Gerber Suspension NXT 15-in-1 Multitool Pliers, EDC Knife, Stainless Steel | Stainless steel, needle nose pliers, wire stripper, survival/camping gear, gifts for men, EDC pocket clip

I own a few Leatherman multi's and Gerbers too. Each has their purpose. I like this one in particular as my EDC for when I need a little of everything but not heavily. When I need someone more like a heavy workhorse, then I grab my Leatherman supertool 300. Many will claim this Gerber Suspension NXT is not solid. It is. It is just not meant for torquing down on the pliers with a death grip like you can with a Leatherman. But it will certainly do its job for daily obstacles in life. The Scissors are awesome. The file is short but more affective than many comparable multitools in this pricepoint. The awl is more wide but still useful and strong. Blister packs are a breeze to open with this EDC. The pliers are great for standard use of assembly or disassembly of hardware. The Philips driver is very handy. The fact that everything locks is a huge plus. The ruler is short but still very useful if you are crafty in making it work for longer measurements. The can't complain about the weight. It's ideal for an EDC but the compromise in weight is why it is not as stout as a high end leatherman. It's nothing to due with quality but all to do with staying in a pricepoint for a more lighter everyday useful multitool. If this set let's you down, then you are a candidate for a heavy duty, more expensive, multitool. Oterhwise, the Suspension NXT is a clear winner in my pocket and respective wallet.

Greetings. This Gerber is superior to all my other multitools for my purposes because of the specific combination of features: * Working Scissors * Working Full-Phillips Driver * Serious Abuse Handling * Spring Load Pliers with good machining * Lightweight but full-size feeling. It is still working perfectly after many years of abuse (countless machine screws, torquing the pliers, etc.). I can't believe it is still essentially new. All my failed Leathermen and Gerbers have found good second homes. Unsolicited advise: Select the tool based on what you know to be the primary use and then reject it the minute it fails to perform that specific function. When you find one that exceeds the intended purpose, all the multi-features become major bonuses. All IMHO.

Little heavier than leatherman but great tool for the price

Really awesome EDC multitool. For the price, it's both well-made, functional, and has sufficient tools to be the primary multi-tool. The biggest difficulty with this is the release latches; it's not very easy engaging them to put your tool away (I use my teeth 😭). It's still a great tool, and just perfect at this price.

I picked these up to make a bunch of 6x12in "handy travel stuff" canvas pouches for myself & friends. I always end up accidentally forgetting about my multitool or pocketknife or scissors when I go through airport security, or I forget to bring or end up losing pens or a scarf or my notebook, or I end up having to use a shoelace for a makeshift clothesline when paracord would have been just the thing, or I space out bringing a lighter or a flashlight -- you know, all that stuff that you bring and lose on the trip, or stuff you forget to bring but would have ended up coming in super-handy at one point or the other, or stuff that inconsistent airport security screening will let pass in one country but clamp down on in another for some unknown reason. If I'm not traveling around on vacation or business, it'd be handy stuff to just have in the car. So it turns out that I wanted some kind of inexpensive but reliable multi-tools to put in these pouches and I spent a day looking through the options. I'd recently had a Gerber multitool confiscated by airport security in Edinburgh, so I figured that I'd check out all the other brands for a replacement, including the AliExpress chinesium ones, but when I went through the list of tools and looked at the quality of steel and construction, I kept coming back to Gerber. The value proposition of this multi-tool is really good. You get enough tools to fit most common requirements, decent steel and a reasonable (pretty cheap, all considered) price. I bought four of them. They don't need to be especially rugged, though they are substantial, and they won't likely get more than a week's use if they do become necessary. It was just the thing for my little pouches and if one should get lost it won't break the bank to replace.

I live with this thing on my hip. A very useful tool for all things. Only fault I have found is when using the pliers with a twisting motion, but even when it broke Getber replaced it five years after the sale. This one I bought for my brother. Great multi tool.

Best multi tool I've owned. Love that it clips in my pocket and I dont need a separate belt pouch for it.

Got this to replace my lost Leatherman Skeletool and I like it so much better! No bits to lose, has scissors that actually work quite well, has a spring on the pliers, all of the tools lock in place so nothing will accidentally close while in use, it feels just as well made as the Leatherman imho, and I could go on. It doesn't have the built in "carabiner", but I never used it anyway so no big deal to me. Overall, I honestly don't see how you could go wrong on this one as its EVERYTHING the 'tool' is, PLUS has the added functionality of scissors, locks and costs less. It is a little bulkier but has more tools, so I think its worth it. Hope this helps!

The quality of the Gerber is second to none with all stainless steel constructtion, razor sharp knifes and tough Phillips & flat-head screwdrivers. The spring-loaded pliers are a nice-touch, and the bottle opener is a must at the end of a tough day. For such quality you would expect to pay double.

Ich habe bereits die S-Klassen der Multi-Tools. Das Leatherman Surge und Victorinox Swiss-Tool CS. Bei diesen Werkzeugen wird bei mir das Kind im Manne geweckt: Haben wollen! Entsprechend verwöhnt bin ich auch und meine Messlatte ist entsprechend hoch. Das Gerber Suspension hat meine Neugier geweckt. Zum einen, dass das Multi-Tool von der Top-Marke "Gerber" ist, zum anderen, dass es rund € 30,00 inkl. Versand kostet. Ebenso hat mich die Vielzahl an Tools als auch die kompakte Größe getriggert. Die Rezensionen sprachen ebenfalls für das Tool. Und was man hier für € 30,00 bekommt ist schlichtweg der Wahnsinn. Die Verarbeitung, die Qualität der einzelnen Tools, sowie die Funktionalität ist der Hammer. Hier hat man wirklich alles zusammen, was man für Unterwegs so brauchen könnte. Ich spare mit die Auflistung der einzelnen Funktionen, da diese bereits umfangreich aufgelistet sind. Wichtig ist, dass alle Funktionen gegeben sind und absolut prima funktionieren. Die Zange ist echt eine Wucht und kann für ihre Größe ordentlich anpacken. Diese hat sogar ein Federmechanismus der dafür sorgt, dass man diese nicht per Hand auseinander öffnen muss. Auch sorgt eine Gummierung an der Außenseite des Tools für den notwendigen Grip bei Kraftaktionen. Also von diesem Patent können sich die großen Guru's der Multi-Tools ein Stück von abschneiden. Sehr schön finde ich auch, dass jedes einzelne Tool sicher arretiert wird, so das ein versehentliches Zuklappen bei kraftvollen Arbeiten verhindert wird. Toll finde ich auch die Möglichkeit, die Messerklingen (Glatt- und Wellenschliff) mit einer Hand öffnen zu können. So ist es schnell und spontan bei Arbeiten in sekundenschnelle Einsatzbereit. Die Klingen selber sind ultrascharf. Die Messerklingen und auch die Säge sind nicht besonders groß, aber für das kompakte Design absolut ausreichend. Jedes Tool hat seine absolute Daseinsberechtigung und ist qualitativ auf sehr hohen Niveau. Das Suspension von Gerber braucht sich keineswegs vor den Modellen von Leatherman und Victorinox zu verstecken. Ganz im Gegenteil. Wer schon immer mit einem Multi-Tool geliebäugelt hat, sich aber noch unsicher ist, sollte hier zuschlagen! Die € 30,00 sind mehr als gerechtfertigt und ihr werdet eure wahre Freude haben.

Wonderful product and really stainless used in sea water dosent rust reliable product I have taken two of them

The looking system for the tools works well. It could be better explained as it took me a couple of days before I realised you have to pinch both side of the body to pull the release mechanism. I used o be an engineer so I think I cant be alone in not understanding it straight away. Otherwise well made and easy to use. The scissors are not as good as on a Swiss army knife but work. The knife blade is fantastic and sharp as a razor.

Very sturdy and manageable, really like it
