Gerber Clutch multi-tool: High Value Utility

Posted on February 20th, 2010 by admin

The Gerber Clutch multi-tool (MT) proves that mini tools dont have to be expensive to be useful. It possesses most of the utility had by larger tools, albeit with reduced leverage. In the Clutch you can find needle nosed pliers, wire cutters, a well-shaped blade, two-dimensional drivers, tweezers, and a nail maintenance tool. Another bonus over some competitors, like the Leatherman Squirt P4, is a conventionally ground and larger blade that could fill many of your EDC roles. Possible downsides would include: a bit larger size and more weight than the P4 MT (the mini MT class leader I think) and the smallest flathead screw bit needed some grinding for additional precision. But at a mere $12 (more or less) the Gerber Clutch multi-tool offers a ton of utility in a compact package at a bargain price. ////////////////////Nutnfancy Likeability Scale: 7 out of 10

    I enjoyed your review on the Gerber-Clutch, very surprised by the price! I posted a video response on my mystery mini multi-tool. it’s about a minute , and does not do it justice. Feels like your holding a full size Leatherman, very tight, solid, scissors spring loaded, razor sharp, saw is awesome, screw driver tips
    work very well, pliers are very good..
    It is a 3 1/2 ” long and less than 1/2″ wide, very compact. Weak point is the knife blade,just seems to small,1 1/2 ” .what do you think

    since this knife has a softer steel, you can customize the tools…i turned the micro screwdrier into an AWL, and sharpened the curve on teh nail file to have a rope sort of cutter
