The Gadget Show

[Gareth]

A very silly (but fun) review of a couple of multi tools and a SAK on a British TV show.  Click on the middle video clip to see the tools go head to head.

I must remember to add a serrated blade to my next outdoor knife

Cool video there pardner.  I think the rules were unnecessary. I think the dude with the SwissChamp would have been better off cutting that screw off with the metal saw. The reason the girl lost was her inexperience using hand tools or MT's.   They probably should have had time trials instead with everyone having the same tool. That would have shown the strengths and weaknesses of each tool as well as the ingenuity of the user. Well, anyway, thanks for sharing that!

I would have liked to have seen how a Swisstool would performed against the other tools instead of the The Champ. I think it would have been a more fair challenge.
Enjoyed the clip Thanks for posting

Is that the same video from this http://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,2727.0.html discussion? (Can't watch videos on dial up )

Maybe it's the british accent, but did the guy call the charge AL titanium handle? Oh yeah, "the serrated blade on gerber can cut through even leather!", my SAK can do that.

Would have the same problem of driver slipping I would imagine, it's just too polished and rounded to have any grip. I had trouble assembling a BBQ with my spirit because the philip slips too much.

I noticed that! The handles are aluminium not titanium!!!!

Are we very sad   

Anyway, that was a scientific test that proved beyond doubt that :

Leatherman > SAK > Gerber


...retreats slowly from thread......

Anyway, that was a scientific test that proved beyond doubt that :

Sex and goofiness sells! and their not titanium (liars)!

I'll take the champ, because I know how to use it!
