Got this with the leather case over at the real woot a while back. It’s very very nice. The powerlock feature multiplies your gripping power so the open side design isn’t as much as a problem as if you had to really bear down on the pliers.
I thought I’d use it for PC repair, but using the phillips and minus screwdrivers isn’t as comfortable as real screwdrivers. So I still have to carry some plus/minus pliers.
What I did do is go over to SOG and get the wire stripper attachment and replaced the awl with wirestrippers. Much handier and makes me feel like McGuyver (not McGruber).
I got the s60 version offered here a while back. I am very happy with it, but haven’t used it too much either. The blade is very sharp and I like the needle nose pliers. The gerber I have is a blunt nose version and is less handy.
If you’re a guy and think carrying around a nail clipper is for sissies, carry this even though it doesn’t mention anything about a nail clipper. REAL MEN USE KNIVES TO CUT THEIR NAILS!
Another thing, the specification of the “Serrated Blade” is listed as only “1/2 Serrated Blade”. Does it mean you only get half a blade? half an inch? half a foot? HALF A YARD?! HALF A FREAKING MILE?!?! HALF A- HEAD ASPLODE
