 Nice tool July 14, 2008
I have had a couple of multitools over the years. My lasT was a SOG and I loved it. One day it was gone and after much searching turned up empty handed. I began searching for a replacement and did not want another SOG because I still believe that it will turn up. Everyboody has an opinion and this one is mine. The tool is great. With access to the tools with out opening is great. Locking into place not allowing one to do some wicked damage to yourself is great. And,the sharpness of the blades is great (SOG's greatest downfall is the blade that it came with is almost incapable of being truely sharp). A feature that I did not think would have much use was the pry tool. It will surprise you at how often it comes in handy (if the SOG had such a feature I would not have broken the file a long time ago). The lack of a file is the one downfall. If I were to make any changes to the design would be to replace the curved serrated blade with a file system. I have used it now for a short time, but almost daily. Anybody who carries a multitool will tell you that living with one is so much better and more usefull than going without. It has a great warranty and that pushed me over the top when picking the tool. DON'T GO WITH OUT!...
VERY Handy July 2, 2008
I bought this knife to use in emergencies and for light everyday usage. I was looking for an emergency or survival tool that also can be used in every day life. I definitely chose the right one. I went with this over a Swiss Army Knife simply because the awesome pliers and the fact that it isn't viewed as a "weapon" so much as a tool (I carry it at work). This turned out to be a great idea because I use the pliers on almost a daily basis at work. I work in Security so I'm around emergencies a lot more than other professions so this thing comes in handy there as well. During a panic situation, if something needs to be cut or tweaked, it's right there on my belt.
It's also a great every day tool just as I wanted. I often find myself needing pliers, the knife, or reamer for tasks like opening packages or making quick repairs. I use these tools for things as simple as taking stapes out of paper to repairing the stapler itself to removing screws to gain access to an important panel promptly. This tool is great for if you don't want to wait for a maintenance guy to come and help out just because you aren't properly equip. It's also great for maintenance guys themselves.
This particular version, the RS, also comes with a seatbelt cutter which would be invaluable in a car accident situation. Whether you are rescuing someone or you are a victim, being able to break out of the seatbelt (and the car itself) could save your life. The build quality is great. I've had people use all of their might and the thing didn't break or even bend at all.
I haven't had this tool for too long but the fact that it's come up in my life so much already motivated me to write this review... And it should motivate you to buy this multitool if you are on the fence.

Swiss Army RS Swiss Ultimate Tool w/ Nylon Pouch
This all in one tool is great. I was worried as none of the pictures on the internet show the pliers, but yes it does have a nice set of pliers included. The feel is heavy and solid, all tools, except pliers lock into place and can be accessed without having to open up the tool. Great to leave in the car, on the boat, or on your belt. I like that this has a lifetime warranty and am pleased with my purchase.
Best Multi-Tool I've owned yet July 2, 2008
This is multi tool number 4 for me. The first two were Leatherman tools which were useful but never great. The pliers were always a pain to use. The third was a Gerber multi-tool that for the most part was better designed then the Leatherman tools (especially the handle) but the quality of some of the tools was lower. I finally got this tool after the Gerber pliers snapped off. So far this is the best of the bunch. Not as nice to look at as the Gerber but as easy to hold. The quality of each of the tools is high and the locking mechanism is good. This tool is heavier then the competing tools from Gerber or Leatherman, I attribute that to higher quality metal. Worth the money.
