JA,s OHT challenge.

[JAfromMn]

Note the usable area of the ohts pliers.

it has some of the largest pliers usability wise.

I'm going to try get a pic later.

[Lynn LeFey]

This is a great thread. I hope there's more to come.

Those OHT pliers looks like they're ready to attack and DEVOUR their enemy

[ducttapetech]

They seem close. But the oht seems like they have more jaw and usable space.

Here's a quick pic of the jaws with a aa battery for scale.

One more plier pic of the oht removing a safety plug on a central air unit.

On plier size: I think the OHT head -seems- smaller, because you don't see the pivot. It's hidden by the handles, this contrary to any of the other tools. This makes the head look a lot smaller, even if it's actually as big or bigger.

The gutting blade works great for cutting plastic straps and zip ties

Well I'm home after a long day at work and I got a few thoughts about the oht .

The one hand tool might stay part of my work gear for longer than I thought because of one huge reason.
IT'S A ONE HANDED TOOL.
 A very good thing when working in tight spaces. It was so nice knowing my multitool was on my right side and I could use it without trying to unfold tools when I was working in a crawl space under a home. It was very tight I could not even crawl. I had to slide.

I wish I could have got a pic of the whole I cut into some vinyl siding. The little plane edge blade cuts clean. Its got a good grind and its very pointy. The sheepfoot blade got to put its teeth into some rubber hose we use for ac water drainage. Again a nice clean cut.

I did have to make a trip to my tool box for a file to dull up some metal duct work. Besides that I couldn't have picked a better multitool to get my work done today.

[JAfromMn]

This is a great thread. I hope there's more to come. 

I'm glad you are enjoying it Lynn LeFey.

IT'S A ONE HANDED TOOL if you can't figure it out I am truly sorry LOL

I think the Vic OHT is just a abbreviation, the real name is what the actual product, hence the lack of legal battle

Kind of like we say Vic...

can you please post the pics you got of a oht dissembled

I remember seeing some I'm almost positive you took.

thanks man I hope you still got them it was awhile back.

[sawman]

This thread has changed my initial opinion of the OHT. It's kind of like the 30 day Huntsman thread but better. I hope this continues a long time. I might even buy a OHT thanks to this

I put in a submission for oht as a abbreviation for one hand trekker a Victorinox Swiss army knife.

I'm going to check in a few days and see if they except it. 

I'm a nerd LOL

Not much to take apart. There are some C clips that need to slip off and a couple of screws. They are assembled identically to the Gerber MP400/600 dealios.

I'm not going to take apart one of my oht's.

I thought you had a pic.

[ducttapetech]

Might have to start doing LOHT and VOHT to help keep down the confusion.

I think that is a great idea

[JAfromMn]

used the flat driver to tighten a lose hose clamp.

I can see the short drivers are easier to use in tight spaces.

[JAfromMn]

The oht cuts through cable tv wire like its spaghetti.

I'm really liking the 154 cm cutters.

It sounds to me like you're lovin' this tool JA
