I played around with one and with the exception of the screwdriver I was unimpressed.

I think the X-tract is a very good tool.   Excellent blade.   Drivers are short but quality.  Pliers are light to medium duty.   The sheath is one of my favorites.

Great buy at 25 bucks.

Blade and drivers are superb.
Pliers OK for light duty.
Can opener OK, if a tad small.

I have 3 now, and I think they're great :)

Not 50 quid great, but definitely $25 great!

I don't suppose that anyone in the UK has a package coming from the States that one of these could be slipped into do they? ;)

Got to agree with Dave again, even though it makes me feel quite dirty to do so!  :P

I wasn't terribly impressed with the X-Tract, but then I paid about $40 for it, and I don't feel at $40 it represents a good value.  However, the more common pricing seems to be in the $25-30 range, which I think it's well suited.  Still, in that range, I prefer the Zilla as I find the X-Tract's pliers are flimsy and cheap feeling. 

Still, it's no secret that I don't care for the X-Tract, but if I didn't already have one I'd still pick it up for $25.  And, this would be a boring forum if everyone liked what I like and disliked what I dislike!
