🛠 A SOG Multitool I Like?!? (Powerpint, $50, 4.2oz)

[@HouseBamo]

Regarding the locks; if you open any other tool half way you can close the tool you’re using without opening the pliers … try it out

[@magicg8112]

You beat me to saying that. I second your observation.

[@Thomamps]

Yeah I did this from the start as my second multitool was the Supertool.

[@bigjim55able]

I just got mine. This was very helpful. Thanks!

[@MasterYoist]

That's not really a good idea if you do it too often as it can wear out the lever lock mechanism much faster than it would normally. I had this happen with two tools. When it happens, the blades can open and close on their own.

[@tonyrulez69]

That's true for all multitools that share a single lock. Leatherman works the same way, halfway opening a tool pushes the locking tab off.

[@anothorestes]

This is my most-carried tool by far. So tiny but so useful! I've had mine for a few years but it didnt have any of the issues you had with your first one, so they must have updated it a while ago. I use pretty much all the tools, except the pull cutter. The little awl/icepick is quite sturdy and comes in handy more than you might expect

[@EquilaAvin]

Just got one at Walmart and I love it! The scissors are a minor setback but I only use the scissors to open candy wrappers. Overall I love it the powerpint is my favorite mutitool so far. Thanks for the video it helped me a lot! Keep up the good videos!

[@davidkay1386]

I bought 2 of these over the years. I have ended up giving them away to people that really need a multitool but didn’t have one. They are good little multitools.

[@hdbodie2395]

I keep this in a small zippered pouch with a small tin with common bits and a few tools for a lite tool set. Leatherman ratchet fits in the bit holder as well as long as you keep pressure on it. Thanks for all the great vids!

[@abc456f]

I found a Boker plus nylon sheath that fits the PowerPint and a six piece bit holder. But doesn't it piss you off that they didn't include a flat head driver? Could have been really great but it loses so much functionality without an included flat head. The designers must have been high and forgot that a multitool should always have a flat head driver.

[@simonh6371]

Thanks for the detailed and thorough review! Being in the UK where we can't EDC locking blades this one actually registers on peoples' radar here, the reason being that it's easy to make it ''UK friendly'' i.e. street legal by modifying the blades by dremelling off the part which makes them lock, or even just swapping them out for other tools, or removing them entirely. The price over here is around £50 which is good (even a Squirt PS4 is £45 nowadays) and as you say it is a bit niche due to there being so few decent multitools out there in this size category. Would be good carried with my Spyderco Urban, my currently preferred EDC knife. But the scissors let it down a bit, for me after blade the scissors are the second most important tool. As it is I often carry a slipjoint dedicated blade plus a SAK with scissors (the Moneyclip is a good one to fill that gap and add a serviceable little blade) plus a multitool e.g. Leatherman Bond, or the Knipex Cobra XS. Or a blade plus the Nextool Flagship Mini if I'm going light and compact, I know I can count on those scissors.

[@gazzoification]

Do you really worry about legal carry? How often do you get searched whilst out using your multitool? It's probably legal anyway if you have a good reason: like being able to save someone's life with the seatbelt cutter.

[@mkot8524]

Love this tool ! I made a little mod on it, I glue a little 6mm x1mm thick (file it to 0.7-0.8) magnet at the end of the handles that make it magnetic lock.

[@malverdetx8582]

The manufacturing is very inconsistent. I’ve owned about six this year alone. For some reason, the stainless steel versions I’ve owned had misaligned pliers with asymmetrical jaws, and the black oxide versions had misaligned handles when closed. I finally just settled on a black and stainless that still have some fitment issues because the tool is very useful and compact. It makes a great replacement for the Leatherman Juice.

[@maxlvledc]

That's what I'm worried about, it's embarrassing that they can't get their qC right.

[@abc456f]

No flat head!!! What the hell were they thinking?

[@jared8530]

Just got a PowerPint and I love how tiny it is and surprising good pliars and locking tools.

[@focusonthefocus]

I use the file all the time! Super good! Same issue with the scissor, and I had to use needle nose to get it where it needed to go.

[@Ipvpirl]

I'm glad you figured the scissors out, because I was about to go off, son.

[@dambroangling2828]

[@gideonchadwick805]

Love this tool. Has definitely earned its lace next to my Milwaukee fastback and And love your fair review! I was sooo happy to see you deemed the scissors usable after adjusting your approach in realtime. Thanks for the review!

[@Thomamps]

The 2 tools I've kept from SOG are the Power pint and the Power access assist (this tool is extra large and heavy with the 4 assist opening tools but it's just so different and fun to carry)

[@missiondiscover]

I have a power access deluxe and actually really like it. I know you are not a fan, but everyone is different. I like the deluxe since the 5 main tools are one handed, it comes with bits, and a good number of tools (no scissors though). Cutting geometry on the blade sucks, but I don't have it for the blade. The quality isn't Leatherman or victorinox, but is pretty good while being a lot cheaper.

[@5to522]

I have the same one in black and this little tool has been in my pocket since it arrived, even though I was kind of cold towards it in the beginning. What let me down big time was the almost useless scissors. Being used to Victorinox multitools and scissors which are the best in the world, I just choose to ignore the so called scissors on the Powerpint. Other than that, it's such a useful little tool with a great size pliers. I did modify mine a little and now I love it even more. I took a dremel and sandpaper to the bottle opener and turned the head into a medium sized flathead, I sharpened the can opener with the dremel and sandpaper so it actually opens cans now with ease, I sharpened the edge of the pull cutter so it comes down to a point to be able to puncture plastic packaging with it and pull cut, and I also rolled a fine sandpaper onto a q-tip and ran it down the pull cutter from the inside and sharpened it more so it cuts better. You might want to run the sandpaper on the back side to remove any burr. Now I know this powerpint will always be in my pocket no matter what other knife I'm carrying.

[@charlesheller5767]

Wow, those are good tips, thanks! I'm on my 4th Power Pint. I keep giving them away and getting a new one...

[@abc456f]

Don't you think it's ridiculous that the tool doesn't have a flat head built in? I've never come across any other multitool that didn't have a flat head, it's the most basic tool. My $15 Gerber dime has a flat head but the $50 PowerPint doesn't. I found a Boker plus nylon sheath that fits the tool plus a six piece bit holder. But I want to be able to just clip the PowerPint in my pocket than have to wear a sheath on my belt.

[@5to522]

@@abc456f I do find that ridiculous along with the useless scissors that don’t cut anything. I wish Victorinox would make a pocket sized multitool with pliers. Every multitool is a compromise where you have to sacrifice one thing for another. Luckily, they had a tool on there I could file down into a large flathead, but I can’t do anything about the scissors.

[@watevr4evr]

How's the paint? Someone mentioned black wears off and looks like crap but i dislike the shiny steel look

[@YoukklauTube]

I have 2 powerpint, the other with a cork screw. I can say I love them as well as hate them. Love the design: the plier mechanism, the bit holder; the size: just big enough to handle many tasks but smaller than many standard multitools. But hate the quality of many tools: knife and scissors not sharp; the file is too rough. One last thing I want to point out, I can one hand open and close the plier because of the design, no need to only go for P2 or P4 for such feature!

[@hrmIwonder]

It's because the scissors are left handed. So you have to push the handle towards the right to get a better cut.. just grabbed the black on at scheels in a combo pack with the centi 2 knife for $25.

[@arbiter1er]

This is my go to for anything related to my 3D printer. The pliers are small but strong enough to remove supports, the cutters snip filament amazingly well and the other tools do find their use as well

[@austinbridge]

I believe you can put the leatherman ratchet into the bit space and use that with it. Also, a tool can close by opening another tool a bit, then closing both.

[@MustaLaatta]

Without mods, but with some conciliation it's possible to fit leatherman rachet tool to the bit holder firmly. (Or other normal bitholder extensions straight of course)

[@leksasdf]

Have been waiting for them to restock black ones for a year and some just popped up yesterday! Good to hear that they redid the file.

[@jeremy1517]

My Powerpoint regularly opens/unfolds in my pocket. The arm without the pocket clip is much looser than the other arm.

[@EcyrBerin]

you can try bending the scissor blades towards each other -- that's why the leatherman and victorianox scissors work as well as they do.

[@senoB]

There are some things I like, like the gears give extra leverage; for such a small pliers it makes sense. However, many of the tools are quite substandard in functionality, fit and finish, etc. While I really like the form factor, I just couldn't justify the pocket space. SOG always has some great ideas but execution has left me wanting on multiple occasions. Edit: Looks like they have updated a number of tools. The file on mine (2020) was nigh worthless, like a nail file at best.

[@maxlvledc]

Same with the first one I played with.

[@Ryan_the_tinz]

I loved the size of my PowerPint. And my love stopped there. Mine did have a little side to side play, but that didnt really bother me. The biggest problem is the toolset. You can't even screw a #2 philips without carrying a bit set (go try it). I'd really like to see Leatherman make something between the Juice and Style/Squirt.

[@maxlvledc]

I'd love to see them make anything new at this point

[@17_plus_WON]

The philips on my Power pint works great. The flathead is another story tho. 1st time I used it, the corner of the tip bent. I don't use it often and it's still functional anyway. So no deal breaker for me. I carry the PowerPoint in my 5th pocket every day.

I am a huge leatherman fan, but…I absolutely love this tool. I only have/had one exception with it though, and i kind of that this speaks into Sog as a company. The quality control is hit or miss on these. My powerpint had really bad tool retention that would cause tools to randomly open, caused by improper washer placement/stacking. I tore the entire tool down and rebuilt it to my liking and have got to say its a go to now.

[@Mr_Bob_Stark]

Did you swap any tool in the Powerpint? I want to replace 1 or 2 tools but i don't know if i can fit a regular sog flathead in the little Powerpint...

Cool I’ve been curious about this! Would love to see you try using it (besides the scissors) as part of the review

[@maxlvledc]

I need a plier gauntlet..

[@cranstonsnord4334]

I have been looking at one of these for quite some time, and it went down to about 33 dollars, so I pulled the trigger! As you say the tool set is great. The 1/4-inch driver feature on it is nice also. I have no trouble getting the handles to close securely on driver bits though. I looked at the power liter but have no use for a corkscrew. Mine came with all the implements difficult to deploy and clump when opened. I have lubricated it but have not had much success loosening them. Tried loosening the pivot screws but they must have put Loctite on them and again, not much luck. It should loosen over time with use. The only other complaint I have is that it does not look or feel like a tool made by one of the major manufacturers of multitools. I have bought off brand name ones on Amazon that seem better quality than this. I do think it is a good tool for what I paid for it. I do not normally buy miniature multitools, but this one is not overly tiny like some others are.

It's crazy! Just saw that!

[@clodvonclout]

We both have similar concerns. I have the Leatherman original wave and I find it too bulky to EDC, hence I tandem carry a leatherman squirt P4 and victorinox manager. I rarely use the can opener hence this solution works for me. The new leatherman bond and leatherman curl are slim but still big to make a comfy EDC. The Powerpint in my opinion is just the right size for EDC and can do medium duty tasks that the squirt and manager tandem cannot do for the same footprint. Given the shortcoming mentioned in most reviews including yours. I decided to purchase the powerpint knowing its shortcoming, and I just mod it to make it better and just accept the flaws that cannot be modded. The size factor and convenience to carry is the main selling point for me. Quality is not Victorinox and Leatherman caliber. Not even close. But in my opinion, usable in a pinch for most EDC tasks. It doesn't do the best job, but it will get the job done. My complaints on the Powerpint / soltuions / acceptance 1. The blade - the shape for me is not usable. It is an inverted straight back blade. Where the straight back became the cutting edge and the curved cutting edge became the back part of the knife (blunt side). I wished they just flipped the blade and made it a regular straightback it would make it a proper knife. The blade is also not factory sharp, but again usable. And it can easily be fixed by sharpening it. 2. The pliers The pliers are great, but the wire cutter is crap. For thin 16AWG to 18AWG fine stranded wires, it can't cut in one cut, you have to do maybe 2 or 4 cuts as the wire is so thin it just slips between the cutting jaws. Not fun to use, but still it gets the job done. The squirt cuts in one snip. But the jaws of the squirt is just too weak compared to what the powerpint can do, so still powerpint for me. I don't cut wires often so I can live with it. I use the pliers more. 3. The Bottle Opener For me the shape of this tool is poorly designed, they favor putting a nail pry part to get the tool out. I cut this off and made it flat. This now gives me a pry bar and flathead screwdriver, making this the most used tool I use everyday. I followed the width of the squirt as i find those dimensions very usable. Since the tools clump together when opened, the more you don't need the nail pry part so cut them off to get more functionality on the powerpint. 4. Scissors My complaint is also the same, you can't open the scissors jaws big enough as the spring lever stops it from doing so. I don't expect to use the scissors much because of its design. But still, if you need to cut thread, tape or some other little stuff, it is still more convenient to use this that using the knife. It still gets the job done. So I just accepted its flaws. 5. File at par with the squirt with a much bigger file. So Im okay with this. If this was a diamond coated file this will sure give more points. Can't be compared to a wave file but still gets the job done. 6. Eyeglass screwdriver I love this, no complaints here. I use this for a lot of things. Piercing stuff, open torx head, anything. This is my multipurpose tool. 7. Awl I use this as a scraper for abusive jobs to give my knife a break from this. This things is pointy, even more pointy than the knife. 8. Can opener Never used, but yes the blade is blunt. I plan to sharpen this when i get the time. 9. cutting hook I don't have a use for this yet but i plan to sharpen the hook to supplement the crappy scissors. 10. The bit driver This accepts standard 1/4' bits. That is definitely a super plus for me. I don't use it, but for heavier tasks this is superior even to what the wave can offer. Not built in but you know you have it there. And with a bit extension and bits, you can use this for a lot of stuff In summary, The leatherman wave will do the job best with comfort 3x to 5x better. But with my age now, I don't like carrying the bulk The squirt and manager will also do the job best with comfort 2x better. But it cannot do medium duty tasks or take abuse. The power pint is not the best tool but it gets the job done. And I choose to EDC this because it is the best compromise to what is available in the market right now. So Leatherman, Victorinox, if you are reading this. I hope you make a multitool at this form factor I will definitely get one.

[@Dracomies]

I'm honestly thinking of rebuying this and just removing the scissors and a lot of the weak side tools and keeping this as a great tiny plier+file+serrated combo. Many of the side tools aren't good and are actually dangerous. Pliers are easily the best I've seen for something this size. I only like the tools on the right side (or was it the other side?). The tools on the left are too much crammed together and are actually dangerous (cut myself on some of those tools last time).

[@WolfWhistle-ef8er]

Had a sog reactor for years before it disappeared, may have to try this one out

[@StarDarkAshes]

It’s also a great self-defense tool because if you’re walking in a sketchy area, you can just open one of those pointy things that’s not really a knife set that if you had to use it on someone, the cops really couldn’t say you were trying to kill somebody because it’s just a screwdriver or something like that depending on how sharp you want to go. There’s like that one little pointy thing and no one’s gonna say we’re trying to kill anybody with that.😂

[@Dracomies]

I had an opposite reaction. I actually bought this and returned it a couple days ago. The pliers and the bit driver are amazing. The tools on the side are terrible. I don't like the way they slide out and how brittle, thin, unpolished they feel. They're nothing as good as Victorinox side tools. I returned it unfortunately.

[@maxlvledc]

Fair!

[@michaelbuddy]

Unfortunately the quality control on these powerpints isn't all that great. I had to return a silver and a black one due to fitment. My second silver one was great, second black one was only OK. I'm tempted to keep a band around it too because a couple of the exposed tools I really don't want them to come out. Form factor is great, several of the tools I don't trust. Don't like the awl / reamer tool too easy for them to come out. Key ring is terrible.

The scissors are quite disappointing. I think for the price you can probably get a Chinese Leatherman clone instead, but if the size is an issue, then this one's design is probably the best one I've seen for a tool this size.

Thank you for sharing. For me, it looks like sog might have tried to put to much in it. I would like to see a blade less version. Concentrate money on great scissor and a good diamond or boron file. And dedicated three dimensional #2 and #1 philips

That sounds excellent.

[@jbm8312]

@maxlvledc would you consider this less or more useful than a Juice S2?

[@maxlvledc]

Hmm, that's a tough one...

You can open an other tool partially to close the locked in tool. No need to open the whole thing! What I love about it is that it is so smooth that I can open the pliers one handed similar to open a balisong.

[@Q50Shameless]

how do daily users of this tool deal with needing new parts?

[@Rotellian]

Scissors are a real let down on mine, basically useless. But the tool is still excellent overall for its size and the geared pliers are fantastic on this model. I might see if I can stick some 74mm SAK scissors in.

Quick question, what is the ruler/knife you have at the side?

Link in Description, it's the handyman's helper 2

Leatherman, victorinox guy but looking at this from Santa. Never liked any scissors on multi tools… could this be removed modded even. ?

[@maxlvledc]

Hmm, not sure it's worth modding...I can't think of something good to replace it with that would fit.

Great video, what's that button lock folder model you shown beside the ganzo?

Thanks for clearing my mind to make this power pint purchase. I have a question. The Marbles Handymans Helper 11 is no longer available on Amazon. I looked on your site. Do they have a web site? Or does it come from china? You find the darndest things. I would like one of those handyman tools.

[@maxlvledc]

It's Discontinued

[@sterbean781]

Thanks for getting back on that. What a bummer. I will keep watching your posts to see what other cool items you have to show. And I ordered the power pint. Can't wait to see it.

[@abc456f]

Just can't believe they didn't include a flat head driver. I found a Boker plus nylon sheath that fits the tool and a six piece bit holder. But I'd love to be able to carry it with the pocket clip but without a flat head, it loses so much functionality. If my Gerber dime can have a flat head, the PowerPint should have one too. What the hell were the designers thinking? It's very close to being really great but having to carry it in a sheath in order to have a flat head kills it.

[@code6400]

Thats SOG Powerpint right?

[@clintwestwood3539]

Yeah, really curious on his take. I personally am on the fence between this and the skeletool. I know they are slightly different, but the squirt is getting discontinued and I don’t want Leatherman to replace it with a micra when I send it in like it already happened to me. Skeletool is the closest one that compares IMO.

[@MrGatya2]

@@clintwestwood3539 I would go with the skeletool. My colleague has the PowerLitre, which is the same construction as the powerpint and I have a skeletool. The skeletool feels substantially more sturdy. The implements on the powerlitre feel cheap. Eg. the scissor is really bad. You would also have to dig for the tools except the pliers. There is also a feature missing in the pint that the litre has and that is a latch on the handles, which would allow you to hold it closed while you are screwing and having a bit or bit adapter in the bit holder. In the litre's case you have this latch, so you wouldn't have to manually hold the tool closed while screwing and you don't have the potential to have the bit shoot out if you accidentally drop it. I would go (went) with the skeletool. You can also modd a suge file into the bitholder (courtesy of Dominic) if that is what you want.

[@jerryc5842]

Good review. How does this compare in size to the Leatherman Free T4? Love your reviews keep up the great work.

[@maxlvledc]

Half the size...literally..8.6oz vs 4.2oz
