    The first run of Center Drives had major QC issues (I had to warranty my first one twice after it broke doing light work) but they finally got QC under control. I love my Center Drive now that they got the QC right. If they come out with a version that has a wood saw I’m gonna be on it like crooked on a politician

    The Gerber multi tools are better than most others on the market, but they still can't hold a candle to Leatherman. When you think about the tough spots that a tool like this can get you out of, saving a few bucks just isn't worth it in the end. Leatherman FTW all day.

    I was issued Leatherman and Gerber multitools when I was active duty Air Force. I like them both. But the one handed opening with the Gerber models is pretty handy to have.

  • @daviddunaway868
    @daviddunaway868 3 роки тому +3

    Had mine (the 1st version) for a few years now and really love it. The one handed opening is just too handy. That is what I have always liked about Gerber MTs. There are two things I would change if I could. 1) I would like to see more heavy duty Wire Cutters. Think Leatherman Supertool. I have broken the Carbide Cutters before cutting things I am sure I should NOT have. 2) Replace that "serrated" blade, or whatever it is, with a proper saw. The scissors are a nice touch but I prefer a saw. Again just being nit picky because I love my Center Drive.

    i am only going to say one thing that people have been missing with the centerdrive and why i think it is the best diy multitool barring those that are camping afficienados and that is being able to use bit sockets on the centerdrive .this in my opinion gives it an advantage to all the rest not to mention if used correctly the other tools work great as well. you can also use the bit drive at a 90 degree angle to loosen tight screws or nuts then straighten it out to complete the extraction as normal and reverse to give a little extra tightening force as well. i have done all these and it works well and you can fit a couple bit sockets on the bit holder as well and carry in the sheath with no problem.i have a 8mm 10mm and 12mm socket in my bit holder.

      spring assisted is nice, but I find the pliers are weak on the Center Drive. They defect way to easy and the cutters are garbage. Me and a work buddy were testing the cutters, I had my Surge and he the Center Drive. Surge made a clean cut through 18 and 14 gauge stranded, while the Center drive mashed the ends.
      Cutters broke on the Centerdrive at 12 gauge solid, while the Surge made it down to 10 gauge solid

    Sir, its refreshing to see you review multitools respectfully. I love my Gerber Suspension NXT. I know its not the Center Drive but for the money I like the tool set and the number of functions. I really like your video on the Schrade Tough Tool, I recently acquired one of those too. I really find it useful and at a great price. Both tools are very budget friendly. I love quality and don't mind paying for it, especially for a friend or loved one. For myself, I'm all about the bargain and both tools are decent quality as well.

    I've had mine for a couple of years and like it a lot. I have the original version and don't like the nylon sheath that came with it so I purchased a USA made bench craft leather sheath. It doesn't hold the bits however I really don't use more than 2 of them. Like the full size blade for sure,it did require edge work. Had many multi tools and this one is a hard to beat one!! Great video!

  • @user-zf2kp9ki3b
    @user-zf2kp9ki3b 3 роки тому

    My biggest issue with gerber is plier squeezing power. I did a test where I squeezed a piece of plastic with one hand as hard as I could and the gerber barely left a mark where the leatherman wave completely flattened the material. Also the pliers rattle where the wave are fixed. It only takes a few seconds more to open a wave which you can do with one hand anyway and you get way more tools, a smaller footprint and less bulk and weight. Yes the center drive bit holder is awesome but the leatherman still does the job very well and has a huge advantage because you can use it in tight spaces as well. Gerber should have made the small bit holder usable as a driver.

  • @brianleasure1788

      Except they are made to fail ,I went to leatherman and have never looked back. They don't guarantee them for life for nothing. Kind of like Ruger pistols ,you can buy it once , or ? Multitools are something that grows on you after awhile , you feel naked without it. I went off brand too I've got like 3 or 4 brands and they all failed one way or the other. Where as I could of just bought #1 leatherman and been done with it. Peace.

    I've had an original Gerber multi tool since they first came out as an answer to the Leatherman back in the early 90s. Used to carry it at work and used the crap out of it. I don't carry it anymore because I've had an office job for the last 20 years and just don't need it very often but it does reside in the cup holder on my desk and gets used to pull staples or tighten the occasional screw. That new one looks nice, wish I needed it.

      As a person that has the Gerber center drive plus it is absolutely horrible. I have a P4 Leatherman surge and Leatherman wave and several other Gerber's I don't understand how the center drive is so highly regarded. It's very clunky and the design is asymmetrical a lot of unevenness in the gripping area making it a screw-driving nightmare. Believe me as soon as I got it out of the package felt it in my hands I instantly regretted it.

    Our son is a cell tower technician, we gave him one for his birthday. One reason we chose the Centerdrive was it uses the standard 1/4 bits so he can customize his kit to the bits he uses most when is 250 feet up in the air. The Leatherman uses a preparatory bit that are very expensive compared to the common bits. He loves it.

    Still have my first gerber from the early 90s before they designated it the MP. It seems rudimentary today but it still works as designed including the fast deploy pliers. It has a real Simmons file on it which is cool. Had to be a manly man to use the tools though as nothing locked lol. Completely US made including leather sheath. Weird how fanboys of gerber or leatherman fight it out. to me both are good depending on preference. I have several of both.

    I bought the leatherman plus for about $160 a month & a half ago, I bought it to take on a long road trip. Within the first 4 weeks of owning it I realized it was a very fradgile piece of equipment. If all you need to do is tighten your glasses and remove pistol grips it’s fine. But don’t expect to open any cans, dig out any mushrooms, unscrew the unscrewable, or even dig out a weed bowl. Most expensive fradgile piece of equipment I’ve ever come across. Save yourself the money and get the gerber. Hell even customize it for the same price as a leatherman

Do you know why the military issues the Gerber multitool is because it’s cheap they don’t issue you the Leatherman because they cost a little bit more and better made.

      I have a leatherman, cause I found it, the other 2 multi tools I have are gerbers, but both times I purchased them I held the gerbaer in one hand and the leatherman equivalent in the other, I dunno, just like the gerber better, seems more ergonomic too for my hands

      @@trooper2221 yeah I have a gerber and a couple off brands, but for me the leather is best. Really it all just comes down to your own preference. As long as the get the job done they are good.

    I wanted a centerdrive but due to stupid U.K laws I wouldn't really be able to carry it, so went for the mp600 bladeless and even removed the remgrit blade as its almost useless, super happy with the mp600 though its alot better than my leatherman wingman.

    File on these multitool is great! I have a lot of leatherman and victorinox multitool and the file on center drive is anpar with victorinox file.
    Obviously is not for hard metal.... Your screw seems to be hard metal for the sound.
    These multitool files are for non templated iron, copper, aluminum, bronze etc... Not for any tipe of steel.

Send me an email at SurvivalOnPurpose (at) gmail (dot) com _ Hopefully that will confuse the spambots. We can talk and I'll try to get with my email provided and see what the issue is.
