Find Best Price at Amazon"The Dime is a surprisingly well-executed mini multi-tool with a good choice of blades. So much so that they could work as tweezers in some applications (although the Dime actually comes with a small set of tweezers that slide into one of the tools outer scales). And let's be honest: any tool this small is only going to be useful for small, relatively delicate tasks; you can forget about working with any fastener larger than about 3/8". It also encourages use that applies pressure only in direct opposition to the way the blade closes (no stabbing or auguring with this blade shape); a sound engineering decision given that this is a non-locking blade. It absolutely excels at opening those infernal clear plastic clam-shell retail packages without damaging the contents, something all too easy to do if you're using a regular knife blade (do NOT ask me how I know that). The actual cutting edge is positioned at the end of the tool blade, is reverse swept and only about 5/16" long. So much so it easily earns it's keep as dedicated, single-purpose tool on the Gerber Dime."
"The squirt was a great little tool, but I broke the pliers by using them as a prybar. The Dime is a tiny bit longer due to the external bottle opener. The bottle opener was a selling point for the dime, as the squirt's bottle opener is a joke, in addition to being inconvenient to access, so I ended up carrying a separate bottle opener. That said, the files on the dime are a joke. The Dime has a round inner section, whereas the squirt's is just a different angle. The squirt's entire forejaws come together, whereas there's a flat spot on the tip of the dime that comes together, then the toothed section runs parallel to each other about 1mm apart."
"Like most of you guys, I wanted the Leatherman Squirt, but as I started using the Dime I realized that this was the perfect for me."
"I love Gerber's pliers too, they have a fine tip section at the very end for small-object work that most other tools don't have."

Find Best Price at Amazon"The knife is probably the best $ for product knife I've ever owned - I've had Leatherman, Gerber, Kershaw, and Benchmade open assist knives knives with several other fixed blade knives and these are my go-to knives."
"I have never owned a pocket knife in my life, but after binging LNM on Reddit for awhile, I thought it time I took my safety seriously."
"Nice knife."
"I'm not into serrated blades but it is very sharp on this knife as well as the blade. Thanks tac force for solid knife at a great price!"
"He has had a easy time opening and closing and using it for different needs."
"(The Bottle Opener): The bottle opener is a bonus to this knife I guess. Just look at the picture of the knife with the blade open and the motions and force you use to remove a bottle cap. Obviously It's safer with the blade forward but an odd way to open a bottle. I recommend just ignoring the bottle opener part of this knife. There are easier ways to open bottles if you absolutely must with out risking a knife wound. (Ease of Knife Opening and Closing): To open the knife you can just grab pull the blade out until it locks. You can also flick the switch with the tip of your pointer finger and the blade snaps open. To close the knife, look on the underside of the handle near the blade and press down on the metal lock with your thumb until you are able to begin closing the blade with your other hand. Right or Left Handed - This is mainly a right handed knife due to how you open it and where some of the grip is located on one side and not the other. The clip is removable though but it still feels like a right handed knife."
"The open area on the knife to grip to pull open the knife is sharp and needed to be ground To smooth the sharp edges."
"I wish it were a bit sharper and had a wider grip for my giant hands but it fits perfectly in the mini pocket of my jeans."

I see comments like, “Not the Best Collector's Knife,” “Handle is too Short,” “Cut my Leg.” I must encourage the cynics to realize a few things: 1.). The Bottom Line: If one is using this blade for its intended purpose, namely, self defense, I believe it meets all standards and could very well be a life saver."
"The HRT is a good knife for the money, and for the price, you can't go wrong."
"The finish on the blade is rough (powder coated, not titanium nitride or DLC) and I noticed a chip in the blood channel, which indicates to me that it's not the most durable."
"Took one heck of a beating out in the desert, its obvious it does not work well with daily tasks like trying to split wood or even open mail (Too Dangerous) and its also double edged so whittling is out of the question."
"This is a dagger with a symmetrical double edge blade."
"Not super big but a great size."
"the knife will take a good edge but wont hold it with much use but lets be honest this is a dagger its a defensive tool designed to stab people."
"Got it because the price was right and I just wanted a small knife."

Find Best Price at Amazon"I'm writing not only to praise this knife, but also the company that makes it - and the several other Kershaw folding knives I own and have given as gifts. I've recently changed my pattern of EDC, and wanted to put the pocket clip back on this knife. I emailed KAI to order the part, explaining that it wasn't broken or damaged or defective - I just misplaced it. I got a FAST response by email, telling me they were glad to send me a replacement clip free of charge."
"I've owned many knives and have come to realize I'm becoming less of a fan of serration for an EDC knife but that's a personal preference. I still carry this knife today and I love the fact that when I need a good blade I have this on my person."
"I decided to purchase this knife from Kershaw as a beginner, then I will move on to other brands and types."
"Since the blade on this knife is just a smidge over three inches, depending on where you live, you might need to check your local ordinances on legal carry."
"Many people have asked me what kind of knife to get and Im a knife collector and I always tell them to get this knife first."
"Sharp, strong and light pretty much says it all."
"Great all around knife. I would say "for the money it is great" ... but price aside, it is just a great knife."
"Without a doubt the absolute best everyday carry knife I have ever had up to this date."

"Previously purchased blade packs were overly greasy (oil is applied to prevent rust) but this one came applied with just the right amount."
"My utility knife sees constant daily use at work, these hold up (I go through about 1 blade a week) and a 50 pack will last you a long time."
"Stanley ALWAYS meets my expectations; this item no exception."
"Honestly, these work OK but they are not the heavy duty I am used to which are much thicker and more sturdy."
"I cant have enough spare razor blades laying around to refill the half dozen or so box cutters that always get dulled."
"Stanley blades are even better than their box cutters."
"As most blades of this type they are covered in an oil to keep from rusting in the packaging but is never an issue for me."

"I used this kit just the other day to quarter out an elk on a wilderness hunt here in New Mexico."
"For the money, this is a pretty good."
"I also have a few of their pocket knifes and I tell you these knifes are sharp."
"However based on the weight of all the knives together I will probably only carry the actual knives I will be using in the field."

Find Best Price at Amazon"I like it have 5 "pockets", you ca put no only the multitool, also you could (in my case): -2 sets of bit drivers, (Leatherman 931014 40-Bit Assortment for Leatherman Bit Drivers) (purchased separately). -1 small flashlight, (Fenix Compact LED Flashlight) (purchased separately). -1 small Sharpie pen, and (purchased separately). -1 SD card or coin (if you want too) (purchased separately). I am uploading some pictures for a better idea."
"Unfortunately, after several years of toting my New Wave around the elasticated side gusset on that leather pouch has come unstitched and I can't seem to replace the pouch with an identical one. Since I can't source a leather pouch with the "snout hole" in the bottom (for housing the pliers when unfolded) I'll likely be retrofitting my pouch with a snap fastener for peace of mind."
"I got this sheath for my Leatherman Surge, after the sheath that originally came with my Surge stretched out, and no longer held it securely. Not a bad theory, but in practice, over time the elastic gets stretched out to the point, that when you lift the Velcro flap, your tool falls out, unless you are very careful to be sure the sheath is exactly vertical."
"The leather case couldn't hold the Leatherman tool and the bits."
"This is a great sheath!"
"I don't think is gonna last long, I put my wave and feel big and loose, I read bad reviews about the velcro before buy it so I was ready to install a snap button, it took me few minutes, so much better now."

"A must have in the tool arsenal for any handyman."
"I was looking for a cheap and effective tool for scraping the dried on, greasy gunk from my stainless steel Weber grill grates and this perfectly fit the bill."
"It's just pointy enough to start separation and the bevel lets me slowly work the piece up without applying too much pressure and risk damaging any delicate parts."
"(sorry) This one looks well made, correctly sized (some are too big or small) and has a metal end on the handle which you can use to whack anything you suddenly find sticking out while you are painting. (6th way) If you ever paint anything, or work on windows and you don't have one of these, you are crazy."
"While this does open paint lids, the handle is plastic and it does not really stand up to much abuse."
"I discovered this kind of tool a few years ago when I was doing some Sheetrock work and it's really nice unfortunately the one that I purchased had a sticker on the side of it that really doesn't want to come off without leaving part of itself and that's not very smart."

"Anyone who knows anything about knives should be able to sharpen their own knives like they want, not complain about having to take it to a specialist. Stainless is very hard to achieve a good edge on without the proper honing instruments, such as ceramic. I live in New Mexico and have plenty of expierience in the matter. The oils in the leather will make it waterproof and keep most moisture out, plus, everytime you sheath it, you will put a fine coat of oil on the blade."
"This was a great price on one of the most iconic knives ever created."
"If you need a knife that won't let you down, get a Ka-bar and when you review it, remember there is no ONE KNIFE THAT DOES IT ALL, get yourself a smaller knife (yes even a good locking folder is good for fine work)."
