POWERACCESS ASSIST

Full disclosure, I’ve been using SOG multitools ever since I went through Special Forces Engineer school long ago. So I’m absolutely a fan. These are the toughest multitools I’ve ever personally used. I especially like the gear driven compound action pliers; almost like having a vice grip. This one improves on the original with the one hand opening blades, which is greatly appreciated. It’s certainly not a compact or lightweight tool, but it carries easily on a belt or in a cargo pocket. Not cheap but solid quality.

I have had multi-tools from a variety of companies, Leatherman, Gerber, and even older SOG units. This one is definitely my favorite. The power assist feature is absolutely worth it. I can one hand flip open the straight edge knife as well as the serrated. Keep in mind though, those two tools can only be flipped open with one hand, in your right hand. If you have the tool in your left hand, the two saws are flippable with power assist. The tools in the middle come out nice and easy, not overly tight like some others. Most of the middle tools are pretty standard affair, but the 1/4 drive socket head is the real star. Insanely handy. I LOVE the SOG pliers. They have the geared mechanism that makes it a force multiplier vs standard plies. Really genius. When the pliers are folded up, there is also a hex driver hole, and there is a little magnet in there that keeps the bit retained. Works great with the included bits, as well as other bits I have tried. The cutters seem great, and the crimper is a nice bonus, I have actually used those much more than I thought I would. All in all, I love this unit. It's big but still easily pocketable. Checks all the right boxes. Plus a lifetime warranty!

It's a high quality tool and smooth to open thanks to the compound gear system. The assist feature is just average, Leatherman multitools work better

This really is a good product. The SOG Poweraccess Assit MT is very sturdy and useful for many jobs. The metal finish is tough and durable. All the tools are well designed. The knife is VERY sharp. I really like the fact that when it is closed, it will hold any Apex hex bit in what turns out to be the back side of the pliers (and the hex receptical is magnetic). There is also a 1/4" socket drive tool. It comes with a set of Abex hex bits and a magnetic 1/4" square to 1/4" hex bit adapter. This makes this multi tool the most versatile I've ever used. If the included set doesn't have a bit you need, you can use any 1/4" hex bit you want. You're not limited to the included set. It is even possible to get replacement/additional tools and swap them out. It is a fiddly process, but if you have some mechanical aptitude and manual coordination, it shouldn't be too hard. However, in my case the first multi-tool I received was defective. Amazon's customer service was right on top of it and exchanged the product. I had the replacement the next day! The replacement was fine, hence the 5 stars. I really do like this multi-tool. I realize stuff happens in manufacturing and sometimes things slip through, but between SOG and Amazon, they made things right. Great Job Amazon Customer Service and SOG!!

when I tell you i was hesitant on spending this kind of money on a multi tool, I'm not joking. I'm so very glad my hopes were not dashed with the quality of this thing. I use this multi tool every day at work (Im a welder). it has been dropped, stepped on, run over, you name it... and this thing is still smooth as butter. opens and closes perfectly; nice little *snick* every time the locking mechanism engages the tool you use. I love that I can open and close this thing with one hand. it fits in my pocket, and is honestly the first thing I reach for if I don't have exactly what I need at hand. I would say this is a perfect tool for the price I paid, and it exceeds my expectations in every way. it is quite functional in every way I could ask of it. it still surprises me what this multi-tool can be used for.

SOG makes the best multitool. I lost mine so I ordered a new one. The day this one was delivered I found the old one. Now I have two!

there are some real pluses about this product the gear driven pliers alone may make you want to get this model SOG PA 3001, but you can get that on the deluxe model with the top end " assisted " tool which this one is. I have to say perhaps because of build quality you could get a tool from SOG that the "assist feature " which helps " supposedly " to deploy the latge knife and saw and other outside tools DOES IN FACT WORK the one i got on my order was stiff and you have to use this rounded point level to dispatch the specific tool mine was very labored and never really felt effective. It wore my thumb out to use and the unlock device was also stiff and your thumb can get torn up there. YOU DON'T WANT A PRODUCT THAT IS UNCOMFORTABLE to operate. THat being said i bought the same tool in black PA 3001, from a different source and that one was more workable. If you think this product is going to work like a switch blade release , forget about it. Still its a lovely design and i would not want to pay more than $ 90 to $95for it, Its a beautuful product as long as you get one that does not feel stiff to use

Love it

Pros : Love the smooth action of the pliers! (And the package for the price - value for money). The pliers, although with a fine tip, seems solid. Nice kit (considering the bits are included). Impressed with how sharp the blades are. Time will tell how well the 5Cr15MoV steel will hold up. The stonewash looks really good. General finishing is good (at least the unit I got). Cons : Stiff "assist" out of the box, really have to work it. I found loosening the fasteners ever so slightly helps. Would have preferred a file and scissors though... With all the drivers and the seat belt cutter it should be possible. Looking forward to future iterations. Bottom line, great value for money. (I also own a Victorinox Swiss Tool Spirit X and a Leatherman Super Tool 300)

I received a defekt multi tool The assist is not working, also the build quality is subpar, or maybe I'm not writing it right. I expected it to be top quality tool. Still hoping to get a reply from the seller. Thank you
