SOG Everyday Daily Solution EDC CRYO D2 Steel Compact Pocket Size Flash MT Multi-Tool, 7 Tools, Stainless-Steel Housing, Urban Gray & Cyan

I like almost everything about this tool. Love the assisted opening for the knife. Love how smoothly the tool opens to be able to use the pliers. The bit holder is innovative, but it's honestly my least favorite part. It just doesn't work well. I would have preferred a fold out Phillips screwdriver in place of the bit storage. Wouldn't have minded a partially serrated knife blade either. Overall, this is a GREAT multi-tool!

Loved this multi tool, bought multiple timesFeels great in the hand, not too bigOpening the jaws and screwdriver is very easyThe knife action is very smooth and exactly what i was looking for, I was very happy with the knife

I bought this knife for a friend but had some time with it first.REASON FOR BUYINGI feel multi-tools have a problem where the more they do, the less you'll actually carry it, and feel this multitool is a fair fix for that problem.SIMILAR PRODUCTS I'VE WORKED WITHIn comparison I also own a Leatherman exo-skeleton multi-tool which is similar product. The exoskeleton is similar in size, also has fewer rarely or never used functions (compared to other Leatherman products), is compact and lighter in weight, has a bit system, and an outward facing locking blade.OVERALLI prefer the down to basics design of the SOG: better plyers, an OK outward facing knife, better bit system, bottle opener.DETAILS OF SOG REVIEW95% of the time I pull a knife out its to use the knife, not any other tool, and I feel this is the SOG's only weakness. I personally would have preferred the assisted knife to be less stiff, and honestly not assisted at all. To be fair I only had a short time with the knife, but I would much rather have a dependable manual opening knife (1 handed) than a so-so assisted knife that I can't trust will open and could cut me trying to get past its detent.The players are surprisingly strong, and a pretty cool feature. The tips are superior to the Leatherman Exoskeleton I own as actually having a good tip, along with the solid grip the compounding mechanism provides.The bit driver. This was actually the key to why I bought it for my friend. I saw a review that showed that other 4mm bits would fit in the driver and bought a $20 combat set to compliment this knife. There's a small plastic space for a single bit to be carried, and I liked how well the driver holds the bit, and that it's centered. This expands the tools usefulness to me by a considerable amount, but also means I have to invest another 20 bucks to get its full effect. In comparison the exoskeleton has a single bit that's more rectangular and it's driver is located on 1 arm of the plyer handles rather than centered. Maybe Leatherman sells different bits, but I dislike being forced into buying their add ons when 4mm is so universal.I gave the knife 4 stars, but would give 5 if the knife weren't so stiff out of the box.I'd also recommend it (or atleast explain what I feel it's strengths and weaknesses are) to others.

Husband bought this to use as his everyday tool. He loves it!

I bought this with the idea that it would be a neat upgrade to my Skeletool. Unfortunately, this one will be going into the shop drawer while the ST continues to ride along.In order of annoyance:- The bit holder is truly awful, a piece of chintzy plastic that feels like it'll fall apart in a month. The bit is so small and so far embedded into it that it effectively requires bending the holder to get out, making using the tool a fiddly 2-handed exercise.- The blade is laughably short, not much longer than that in my powerpint, though wider and more substantial. The stud for opening it is set so far back that one handed opening is downright dangerous- but 2-handed opening isn't great either on an assisted opening blade. This thing is going to drink of my thumb before long.Overall, this is a mt designed around a slick pair of pliers with everything else an afterthought. Scaled up 50% with a more sensible bit holder and a real blade, I could see this being a good offering, but as is this ain't it.

I recently had the opportunity to buy and test out the SOG Flash MT, it is a sleek and futuristic multitool and I must say, it's quite an impressive piece of equipment. While it may not boast an extensive array of tools like some other multitools on the market, the limited selection of 7 tools is incredibly functional and useful.One standout feature of the knife is the assisted open clip point blade. The knife is not only sharp and durable, but the assisted open mechanism adds a touch of convenience and ease when accessing it. What's particularly noteworthy is that the knife doesn't accidentally open when the pliers are in use, a flaw that has been mentioned by other users in different models. This ensures safety during handling and prevents any unwanted accidents.Another aspect that caught my attention is the overall design and weight of the multitool. Its sleek and futuristic appearance sets it apart from the crowd, making it visually appealing and modern. Additionally, its lightweight nature adds to its practicality, as it can easily be carried in a pocket or backpack without weighing you down.Furthermore, the operation of this multitool is exceptionally smooth and user-friendly. The pliers can be accessed and folded out effortlessly, making it a breeze to switch between functionalities when needed.Despite having a limited number of tools, this multitool excels in functionality and performance. Each tool serves its purpose well, and the quality of the materials used is commendable. While it may not have every tool you might need in every situation, the selected tools are versatile enough to handle most common tasks.In conclusion, the sleek and futuristic design, along with the functional and useful tools, make this multitool a worthwhile investment. If you're in the market for a multitool that combines style with functionality, this multitool is definitely worth considering
