The Leatherman Free T2 ($40) is strange and confusing. Rather than being designed as a pair of pliers, like most of Leatherman's lineup, the Free T2 is a pocketknife like a Swiss Army knife. For its size, you don't get many tools. Its standout feature is the full-size flathead and Phillips screwdriver bits that run in-line to the handle, alongside a medium-size knife blade, but they just didn't impress. There's also a ton of cheap plastic on it. Gerber's Center-Drive ($104) has the most convoluted opening system I've seen yet. It's made of a bunch of tiny moving parts, some metal and some plastic. I prefer few-to-zero tiny moving parts when it comes to hand tools because it reduces the chances of tools jamming up. My big hot-dog fingers found it hard to use overall, not to mention it's expensive. It does come with a gorgeous leather pouch though.
