Bought one for less than $13. This will permanently stay in my motorcycle's top box.
Walked into knife shop and they were sitting next to the 200 dollar multitools and 300 dollar spyderco and benchmades. I was surrounded by a bunch people talking to the sales person about edc this edc that, but no one asked to see this tool. I thought it was a no brainer and bought it for FIFTY BUCKS!! Such a phenonemal little multitool.
*WHAT*A*GREAT*COMBO!!! Just trying to decide if I can trust Aliexpress or wait until it hits Amazon for $50. But mark my words, many of us have looked for the lightweight pliers/wrench/hexdriver/blade combo. This kind of design creativity will be very disruptive to sleeping giants who are way too content with past success.
Ummm, holy shit this actually looks awesome
I agree! Now if they can only make a version of the mini sailor with a larger frame and this plier head.
Max, just to let you know Leatherman P2 and P4 hasn't been discontinued according to Leatherman directly. They are now focusing on the Arc and selling these largely on Amazon. No longer will these have the 40 year warranty if you are part of the Leatherman Rewards program.
@@hvacbudget8600I'd be sold for something like that lol.
It is one of the cooler multi tools that you have reviewed recently. Good toolset and small and decent ergonomics at first glance.
@maxlvledc @hvacbudget8600 Just ordered mine. This new W2 combined with Roxon KS2 Elite covers a TON of ground with very little overlap. For $75 or so, better than a Ranger (no wrench, no pliers, no bit kit) or a Rebar (no scissors, no wrench, bit kit extra) in that price range.
Great combination. They have that larger one (usually in black finish) that combines pliers and wrench but this is a sweet EDC size.
Many wrench pliers combos have been not very good in the past I'm really interested with this one.
I wish they do a better tool but the design is on the right side of things.
The tool set is one of the bests here.
A competent wrench, nice pliers, bit driver, file and knife.
A great work multitool.
I agree!
Agree here. I tested the other ones. It can't grip on anything to save it's life. Sorta like me.
@@hvacbudget8600 This is is the main reason I'm advocating for pro oriented multitools.
This doesn't mean the others have to cease to exist however the thing is most people in the HVAC or any job would like to get a smaller toolbox. And so far multitools are the solution for this.
And there is gaps to be filled.
These gaps are in my opinion, safe work with electricity, plumbing, proper wood working, etc ...
If major brands thinks about the pros and hobbyists rather than just survival, camping and the military that should be the best.
Because actually the market is quite saturated with those however the pro stuff isn't. Also the one which is quite there is the gardening but it's not saturated like the camping stuff...
I’ve been searching for the perfect multitool for me for a few years. This is cool, but not quite there for my purposes. I like a good pair of scissors. So far my best EDC multitool is the Roxon KS2E. Companies need to start making multitools that are actually well designed and usable.
Christmas came early for Mr. Kincaid. God bless you sir.
Thanks!!
Man, I got the W1 and cannot wait for the W2. This thing is so thin it disappears in the 5th pocket. It would pair great with a Vic Ranger or Roxon KS2 Elite for EDC. Put the bits, adapters and ratchets in an Altoids tin or chums wallet. BTW, the W1 flat head fits the Leatherman bit adapter.
I really love this channel
Cheers from Portland
Thanks for watching!!
I would have done strippers instead of pliers and a dedicated full size 1/4 inch driver. This would make it perfect for working on condensers and electrical wiring.
Great idea!
Thank you another great find and review. They are doing some interesting things!
Thanks for watching!
If the knife is changed to scissors, it would be a great airplane tool
It would!
In that cvase, I'd combine it with a Roxon KS2E. Best scissors ever in such a small form factor
Looks very cool! Thank you for sharing! 😎👍🏻
Great review as always!
Thanks!
Do you think the scissors from one of the other smaller nextools, could be swapped with the knife or file?
Not sure about that. Might work.
A great tool for the glove box
Indeed!
They should have just had a regular 1/4" driver vs. that loose adapter thing.
Do you think there's a thin enough 1/4" bit driver somewhere that could replace that locking phillips potentially? The wave+ bit driver is pretty thin but not sure how deep
The only nice thing about it is the adjustable wrench. Everything else is sub par.
Mine arrived today. Your experience may vary but my adapter sits really ok on it. Not that loose as i thought it would be it's better than in the video.
This version is "diagrams on a drawing board". We both (you & us) and maxlvledc can see what will be in the On-Line catalogue very soon. Whenever Nextool upgrade their metalurgy, all hell will break loose. This will make the big boys very nervous. Cheers from Australia.
True!
how is that adjustable wrench though on it? Because it wasn't good on the other variants. I returned a few of those because the wrench wasn't up to par.
I will test this out for a month or two and do a follow-up video.
@@hvacbudget8600 Excellente! If that thing is good then it's worth it for sure. If not, then it's like a tool where one section of it isn't as good :P
looks like a good tool
What I don't like is how the top most bit "peeks" out of the holster, it looks like it could fall out of the side of the closed holster.
That price though...should have been sub $30
True.
Why don't they just make the new sailor medium with beefier pliers from this tool. I don't really need a wrench.
That would be great!
Got one. Perfect companion for one of the smaller Victorinox for extremely light EDC. HOWEVER. The pliers were hard as hell at first, I needed to FORCE them open with another tool and close them many times before it became "acceptable" and I could open it without a 3rd party tool. This is not OK. There should be some locking mecanism to allow for easy opening of the pliers. I understand it's no Leatherman, but still... don't expect any functionality out if it until you "season" it
Wow. Some must have gotten machined to tight. Mine didn't have that issue but you're not the only one that has mentioned that issue. You might want to reach out to Nextool about that.
@@hvacbudget8600 posting the thing back to China would probably cost me more hten purchasing another one.... but it felt weird to have to force the tool into compliance. They can probably do a bit more QA. Also, yours seemed to have a spring or some mecanism opening the plier... nothing such here. Even though it's less brutal now, I still need to use both hands to open it
@@hvacbudget8600 I think I found what caused this... I had managed to losen it, but thought "oh well, a little bit of WD40 won't do any bad"... after a few sprays, got a TON of rust leaking out for a while. Redid that a few times, and now it opens smootly like yours and even has this kind of "spring mechanism" I was talking about. Mind you it was brand new, but for some reason, the two parts of the plier, or what holds them together was rusted. I can now even open it with one hand if I want to. WD40 power :)
@meptalon Well, glad it works good now!
I like the look
No replaceable cutter?
Not on this one.
Have you tried out the W2? What are your thoughts?
I like it. I have mostly just used the wrench. The wrench works better on larger bolts than smaller like 5/16ths bolts but it still works. A small 4" wrench still seems to be more precise than this tool but it works. Everything else works OK so far.
Whats your impression of the file? KR
Just an average small file. Not a full frame caliber file.
Are these 1/4" bits or 4mm?
1/4"
WoW 😮
I've seen them and thought it looks pretty cool but it's a little bit too expensive atm
True.
I just want to see a longer mini sailor with pliers about that size. wrench or spanner as we say, has no place on a pocket tool imo
It's cOoL 🔥🤙 Like 🔥👍
It sounds great, the features are good, but THIRTY FOUR DOLLARS U.S. ???
They must be CRAZY !! LoL
The video for this multitool on their yt channel shows them using the file as a flathead tho hahah
Wow!
👍
It doesn't have a bottle opener, it's a tool, not a toy. ;)
Any implement is a bottle opener.
thank god, half of the stuff in my pockets have a bottle opener and I don't even drink
@@lol10801lolI don’t either but I still carry it.
Junk steel tho
