Gerber 1027828 Dime Mini Multi Tool - Green, 13.97 cm*15.24 cm*1.52 cm

Its very good for as cheap it is. However keep in mind there are few things about it.-I had to modify the pliers cutter - as it wont cut anything as the cut is not made on angle its instead 90 degrees flat. I added chamfer with a file on both sides so it works like scissors now and cuts small wires and zipties - before it was not able to do it.-I made tiny file into a spudger so it can be slipped between something and help to open stuff. those files are way to small to be of use anyway.-the tongs are not very strong and they can easily bend, so you can only use them to hold something. but you wont be bending wires with this or taking off nuts or bolts, its to fragile-you need to be very careful when using pliers as when compressing them it will pinch your fingers or skin between moving parts , you need to hold it by the very end of handle , same with folding and unfolding - the spring are quite strong so they can trap a finger or two if not careful-the knife blade is bend outwards , making it useless for a lot of applications, if you want to peel a carrot or sharped a stick for example the blade should be bend inside or left straight..but no its is bend outside not sure what is the purpose? it just slips off .. its also quite dull so you need to sharpen it.Overall its a very nice toll to have and as a bonus it has very useful tweezers ! But its made of low quality steel, so it will bend a lot and its quite a toy rather than a tool.. the good thing is that its easy to sharpen it and modify it using simple tools as steel used is very soft and easy to work with.I keep it with my keys, but keep in mind its heavy as three SD minis so its on its heavy side

Brilliant little tool, and the scissors are a bonus since they are often lacking on smaller multi-tools. Very well made.

This thing is tiny! If you're looking for something discreet to fit in a pocket, this is it. There are smaller and cheaper things out there, sure. This feels sturdy and well made. Can't open any of the tools one handed like i was able to with a previous multi tool i owned, but still very happy with it. Spring loaded scissors and fine pliers are good. Package opener works a treat. Knife blade isn't razor sharp but it's sharp enough for jobs i've used it for. Also NON LOCKING so watch your fingers. Screwdrivers seem to work quite happily. Files are in a bit of an awkward place and proportionate to the size of the tool. I don't tend to use files very often so they aren't a deal breaker for me. Tweezers seem pretty good too. Would happily replace it if lost, if broken, would depend on how i broke it.

Brilliant little multi tool for the price.Plus points ... Sturdy, nice finish, really good springs, sharp blades, the packaging opener is a great idea, great grips, does what it says really.ButMinus points ... The scissors are pretty useless, the blades are loose on the pivot pin and move side to side and create a gap (victorinox are way better) the file is too small to be of use, except maybe as a match striker, so to my mind, they should remove the scissors and file and replace with something like a bradawl/punch and mini cross driver, to match the flat head driver.

Generally this is a good quality and excellent value tool. What is hard to understate is the utility in having something that can fit comfortably on to your keys so it is always on your person. I have a full size Leatherman which was about 10x the price which is a fantastic bit of kit but doesn't get used half as much the gerber dime

I own several key-chain multi-tools:- Leatherman Squirt PS4, Leatherman Micra,- Gerber Dime, Gerber Dime Travel.Also used and gifted Leatherman Style PS to a colleague. Carried a lot of 1$ metal card Chinese multi-tools. Fixed a lot of eyeglasses, springs, small gadgets etc. So it will be quick and dirty comparison between the two:Gerber is better than PS4:1) Features several torx screws, it can be disassembled and serviced2) Bottle opener is considerably better3) Sheepsfoot blade has double grind (PS4 has chisel grind blade)4) Package opener (no such option on PS4)5) Tweezers (completely lacking on PS4)6) Cheaper than PS4Gerber is worse thank PS4:1) Plyer springs are weaker than Leatherman's2) Anodisation rubs off after multiple opening and closing actions on internal edges3) Flat screwdriver is shorter (less reach)4) Nail file is smaller, has only one profile (PS4 has two)5) Less durable than PS4 (do not try prying with screwdriver)Both require a small holster, if you care about keeping the looks. If you feel that small sheepsfoot blade and package opener are useless, go for Gerber Dime Travel. It features a larger nail file with 2 profiles, "zipper hook" and got rid of "anodisation wearing out" issue while opening and closing. Do not keep these tools in hand luggage during flights. Gerber makes millions on such people)Pick the one you like more judging by external aesthetics or using differences listed above - you never lose!

The media could not be loaded. Had this knife for 3 months but first time I used it for relatively light plier use they jammed shut and the scissors didn't cut my nails on first use.. sent these off today for product support but returned with no note in same condition. I paid £30 on here. Wouldn't buy again there are others better for the price and product support not good
