My worst was a Stanley Automatic Multitool. (Sorry 665ae! I see you have one on order. I would have warned you if I'd known!)
Gerber 600 Scout , the screws in the handles kept coming loose on both handles and the awl broke after trying to put a small hole in a thin bit of plastic , I've never bought another gerber product again .Dunc

There again you could always chuck it in my bin as long as you tell me Dave
I know what you mean about the loctite Dave but what angered me was you shouldnt need to do this on a premium multitool and the awl breaking was the last straw .Dunc
An old Gerber original multitool , screwdrivers were crap , pliers broke under light pressure . Only good part was the awl .Chris
