The el-cheapo stainless finish - $150 USD
The el-cheapo black - $200 USD
The somewhat more expensive stainless with a watch - $500 USD
And the top-of-the-line black with a watch - $600 USD

They're pretty expensive even here up north..

Give it a week and you'll be able to buy one for $25 from China, though it'll probably be made from candle wax and it'll probably say Rolex.

I've had a Chinese copy in my bike tool kit for years, used it on my boat for 15 years before that. Cheap and cheerful and the stainless finish is actually stainless.

These guys make good tools too
Gerber Tools - Gerber Knives and Multitools

I don't think I'll be buying a toolkit for my wrist anytime soon..............
Looks a bit geeky to be honest, and the price................well.............uh uh.
Leatherman do make great tools though.

I can't remember the last time I was walking in the wilderness and had some desperate lost soul from a Cast Away movie struggle up to me and ask for a 10mm box wrench.

But I'm sure it happens.

Otherwise, there would be no point inventing this would there?

I carry a Gerber multitool on me everyday, you never know when you might need it, and it hasn't let me down yet, after 10 years
