One of the best

Rating:*****
Gerber has done it again. I've owned a few Gerber tools and all have outlasted my ability to keep track of them. This one combines Gerber's famous one-handed opening pliers with one-handed-opening knife blades. I've only had it a few days, but it's solid, well-crafted, and on par with the fine workmanship of the other Gerber products I've owned.

The blades are easy to deploy, the right size, and well-designed. Not only would I recommend this to a friend, but I would recommend this tool to anyone. We should all have a tool like this so that we may "fend for ourselves."

Negative Reviews:

Pliers get stuck sometimes

Rating:**
I have had two of these multi-tools and have experienced problems with both.If the tool is stored in the sheath with the pliers facing down, the pliers will slowly slip out of the locked position and be visible outside of the sheath. This is not normally and issue, but it can cause damage to gear if you don't notice that the pliers are exposed. The only way to resolve this issue was to store the tool with the pliers pointing up in the sheath.The other issue was that sometimes after using the pliers they would not unlock to be stowed back inside the tool. I had to repeatedly hit them on a piece of wood to get the release mechanism unstuck.The knife blades and other tools worked well, but the plier problems caused me to return this multi-tool.[...].I think I will stick with the Leatherman Wave.
