About the Suspension Multi-Plier Multitool
This engineering masterpiece was inspired by the bridges of Portland, Oregon, with all the down-and-dirty performance characteristics users expect and require. This is a classic workhorse with spring-loaded pliers, the patented Saf.T.Plus component locking system, a ballistic nylon sheath, and the very same structural integrity that goes into every Gerber tool. More than just a sleek-looking son-of-gun, this tool has an open-frame configuration that's a real break though where the industry is concerned. But just because it's got pretty lines, there's no reason you can't use it in some ugly situations. Multitool Capabilities:
- Needlenose pliers
- Wire cutter
- Fine edge knife
- Serrated edge knife
- Saw
- Scissors
- Crosspoint screwdriver
- Small and medium flat blade screwdrivers
- Can opener
- Bottle opener
- Lanyard hole
Key Technical Specs:
- Length open: 6 inches
- Length closed: 3.5 inches
- Handle material: stainless steel
- Sheath material: ballistic nylon
Warranty:
Gerber Legendary Blades guarantees this product with a limited lifetime warranty. What's in the box:
Gerber Suspension Multi-Plier and nylon sheath. Gerber's History of Ingenuity
Savvy. Moxie. Craftsmanship. Attention to detail. These are just a few of the company traits that contributed to Gerber's emergence as a world leader in outdoor gear. Joseph Gerber started Portland, Oregon's Gerber Advertising back in 1910, and one Christmas, he hired a local knife-maker to craft 25 sets of kitchen cutlery as client gifts. The knives were so popular, Mr. Gerber ultimately left his agency to launch Gerber Legendary Blades in 1939. It makes sense, really. An idea man gets the idea of a lifetime and turns it into a major outdoor brand -- one that commands respect among knife-lovers and knife-makers alike. And now that same high regard is spreading in new directions, in the form of many outstanding products such as tools, personal L.E.D. lighting, and backpack hydration.

Summary: Great gift... 2008-10-28
Comment: I bought the Gerber Suspension Multi-tool as groomsmen gifts, because I wanted to find something that was actaully practical for my groomsmen. No more cheesy flasks or beermugs that will never get used.
The Gerber is a great alternative to the more widely known multi-tools such as Leatherman.
I liked them so much I actaully bought myself one. The pliers have proven to be very strong, yet its not overly heavy feeling in my pocket. The lock out buttons for the tools are a little stiff but I imagine they will wear in over time. Access the tools in the center of the handle can be a little difficult, but not to the point that I don't use them.
I'd reccomend the Gerber too anyone who doesn't want to pay the higher price tag for the other brands.

Summary: Broken within two weeks. 2008-10-23
Comment: I was using the pliers to hold some wire while doing some fencing and one half of the plier's jaw broke completely off right at the hinge. Absolutely no excuse for this as I used to do the same task with my old Leatherman without any problem.
Also, it is very hard to get the various tools opened.

Summary: Weak, won't stand up to heavy use. Don't buy. 2008-09-24
Comment: This tool broke under use when I tried to use it as part of a home project. I was using the pliers to straighten out a bent piece of metal, something that I've done tons of times with regular pliers. I figured that I could use the Gerber tool the same way.
I was wrong. When I encountered a particular stubborn piece of metal, and it wouldn't give, I had to crank extra hard. Instead of the piece I was working on bending, the Gerber tool broke! One of the small metal retaining pieces that prevents the plier handles from collapsing bent under the pressure of my hand.
Folks, I'm not that strong. I wasn't applying some superhuman amount of strength to the tool. Nevertheless, it still broke under the strain of me gripping it extra hard. I don't recommend anybody getting this tool if you're going to use it for serious work, or going to depend on it for an emergency.
