerhead Tools ImmIX 10X Multitool - Model# BX10-6NN-01B Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I used to carry a well known name brand multi-tool until I found a couple superior options ( based on 30+ years as a fire fighter, police officer and bomb disposal ( EOD ) technician ). The two best multitools i have found suited for emergency service in my opinion are the SOG Powerlock S60 Made in the USA and the Victorinox Swiss Army Knife SwissTool RS made in Switzerland, both with lifetime warranties.

Sooner or later all good things must come to an end and us old guys get put out to pasture to allow the young blood(s) in an organization rise to the top. Semi retired now I find my self more in the teaching mode of the nuts + bolts of how things work rather than beingon the front lines leading the charge.Consequently with more free time to work around the house, truck and and other boy "toys" I took a serious look at the two multitools I had carried over the years and evaluated them against getting something more fitting for my current needs, something that would be used everyday, lighter weight and not have all the life saving tools featured on my previous EDC ( Every Day Carry ) multitools I had been carrying on the job.It should be noted there is a SOG S60 in the console of my Avalanche and a"RS"in my wife's Honda Pilot glove-box just in case !
Looking at a number of choices among multitools now being offered- and there are a lot to look at ( Made in USA and a lifetime warranty - were primary selection factors along with the tools functionality ) my choice for a new EDC multitool was the ImmiX-10manufactured by LoggerheadTools in Chicago, IL,( [...]). I had seen some of the Loggerhead tools on the TV show "COOL TOOLS"on the DIY Network, and the selection of tools offered seemed to fit my current semi-retired requirements. Loggerhead manufacturers a number of quality multitools and one really needs to take a close hard look at their personal requirements before making their selection(s) on a new multitool(s).My opinion based on functionality, quality, price and reputation the tools manufactured in the USA by Loggerhead need to be on everyones short list when looking at a multitool you will use on a daily basis.

My choice from the Loggerhead lineup was an ImmiX -10with a corrosion resistant electrolysis nickel plated body. The tool has a number of functions that I deemed necessary in a multitool to fit my current requirements. #1 was the two high-carbon, stainless-steel, retractable knife blades - one with a plain edge and the other with a serrated edge with both measuring 2.5".The 6 inch Bionic Wrench(tm) design covers 14 metric and standard wrench sizes, 1/4 inch to 9/16 inch and 7 mm to 14 mm, combining the versatility of an adjustable wrench with the simplicity of pliers, a real improvement for me over the needle nose / bull nose pliers offered in other multitools - and the complicated imported adjustable wrenches now making their way to the USA. The two handles on the ImmiX-10 lock to form a powerful, ergonomic, magnetic bit driverwith a torque enhancing "pistol grip" which enables you to comfortably and confidently apply the right amount of pressure to task at hand. The ImmiX-10storesthe included 10 of the most popular types and sizes of screwdriver heads (slotted, Phillips, Torx, and Robertson) inside one of the handles. The ImmiX-20 offers 20 bits stored in the handles but you forfeit the two knife blades. This multitool is what I consider a full size tool ( NOT a useless mini - multitool), with plenty of room to grip the handles and make the tool do it's thing, I'm a big guy with big paws and no way can I overpower this tool to the point something is going to bend, break or snap under normal use.The ImmiX-10 comes with a QUALITY ( made in the USA ) durable synthetic carrying case with a heavily stitched leather belt loop for vertical carry. There is enough room in the Immix-10 case for me to also carry my small capped Fisher Space pen AND a 4 inch steel prybar - so they are very handy and convenient when needed. The ImmiX-10 is also lighter to carry on your belt than the previous models mentioned ( S60 + RS ).

It did not take long for me to find projects for this workhorse to get going - the 10 rusted anchor bolts on my screenroom were the first place that the tool attacked and it performed without a problem. Looking for other things to do - a quick adjustment to my grandsons bicycle handle bars was accomplished along with making sure the wheel / axle nuts were snug and the seat was properly adjusted. Installing two replacement light fixtures in the garage made good use of the integral magnetic bit holder for tightening screws and serrated knife blade for stripping wires. Next was cutting off some vines that had wrapped around the tines on my rototillerand tightening a loose screw holding the air filter in place. The ImmiX-10 is just a fun , useful, powerful multitool to carry on your belt.

The ImmiX-10 is available on line from [...], www.amazon.comand others.

Crescent Adjustable Wrench 4 Inch Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I own Crescent "Forged Crestoloy Steel" wrenches I've had for as long as 50 years - that were made by the old Crescent Tool Company in Jamestown, New York. Three are 10" versions that have seen heavy use since I was a kid. My older model Crescents have a polished side face instead of the new machined tooling marked face on this new model. They also have a threaded screw pin that holds the rotational worm gear. That rotating gear is also spring loaded just as are the newer Crescents by Cooper Tool.

As far as the metal, it looks the same in both the old and new versions. But, the handles are thicker in the new version by Cooper Tools. Machine work in both cases is also of the same tolerances and gives the new wrenches the same proven strength and feel of the older ones that were forged at the original Crescent Tool Company in New York. I'm sure either version would break, using a cheater pipe on the handle for added leverage, rather than ever bend a handle. In fact, I have used cheater pipes with mine whenever needed - but I've never broken a Crescent wrench by made Crescent Tool Company. I have broken and bent those made by Proto, Kobalt, and other Chinese manufacturers where I was accustomed to using a Crescent Tool Company wrench without damage - and all my old Crescents still work just as well as they did when new, athough their finish is quite worn now. Incredibly, they still don't look that bad after so many years of hard use, and stand well beside my new ones. I can also say I've never seen a speck of rust on my "Crestoloy" Crescent wrenches - despite they have seen use in wet environments and have been left in stored in damp areas. Although, I have sprayed them with WD-40 now and then through the years.

While some may say the new pin design for the rotating worm gear (in the Cooper Tools model) is less desireable, it has its merits. The older design allowed the disassembly of the tool for better cleaning of it if needed, but that created its own problem. By having the unstaked pin, the screw could work its way out and allowed the wrench to fall apart. I know, I lost one good Crescent wrench in just that manner once, and it prompted me to stake the screw pins in on my remaining older Crescents many years ago. The problem of a lost pin has never happened again - since I staked them in. Crescent wrenches like these by Crescent Tool and Cooper Tools are truly extremely rugged tools with unexpected accuracy and strength. Because of this, I have purchased the entire set from 4" to the 15" and 18" models. The 12" here is the most versatile for me as I use it most. Sure, I have hundreds of sockets and closed and open end-wrenches, including pipe wrenches and Vise Grips, and Channel Lock pliers, but the original Crescent is the most universal and reliable wrench you can rely on when it's not convenient to carry many wrenches around, and you don't want to damage a fitting.

If anyone had asked me if they could have improved on the original Crescent, I would have said no. But, the new wider handle does feel better - especially in my now old and arthritic hands. No the handles aren't polished, but are more of a satin finish - just like they've always been. But then again, The original Crescent wrench was designed to be a rugged tool that saved time looking for and getting the proper size wrench - while providing a close tolerance fit to nuts and bolts that didn't damage them. That's an accomplishment that made the tool world famous. You'll pay more for these "original" Crescents, but the price is worth it over all the competition.

One tip: While the Crescent jaw head makes a handy hammer, don't use the jaw end of a Cresent wrench for a hammer - it's possible to burr the metal on the open end of the housing for the sliding jaw, which can prevent the easy ability to close the jaw for smaller jaw openings. Hold the tool by the jaw head and use the handle as a striking tool if needed.

I currently have a set of star bits but they dont have any holes in them.well for the T-10 on the XBOX the little holes aren't needed.Duh. my bad...It's only for the T-8 that is used for your controller.The long wells for the screw made it impossible to fit normal sized star bits 1/4 inch bits down there.So, this isn't really needed if you already have regular sized bits for the XBOX case.but if you dont --- this is a cheap alternative.

Product Description:
If you want to open your PS3, then you need a tamper resistant torx size 10 screwdriver to remove the first screw. After that, the rest of the screws require a standard phillips screwdriver. Why buy a whole set, when you need just one screwdriver? This driver has a small hole in the tip, to bypass the post in a tamper resistant torx screw, like the ones found in the OEM Playstation 3. The screwdriver handle is easy to use, the yellow part turns freely in your palm while you are applying pressure to it. Handle is also ergonomic for ease of use. It starts with a high quality handle, but, the metal shank is Chrome Vanadium Hardened Steel (CR-V) 6150. This is high quality metal. We chose this metal so that the screwdriver will last longer.

Product Description:
GSA-approved, the S63-N EOD PowerLock multi-tool with satin finish and V-Cutter showcases SOG's sophisticated style and military-grade performance. The S63-N comes with many EOD-specific features, including a crimper device within the handle that allows for uninterrupted use of the plying surface.

Durable components deliver job-specific performance. View larger.
Combining Compound Leverage and PowerLock Technology for Safe, Easy Use
Driven by an exclusive interlocking gear system, SOG's patented Compound Leverage technology is a legend in folding tools. With the proprietary technology's increased leverage, SOG pliers generate twice the power of their conventional counterparts, minimizing the amount of hand pressure that is required to get the most torque out of the tool. And using SOG's PowerLock technology, the S63-N features removable, pivoting handle covers that improve hand comfort and allow for additional pressure on tough jobs.
SOG is the only company to apply Compound Leverage technology to EOD-specific (Explosive Ordnance Disposal) multi-tools. This technology makes the S63-N an ideal tool for crimping blasting caps and demolition cord with minimal hand pressure. The position of the crimper device within the handle is an EOD-specific feature unique to SOG. This design serves to minimize collateral damage to the crimper and allows you to have uninterrupted use of the plying surface (unlike other brands' tools). Additionally, the crimper produces non-flaring, high pull-out strength crimps that meet government fuse well specifications.
The S63-N is GSA approved.
Heavy-Duty Components Meet Professional Needs
With over a dozen components, from pliers to screwdrivers, and industrial-grade, quality design, the S63-N includes everything a professional contractor or casual do-it-yourselfer needs, including a V-Cutter that can cut seatbelts, paracord, fishing line, electrical cable sheathing, and more. The S63-N also features the first foldable 1/4-inch drive that can turn sockets and hex screwdriver tips (when used with the use of a standard adapter sold separately).
Ergonomic, Lightweight Design Ensures Comfortable Use
Like all the multi-tools in the PowerPlier Series, the S63-N PowerLock multi-tool can be opened and closed with a one-handed flip of the wrist. All tool components are easy to access and lock open with the easy-to-use, patent-pending Piano-Locks. One of the simplest and safest locking devices ever engineered for a multi-tool, Piano-Locks let you simply press the back of the lock to close the component into the handle.
The S63-N 's smooth handle surfaces promote comfort on even the toughest jobs. Additional features include gear covers and hex bolts that provide easy access to the tools. And at just 9.6 ounces, this multi-tool is lightweight and easy to carry. A nylon pouch with belt loop is included for convenient portability.
This multi-tool is backed by a lifetime warranty that protects against defects in manufacturing and materials.

Gerber 22-01771 14-Function EVO Multi Tool Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I do a a bit of tech work at my community college in maintaining their audio equipment.I'm also a hobbyist and a bass guitarist, and in all three areas the EVO has provided admirable service.I've had this for roughly six months now, using it daily for whatever task I can think of at the moment.

Pros: -Durable construction; only tool that's shown wear is the serrated blade (that I pretty much abuse to save the wickedly sharp plain edge anyway)
-Spring-loaded handles and component locks.Also, the scissors are spring-loaded for extra cutting power.
-More compact than most multi-tools, making it more convenient for day-to-day carry
-Broad selection of useful items, all-outboard components.

Cons: -Screwdriver tips could have been selected better; for medium-sized screws, the smaller one is too small to get a good grip and the larger one is too thick to even fit in the divot.But they still both have their uses.
-It's a bit difficult to get the smaller screwdriver out at first; nails are recommended.
-The sheath should have a different fastener mechanism; the Velcro strap on mine has recently worn down to the point where it will pop open with the slightest motion.And Gerber doesn't sell separate sheaths that fit this model (one downside to its size)

Overall: This is the first multi-tool I've owned, and I am quite happy with it (despite the sheath part.)If you work in a field that demands heavy repair work on a daily basis, you could go for something larger and even more robust.I highly recommend it to guitarists and any musician who does maintenance on their instruments, as well as theater techies, hobbyists, handymen, and anyone who wants a versatile and compact tool for day-to-day tasks.
