I bought the three USA Multimasters (at one point, there was a nearly identical Chinese version sold under their Mountain Quest label) in my collection (Caterpillar blunt nose, needlenose, and some oddball made for a military contract that's a needlenose with a tanto blade and strap cutter) for about $15. They were all sold as factory seconds, but I saw nothing wrong with them. Kutmaster stuff seems to come up quite regularly as factory seconds, so just keep your eyes out. Most of mine are, and range from no noticeable mistakes to some big stuff (like a rope knife with two holes for the shackle drilled on one side. As for the Klein, you're probably just paying for the name. While it is a bit rough around the edges (keep in mind, it's been unchanged for over three decades), the Multimaster I feel is the original heavy duty tool and one of the best on the market still. Just don't cut hard wire with it--they told me that dinged cutters are not covered by the warranty, and rebar wire does ding the cutters on these--I know firsthand.
