Summary: A handy little tool for emergencies
Comment: I like to do small thing at home: an extension cord for my phone, moving the cable, tv and set top box, hanging pictures on the wall, adding a computer to the network without a hanging wire, those kind of stuff. And I wanted a small tool to do that without carrying a full tool box.

And I saw this tool, and, based on the price, I said, "What the hell, let's give it a try." A warning for those guys living outside the USA: customs duties and taxes are quite expensive, I ended up paying 55% of its value because this tool is made in China, and subject to compensatory quota.

The tool is quite light and handy, but not perfect. The hammer is strong enough to put a nail in a brick wall, and the nail claw can remove small nails, but don't expect them to be able to remove a concrete nail. The pliers can remove small nuts and bolts, but they can't be opened that much and the inside space isn't that great. I wasn't able to cut a 12-gauge wire, by example, because I couldn't open the wire cutter enough; little problems with 14-gauge wire if the insulation was big enough; and no problems for telephone wiring. The knife is sharp but maybe a little short, the serrated blade doubles as a sharpener and a flat screwdriver, the can and bottle opener has two wire strippers.

However, there are two tools that are almost useless. There is a small flat screwdriver and a small Phillips screwdriver, located around the middle part of the tool, that are simply too short: the flat one is blocked in it's reach by the hammerhead, the Phillips one is blocked by the pliers' handle. They would be useful if they were either longer or located at the bottom of the tool.

So it's not a perfect tool, but it may be useful when you don't have a toolbox in hand. Certainly it had been useful for me, but far from perfect.
