Any comments or experiences anyone wants to share? it looks like a pocket carry sized multitool.


I have one, it's a nice tool. I like it better than the original swisstool. However, I took the serrations off the blade, as I prefer a plain edge. It would also be nice if the blade had a point, but the awl works fine for that. The two things that I don't like about it is; the pliers only touch at the tip and the polished finish is slippery. I carry it as my "dress" multitool. It fits nicely in a watch pocket and it's thin for all the functions it has. Plus they make a corkscrew for it. grin


The Spirit "S" has a regular Vic SAK style blade (as well as the serrated peanut butter spreader smile ), but loses the scissors in the trade.

Standard 1/4" hex bits will work in it. The wrench is set up for use as a screwdriver but should be able to handle small socket work with a converter bit.
