However, if there is a way of using the "buckle" as a regular belt sheath, that gets round the issue altogether.It has a clip, you can simply clip it onto your sheath (see last and about 5th to last pictures).Oh, I thought that was something to do with the belt clasp. If it's just a regular clip, then how does the belt work? BTW - the thumbnails aren't opening up for me, so that last pic is really unclear on my phoneI would presume you have to take the clip off.From the textThe Syncs (Notice the plural here, there is MORE) are multi-tools designed to easily be worn with the detachable base as a belt buckle or simply clipped on a pack strap or boot.And further down:Sync II fits belts up to 1 3/4", thinner belts up to 1 3/8" are best used with the SYNC I. The thinner belt, implies a smaller base implies a smaller tool... the Sync II has a little brother

Ah, so this is one of the buckles for the leather belts not the webbing belts. That makes a little more sense now.So.... lose the screw and just use the clip in areas where concealed blades are forbidden .... OK
While I think the comparison to Sebertech M4 and the like is correct, if you look at the Sync II in pliers mode you will notice that the pliers to handle ratio is much different (shorter pliers head, longer handles). Measured from Kampfs Picture I get a ratio of 1:2.3 for that one, for the Sync II get a ratio of 1:4.1 (both cases pliers:handle length).Now these measurements are not really precise but a good indication that the Sync will deliver more force to the pliers, making any task with them much easier.
They are great little pliers aren't they

That's pretty cool, especially as a backup tool I'd say, without taking up more pocket space. However, I can't said I'd unbuckle my belt to get it.....

I'm STOKED!!
How the heck did I miss this SOG this looks to be a very neat tool and cool way to carry it. I don't think Cali allows belt buckle knives however if theres a way to make it bladeless that would be great.I can't wait to see this tool.

The bit that attaches to your belt is a sheath, and it is very obviously a set of pliers.With California being the big market ot is, I'm certain SOG did their homework on it.Def
