I had one of these and hated it. Weighed down my keys, "tape cutter" on it sucked (and I tested it on a ton of boxes!), blade was in an awkward spot, and the bike spoke wrench did not fit the spokes on my bike!
I have 2 of these as well. They are fairly useless. The "screwdrivers" on both of mine are not ground beyond the initial stamping, this makes them lumpy and unable to fit anything. The abrasive rubs on evreything. The wrenches are in odd places or sizes. The pry tool is the only part that function properly, but a widgy is smaller lighter and better for that.In the end it has tons of functions that dont function at all.
I used the cutter last night to cut the strap off a box and it actually worked quite nicely. All you have to do is clip the carabiner on the strap, flip the Quattro so that the blade is exposed, and give it a quick tug. It could be a bit sharper since it is covered, and it could have a bit more of a V shape on either side to better lead things onto the blade, but it was certainly functional enough for what I needed it for, and, let's face it, at this price point "functional enough" with no bells or whistles is about all you can truly expect.Def
I have one of thoses. I was rather surprised how well made it was and some of the functions worked rather well. It's no PowerLock or a Surge, but it is a nice little back up to keep in the bag. Did yours come with a little sheath.

Any chance of placing it like that?
Pics as promised.

Nothing like diving into the pit of ultra cheap. I paid 3.39 Canadian with free shipping for this one. I sort of like this. I am now carrying this one on my key chain.Grant...I hope you know that I use MT.O for ideas. Did you order those tactical hair-clips yet?
