SQT2048 20-in-1 Multitool, Foldable & Self-Locking, Professional Tool for DIY, Home Repairs, Outdoor Camping – Must-Have Gifts for Men, Compact, Durable, All-in-One Tool for Every Task

I was looking forward to getting this tool, watched the reviews online and reviews here and was very confident in committing to this purchase. Now that i've finally receieved it, there are some issues that make this tool little less great initially, but nothing a few little tweaks couldn't fix. 1. Plier jaws do not close completely, leaving about a 1.5mm gap. (I rectified this by grinding away a bit of the flat steel on the frame that was touching causing it to not fully close) 2. Scissors do not lock into place like the other outer tools. Because of this, the Scissors do not have any spring action- have to manually open and close. This also causes the Scissors to close into tool when trying to use. There is a liner lock there, but it seems too long so cannot lock. (I rectified this by grinding away a bit of excess steel left over on the Scissors at the pivot) 3. Micro bit driver was missing. (I ended up taking one I had from another multitool that fit perfectly) 4. Very minor dings and scratches on the plier head. (Doesn't really matter to me, its a tool, I'm sure in the coming days I'll add more) 5. Pliers doesn't open up very wide. (After a few hours of working it in, it opens a bit wider now, but still not super wide) Other than all those issues listed that I've basically resolved, the tool looks & feels like a very premium quality tool. Steel quality of the blade could be better, but for 30usd, I really can't compalin. SQT, please, a bit more quality control would be appreciated. I'm still gonna give it 5 stars even with the issues I had, mainly because it was only 30usd and as I said before the tool looks and feels very premium. The tool set for this price range is more than reasonable and none of the issues would have really caused the tool to be a paper weight. 100% recommend this multitool.

Got this for the vegetable garden, and woah didn’t realize how much I would use it. Quality is good for the price and again it is for a vegetable garden so it is good enough for what I use it for.

This tool offers all the functionality of the leading brands at a fraction of the cost. The fit and finish is good, with no sharp edges that can affect the user. All tools deploy and lock up with ease. The inclusion of a pocket clip. Is much appreciated. I love using my multi tools, but I have frequently broken and lost my trusty Leatherman Waves and Sidekicks. This is a great price point for replaceable tool that will see heavy use. I’ll be back for another when this one walks off.

I'm not a multitool or tool expert, but I used this tool on job sites for 340 hours, used every tool except the can-opener, and used it more than a dozen times per day. General: 4/5. I love the feel in your hand. It's a nice weight, rounded in the right places, and you do feel well-equipped to take on whatever physical tasks may confront you throughout the day at work or play. I have to agree with one (real) mutli-tool expert on YouTube that this is the best (or among the very best) values for the money among the cheap tier of medium-sized multi-tools. It's a near-clone of a Leatherman tool, takes its design cues from them, is aesthetically attractive, mostly ergonomic, and for less than 1/3 or so of the price, is quite hard to beat. The exterior tools are all easy to unfold and lock beautifully. The interior tools also lock beautifully, but the design for unfolding them should have been better thought out. The tool gets extra points because it at least gives every indication of being fully disassembleable with a star bit, and has a pocket clip, which is removable upon disassembly. However, there are some definite flaws. The only over-arching flaw would be the less-than-maximal steel hardness of the tool. This has got to be a price-saving measure, but for what I paid ($29.99 plus tax), it would seem to me to be ridiculous to expect more. But at 340 hours intermittent use, there are noticeable dings scratches and general signs of wear. But let's go tool by tool: ★ Pliers: 5/5. According to Leatherman, this triangular plier shape is the strongest, which makes sense intuitively. To make this claim, Leatherman would have had to have done tests, and this clone therefore benefits from those tests. The pliers are great. While they are not spring-action and are not multiplied in strength by any lever action or jaw-locking mechanism, this is a smaller and more minimalist tool than the tools with those plier-features, so no point deductions there. The pliers are smooth, well aligned, have no unintended play, and the serrations line up perfectly. They only close fully at the very end, and there is a tiny fraction-of-a-millimeter space where they do not meet, but I believe this to be a feature and not a bug, intended to minimize wear. The needle-nose element overlaps slightly with where the utility of tweezers leaves off, which is one reason you know they are good. The regular-plier function (the concave cutaway) is serviceable but unremarkable. ★ Wirecutters: 5/5. Replaceable and cut like butter. ★ Wirestrippers: 4/5. No complaints but nothing particularly excellent about them. ★ Knife: 3.75/5. Decent but the steel hardness makes it lose its sharpness by half after maybe about 4 accumulated hours of whittling and other varied use. One-hand openable until it gets gummed up. Once oiled it's back to normal, or better. ★ Serrated knife: 4.25/5 Quite good. Still very sharp despite lots of use on plastic, wood, twine, etc. I do like the added functionality of the hook blade on the top edge of the serrated knife, but as you can see from the promotional video demonstrating this tool's functionality, it was NEVER sharp, and even when brand new required a second-effort to cut through twine. Smh. And I'm not sure how to sharpen it. Would be awesome if it started out just as sharp as the other blades. ★ "Diamond" File and Wood file: 2.5/5. Cheap-feeling, smaller than on other multi-tools. It is shortened in order to accommodate the pliers, which saves maybe 1.3 mm of width. I'm left wondering if that milimeter is worth it. Not sure, but I think I would rather have an excellent set of files. The wood file is 2/5 and the diamond, which I doubt is diamond, is 3/5. I wasn't too mad about the diamond file when I realized that it is truly an (5/5) nail file. ★Scissors: 4.25/5. Great. They lock very well (unlike what one dip-nut on YouTube said who reviewed this tool without ever having used it even once, smdh). They are smooth and satisfying to use. They got dull faster than I would like (see steel hardness), but I may or may not have abused them a little bit and used them for other than their strict factory purpose. (In the video I included it seems difficult to make the scissors lock. That is only the case if you are trying to do it one-handed. They lock just fine.) ★ Saw: 4/5: A bit ergonomically awkward in the hand, and so sharp as to stick rather than slide, but that may be a function of the living and sappy softer (fir) woods I was using it on. While certainly no substitute for even a sub-par bow saw, it worked well in a pinch and did its intended job well enough in the end. ★ Reversible/removable Philips head/flathead: 1.75/5. Grr. This is the only feature that actually makes me mad. This would be a 5 out of 5 if for but one fact: The d*mn bit is not secure in the chuck! It just randomly fell out for no reason after only one use, despite the little spring-loaded bearing in the bit meant to keep it in place. Either splurge for a magnet or do your measurements correctly, engineers!—preferably both. There's no excuse for this except on a trash-quality, 99¢-store tool. The bit was missing for at least a week, but luckily I found it eventually. I learned to keep it in place with a tiny twig or a piece of folded paper. So now it works beautifully. I just have to shim it in with something every time. Maybe super-gluing a very thin piece of metal in would fix the problem, but I don't know. ★ Awl: 4/5. Does it's job. Sharp in the point and the edge is sharp enough to shave skin off my thumb while not strictly being a knife blade. ★ Large Flathead Screwdriver: 2/5. The Edge needed to be thicker. Had it been thicker, the multi-tool would still be as versatile as it needed to be, since there is also a smaller flathead screwdriver in this tool, as already mentioned. It bent a bit, and rather too easily. Some will say, "but you used it on the wrong size screw!" I will say, "incorrect, IT was the wrong size." If it had been the correct thickness, I wouldn't have had to use it on the wrong size screw. There should be no redundancy of functionality between the two flathead elements. Engineers get a C- on that assignment. ★ Carrying Case/Belt-Pouch: 2/5. Like almost all of the pouches for these multi-tools that are not made of leather and that do not come with the top-tier multi-tools, this pouch is junk. It makes no accommodation for the fact that there is a pocket clip, and so unnecessary wear accrues on the pouch. I just threw it away. In any case, I want to use a tool, not look like a tool. 😝. ★ Pocket Clip: 5/5. Extra points for being removable. While I work with plastic Vexar netting which would occasionally slide under the clip and pull the tool out of my pocket, taking it dangerously away from me and landing the tool who knows where, I can't imagine a design that would prevent that from happening, so no deductions there. I just learned to keep it in a different pocket. ★ Removable/Reversible Phillips and Flathead Eyeglass Screw Driver: 5/5. Solid design, unique feature. Totally awesome. ★ Can Opener ?/5. I didn't actually use it so I won't speak on it with any authority, but it seems quite well machined visually speaking. There is also a semicircular little blade Edge machined into the bottom edge of the can opener. I forget what that is for. I didn't use it but it does seem sharper than the hook blade on the serrated blade.

This multi tool does everything I need it to do and nothing I don't. I use it everyday. I'm not sure what kind of steel the blade is made of, but it's sharp out of the box and easy to keep sharp. The plyers are 420J2 steel. There is no side to side play. It comes with a pocket clip, unlike a Leatherman. It comes with a sheath unlike a Leatherman. Depending on the one you choose, it comes with extra wire cutters unlike a Leatherman. Its not too big not too heavy the only outside tool that is not one handed opening is the saw. I love it. You could buy three for cost of one Leatherman wave.

Very good product everything is sharp and steady

Looks good and sharp knife but that’s all the tool offers. The blade was hard to deploy, I had to use a lot of force. It was not that it would have broken in with time, it felt like the thing had poor tolerances. The scissors dug into my thumb and were not even good performance wise. I would rather spend more money and but a name brand

I buy a lot of these multitools... I don't know why but I just like collecting them. This is one of the best of the leatherman wave + type clones. Very similar to the Shall. I think the Shall is the best by a hair. They say most of these are made in the same factory in China but I have my doubts since the build quality varies greatly.

Quite well made. I have used it several times. Only a bit heavy. Everything works well. Am happy with it.

Infelizmente, o preço de um leatherman no Brasil é proibitivo. Esse produto é uma excelente opção alternativa: preço acessível (principalmente com desconto), bem construído e com várias funções úteis. Não tive os problemas com o acabamento que foi relatado nas outras avaliações. Vamos ver se ele tem uma boa durabilidade com o tempo de uso.

Delivered on time, unlike the leatherman my wife ordered for me that never arrived. The tool itself is great in every respect so far. Wish it came with some alternative screwdriver bits but otherwise a very good tool. I looked up SQT and if appears that they manufacture their own as well as some other distributors tools (discovered that a multitool that I've had for a decade was made by them).

Tiene suficiente filo, la sierra funciona perfecto, la lima es muy pequeña y no es de lo mejor, en general buena navaja

Excellent quality Great value for money considering the weatherman surge cost more than 2 to 3 the price of this. Definitely recommend
