I own the Leatherman, two Gerbers and the SOG. There is absolutely no doubt for me that the SOG is made better than the others. I did break the file and will have to have it replaced. The file is not for prying or to be used a screwdriver. I still use all three but the SOG is by far the superior tool.

I love my SOG multitool. I literally have used it every day for almost three years.
I was once using the screwdriver for prying something (i’m a bad boy) and i bent it pretty good… I hammered it back into place and used it for another year and a half till it shattered into like four pieces or so.
I was used to my Powerlock so when someone gave me a Leatherman Blast for Christmas, I broke it in less than a day.

I’m now swapping out a couple parts so i can have the C4 spike, the v-cutter (didn’t come in mine, got scissors instead) and the wire strippers… my Powerlock will be infinitely more useful then :3

Many thanks. This has confirmed my guess that the Powerlock EOD is for me and I’ve ordered one, although I’m not sure it will replace my trusty Victorinox red knife, which opens everything better than standard hand tools, although I expect the pliers will come in handy. I found a 61, which I don’t think has a V cutter like the 62 and 63, but I think I can buy that separately and bolt it on, can’t I? (Just in case I have to cut a seat belt one day–a seat belt saved my life some years ago when I was driving a vehicle that did a somersault off the side of a main road after a tire burst, but I may not be so lucky in being able to undo the seat belt buckle next time.)

SOGs are great. As a multi-tool freak, I have always wanted one, but cannot justify the cost to have ANOTHER multitool sitting in my drawer.

I am currently using the Leatherman Juice as my gear bag tool, and a Schrade ToughTool in my workplace traveling tool kit.

So, Julie… are you sure you don’t need to maybe send the tool (and maybe some other gadgets) around for others to review?:o

I don’t know about SOG, I haven’t heard much good from their multi-tools. But I could be wrong. I’ve had a Leatherman Wave for about three years and I absolutely love it. It has externally folding blades so you can get the things you need out without actually folding open the tool. A great feature in my opinion.
