Amazon Basics 8-in-1 Stainless Steel Multitool with Safety Lock and Nylon Sheath, Red

I have numerous muti-tools and this one is a GREAT buy. Unlike most inexpensive multi-tools... this one is solid and reliable. It's not a Leatherman but it's not at their ridiculous prices... It's a slightly bulky and heavy, but worth it. I don't feel tricked after buying it... Impressed for the price. Makes a great truck or backpack tool. I recommend.

The 15-in-1 Stainless Steel Multitool Pocket Knife exceeded every expectation. It feels solid and well-constructed right out of the box—nothing flimsy or cheap about it. Each tool opens smoothly and locks into place with confidence, and the stainless steel build gives it a durability you can actually feel in your hand.What really stands out is how useful every component is. From the knife blade to the screwdrivers, pliers, bottle opener, and more, this multitool packs a ton of functionality into a compact size. It’s perfect for camping, quick fixes around the house, or keeping in the car for emergencies. The included sheath is another bonus: sturdy, secure, and easy to attach to a belt or stash in a bag.Overall, this is a fantastic all-around multitool—well-designed, dependable, and a great value for the price. If you’re looking for something practical, durable, and versatile, you can’t go wrong with this one.

Dont get me wrong. for the price this is an amazing backup for my Leatherman Sidekick. For a quarter of the price, you basically get almost everything with a decent quality (albeit the Philips screwdriver is so thin, even for a multi tool, and i'm afraid it wont survive serious work). It will be in my car for backup etc. The saw is also very hard to pull out but i can live with that. you can't open it with one hand.The first tool i got had a flaw, the saw when opening would grind against the screw. so i had to replace it. What was strange was that the replacement i got had a much better sheath! i got a serious sheath, on the same quality of leatherman if not better, the first one was an excuse of a sheath, like a cheap cloth back that with a flimsy belt loop that makes the multi-tool dangle from your belt. I hope Amazon wont use these any more..So overall, still 4 stars, it would be 5 if these issues are fixed. Great job amazon for making something built well for a great cost. Make those little two changes (always have the better sheath) and better testing before sending these out and you created a tool that 99% of people wont differentiate from the expensive leatherman.Also would be good for you guys to put your logo on it, too bad it has no logo, it can serve as a great ad and i wouldn't feel this is some OEM you just packaged. Great job!

Picked this up as a gift for a kid in the family who’s really into camping and outdoor stuff. He loved it right away and immediately clipped it onto his backpack.The tool has a good variety of functions and feels sturdy enough for basic outdoor use. The included sheath is handy and makes it easy to keep it attached to a pack or belt.Nice little multitool for someone who likes hiking or camping. He pretty much carries it everywhere now.

Love these! Have had about a year now and live along the Gulf of Mexico and still no rust or corrosion. These are our go to tool for fishing, boating… Would definitely buy these again, well worth it for the price. The tools all work well and work better than more expensive leatherman tools we have had.

If you compare the listed tool functions there is no difference between the 8-in-1 and the more expensive 10-in-1 Amazon multitool. The dimensions are identical, the styling of the outer handles are slightly different.I looked for this style for two reasons.- The knife and other blade tools are directly accessible like a jack knife, without spreading the pliers handle open.- When used as a pliers the handle surface is relatively smooth and comfortable to grip.This multi-tool is a compromise. I could find no multitool that provided the functionality I thought I needed for what I consider a sane price. I had to add an EDC bit driver to handle the other stuff I do every day. Fortunately both tools can be fit in the same sheath.1. When using it as a pliers the handles latch firmly in position. The remaining blades have a detent action that holds them in position.2. All blades block the use of the pliers when they are open (imo, a safety benefit)3. uses:4. The knife blade positively locks open, using a leaf spring that engages with the back of the pivoting end. 5. The blades pivot so that their working edges are aligned with the outer handle surface.6. It's inexpensive enough that I can afford to lose it.Cons:1. If I didn't wear a web belt, it would be impractical for EDC.2. It's too large to carry in a pocket, too heavy to hang from the caribiner clip which is too small for Molle.3. It lacks a file.4. The assembly quality is mediocre The two handles are different thicknesss and the thicker one is not square.5. After using it as a folding pocket pliers on a project, I used the knife blade for the first time to cut through some packaging straps. A screw at the pliers/knife pivot sheared off halfway down its threaded section, rendering the pliers, knife and saw unusable.This was to be my primary EDC tool. I've never never been less than satisfied with the quality of an Amazon Basic product, which I why I tried this one. But I've NEVER experienced any folding knife failing at the pivot before this one. I don't know whether the failure was from defective screw, poor choice of screw quality, or an assembly error. If that screw hadn't broken, I could have lived with it. But since it failed under light use, I can't trust the product to do its job when I need it. . I'm returning it for credit

I have Leatherman taste, but a different budget. I liked the red color, and didn’t think I could go wrong for its price. This thing is wonderful. It fits great in the hand, and has two handy ways to carry it, other than just sticking it in your pocket. The test of “multi tools” for me is whether you would use one feature, e.g. pliers, rather than reaching for real pliers. These are great. Everything feels solid, easy to pull out, safe (locking knife blade), and just sturdy. I’m definitely buying a second one for the car. Candidly, you just can’t go wrong at this price. You’ll be surprised how solid it feels in your hand. I am wearing it on my belt, a lot more than I thought I would, by the way. I thought I’d be sticking it in my pocket, but it’s just so handy in that (nice) carrier.

I have had several Leatherman and currently own a Wingman (I lost two in the past), which is about 2.5x more expensive. So I will compare them to tell you where you may miss out by paying less.The Amazon is sturdy, and the knife sharp, and tools are useful for its intended purpose. Both the knife and saw can be accessed from the outside and locked. The pliers are spring-loaded and the spring is hidden. Personally I prefer pliers that are not spring-loaded as they don't take up so much space when resting on the table. However the Amazon lacks polish in key areas which can impact your day to day use. First, there are more sharp edges on the Amazon, especially along the edges of the pliers, which are sharp enough to cut. Second many tools are very tight and hard to deploy. May be it will get looser over time, but the Leatherman has just the right amount of resistance from day 1. I have medium size hand. If you have big fingers and short nails, it would be very difficult to get some of the tools out. (Sometimes it seems that I need another tool just to get the tool out of the Amazon)Thus, I left the Amazon in the car as a back up in case of an emergency. For around the house and camping, I prefer the Leatherman because all the tools can be readily deployed without much fuss.

Handig, wel wat aan de zware kant. Voor de rest prima, zoals omschreven.

This is a great multi tool. I already have a leatherman and whilst the quality isn’t exactly the same, this isn’t far off for something that’s a 3rd the price of one of those.The attention to detail is also great. The knife has a lock catch button, so it reduces the chances of it opening by accident. The nylon case is super heavy duty and fits perfectly, and stops the tool snagging the inside of a pocket or bag or wherever you may keep it.The tools are a little difficult to get out and they’re a bit of a nail destroyer, but then all these multi tools are the same.I’ve found this incredible useful - pliers, Philips screwdriver and a small knife have always come in handy for the odd thing, and particularly to be able to have this in a draw and not have to get the whole tool set out.

....., sehr gute Qualität zu günstien Preisen.Ich hab schon öfter mal Amazon Basics-Produkte gekauft und wurde bisher nicht enttäuscht - genau so ist es mit diesem Multitool hier, von denen ich einige habe. Das Angenehmste ist, das Gewicht von dem Teil, da es mit nur 180g, nicht die Hose, bzw. den Gürtel "runterzieht" - ist also gut mitführbar. Das Erste hab ich auch hier bei Amazon, gekauft, weils gut "aussieht" und viele Funktionen hat - allerdings fast ein Pfund schwer - völlig unpraktisch !!!Bei diesem hier, rastet die "Zangenfunktion" sogar ein und diese schliesst auch perfekt. Um zu sehen wie die Qualität einer Zange ist, schliesst man die und hällt sie gegen das Licht - bei einer hochwertigen Zange fällt da kein Licht durch - wie bei zb. dieser hier - kann man fast wie eine Pinzette nutzen. Das "klobigste" Multitool, das ich habe, ist tatsächlich dieses "Lathe...", das theoretisch nur mit einem sehr stabilen Ledergürtel mitzuführen ist und auch mehr als das 16fache kostet - nur gut zum Anschauen - an der Baustelle nicht nutzbar, da u.a. auch zu schwergängig - hab ich irgendwo in einer Schublade "rumfliegen" - viel zu schwer.Trifft bei diesem hier, auf keine Funktion zu - und - es ist mit einem Torxschlüssel, zur "Grundreinigung", komplett zerlegbar - findet man auch sehr selten. Bin sehr zufrieden mit dem Multitool - und will es auf diesem Weg, weiterempfehlen.Bei diesen Basics-Produkten, sind mir diese grünen Akkus am herausragensten aufgefallen - für die Schnurlostelefone gibts nichts besseres - besser als jeder DECT-Akku - und deutlich günstiger - und als zweites diese Inbusschlüssel, mit den zölligen Größen dabei - kauft die mal im Einzelhandel ( falls ihr die überhaupt findet --- schraubt mal an einem amerikanischen oder auch manchen japanischen "Mopeds" rum - da braucht man sowas ). Den Vogel schiesst der Basics-Wasserkocher ab - Oma hat einen, vom "deutschen Markenhersteller" - gegen meinen Basic ist das "Spielzeug" und der Basic ist auch vieeeeeel schneller mit Wasserkochen, auch deutlich stabiler gebaut.Bisher kann ich zu den Basic-Produkten, im Gegensatz zu manchen Rezensionen, absolut nichts negatives Berichten/Schreiben - wenn ich ein Produkt/Ware als Basic bekommen kann, hol ich mir das, alleine schon wegen des Kaufpreises und der Produktqualität - die Garantien sind auch die Gleichen, wie bei den angeblich so hochqualitativen Markenprodukten. Nochmal - bis sehr zufrieden - und - gerne wieder.

Jätte bra och praktiskt verktyg. Väldigt prisvärd.

Zoals alle items die ik kocht van Amazon Basics, zeer tevreden van de kwaliteit. Aangekocht om bij te houden in de motor voor mocht ik het nodig hebben. Voor zover ik het geprobeerd heb voldoet het item volledig aan de beschrijving en is gemakkelijk in gebruik. Voor mij een aanrader. Beschikt bovendien van een draagtasje wat niet beschreven stond.
