DEWALT DG5173 Heavy-duty Tool Holder Review

DEWALT DG5173 Heavy-duty Tool Holder
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I use a utility knife and various marking devices while working.I don't often say this, but I think this tool holder is perfect for my needs.Four pockets and a metal tape measure holder.Not mentioned in the description is a small, yet strong, loop which is stitched to one of the pockets. I have a small carabiner attached to this for anything else I may need to carry (keys etc).This product is extremely well made.Heavy stitching at all stress points and nothing about it that can't be considered durable.I can carry the utility knife, two marking devices, tape measure, multi-purpose Leatherman tool and keys with this holder.It's a little over 9" long and attaches to your belt via a belt loop.A strong product which I have come to appreciate. I think it works better after it relaxes a little with use.I would have paid twice the price for the service it has given.
____________________

Well, it's been over two months since I purchased this tool holder.My most recent project has been adding railings and balusters to an existing 16 X 22' deck.Eight 4 X 4s lagged on to the inside ledger board also.I hired a local teenager for a day to help set the 4 X 4s plumb and level.All this required much measuring, marking and maneuvering both on top, and under the deck.This tool holder proved indispensable on this job.It allowed me to carry the pencil, tape measure and ratchet wrench even while lying on the ground under the low deck platform.I ordered - and have since given - another of these tool holders to my young helper.He's as pleased as I am with the performance of this DeWalt product.I didn't think I could be any happier with the holder, after the initial post, but I am.

I'm amazed at how many times I've used this tool and I've only had it a week.Everything works as prescribed and it appears to made of very high quality metal.The only tool element that is disappointing is the UTP stripper.Mine does not look like the one in the flash and it will not strip UTP without mangling the wire.

CLC Custom LeatherCraft 5-Pocket Cell Phone/Tool Holder - 1105 Review

CLC Custom LeatherCraft 5-Pocket Cell Phone/Tool Holder - 1105
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Good product. Its made well. It has a large compartment for a cell phone and a smaller one for your leatherman. Two pen holders and the flashlight holder on the side.

One thing I liked was it has both a horizental belt clip and a horizental and vertical belt loop on it so you can easly use either method to attach the holder to you. So if you use the belt loop. you can have it sit parallel or vertical with the ground.

As for me, it was a little to bulky. It is roughly 3" wide by 6" tall and 3" deep. I have to do a lot of moblilty things in my job including running with tools on me. And this kept hitting my arm while it sat on my hip, and would bounce around alot.

Unless you do a whole bunch of running around, I wouldn't recomend it. But for every one else who wants something to house everthing neatly in one unit. It would be a good buy

Mtech Extreme Tactical Folding Pocket Knife,With Aluminum Handle Knives Black Review

Mtech Extreme Tactical Folding Pocket Knife,With Aluminum Handle Knives Black
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
With knifes, you have to use and abuse them a little before you can write a fair review based on it's performance. For most knifes of this price you wouldn't expect super high quality as you would with prominent knife makers like Benchmade or CRKT, etc. In this instance, however, this is actually a fairly well made knife. And, I will be quick to point out it is made out of the same high quality steel that most high end knifes are made from (440C). I have had no problems so far with mine in the two months that I have had it and I use it A LOT. Mostly as a utility knife but it would make an excellent all around everyday and campers knife. It has kept a sharp edge so far and the tip has not bent or been damaged even though I have used the tip to pry open things. The design is nice and comfortable to hold. The lock has worked well and consistent. I had to actually loosed the screws on mine with a torx wrench just a little so that the "quick open" finger notch worked more smoothly. With a light flick it whips open quickly now. It is super thin & the pocket clip works nicely. It's not too heavy even though it is a decent sized knife. I would rate this overall as a very useful utility and/or campers/hikers knife and would recommend it!

Gerber 08239 MP800 Legend Multitool Review

Gerber 08239 MP800 Legend Multitool
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
As a building superintendent, I wear a multi-tool every day on my belt, and use it often.I was really looking foward to getting the Gerber because it offered two main features that I wanted - a one-handed opening blade, and tools that all lock open.With all the multi-tools being manufactured today, it's amazing how few offer these two crucial (for me) features in a single tool.The Gerber Legend is the only tool I'm aware of that has both a one handed opening blade and tools that all lock open.If anyone reading this knows of another tool that has both these features, please let me know.
Let me first say that Gerber has made many great innovations with this tool.The rotateable/replaceable inserts for the wire cutters is a great idea, along with the replaceable jigsaw blade and the spring-loaded pliars.Having said that, I'll organize my review into two categories - Major Mistakes and Niggles.
Major Mistakes - The pliars don't open wide enough.The very tips of the needle-nose pliars don't even make it an inch apart---15/16ths to be exact.To get into the teeth of the pliars, you need to be 5/8ths inch or smaller!Compare these numbers with the Leatherman Super Tool's 1 3/4" opening at the tips and a full inch-plus at the teeth.I feel that the small opening of the Gerber pliars will disappoint many people - you simply won't be able to grab a lot of stuff you'd expect to be able to.Personally, if I can't take off a shower-head or fawcet aerator with it, that's much of the usefulness of the pliars gone right there.Major, major mistake on Gerber's part, especially when (seemingly) this could have easily been engineered differently.
Some tools are difficult to open.The phillips screwdriver recesses too far in the tool when you close it fully, making the nail catch impossible to get at.Luckily, the tip of my pinky finger is small enough to get in there and pull it out by the tip.But I know plenty of guys for whom this would be impossible to open.Ditto for the file/large flatblade...it has a thumb-nail catch...but when you close it fully it gets completely recessed behind the other flat-blade screwdrivers!And I mean totally!If your hands are greasy or sweaty (which is a lot on the job) you're not getting it out without taking all the other stuff out first.Major, major mistake on Gerber's part, especially when this is so easily fixed - there's loads of room there for a nice accessable nail catch.
Niggles - The rubber grips are stickers and one came out on the second day of use.Why put them at all?Why not just cast the knurled surface into the handles?The finish of the tool is nowhere near the finish of a leatherman.Casting marks are evident on the handles, the thumb-studs are inserted and then impacted from the other side to hold them in place (which may be a very strong and lasting (time will tell) and cost-effective way to assemble but is ugly and cheap-looking.The jigsaw blade is held in place by a small metal clip that doesn't look like it will withstand much abuse (time will tell with this too).
It's a shame I couldn't give this tool a better review.It's got a lot of stuff going for it...light weight, innovation, and a great locking system that's easy to use. I really wanted to like it but the pliars thing is so major...I'm going to need to replace it eventually just for that 'cause it doesn't pay to carry the thing around if I can't grab stuff with it.Make me one with the fit and finish of a Leatherman and fix the other simple stuff and you've got it.

I have several pocket knives like BUCK, HERBERTZ, GERBER, SMITH&WESSON, VICTORINOX and other German made blades but this Leatherman K503x is the best knife I've ever owned. Not only it being a multi fucntion pocket knife but the kind of blade they used is excellent. It can withstand rugged use without the worry of denting the blade. Although, it's kinda pricy, but forme it's worth every penny I've paid for. I've never expected that Leatherman would be able to come up with someting like this.

Core Multi-Tools Inc.: Nylon Sheath

(More customer reviews)
I own a furniture restoration company and most of my work is on the field doing onsite refinishing and or general repairs.I've owned many Leatherman's as well as the Victorinox multitool.When I purchased the Victorinox I did so because of the way it's designed and because of the wood chisel on it.The funny thing about carrying it is that I rearly use it.I always reached for the Leatherman Super tool instead.Even though the Victorinox is designed better the Leatherman Super tool was my tool of choice.From time to time I leave my tool in a customer's home & of course they almost never admit that they have it so I'm stuck purchasing a new one.The last time I had to replace my Super tool I ran across the Leatherman Core which is a new tool that Leather has just put out.The Core is a supped up Super Tool.When I received this New Leatherman Core I was in love.It is the most handy tool I've ever used.This is a tool that you have to train yourself to use for just about every application you can think of.Otherwise you forget that it can take care of certain problems and you find yourself reaching for something else.I use mine for screwing in screws to cutting open boxes and or envelopes, prying things open, pulling staples for upholstery work, fixing jewelry, etc.My father has 2 because he uses one for fishing.I take mine everywhere including vacation.No man should be without this tool even if you are not a handy individual.This is a great gift to give someone especially if you have their name engraved on it.If anything goes wrong with this tool you have a [..]year warranty with no questions asked.Just go to [..] and navigate to customer service and you will find the address to ship it back to.Don't be surprised if they decide not to fix your Core & just ship you a brand new one.You homeowners out their know how important it is to have good tools laying around.I've also had repairmen come to my home and be impressed with this tool.They've all seen it but they never purchased one.If the repairman is doing a big job for me and he does a really good job, I purchase one for him and give it to him as a tip.Try it & you'll be hooked to.

Kikkerland CD401 Classic Survival Tool Review

Kikkerland CD401 Classic Survival Tool
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I hope nobody is considering this tool for anything other than having an emergency backup to what should already be every day carry tools.It's decent quality, but I certainly wouldn't put it at "top notch" status.And the functions are mostly hard to pull off with any degree of force.The knife is on a short side which makes it difficult to use.The "screwdriver" which is little more than one corner ground to a flat-head shape is only useful in wide-open areas with larger screws, and with the knife on the same edge, one has to be very careful indeed.

The only tools that I found to be decently easy to use are the saw and bottle opener.The saw since it was on the long side and the opposite side (ruler) allows for a decent grip.The Bottle opener is equally easy to operate.

The can opener forces you to use the saw as a finger grip and the wrench slots pretty much require that any bolts are not very tight, and that's if you can get the tool on it in the first place.

This really didn't fit well in my money clip wallet, but it might in a full sized wallet.So, as an emergency backup, it might get you out of a jam and could actually come in handy once in a while.Forget using it as a keychain tool... it's way too dangerous to leave out in the open (and the plastic cover that came with mine was laughably cheap).It won't make it through the TSA unless someone's asleep at the wheel, so traveling with it isn't really an option either.

I'd give it a 2.5 star, but for the money, it's hard to beat, so I'm rounding up.You could always toss one in the glove compartments, toolboxes, bookbag, etc. but I strongly recommend a Small Leatherman Micra or Squirt if compact is what you seek.Those are FAR more functional (AND SAFE!!!) in comparison.Get it if your curiosity or gearlust must be sated.

ok a few things, first this is a full tang knife, and it comes with a fire starter. yes it comes blunter than a butter knife, and yes the rope grip is incredibly uncomfortable. BUT, the hilt has holes with makes re-wrapping the handle with some rope or para-cord very easy, once re-wrapped the handle is comfortable, also the steel is decent quality, so with a little sharpening the knife becomes very usable. bottom line 7$ and 10 minuets of your time and you have yourself a decent knife.

SOG Specialty Knives & Tools S60-N PowerLock Review

SOG Specialty Knives & Tools S60-N PowerLock
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I used to carry a well known name brand multi-tool myself until I found a couple superior options ( based on 30+ years as a fire fighter, police officer and bomb disposal ( EOD ) technician ). I have owned most every multi tool out there and abused them all ( that's why the good ones have a lifetime warranty . ) and the two best for the money are the SOG Powerlock S60 and the Victorinox Swiss Army Knife SwissTool RS- don't waste your money on anything else - " Leather Guy" can't come close to a SOG or Victorinox in performance and Warranty - in my opinion and EXPERIENCE !!!

The #1 multi-tool worth your money is a SOG Powerlock S60. This folding tool isn't new, a fact that speaks to its highly regarded Compound Leverage mechanism that generates twice the pressure and gripping power of lesser tools. To wit: this thing is the Jaws of multitools. Beyond strength, you'll love the pivoting handle covers that really do improve comfort and dexterity. All the essential tools are intricately positioned for deployment, including a quarter-inch drive socket, spring-loaded scissors, half-serrated knife blade, saw, several screwdrivers and Phillips-style model, wire cutters, file... and on and on. And for you showoffs out there, the PowerLock's ability to open with a quick flick of the wrist is undeniably cool. The PowerLock features removable, pivoting handle covers that improve the comfort profile for your hand. More pressure can now be exerted on those tough jobs! Like the rest of the family in the PowerPlier?? series, the PowerLock can be opened and closed with a one-handed flip of the wrist. This is a basic requirement from SOG as so often one is holding wires or standing on a ladder and does not have both hands free. All tool components are easy to access and lock in the open position. The Phillips even locks in two open positions. With one of the simplest and safest locking devices ever engineered, just press the back of the lock and close the component into the handle. Included in the handles of this compact tool box is the first foldable 1/4" drive that will turn sockets or, with a standard adapter, any hex screwdriver tip. It will also turn heads! Scissors can be one of the most used tool components and we have answered that demand with foldable spring-loaded scissors that are extremely sharp. This patent pending marvel only has spring tension in the open position, an additional safety feature. Other components include: plier/gripper, wire cutter, crimper, double toothed wood saw, 1/2 serrated blade, 3-sided file, large screwdriver, Phillips screwdriver, 1/4" drive, awl, can opener/small screwdriver, bottle opener/med. screwdriver, scissors, rulers and lanyard ring. PowerLock also comes with a heavy-duty, dark leather pouch A standard issue with any SOG multipurpose tool is the advantage of hex bolt construction. This essential design element gives you the greatest versatility to clean and change tool components. Features all stainless steel construction and comes with a leather pouch, a Lifetime Guarantee and they are MADE IN THE USA.

The secong multitool in the lineup is a Victorinox SwissTool RS (Rescue and Survival) which comes equipped with both scissors and belt cutter which replace the serrated blade and the metal file and can be life saving in a auto accident. Tools included are: Pliers, Screwdriver (2mm), Screwdriver (3mm), Wire Cutter, Screwdriver (5mm), Bottle Opener, Screwdriver (7.5 mm), Large Blade, Scissors, Seatbelt Cutter, Metal Saw, Wood Saw, Reamer/Punch, Phillips Screwdriver, Chisel/Scraper, Strong Crate Opener, Wire Bender, Wire Stripper, Wire Scraper, Can Opener, Ruler (9 inches), Ruler (230mm), Electrical Crimper, Lanyard Hole . The SwissTool RS has the same features as the original SwissTool with two additional features: seatbelt cutter and scissors - something every first responder needs. Made in Switzerland with a lifetime warranty.

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 S60-N features removable, pivoting handle covers that improve hand comfort and allow for additional pressure on tough jobs.
Heavy-Duty Components Meet Professional Needs
With over a dozen components, from pliers to a wire cutter, and industrial-grade, quality design, the S60-N includes everything a professional contractor or casual do-it-yourselfer needs, including 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 S60-N PowerLock multi-tool can be opened and closed with a one-handed flip of the wrist. Additionally, all tool components 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 S60-N's smooth handle surfaces promote comfort on even the toughest jobs. Additional ergonomic 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.

I own several Leatherman tools. My relationship with them spans nearly 2 decades. The latest addition to the family, the K503X, is a pleasant change from the excellent norm. The K503X actually has the attractive contemporary looks of an ergonomically designed pocket knife...but, with the usual rugged stability and well stored tools that Leatherman has provided for so long now. As an arson investigator, artist/craftman and all around handy man I find that the K503X proves to be an invaluable tool...

Spyderco Tenacious G-10 Handle Folding Plain Edge Knife Review

Spyderco Tenacious G-10 Handle Folding Plain Edge Knife
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I collect knives, and in addition to the Spyderco Tenacious, I have three other "good" folders of about the same size & weight, suitable for every day carry.All are well regarded in their price classes ($40.00, $90.00 and $120.00).

From among these choices, the knife that I am carrying most often these days is the Tenacious. Admittedly, a part of the reason for that is that this knife is newer than the others. But some new knives I have received over the years (Christmas, Birthdays, etc.) found their place in a drawer pretty quickly.Newer or not, I wouldn't carry this knife if I felt that it was notably inferior to the others.

First, the blade: The Tenacious offers a hefty chunk of steel, especially compared to most other knives at this price point. The modified leaf shape, non-serrated design is very close to the optimal drop point style I prefer. Adequate blade thickness together with the flat grind and wide chord design give this blade extra strength. I'd expect this knife to perform well even for rugged duty tasks. I respect - and never deliberately abuse - my knives. But I don't baby them either and so far these expectations (over about 3 months use) seem well founded.

The Tenacious has some niceties and features that are not usually expected at this price point. The G-10 scales and the smoothness of blade deployment, for example. The pivot tension is user adjustable.I also like the fact that the pocket clip can be switched around to suit user preference. Last but not least, the skeletonized steel liners and a hefty liner lock give this knife a solid feel. (Some people don't like liner locks but unless you are a lefty, I don't know why. They are used on some of the most expensive, custom built folders and with good reason - there is no locking design that is inherently stronger).

I can see just two areas where the Spyderco's designers cut costs on this model. The 8Cr13Mov blade steel seems like pretty good quality - probably comparable to AUS 8 (which was considered absolutely top quality not too many years ago). But it isn't D2 or S30V (see the $90.00 and $120.00 folders mentioned above). The other area where Spyderco cut cost is going with Chinese manufacture. Labor is apparently pretty cheap over there. But you wouldn't know it from the Tenacious build quality.

Streamlight 66118 Stylus Pro Black LED Pen Flashlight with Holster Review

Streamlight 66118 Stylus Pro Black LED Pen Flashlight with Holster
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I remain amazed at the progress in portable lighting technology.Recent advancements in LED quality and brightness levels surpasses past iterations and as of May 2008 this seems to be the best light in this size and form factor.The Stylus Pro is an improvement over the thinner but not-as-bright regular Stylus, also a great little light (and reviewed also in the video).The SP not only has a brighter "high flux" LED but its push button switch makes it one hand operable, a big advantage pretty much in all situations.For these features it is only slightly thicker than the regular Stylus but still very lightweight (only a svelte 1.8 oz). The output is also electronically controlled meaning its brightness will be more consistent and even through the life of the batteries.Other features including materials, battery types, and their clips are covered in the video.Both the Stylus and the Stylus Pro are super quality lights that feature lightweight, small size, and good durability.In the world of small lights the Stylus Pro is currently reigning supreme.

The Advantages of LED Light
An LED is ideal for a light that gets used on a daily basis. You don't have to worry about breaking the light, since there is no glass or filament, and you rarely have to replace LEDs because they can last a lifetime. Save time and money on batteries as well--they will last much longer with an LED than with a regular light bulb.

The Stylus Pro features Streamlight's specially engineered reflector and proprietary Micro Optical System (MOS) for optimized output and run time. This penlight offers super-bright, 1/2-watt light and 30,000 hours of operation with its high-flux LED.

Swiss Tech Mtcss Micro Tech 6 In 1 Keyring Tool Review

You have to handle one of these in person to appreciate what a beautiful piece of engineering this multi-tool really is. When closed, the head of the pliers wraps around your key fob as a tag-like object on your keyring. Despite its size,this multi-tool provides large hands with a decent grip - and the tool has a nice weighty feel.

Everyone runs into a situation where they need a screwdriver or a set of pliers - but not everyone can carry a big multi-tool with them all the time. This is the perfect fit for every key fob.
