Crucial Multi-Tool - Gray

WOW, I have many multi tools, some good name brands, some cheap junk brands. Just got this Crucial. I have Rheumatoid Arthritis and my hands are a wreck. I got this tool since the ergo design looked like I would be able to handle it. Fits my hand GREAT! I can easily open the blades/tools/pliers, and the caribiner is perfect to hold the item on my power wheel chair. Thank you Gerber for a great quality tool!

I have yet to come across a situation where my multitool failed at what I wanted to do with it. On one (and only one to date since recieving it for christmas several years ago) occasion the liner lock buckled while using the blade but I was able to avoid cutting myself.

My only question would be that on my multitool I do not have the caribeaner.. I have what looks like a strap cutter with a diamond shape cut into the base.. Any clue on what this would be??

overall great balance of utility and capability. Carry it everyday, over every other tool I own, but pocket clip broke after a couple of years.

I myself bought this tool because of the lightness of it and the big blade. I intinally did not have high hopes for the pliers, and the handles seemed to be kinda akward to grip. But so far I have carried it around almost all of the time because it is so light, and the tools work great. The blade is nice, and easy to sharpen, and holds it's sharpness pretty well. The screwdrivers don't comne out a lot from the handle, but this has not yet caused me any problems. And the pliers are actually really tough, they have not broken on me at all, altough I have been using them with a lot of force, and to open up some really jammed bolts. And the handles do not really feel that akward after getting used to using them, even if you squeeze them quite hard. For the price, an excelent lightweight multitool

very sloppy when closed up and knife wont hold a good edge

The spring tab that locks the knife open broke off after about 2 weeks, and it's a little too fat for my pocket.
I like that the tools can be accessed without opening the pliers.

This is my EDC multitool that lives in my workbag. I rather appreciate the good set of needlenose pliers it comes with which has withstood some respectably heavy use. Decent blade on it too and everything being liner-locked gives confidence.

Not so good is the pocket clip; which was only required to live on the edge of my work bag broke off after several months of living there.

Dale thanks for your great review, but I actually want a knife with a bottle opener, Corona and Craft Beer still have old school tops... and I have been caught w/o an opener multiple times.!!

Nice size; pliers folds out nice--well engineered---the tips come together good. Handles confortable. Knife blade is a good tool blade--nice shape, easy to get out. Caribeaner in fine, but I think it is made backwards! --but can be used. Suppose to b e used as bottle opener, but bottle openers are probably obsolete now, most bottles have twist off caps. Nice design in apppearance multitool.

Bought for a tackle box multi tool and it works great! It has everything I needed without a bunch of useless extras. The tools fold out easy and don't budge when locked in place. Has the quality gerber construction and engineering I have come to love.
