Micky d asked in the Great and Powerful Multitool Picture Thread about how solid the lock up on the Crunches pliers were so i did a little video, he liked it and thought you all deserved to see it :D

So here it is :)

Life is like a sandwich...the older it gets the crustier it becomes!

Great work (as ever) Ryan mate :)

Well I've got to say I really want one now ::). I reckon it's probably the best plier based MT out there for cycle repairs :)

It does feel extremely solid in the hand, it is certainly an extremely well designed/assembled tool :)

I trust mine just as much as a regular pair of Vise Grips of it's size. 

Great design overall.

Pretty much any of them, the only slight difficulty i have is with one handed blades like the Wave. However with a bit of practice it's not much of a problem :)

Great video clip Ryan.
By the way, don't you agree that left handed people are somewhat more witty and intelligent than right handers? :pok: :D

But of course! The left handers of the world could easily overthrow every government using just our charm and intelligence, but we're also not stupid! Why would we want all the hassle and work that goes along with it :D
