Ur simple minded if u put an edge on it it can cut trees u can use the point to the end as a hammer the point as a hoe to plant seed in a long term situation the scrap for makeing wood shavings for a fire it’s metal so it make a spark with a flint. So I would take this for surviving on an island if there was an edge

Dude as a painter, Ive known for 20+ years the 5way (thats what painters in GA call em) is the end-all be all for: opening beers, spliting blunts, throwing at targets, self defense, cutting sandwiches, applying condiments, negotiating payments, and works pretty decent on all that other stuff you mentioned.

I apologize for being wordy. I am a KZbin fan of yours. I am writing this to several presenters. About 60 years ago, I took high school woodshop. Thereafter, I learned a few basic things from my grandfather and father. Over the following 20+ years, I had neither the money nor the space to do any woodworking. About 25 years ago, some tools were passed on to my by parents, so I took over my garage, but my skill was rudimentary; the things I created were crude and imprecise, but I enjoyed the process. About 5 years ago, I got very sick. During my recovery, I discovered you and your colleagues on KZbin. Since then, I have been a junky watching mostly woodworking videos. I must THANK YOU and your colleagues for teaching me so very much. I moved to a new home and created a shop on casters (I have to move cars) and have tried many of the things YOU have taught me-and bought way too many new tools!. I now spend as much time as possible in my shop and have actually created some pretty good project products and shop furniture. Without you to help me through my convalescence and your clearly understandable videos, I don’t think I would be enjoying this hobby as I do. Thank you and the whole KZbin woodworking community.

As a career handyman/tradesman I have worn many hats and carried many tools. Flooring, drywall, carpentry, surface refinishing, etc and a 5way is hands down the most essential tool out of an *extremely* limited list of tools that are invaluable no matter the job and it can even replace others on that list in a pinch- looking at you, razor knife i just had and now can't find. I've seen guys shrug their shoulders over losing an expensive drill, but i've also seen roofers drop their $10 5way and make a special trip down the ladder just to fetch it and if you know anything about roofing or a roofer's mindset you'd know going down that ladder without a damn good excuse is a cardinal sin. This tool has so many uses beyond what's displayed here and half of them you don't realize until you improvise. One of my favorite uses is to simply use it to pry back flashing on a metal roof so I can get my brush behind it onto the fascia- gives a much better finished look when you don't have paint on your metal and can't find a cut line because it's behind/under the flashing.

Never thought about it. I have about 5. The wood handle embee tools are the best. If you can find one, sand off the base handle wood and expose the steel. Now it is a chisel too. Most of the newer chinese models are junk. That is why i have 5 of them.

I am A siding installer, have been for thirty years. this is the best tool in my tool bags, I use it at least 30 times a day. I could not live with out it. esp useful for getting the steel fascia under the drip edge, no other tool works as good period. its a life saver. and very useful for stretching up a low siding panel to match your siding line when a panel or two gets low. for vinyl or steel siding. just put it under the nailing flange and give it a shove up, and staple it into place. I would pay 50 bucks for this tool if i had to. it saves me that much in time on a day to day basis. love it.

Great video! As a drywall finisher, painter, and for carpentry uses, (I've used it for ALL these) Tip: First thing to do with the tool is to sharpen the leading edge to knife sharpness, including the back side of the pointed part. Sharpen ONLY the beveled side, and, if necessary create a matched bevel on the inside of the point. Use a well-stabilized or bench grinder. and finish as you would any precision blade. You will find just how handy this is should you neglect to sharpen it in this way. You will most like do it as soon as you discover its insufficient sharpness. It is also useful as the go-to tool for house and even engine cleaning and prying. Whether in those window corners (and some windows have lattice or even odd-stained glass shapes, so that sharpened point will be useful in perfectly finishing painting. House cleaners, working on floor and any surface edge will vastly improve the speed of their complete cleaning with this tool. In a pinch it will unscrew and screw your razor knife to change blade, or even remove switch plates. You will need to carry less tools around in noncarpentry jobs. Ive used it for so many things that they cannot be itemized here. I always keep two, one in car for emergencies.

I've said the same thing for years. There are several tools that lose their spot in the belt to the 5-1. Also, the longer the flat edge, the crappier the 5 in 1. I prefer the stubier 5 in 1 like the one you are holding in your garage for the interview portion of this video. NOT the wider HUSKY 5 in 1. There are different classes of 5 in 1. There has to be a point to stop adding on the this tool. I personally don't even like the teardrop nail puller. Glad to see someone else that values the 5 in 1.

I came upon this video and since I have been using one as a carpenter for over 30 years I had to watch. HC pretty much nailed it. Introduced my son to one 20 years ago and he told me that pretty much every guy in his VW bus club now has one in their toolbox. Good job HC. What is a 5 in 1 now like a 15 in one.

Bought one a few months ago based on this video for about £6. Have used it probably a few dozen times since, from scraping off caulking, taking off door jambs, removing plastic beading, cleaning paint rollers, removing wallpaper, opening beers, scraping off high spots of wall filler. Etc. Probably the best value for money tool that I have bought.

I'm a woodworker, but I have some houses that I need to take care of. This tool has been with me for years. I strip out caulk in all houses every four years, including mine, and recaulk, and this thing takes out old caulk from sinks and tubs quickly. Harbor Freight finally came out with a good one a year or two ago at a really good price, but they last so long, I haven't needed to buy one yet. The HUSKY I bought years ago even came with screw heads that can be inserted. I keep that blade and curve just sharp enough to clean build-up and dried junk. I already have a roller tool. Thanks for keeping this to the point, quick, and on topic. I'm a high school teacher, and some of the videos I watch make me look for new ones to watch.

Thank you for making such an amazing video. I love great content. Honest to God I've seen them and I've never used a single one of them for anything other than scraping paint. The first thank you is also for showing me another tool I need to add back to my tool collection. I haven't seen my last one in years. When it comes to paint rollers, they're a dime a dozen for the most part and I hate wasting paint. That is freaking annoying.

I don't think I've ever used it for painting - though that's what I bought the first one for! I use it all the time to remove trim - i cannot believe how strong it is as a short pry bar. In remodeling work (as distinct from demolition and reconstruction) it really comes into its own. With a hammer, my favorite thin, short flat pry-bar and a Stanley knife - I'm off. I have abused these too. They can be hammered through the occasional nail when nothing else reaches and a sawzall is a 'nuclear option'. Yeah, a machete might be the first desert island choice -but this thing is right behind - together with a roll of baling twine.
