Gerber Gear Armbar Trade 8-in-1 Multi-tool - 2.5" Plain Edge Blade, Pry Bar, Hammer - EDC Gear and Equipment - Burnt Orange

Great tool

Muy útil, tiene buen filo, múltiples usos y herramientas. La recomiendo

Muy buena calidad, buen filo en la navaja, un poco pesada para mi gusto pero en general muy bien

The Armbar Trade is a great everyday carry option for regular tasks. I use it multiple times a day, from open packages, quick fixes, replacing toy batteries etc.I usually carry a pocket knife or a small fixed blade, but I wanted something with a bit more versatility without the bulk of a full-sized multi-tool. My Leatherman and Gerber multitools were just a bit too heavy or stood-out more than I wanted to for daily carry.This one fits seamlessly in the pocket — compact, practical, and ready when you need it. With regular use and a quick shot of WD-40, the straight blade opens much smoother while still maintaining a solid, confident lock. It strikes a perfect balance between function and convenience, making it an excellent lightweight EDC companion.

Excelente diseño y durabilidad, Muy buena calidad de los materiales.

Positives-At the $20 price point this is an awesome tool. At $30 it’s still ok but I wouldn’t pay that for it.-I love the straight locking blade. It’s locks very strongly and it’s a good side for a lot of tasks. The overall side of the tool makes this a much more convenient knife to use than a lot of multitools.-The hex bit holder is the real star of the show, and it includes both a philips and flathead. The holder doesn’t truly lock but does snap into place and retains hex bits well. I never realized how much versatility a universal hex bit holder gives a tool like this. I can carry a small container of assorted heads and have more like 20-30 tools in my pocket. That’s a lot easier than carrying two whole sets of Allen keys.On the not so positive side:-I’m not sure how the head of this is in any way a hammer or a useful pry bar. It feels like it’s made of aluminum. It is a nice bottle opener though.-I don’t know why you’d want a saw on a tool like this, and if you’re going to have a saw why not have a can opener instead of an awl? I’d be happy to ditch the saw so that the tool was thinner, or I’d prefer scissors.-The thickness of the tool means it’s not especially comfortable to carry like a regular pocket knife. I usually drop it all the way into my pocket and only clip it to my jeans if I’m going to be using it a lot. It’s just not that comfortable to wear all the time.-I’d really like a little nub to make the knife one-handed opening.
