I betcha you could really beat up a ninja with a weapon like that! Sorry, seeing that pic really conjured up images of those guys that always take your SAK, fold out the large and small blades and sometimes the awl, "load" thier fist with it and tell you what a handy weapon it would make!Def
I was playing with my new BO PowerLock and I found it interesting that the phillips driver can lock at 90' which is different from my regular PowerLock...
Okay, here's another question: WHY did they add that notch?I've been testing it on a few different SOG's, and at 90 degrees, the Phillips screwdriver becomes pretty clumsy to use. I thought maybe the idea was to improve torque, but there is no good way to push down hard enough on the screwdriver to make use of that torque. The tip simply pops up out of the screw long before you can take advantage of the extra leverage.
Unfortunately, as Def pointed out, the handle cover needs to be removed in order to use this feature.

I would imagine that a wire brush would make short work of the black oxide, but since it's basically a controlled rust coating I'd be concerned about corrosion afterwards.Def
