Standard EDC Multi-tool Obstacle Course - Leatherman Charge TTi

I developed an obstacle course to test out my multi-tools on. In this gauntlet of tests, I show how the tool does on each one. I'll be using this to test out all my multi-tools from now on.
This video features the Leatherman Charge TTi which is a medium duty multi-tool and good for EDC.

    Much better than a review of just listing the tools and praising the looks. I want to see the tools used, not just see what's in it. Thank you very much for this. I was expecting some bottle caps and a couple of cans, but whatever. Nice vid. I hope to see more tools through your obstacle course.

    For those pins, which you tried to remove with pliers and screw driver, you can use the can opener tip to pry beneath. Tip of can opener can also be used as owl, tricky but can be used.

    You probably know by now, but the actual crimper is at the pivot point between the handles when the pliers are out. So you squeeze the wire between the handles

    Great review. You can buy one of those small glass screwdrivers and grind a pint on it so you can use it as an awl. I actually ground down one of their common screw drivers and made an awl out of it. I am planning to buy another MUT screwdriver kit and make a longer awl. It works great. I really enjoy my Charge XTi, I like the 2 screw drivers over the scissors. I carry a Victorinox Explorer, better scissors and a magnifying glass. At 65 I need the magnifying glass very often, LOL.......

    Its a cool idea but you can just mount them in the pliers. With the tool horisonattly and the saw blade vertical, you grab the sawblade at an agle so that the T-shank mount rests ontop your cable cutters. You can retain a sawblade with very little pressure. Its also possible to grab on to a t-shank with a folded leatherman by placing the T-shank where you would place the bit on a sog reactor.

    Could you please test out SOG PowerAssist and/or PowerLock multi-tool? I was going to buy one, until I saw a review where the guy said that "it's not gonna be comfortable to use the tools like screw-drivers or saw because the pliers can not be folded inside the handle and always stick out, unless you fold the whole tool what will drastically limit the rotation movement". Seems legit, but once again it's only talk, I'd love to see those tools in action!

    I have mine all the time, whether at work or just out and about. Actually work as an electrician, I used the stripper part once. Its useless shit. Rather just use the cutters like I do with my normal linesmen pliers. I don't usually use this. Obviously would rather just use my proper electrical tools, but I work industrial, I dont always carry all my tools depending what I am doing. So if I don't have the tool with me if its faster to use my leatherman I will. But being in those spots it sucked. I may be slightly biased, I don't use strippers anyways, just know how to strip with normal side cutters etc. Otherwise great test. Cool stuff, never thought of cutting zip ties with the strap cutter. great idea.

    Just got my Charge TTI today. It came with a total of 9 double interchangeable bits (total of 18n heads). I ordered the additional bits package. Kinda sucks that those that came with the tool are doubled-up on the additional bits kit. I suppose it's nice to have spares for the ones you potentially use more but would have preferred the bits kit to come with the bits extender rather than the doubles. But I'm happy.

    Also, you can have more leverage by pinching nails mid-point in the needle node and twist up, using the plier tip as anchor to your levering action, pulling up the handle. Another method is to pinch the nail at the base and twist is out. But you probably know this already.
