It's a big dude, but really light. Awkward and feels on the cheaper side. Although, it fits really comfortable in hand. Here are a few comparison shots.

A huge tool, with mini sized blades. Like a huge car with minimal internal spaces (and "aerodynamic" wings that serve no purpose).
 I don't understand Gerber.

IIRC Bob (J-Sews) dug up the original design on this and it was intended to have pliers in there as well.

Pliers would have made it a lot better for sure !!  I paid 8:00 bucks for it, so It will spend it's life in my wifes glove box. Can't see carry that around.
