Gear Armbar Drive 8-in-1 Pocket Knife EDC Multitool with Screwdriver, 2.5" Blade, Urban Blue

Gerber quality is up there with leatherman

Gets a bad rap from smoothbrains who don't know how to attach a pocket clip. There's a cheap one on Amazon and with some a simple peened pin holds well. It isn't advertised but it fits a bonus double sided driver bit from wiha, and a tooth pick or victorianox pen under the scissors. Spring tension is low but it doesn't matter. It's small, light, and every tool is good quality. None of this junk you get on other small tools.

I carried this around for a while, always offering it, "hey, that cheese looks non-partitioned", "kids, get back!", "Wait while I rinse this multi tool off here". It never came in handy, but it was a pretty lightweight knife that caused no trouble and was available. Could be sharper. I don't think I will use this as my EDC. I don't have an EDC. Just stuff I forget to take out of my pockets and gets me into trouble at airports. BUT ANYWAY: DECENT!

I enjoy EDC (everyday carry) type products, I'm always looking for the next knife, wallet, pen, or backpack, when I got sent the ad for this product I was pretty excited about it. I mean the thing has a legitimate screw driver instead of an almost useful tool that you end up using in a pinch. So after breaking an older knife I pulled the trigger. This is a good knife. It probably compares most to a swiss army knife or the Leatherman Free T4 (which I own as well). I always carry my knife in my back pocked and the T4 is a little bit thick and is pain in the ass to carry. Ill just do a quick break down. Good - Bottle opener is on the "outside" of the knife so its quick and easy to access without having to "open" anything. - Hammer/pry is a very useful tool that i am glad to have. These are all part of the bottle opener, but its much more robust than your standard bottle opener. - knife is good sized, larger than the T4. - Screw driver is awesome. the socket is magnetized so it hold on to screws. The socket can also hold standard screw driver bit heads. So that's useful. Although if you are going to carry around a bunch of bits you might as well carry a screw driver. But never the less, it came in handy when I was already using one screw driver and needed a second one and used this with a different style bit. Bad - IT DOESNT HAVE A BELT CLIP. I read some reviews after I ordered the knife so I wasn't shocked when it arrived. I also found a dude on Etsy who makes a 3d printed clip for this knife, so after it arrived i ordered that as well. But what kind of pocket knife doesn't have a clip? If it had a clip it would be a 5 despite the problem below. - The only tool that locks is the knife. This doesn't affect the scissors or the awl (which I haven't used so maybe it will be a problem in the future, but I might never use the awl), but it does affect the screw driver. It has nice to be able to operate the tool at different angles but the tool wont stay fixed anywhere. So its kind of a problem. Okay that's it. Make your own decision on whether or not you want to buy this thing.

Use it all the time. It's now my go to EDC. It's small size belies it's usefulness.
