BIBURYMultitools, Multi Tool Foldable Pliers with Upgraded Scissors and Screwdriver Set, Stainless Steel Multitools - Pro, Ideal for Camping, Outdoor, Repairing - Gift for Dad Men -Black

I previously had two multitools, one of which was very old and where putting any pressure on the bitholder felt like it would break it, the other was a Christmas present from a well know company but it is uncomfortable to use as a pair of pliers and the built in tools aren't great.I recently saw a multitool where the pliers were sprung, they were really nice to use but were a discontinued product. Many of the Bibury pliers indicate they are sprung but that was not mentioned on this product. The video made me think they were sprung, I asked the question, two people said they weren't, one said they are, I took the gamble and ordered them. The pliers are not sprung :-( , very disappointed.The other negative is regarding the hex bits supplied. The tool has two flathead screwdrivers built in and a further two double ended flathead hex bits are supplied, a total of six flatheads. A double ended Phillips hex bit is supplied but there isn't a Pozidriv bit (which I find is the most common screw I come across). The bits are the sort with a ball bearing in the middle, they probably are available online but I can't quickly find matching bits. There are also two double ended Torx bits, two double ended Allen keys and a bit that I don't even know what to call it! I hope to get around this anomaly with a magnetic hex bit extension.Fortunately I bought them when they were offered with £30 off and I also had a £20 voucher so they only cost me £20. Dilemma - do I return them? So now for the good points.The tool feels very solid, maybe a little heavy for some, but the sort of weight that indicates comfortingquality. The scissors are sprung but it is easy to not open them fully then think they are not sprung, you need to make sure they are locked into place. The (unsprung) pliers are good and the wire cutter just cut through some multi-core cable with ease.The knife is sharp, but the star of the show for me is the blade holder that holds the file. This holds T shank jigsaw bits, such as www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B071S1ZN8M (Bosch jigsaw bits), which enables you to use a huge variety of saw blades. Maybe there are other multitools available with this ability but I didn't see any. This is enormously useful to me so no, I won't be returning it, but I still wish it had sprung pliers!Overall this is a good tool which comes in a nifty case that has side pockets which can hold some jigsaw blades (also a front pocket for the hex bits). A good tool but a slightly different set of hex bits and sprung pliers would make it so much better.

Amazing value. Very well made! Leatherman lookout!

If you want a leatherman, but don’t want to pay £200, then buy this. Sharp, sturdy, lots of tools. Doubt it will last forever with heavy duty use, but happy with it.

great bit off kits well worth the price

Great product that does everything you need. Good value for money. Purchased again for a friend

brilliant quality and very handy

For a multitool costing around a fraction of another well known Brand such as LM this is a great value clone of a Surge with added bit holder, quality for price paid is surprisingly very good , cutting blades good sharpeness straight from box, all tool lock out securely and unlock and push away nicely, file and spade saw blade holder very useful , comes with 3 different spade saw blades one being the file, has 6 double ended screwdriver bits, bit holder is quite firm.Pouch is only ballistic nylon but its sturdy enough, all in all a very good alternative to the more expensive models 😉 your not going to be to upset if you lose this as its not a Kings ransom to replace, these cloned multitools have cone a long way, it's well worth investing in one of these . Highly recommended 👌

Amazing value.Great quality.Would buy again, and would recommend.
