Great quality multi-tool for the price. I've purchased two. Opening and closing tools is tight and they lock into place. Spring loaded pliers work great.

I usually carry this in my pocket with me wherever I go because it is shocking how often I use it. The pliers and knife get used almost every day and I have definitely gotten my money's worth out of it. Every tool seems to be really well made and has lasted a lot of drops and abuse. The knife obviously is not a premier level knife but it has kept the edge so far and is perfect for most uses that you will come across in daily use.

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.

After having lost my G.S., I mulled-over whether or not I would buy another. Weeks went by. More research was done. Then, I decided to replace my G.S..... ...with a Leatherman Wave. ----------------- Mother's day 2010... I cannot believe this. I used my Gerber Suspension to cut a straw in a restaurant and left the dang thing on the table. Called back to the restaurant to see if it was still there, and guess what... it wasn't. I'm PISSED! It was an awesome field tool. Guess it's time to buy another ~ LOL. ----------------- (Several weeks before Mother's Day 2010...) I've been researching like crazy to find the best multi-tool for ME, and I've chosen the Gerber Suspension. Here's why... PRICE - Can't be beat unless you're buying it from Gweedo of the docks or off the back of a box-truck. SAFETY - It seems that when safety is a primary concern for a product such as this, you must sacrifice a bit of utility and functionality. No problem. I'd rather have a shorter knife plus tools that lock in place than pinched palms and blood-blisters. COMFORT - I've played around with Leatherman multi-tools, and they always leave this nagging feeling in my hand as if something's just not right. There simply is no comparison between handling the straight edges of Leatherman vs. the butterfly contour of the GS. The GS offers a far more ergonomic and "friendly" feel when being handled. Spring-loaded pliers on the GS also add to ease-of-use so I'm not using my middle finger as a "spring" as I would have with the Leatherman. EXPANDABILITY - The $8 bit kit squelches complaints about the lackluster philips head screwdriver. This inexpensive kit also helps to extend one's reach father than the Leatherman's stubby drivers. UTILITY - It's got everything a multi-tool needs. Though it would nice to have a file, I've found that the solution to this is to purchase a separate, small, flat file that fits in the case. KNIFE - One of the more attractive features of the Leatherman (Wave, Surge, TTi) is the knife. Leatherman offers a beefy knife with THOSE models, but not-so with their other traditional models. Apples to apples between the GS and standard Leatherman multi-tools proves the GS blade to be comparable. If I need to perform hardcore cutting, I wouldn't use a multi-tool blade anyway. RULE NUMBER ONE with any tool is to use the RIGHT tool for the job...ESPECIALLY if it has a cutting edge. With this in mind, the GS's knife is spot-on for mundane tasks like cutting string, cardboard, rubber hoses, cloth, etc. If I'm sharpening a stick to make it into a spear, I'd rather use a bowie. WEIGHT AND MECHANICAL - Nothing wrong here. Great weight. Rigid. Tool-draw stiffness wears off with use (as it should). Now, the only reason I give it four stars instead of five is the fact nothing deserves five stars until I've used and abused it for more than six months. I would rather come back and post glowing highlights deserving of a five-star redux after I've applied the GS to some real-world situations. So, would I ever recommend, say, a Leatherman Wave, over the Gerber Suspension? Maybe...as soon as Leatherman brings its price-point down to around $35, adds spring-loaded pliers, extends the reach of their bits, and does something about palm pinching. Otherwise, I think anyone who needs a medium-duty EDC multi-tool will be delighted with the GS. Finally, there's that issue of the GS being made in China. It sucks that it's not American made, but I have nothing against Chinese people, nor do I care to apply politics to "toolism". At least being made in China allows American small business owners to afford the wholesale cost of this product and make some money to feed their American families when people buy it. The GS is still designed by American engineers who work at an American company. Let's not complicate the issue, though. Does the GS do what it's supposed to do, offer better-than-expected performance, and do so at a great price-point? Yes. 'Nuff said. -

I needed to update my Leatherman multi-tool after 20 years. The issue was there was no locking mechanism for any of the tools on my vintage Leatherman. It cut and pinchedme too many times. So I tried the Gerber Suspension NXT. Gerber hit a home run! This tool is the perfect size, perfect heft, perfect set of features for everyday use. Of course, like a good pair of boots, its stiff and tight coming out of the box. After a wear-in period, it feels trustworthy. I have found a worthy replacement for the Leatherman at half the price. The tools: the knife is sharp and holds its edge. The awl is almost as sharp as the knife (careful!). The phillips screwdriver is somewhat small (#1 size). The needle nose plyers are strong and fit in tight spaces. I dont have much use for the small scissors, but they can cut short lengths. I wish they had made course and fine files instead of a useless 1-1/2 inch scale, but thats a minor point. Overall, this is a great multi-tool with everything you need and nothing you dont. Highly recommended!
