INGCO Multitool
(https://i.imgur.com/gjPIHpw.png)
It cannot compare to the known name brands. However, I was surprised to find that most of the tools will do for light tasks. The pliers are spring loaded, and I have used them without trouble. Tools lock-up well. I had to sharpen the small main blade, but the serrations on the other blade were sharp. The drivers are just ok--for screws that go easy. The knives cut, and the file is not bad. All in all, not bad for a desk drawer inside tool. Not for outdoors, or carrying around. A Wingman or Sidekick would do much better. I picked up this Ingco for around 12 dollars equivalent, just for fun. Saw it for 16 Euros online. It comes from a Western firm manufacturing in China, making a big line of budget tools, hand and power. I had bought a few basic Ingco hand tools, which worked out well enough. Cheap and useable.
Maybe good for a kid begging for a multitool, to see if he or she will be responsible, and not lose it.

Thanks for the write-up, IP! :salute:
Looks o.k. for a c&c, but nothing outstanding (example. Ganzo). :ahhh
