The biggest baddest multitool of them all. New ones are typically $120 USD.

Heh-heh, inside joke cliosguy! We didn't know what it was either when Paladin first came out with the specs. What the heck is a spudger? Turns out it is that little hook-shaped device on the far left handle. According to Paladin:

Spudgers come in handy for all kinds of small work. The wire tip is perfect for setting DIP switches, removing jumpers, scratching corrosion from hard-to-reach contacts, straightening wire after unwrapping, and cleaning fingernails.  The plastic end dresses wiring blocks, places labels, smooths labels, peels labels, pries cases open, snags wires from crowded harnesses, and twists trimmer potentiometers.

I believe what you describe is a "punch down tool" (almost sounds like "ponchadora"), while the guys here refer to the tool right above that in the photo, i.e. the one resembling the awl/hook in the Vic STs.

yeap i guess that would be the better translation, "ponchadora" in like "a thing that punches" for us :tu:
