For a long time satisfied owner of an impeccable in all respects and without restriction recommendable Multitul from USA, I have now recently gained a Victorinox SwissTool plus. As an extra I have done me the ratchet including extension and a set Metabo bits for populating the SwissTool bit holder. Now it require my duties as geocachers keep those present at outdoor installations a whole bunch of tools in order to be prepared for all eventualities, which are known only locally and an ad hoc solution needs. The trunk of the car was thus always fully loaded. To make a long story short: it will remain so in future. BUT: even more than the already really good tool is the USA Victorinox more than just a back-up in case of emergency. There is a full-fledged tool within its means - is an absolutely professional and reliable partner - and this frame is very very wide. The placement is well thought out and complete the processing of outstanding, the game of the parts equal to zero and, as well as handling benefit move at the highest level. Since nothing wobbles by too much play, as everything snaps a tired, everyone keeps demanded by man load stood and delighted by absolute functionality. An excellent supplement are the wrench and the ratchet. Actually, only one of the parts would be enough, because both meet screwdriving just great, especially when almost no working space is available and things get tight. The blades are sharp pleasing, the pliers grabs so fail to like a pair of tweezers, the Scherchen emerges as scissors and wire cutters cracking steel wire as easily as if it were dry spaghetti. In short, the tool has a few weeks already have to meet some difficult tasks and has passed this one and all with 1+. Frankly, the trunk full of tools on his way to become the back up of Victorinox, rather than vice versa. This of course comes the unbeatable advantage that the Swiss tool compared to the tool box needs only a fraction of space and its cost - compared to the "adult" individual tools - are almost laughably small. It weighs a little heavier on the belt, as a Swiss Army knife. But its benefits outweigh! My USA tool I would not have missed, but this is in its versatility just a tad bit better scores in addition by the great wrench or ratchet. A 100% EDC (Every Day Carry) and pure joy, regardless of whether they pay it or another! In the solid supplied leather case still fit next to the tool and the bit holder with flanged wrench the way the ratchet and the ratchet extension well into with, as in my case, even a small fire steel RAT / ESEE.
