Thank you!

I use put wallet in the back pocket but after being a delivery driver it started messing with my back. I've been putting it in my front pocket now, back feels better

Brother Ben, what sold me on this is the quick access beer opener.

I cannot believe none of these excavation companies on youtube properly dig down and then backfill in 6"-12" compacted lifts for these dirt foundations. Unfuqing believable.

I am sure your viewers are smart enough to know this, but it goes without saying...Empty the gas can completely first!

3:11 trying going clockwise with it in your right hand. works better imo

This seems to be an EDC collectors toy.

👍

I prefer the kalmyk loop, looks similar, easier.

It's not a key ring it's to put a lanyard on it

I used to be knottarded and now in my twilight years I've gotten about a half dozen pretty much remembered from memory and can tie them with my eyes closed. Bowline, cowboy bowline, eskimo bowline, marline spike hitch, clove hitch, constrictor knot, alpine butterfly scaffold knot, taut line hitch , truckers hitch, ashley stopper knot. This seems like a cool knot, but it doesn't seem like its going to add much to my repertoire. Any suggestions for me?

I used to have a rebar. One of the best multitools I've ever had. But there were somethings I never liked about it. I did not like having to open the tool to get at the inner tools. And when using the pliers how my palms were sticked by the tools. When I ended up breaking the knife blade (By using it in ways everyone says to never use a knife lol) I trashed it.The rebar was a good tool. And is perfect for some people. But for me I found the few downsides not to my liking. I did love that it was so strong and capable for the price point. I certainly abused that tool and it never flinched. Aside from the knife blade when I used it as a pry bar lmao. Luckily I still have both eyes, cause my safety squints worked lol.

Did you make that red angle square?

I have had several multi tools over the years from Gerber sog and Leatherman including the wave and charge tti recently I got the Rebar and it is my favorite ever.. perfect size and Pocket clip is not necessary as it fits perfectly in the small 5th pocket in my jeans

Just bought my first cheap zippo type lighter. Love it already. Gonna buy a legit zippo on payday.

Would love to see a Spirit x plus v an arc

I really think that curve in the Victorinox scissor blades is exactly what gives them the advantage, and it makes a lot of sense why if you think about it. It really maximizes the direct cutting force against the material being cut despite the tiny blades. The only reason why the Surge scissors can compete is because they’re so much larger, which is why you don’t see that curve on full sized scissors, they don’t need it. Perhaps Victorinox has patented the curve, but if at all possible, Leatherman should really get on board with it. Victorinox does also have more precise manufacturing standards and uses better materials, though, so maybe that has something to do with it.

Amazing love to watch 👏👏👏👏

I use the awl for plastic packaging. The opener on the p4 is good not boxes or tape. Even envelopes the awl work good for blister packages

Decent video. I wish you would have shown every function in use. And I don’t understand why the key hole doesn’t have a function other than holding the ring. It should be a hex too.

compact for edc

Well, it seems I’m buying the Victorinox Spirit cause it has a perfect quality control. I’m not risking hundreds of dollars for this crab. Thanks everyone for their commentaries.

As an accountant I carry a modded Free P4, I love it and I am a tinkerer even though I work a more "white collar" job. Love the channel!!

Superb explanations. Thanks for this

I just paid $10 for a multi tool, from OT- very good

This is obviously not a 4:1 mechanical advantage the way he has it set up. The evidence its not 4:1 is the first loop of rope never moves as seen by the yellow rope pattern not moving at all. If it was a 4:1 then you would see the yellow marks on all 4 strands of rope moving. He made a 2:1 mechanical advantage

Things I never knew existed but would love to have.

Hard to come up with the perfect mix of tools/form/function etc, but I do know that I'd LOVE there to be more models with the new package opener, and also with the nail file/cleaner (also works as small phillips). And call me crazy, but I'd love more models to NOT have a 'main' blade (something like the Electrician's little blade will suffice).

No to 154cm blade. If you are upgrading the blade, then really upgrade it. S30v or better (magnacut etc)..please.

useful

This does not work on a 2012. Get your facts straight.

I'm an ex EMT, long before the "raptor" was invented, and I'm an RN now, almost retired. We used to use a spring loaded centre punch to break windows, and we made a duct tape "handle" on the window glass to pull it outward. That might sound like it's long and laborious as a task, but with TRAINING, it's not, and you can do it in seconds. IMO the spring loaded center punch is best. Someone needs to make a pair of scissors and combine it with a spring loaded center punch. And there are still occasional tanks without the handle thingies so you need the Oxygen Wrench. The ring cutter needs a curve to it, like a regular ring cutter tool does. And if needs to be"deeper" and beefed up a bit for some of harder metals that some rings are made of today. Put all of that in a tool today, and you've got something. And it needs to be affordable on an EMT/RN/Paramedic budget. Just my take. Meanwhile, I've got the Chinese knockoff of the old style raptor in the center console of both of my cars, along with a small roll of duct tape, and a pair of outdoor work gloves. I've never cursed a tool that was a cheaper version and yet got me out of a "situation" on the road, so there's that in the glovebox, and a cheap set of Harbor Freight tools in the trunk. There's also a basic first aid kit. EVERY car needs these things. Otherwise, you and anyone else that you might need to rescue are SOL, because if you think that you are Okie Dokie with just a bumper jack and a spare tire or inflation kit, you are just kidding yourself. Be Prepared. And SUPER FINALLY: A POCKET TOOL should be able to fit IN YOUR POCKET, and while lottle hands can fit into LARGE handles, BIG HANDS (OR ANY HANDS WEARING GLOVES!) can't fit into Small handles! I wear size 8 1/2 SURGICAL gloves, and im not the only one! And I'm left handed!

What about scissors?

I got a surge a few years ago and within a week the detent on the plier handles was gone. Instead of snapping into place when opened it just slides open and closed with just a little constant friction. There is also play in the plier head that allows the wire cutters to not always contact each other. The scissors have quite a bit of play. And the plier head rubs a lot on the handles. My awl and bit exchanger do have some play. It has been working fine for years but those issues are present.

Regarding the stiffness of the pivot on the pliers, I share in the frustration. I've re-purchased the same models over the years, namely the Surge and Wave, and never had issues with them being so stiff when put under pressure. This has only happened with my recent purchases of both of these tools. It's pretty annoying having to twist the handles literally almost every time I put pressure on the plier head just to get them to open again.

thanks hoss

Is that Grey part in the middle plastic? I expected better from leatherman

Thank you sir !

I've got Leatherman and Gerber and the Leatherman's feel milquetoast while the Gerber's feel tool-like. Both great, I prefer to carry Gerber.

Cool tip to leave the extra flints in there.

Is it possible to make the arc into spring loaded ?

Good idea! I thought i had to mount the vent next to the opening!

Why does the can opener look beat to hell?

Thanks for sharing

Wow that's great now I need to buy a 2 by 4 straightener where can I get one?

Just a quick question boss what is the best way to store Zippo lighter for a long time without use thank you in advance for your response I appreciate you

Good morning just a curious question how long after you fill Zippo lighters can you leave them stored away without use and it still last and be good thank you for reading this God bless

Been using the exec for decades. Thought it was my little secret. Slim in the pocket and with a little imagination it's indispensable. What's with you guys doing these videos swiping your fingers across the tools. Stop it! It's not safe or good for the steel! Dang, you guys know this....

Your organization is top notch 👌 I would put the office on a mezzanine
