    Been carrying the original and now updated KS2 since I saw your original video. Has everything I need in a small form fitting factor (keep a small pair of pliers in the fifth pocket).

    The steel on the other parts of the tool have also been upgraded from the standard version. On the original, the steel on the scissors, drivers, etc. were 3cr13, according to their Amazon store. 🤓

    i have carried my ks2e fro 3 weeks since i got it. I clipped in mg pocket and it stay there firmly. The three tools on the opener side deploy and snap in easily without any snag like your in the video. On the other hand my most used tool is the scissor but after i cut a couple of 5mm plastic zip tie, i have some small nicks. Overall i like the tool as my edc.

    Hi there. You oompared it to the Gerber Lockdown. Wouldn’t it be closest to the Victorinox Huntsman? They both have blade, Scissors, saw, screwdriver, can opener, tweezers. I think the Roxon is better for urban while the huntsman is better for the woods in your pocket.

    I bought this after watching your other vid. There's one major gripe I had with the tool and that's that it felt like every tool on it just had a different way to lock it. One thing you had to lock it this way, the other tool had to lock it some other way, the other tool needed you to click this and that. So yeah, overall I wasn't a fan of that. They should have made the locking system the same throughout.

    This is kinda funny, the ruler is actually divided into tenths of an inch instead of eights, so you can't even measure nuts and bolts with it. Apparently the designer had never actually seen an inch ruler lol.. it doesn't start from the end so it's not really a depth guage either.. it's a cool tool tho, but the saw is an odd choice imo. I'd make it a flat blade and turn the can opener part into a hook cutter/package opener.

    Mr. Kincaid, I like the tool but the big scissors are overkill. On another issue. Do you know where I can get some silicone, rubber or G10 aftermarket scales for my GOAT multitool, if they exist? I want to look to see if that's something I'd be interested in. I want something that adds grip but won't ruin the stain finish. I like black GOAT you and Mr. Andrew Fett have

    I'm not sure about the scales. I know a lot of knife people make their own scales so maybe a local knife maker near you could fashion you some. Etsy has a lot of cool things sometimes the sellers will custom tailer for the buyer as well.

    I won’t do a multi tool unless it has locking tools. I’ve tried gerber arm bar at work and using the screw diver was infuriating and it was I front of a tenant which made it worse. It kept folding down. I switched to a leather t2 but the tools are fairly short and you don’t get many. Just ordered a ROXON and am very curious to see how it does. I actually work in the trades so I know the difference between a little gimmicky piece of shit and a real tool the gerbers are for weekend warriors imo. No such thing as perfect multi tool yet

    As I said under a previous video, I bought the ks2 elite based on your videos and I love it. But I have two issues: 1) the clip shouldn’t be on the same side as the the thumb stud. Every time I take it out of my pocket I have to rotate it to fire open the knife. 2) The thumb stud isn’t removable and its position makes sharpening difficult. I can sharpen the entire edge but it’s a pain to find the perfect angle to avoid that thumb stud. I do use the file on my finger nails and it works well. Also the bottle opener doesn’t snag on my unit. I can’t see carrying a SAK again unless they update their blade steel. It would be nice if Roxxon made the whole unit .5-1 cm longer so that they could fit a slightly longer blade in it.

    D2 on an inexpensive multi-tool or knife is not an upgrade. Everyone thinks they're getting the Old School premium D2 from back in the day. Without stopping to wonder how all of a sudden it seems that D2 became affordable enough to put on such cheap tools or knives. Well, it didn't. what's being used is a budget version of that Old School D2. One that is ridiculously hard and brittle, and very much prone to snapping in half if you treated like you would older premium D2. Sorry, but a premium blade steel does not all of a sudden, magically overnight become an inexpensive budget-friendly blade steel without some shenanigans taking place.
