Review on Multitool pliers LEATHERMAN Charge Plus (832516) black by Edyta Edzia ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I like the product very much, fully consistent with my expectations.

A couple more points that are neither a plus nor a minus. ● The case from this set (832516) is also convenient because it immediately has a pocket for a bit die. Otherwise, when buying any die, the cover is automatically changed; ● I was very worried that a replica might come, good or bad, but a replica. Therefore, if there is any doubt, it is better to overpay a bit and take it from the office. representative, or at least where there is a guarantee stub. Whether or not there are a lot of holivars on the net, however, firstly, with a guarantee of 99 chances they will not slip you a "leftist", + I still adhere to the version that without a guarantee even in "Omega-tool" you can be sent by the forest, about which spoken in more legal language on their website. Extract from there: "warranty . and does not apply to products purchased in non-certified stores" Infa is relevant for January 22. ● Another funny moment. In the first minutes of unpacking, because of this, I thought that they put a replica. In 90% of the reviews on the dies in the round, there is a broken line in the form of a multitool; it seems that after 1919 this line turned into the letter "L" in the form of the same tool. This is not a fake, these are old and new tools :) ● Yes, bits lose their presentation after about 5 seconds of operation, but these are bits!😁 I have been going to buy this multitool for 5 years, and therefore I decided for myself that when buying any tool, as I wrote above - from Ashanovsky to the desired one - it is not very true to "ask" him to solve problems for which there is a special, separate tool. It is foolish to argue that the bits of this tool are better than Wera screwdrivers. 99.9% full-fledged pliers will do a better job than a tool. However, here it is worth remembering the very history of the appearance of the tool - Tim drove a car around Europe and just so that _not_ to carry a suitcase of tools with him, which he constantly could not find anywhere on the way and decided to come up with something that would help where I don't have this box. It seems that it worked out :) Therefore, if you understand why you personally need a multitool - I recommend it!

Pros
  • ● Of course, you can watch 1000 videos on Youtube, but these hours of video content will not be able to convey all the ergonomics of the multitool. Here you take it in your hands, and you feel the buzz. As they say - "Thing!"; ● There are no backlashes, everything passes and closes with some millimeter gaps; ● Knife, its shape and sharpness out of the box. Really convenient to use. The one-handed opening and liner-lock still add to the convenience immensely; ● Serrator. I started my history of acquaintance with Hong Kong about 12 years ago. There were also Auchan multi-tools for 200r, and the "Expedition" that had already sunk into oblivion, and the top from Ganzo 302b, but only after trying this blade on Leatherman did I understand how the serreytor should work. It cuts fabrics, ropes in such a way that it seems that I don’t make any effort at all. Like a surgical scalpel; ● The saw and the needle file have not come in handy for a month of use, however, again, it is enough to google the areas of their application and understand that here is "everything👌"; ● Pliers. Comfortable and not rough. Not massive. ∠ The disclosure is impressive! They end with thin edges, and since there is no spring, something taken remains fixed "in the paws". Because they are not spring-loaded, this has its drawbacks, a matter of taste and the task at hand. Removable wire cutters, again, "a plus in karma"; ● Bits. They are convenient at least in that there is no weak link - an adapter, losing which the bits usually become a vestige. And then a bit⇛tool and nothing more; ● Fixing all open tools. 4 main ones - liner-lock, the rest with a blocking plate; ● World Warranty 25 years (more on that later) Below are the advantages of this particular tool (832516): ● Cool set that you get out of the box: A nylon case with a pocket for one bit die, a clip, a ring (it is larger than the main one, integrated, so I can’t say that this is a duplication. This ring is for a different rope size) + a die with bits. Bits - IMHO, normal, in terms of not the most useless, but look closely. Total 6 bits in the die, one in the tool, 7 * 2 = 14 screwdrivers in the kit (+ 2 mini watch screwdrivers).
Cons
  • Is it even possible to attribute this to such a big word as "flaw" - everyone decides for himself, but still subjectively: ● Price, damn it. The dollar exchange rate, of course, decides😩; ● Black dies, the ones that are "6061-T6 Anodized Aluminum Alloy." - He's scratching. Not much, but after a month of use, a couple of 'strokes' have already appeared. I repeat, this, of course, is a working tool, and if you are not a shelf speaker, you are unlikely to be able to keep the presentation out of the box. But it's still not pleasant. It’s like someone struck your beloved new car with a key a little on the door😀 ; ● One of the few tools, for disassembling which you need to buy not a rare TORX bit with a hole, but a key . I don't know its official name, I'll attach it in the photo; ● Personally, my needle file strikes a little behind the wall of the body when closing, but I saw this in the reviews, it's not very critical.
