Tools and Hardware Reviews of Gerber 22-41517 Freehand One-hand Opening Multi-Plier and SheathCustomer Review: A Lot Bigger than you think
I bought my first multi-plier 16 years ago (I still have it). I have had a lot of different brands and styles over the years and couldn't pass up a new design from Gerber. Overall this is a wonderful tool, it has the most popular tools; 2 knife blades, 4 screwdrivers, a scissors, a wire cutter (that even cuts piano wire) and a ruler. Comes with a nylon case. The tools are on the outside of the tool which is a disadvantage if you use the pliers alot.

Job-Specific Tools for Better Results
At the center of the Freehand is a pair of Gerber's patented one-handed opening pliers. With the simple flick of your wrist, these pliers snap into place, ready for action. And that's just the beginning. After the pliers snaps into place stops are deployed so you cannot pinch your hand during use. The safety plus serves two purposes. Locking the tools but by sliding the other direction the smaller tools push up so you can easily pull them out without breaking your finger nails. Unique to all Gerber Multi-Tools are stainless steel shims between all components. This feature allows the user to deploy a single tool without all tools coming out.
Unlike traditional Multi-Tools which often leave you trying to make-do with the wrong tool for a job, the Freehand offers a wide range of 11 easy-to-access outboard tools. Instead of making you pick either a straight blade with a fine edge or a serrated blade that can handle tough rope work, the Freehand gives you both.
It also offers V-cut wire cutters, scissors, a ruler for keeping track of precision work, and both Philips and flathead screwdrivers--so you'll never be without the right tool to get the job done.
Safe, User-Friendly Design
If you've ever had a folding knife close on your hand in the middle of making a tough cut, you'll have a special appreciation for Gerber's Saf.T.Plus system, which locks components securely in place for worry-free use. This proprietary system also helps you keep your hand steady while you're driving screws or trimming wires.
The Freehand Multi-Plier comes with a nylon ballistic-cloth sheath that will protect it from the elements when it's not in use.
If you're looking for even more versatility, Gerber offers an add-on tool kit that contains an adapter, three different sizes of flathead bits, cross point bits, and hex head bits for increased functionality. Also available are several a convenient sharpening systems that can help you keep the blades on your multi-tool in top condition without the hassle of using a whetstone or a round file, including the DF6 Compact Sharpener and the DF8 Sharpener, which uses unique diamond fingers to acheive a perfect 30 degree angle every time you sharpen a blade (tool kit and sharpeners not included).
