MOSSY OAK 27-in-1 CNC-Machined Multitool Pliers, Self-Locking

The dark green paint job on the multitool is better then it looks in the pictures but I would rather have it unpainited. It looks ok as is but over time the paint will scratch as it does with all multitools. The knife and saw blade did not lock in easily at first. I had to pull on the blade with a little pressure to get the lock to engage. However, the blade in the locked position is solid. It does not wiggle up/down or left/right. This is unique, even my leatherman multitools have a bit of wiggle to them in the locked position. I prefer this tighter design. I did notice that after a while the blade has started to lock in easier but still a solid lock. I really like that. The knife is a straight knife. Good for wood work but having an angle or curve in the blade would have provided better cutting ability on a flat surface, like a cutting block. The blade is about the same length and width as the Leatherman Wave knife. However the Mossy Oak is a little thicker, maybe a half mm thicker. The blade unlock press is a larger surface than the Wave. So it is easier to close over the Leatherman Wave. The saw has a little bit more aggressive blade over the Wave. That makes it cut faster but a little more work to cut. Good for softer wood like pine and perhaps not as good for harder wood. The Plier handles open smoothly and have a distinct lock when open. This feels good. The Wave does not have that distinct lock and it requires more effort to open. The Mossy Oak wins in the plier open test. Once open the pliers move smoothly with little play. The Wave have no play but it is very stiff. I prefer the Mossy Oak a little better. Quality of the pliers when in clamp down is hard to say. It appears strong and good but only time will tell. One thing I feel is that the pliers on any multitool are for light tasks. The Mossy Oak bites into your hand when clamping down on the pliers in one direction, due to the thin side that attaches the belt clip. However, if I turn the handle around then it feels much better to clamp down because that side has a rounded/flat edge vs the other handle with the thin metal edge. The Wave has rounded handles on both sides so it is a better grip in either direction. These multitool pliers in general are not designed well enough for heavy work like removing rusty bolts on a car exhaust. There is no comparison between an automotive high quality plier vs any multitool I owned or have seen. The multitool design itself is very weak in the way the plier head attaches to the handle. So it could break under high stress but I believe it would hold up for lighter duty tasks. The other pull out tools like the can opener, screen driver, awl, etc all look ok. They all come out at once when I try to pull one out. It is not as stiff as my Wave, which is a plus. However, the joint screws can always be loosened or tightened on any tool. I do adjust that on some of my multitools. The quality of the pull out tools is ok. I think the Wave is a little better but again for light use it should be ok. They do lock in solid and has a great release button, just like the Wave. The bottle opener is at the end of the handle, ready to go. Much faster to use then any pull out bottle opener like on the Wave. The Mossy wins that battle too. The integrated clip is ok, I don't carry tools that way but a good option to have. And you can attach a cord to that end too. There is a driver hex slot in the handle too. Unfortunately it is not the standard 1/4" hex bit. It is the smaller bit. But again, these tools are not for heavy use so the smaller hex bit is probably the way to go for lightness and more effective design. The bit hold is on two sided, so one side with the handle and the other side on the end of the handle. The end of the handle gives a typical screwdriver feel and is the better way to use it. The belt clip has a strong fit but ok. I have not tried to bend it too hard but it is replaceable and perhaps fixable if it gets bent because you can remove it to bend it back into the correct shape if needed. The Wave on the other hand does not have a belt clip. The carry pouch is ok but I prefer to carry with a belt clip. Velcro closure and a snap for the attachment belt strap. The Mossy Oak multitool weighs 8.3 oz. While the Leatherman Wave weigh's 8.4 oz. Very close in weight and size. The advantage of the Mossy Oak is the belt clip. The Wave has no clip so need to carry it in the pocket which makes retrieval a bit harder. The whistle is good. I have a few other multitools with whistles, like the Leatherman Signal. It is about the same quality on all the tools. This whistle has a good tight latch to hold it. The whistle is loud enough but certainly not in the range of a professional dog whistle. All these multitool whistles are about the same. At the end of the whistle is a ferro rod. It's small but usable. But too small to be an everyday fire starter. As a emergency start I say it is ok, it is coated too. That will help keep it ready for when you need it. I did not try to use it because then the coating comes off and it may not work as well when I really need it. It is always good to have a separate heavy duty ferro rod for everyday use. Those wear out too but last longer. But they are too heavy carry around in case you need it. This one does that job better. Overall this is a good tool, I compare it to the Wave. Wave looks nicer with its unpainted handle. But the pliers on the Mossy beat it out.

I have been using the same multi tool for around 15 years. I moved and cannot find it anymore, so I went looking for my new (hopefully) 15 year replacement. I came across this gem right here after some online comparisons. I do a lot of fishing, and this does everything and more that I wanted. Build quality is solid. Knife was much sharper than I expected. Sliced through 30lb braided line like butter (and some of my finger by accident lol). 0 complaints after a few fishing trips so far!

Just received this multi tool and did a few quick test runs. The knife and saw are pretty good for general use as well as the other tools but please note that the feral rod isn’t great. I wouldn’t recommend or trust it. Oddly the whistle does work just fine but could be made out of a better material. Overall a decent set of tools if you ignore the rod and whistle for being cheap. Photos included.

Good Price, the carrying case is great, thank you for including a molle pouch instead of a belt loop type. Nobody uses those lol. Molle one is dank.

One of the best multitools I've ever had. It's not Leatherman price but it is up there in quality and easily usable. The bottle Opener is kinda useless but everything is perfect from what I had to use.

I bought this as a gift for my co worker. He uses it almost every day and loves it. He is a park ranger and it comes in handy while working in the park and it is always ready because he uses the belt case. It’s even Ranger green

Pro - A great value for a very practical tool. Con (and the reason for the 4 star review) - The 4/5MM "wrench" cuts in the side of the hammer end are oddly worthless. This could have easily been made to accommodate standard 1/4" / 6.35mm bits and appears to have originally been designed to do so but then resized internally down for some reason, now the small opening is too small for the bits included and the larger opening too small for a 1/4 bit. The bit driver opening on end of the hammer face does handle the provide bits well.

Was between this and the Leatherman Signal. Have carried a leatherman for 15 years. Lost my skeletool last year and have been waiting to upgrade to the Signal, as its $150. I can buy 5+ of these for that price, however I dont forsee that happening as the workmanship is fantastic. Can't speak for anyone but myself, but these have taken quite the torque and held on strong. No matter how hard I squeeze (within reason), there's no give. Only thing that would make them better is fold-out scissors.

Very well made can use 1 handed it’s sturdy has a bit of weight in it and everything locks so it’s safe to use .its made of stainless steel and has everything you could need for an emergency while camping or in the car maybe

各ツールのロック機構が見事にできていて、驚き感嘆しました。使いたいツールの取り出し方もスマート。例えば缶切りリーマー、ヤスリ、マイナスドライバーが4つ並んでますが、ヤスリだけを引き出すのも容易い。質実剛健な出来でした。

Dobra alternatywa dla chcących mieć Signala ale nie dysponujących aż tak wielkim budżetem .
