I've always liked schrade knives. good build, the viper series was amazing. but when they came out with the tough tool series, they stepped out of there quality reputation and really soiled a good brand name. this tool is a two hand operation item just to open the pliers. once u open the tool, the pliers are not spring loaded, wich can make repairing a fence, twisting wire, or any job u need done a lot harder then it has to be. so you would think that atleast the knife blade would be good right? wrong... I bent the blade with my thumb and chipped it a quarter of the way down cutting a leather saddle strap. seriously you guys... poorly made

This is a great product! It didn't say in the discription that the main tools on one side have a lock blade feature. That's a huge plus and they might sell even more when people hear about it. It's a bit larger than I realized so it will end up in my vehicle along with my survival shovel.
