It's finally here and Ali Hamidi is charging £60 for the thing. Is it just me or is the guy being greedy and charging ridiculous prices already? I really liked the idea of the Tool but for 60 notes he can jog on. I feel like he is pricing out the average angler who just can't afford to pay nearly a day's wages on a a rig multi tool. Its a shame because I liked the idea of it when he first announced it and was looking forward to potentially having one as I thought it would be a third of that price but he has definitely priced me out of buying one...

I am not sure what I was expecting, I kinda knew the price was going to be high, with all the bullsh1t hype, but maybe £40... not £60.

Ali isn't daft, he knows it's ideal for a Christmas gift and will sell plenty that way.

It is expensive though, a quality cycling multi tool is around £30.

It's not for me, but it looks a nice bit of kit and packaging is smart. If people are willing to pay £60+ for set of Korda distance sticks doubt he'll have much problem shifting these.

Is it 6 times better than the similar product from Wychwood? I'd assume not

I dont think i would use one even if it was free. It wont fit in your tackle box, will weigh quite a bit and you will be constantly opening each bit to find the one you actually want.
