I was looking for a specific tool for my bike,it's fits in the frame and only the manufacturer make them to fit in the frame...its also 60 quid,so I bought a bag that fits under the saddle, and made my own ,get me out of a fix ,set up for about 20 quid..
Not fishing related I know ,but similar thought process...
Mind you some of those leatherman and gerber tools are mega money

My question is
If you can get a set of scissors on a Swiss Army knife the. Why not on this
probably would have sold more than it will
It's actually starting to bug me now that there is no scissors on it and I wasn't even going to buy one ...
lol

I just had a little look at the website as I've got nothing better to do. You can buy bits of clothing with one more cast written on them signed by Ali Hamidi. He also write his name one those funny put your rig in a massive box and strap it to you rod boxes. Better hurry though guys, they're limited edition.

It's like the invention of the wheel.
What can you say. At least it will be hard to lose and it will last a life time due to that high grade Chinese Stainless Steel 👍🏻

Its cringeworthy reading all the comments on facebook kissing hamidis ass about how wonderful it is.

They make the claim that plastic handles on baiting tools break and have to be thrown away.
I can't say that's ever been a problem for me.
The Gardner at £9.99 posted seems much better value but I won't be getting either.
My preference is to use individual tools and I only really use one baiting needle and one drill so most of the tools I wouldn't use. Also I have the habit of holding these tools in my mouth while fiddling about doing stuff, doing that with a multi tool would be difficult.
And lastly to use the drills on these multi tools you have to twist the boilie not the tool, something I'd rather not do.
Not for me but as already said the Gardner is a good price.

Until I dropped it in a deep margin I had been using the same Fox baiting needle that cost about £4 for 15 years. I replaced it with another one that's not snapped yet!
I have a small Matrix drill for hard baits/Tigers and use the ESP/Thinking Anglers splicing needles you used to get free with their Leadcore for anything delicate! Again all years old and never snapped!

Price aside (and the fact that it annoyingly has no scissors) I can also see this being a decent seller for Xmas; it actually looks well made - maybe they'll be in premium crackers in a few years if they cant shift the surplus?

Ouch!
That price would hurt, let alone the using the thing.
Not being funny, but most Multi-tools have a inherent problem in that the angle of tool of most items when in use is awkward. They are good at one thing, the rest don't feel comfortable when in use, but just do the job.
I have a Bahco multi-tool, the pliers, the knife and saw are OK, albeit the saw is slightly too short. The can opener, the pozi screwdriver and corkscrew are at the wrong angle to use easily.
The individual items on their own are easier to use. A bait drill, the baiting needle, a screwdriver, all work better when you can hold them correctly as the individual item.
Add to that, lose the multi-tool, you are boogered, everything is gone.
Lose a baiting needle, admittedly I have a spare, but I have only lost one thing I can easily replace or get round, and I could get round a lost baiting needle on the bank.
It is a lot cheaper to buy a baiting needle at £2.99, or a bait drill at £3.50 than £60.
