How Come This PPP Has 7 Tools ?
on: September 30, 2015, 05:34:10 AM
When I ordered this multi-tool I thought it had 6 tools but when it arrived it had 7 tools.The seventh tool being the 1/4" driver attachment.

The SOG website displays this multi with 6 tools but the one shipped from West Marine which arrived yesterday has the 7th.

S45-n vs. S44-n? They probably used the wrong photo.

Thanks,this is an S45 but searching the SOG website didn't turn up any model numbered S45.

Could this tool be discontinued ?

The search function at SOG website really sucks.

That discontinued list has the PowerDuo listed! Way to go SOG! 2015 has proven to be a turnaround of sorts for the company. Bring out a new and improved SwitchPlier that seems solid and is well made, and then discontinue a tool with crap quality and flawed design. Here's hoping we start to see some refinements across the SOG multitool spectrum.

Here is to hoping. SOG has had the potential to be a huge competitor in the multitool market, but has fallen short. If they just changed a few things they could really hit it out of the park with their multitool line. Hope the discontinuing of the PowerDuo is the first step in making the change.
