To coin a phrase "not the sharpest tool in the box" is he.

Expert Village or Village idiot?

(sorry to be mean....I couldn't resist that one)

for the can opener he says:

"When your on the job,and you need to eat, thats how you eat!"

I like how y'all commented on the video!

It would actually be pretty bad even if he hadn't misidentified the tool. He just degenerates into a string of babbling by the end...

To be fair there was one useful bit of advice about only carrying it on your belt when you're not using it.

Thanks to Gerber's no-name steel...

I'm one! There are some really interesting Gerber tools out there, you should definitely get a MP600 or something if you're curious.

If tool companies were judged on one model, Leatherman would have gone under after the Flair, Vict would have been sunk with the AutoTool or SportRatchet... every company has a tool they aren't proud of. Gerber just made several versions of it because Wal Mart buys them by the ton.
