First and foremost, I would consider the scissors to be the most impressive tool in the bunch. With other multi-tools that I’ve either owned or used, many of them have pliers as their fold-out tool, but I’ve come to find that I tend to need scissors more often within my lifestyle. When testing the scissors, they worked great on paper and thin boxes like the one the tool came in. They also spring back to their starting point easily. However, I did try to use them on a plastic Amazon delivery bag, and it didn’t work so well.
The 420HC knife is a great feature as well — honestly, it will probably be the most utilized tool other than the scissors for future use. I was able to open packages and cut thinner camping rope with ease. However, at 1.6 inches, it is a fairly small knife, so I won’t expect to be cutting wood for kindling with it.
Another aspect of the tool I thoroughly enjoyed is the ruler. All you need to do is align the two handles side by side, and you’ll have a 4.7 inch and 12 centimeter ruler.
