The Gerber Center Drive Plus displaces its non-Plus predecessor for this specialized award. The Plus takes all we liked about the original Center Drive and adds scissors and a larger blade, which we deem significant and worthy upgrades. The Center Drive screwdriver configuration has a long extension and a handle ready for more torque. This award-winning Gerber centers the bit along the handle's long axis, vastly improving ergonomics and making it feel like a true, single-purpose screwdriver. The 12 bits that come with this model fit inside the included leather sheath along with the tool.
If your multi-tool use includes a lot of driving screws, choose the Center Drive Plus. It is the best tool we know of for that purpose. Otherwise, it's more average as a general multi-tool. The rattly construction holds up well but doesn't instill high confidence. The pliers are more prone to pinching than more sophisticated options, and accessing tools other than the blade, pliers, and bit driver requires multiple steps.

 These are actually made right here in the united states and i'll put a link to them down in the description. These are actually high speed, steel cutters. Now these cutters fit perfectly in the gerber center drive and they are ridiculously tough, like i cut a couple nails with them, and i still, i can't even tell where i did that, and the other thing is: if you accidentally damage one of these edges, you can Actually, rotate it without the whole thing cracking on you, so we are going to install those while we're at it and then we're going to talk about the rest of it now. The problem is, i think, the funny part here is that the center drive, the the cutters here are the same price

 Now, if i hadn't taken them apart, i probably wouldn't realize that all right and there you go so it's not perfect. I was trying to do it quickly, obviously, and through a viewfinder, but i think you get the idea at the very least i feel like this is an improvement over the original, because i don't have anything that i'm really actually worried about, and this allows me to Eliminate the flat head potentially from being held here, so it gives me additional functionality. I don't need a bottle opener on an item that has multiple flat surfaces. I can open a bottle on just about damn near anything, and i would much rather have small, narrow flat heads when i need them, and the fact that i can now use a saw potentially whether it's metal saw or wood saw, i can find replacement blades for This this is what the upgraded center drive should at least look like now

 I would rather have what another implement. That is inside the mp600 bladeless, and that is this exchanger now would it do i do i really do wish they would upgrade to the t-shanks instead of this old style, but i've looked around and you can still buy different blades in this in this basic idea. So what this is, it's basically a replaceable saw holder and in this video right after we're done with this, i am going to convert this to what i wish it really was, and that is where we're going to start right now now, as you can see, i Went ahead and took the tools out of the mp600 believe this ahead of time, so we didn't make this video too long. I am using proprietary tools that i got from russia, the same guy who created the loki wrenches that we talked about with the leathermans, but you don't actually need this

Obviously we can't fix the problem with the bit holder, i'm still working on a solution for that, but in the meantime this is already significantly better. Now i need to make some minor adjustments as far as spacers are concerned, but, generally speaking, i think this would be a big improvement for most people

Upgrading the Gerber Centerdrive Multitool (the way it should be!)

 I now have a Leatherman wave with the ratchet with their bits. Not as quick as the Gerber but since they have no quality control on their products or staff I’ll live with the 3 seconds it takes me to set up the Leatherman to drive a screw.

 The one I got was defective, to tight. From where I got the center drive it would take a while to get another so I called Gerber and they said I would get a new one in 2 weeks. 6 weeks later I have 3 defective Center Drives and out $125. So if you do buy one, get it in a store so you can try it out and know you are on your own if the tool fails

If the screwdriver is your most used tool, which would you prefer?

SAK, Leatherman, or Gerber?

What to choose with screwdriver focus

Well packaged, out the box I was pleasantly amazed at the weight of it, it was a nice weight, so you can tell it's not a cheap product. Once I took it out and started to see the different tools I was very impressed. The knife has a nice length and solid feel to it, no hesitation using it as it locks nice and firm. The screwdriver is definitely nice and sturdy, you can put a good amount of pressure to it and it feels nice and safe

Nice and rugged

 So it came down to that and do I really wanna spend a whopping $130 on basically a bulky Phillips and Flathead screwdriver?

Bulky

 So there we go. The Gerber warranty is fantastic. I have a new issues in the past. Unlike a lot of American companies, they have people in the UK dealing with their with their warranty replacements, so it should all be handled very quickly if there's a problem, it's definitely always been handled quickly for me, even when it's been damaged, because I did something stupid With it, which has happened more often than I should probably I meant to so - let's just go straight into the tools

 Here they are replaceable much like weatherman's wire cutters are, but unlike lemons, wire cutters, they're also rotatable. The weatherman's here have one cutting surface. You damage it. You take take this piece away and put in a new one on the Gerber

 Instead of having to use your mostly. But because you had the bits from the multi-tool, you can do that so yeah. The bits are a big difference in the center drive and that element a hugely positive difference for me, and it also means that you can get different quality bits if you you'd have to spend 25 pound on a Leatherman bit say if you want a screw to Do actually specific job you want to just buy something, that's worth pence and use it, and if it breaks never mind, oh, so if you want to get good stuff, like we habits, you can do that as well. So, let's move on to where you keep your bits, which is the sheath

 You just put it in the set their most bits in the world, fit and work with the centre Drive, and it also means that if you are working somewhere for example - and you have your Center Drive on you and you have an impact driver - and you come Across a screw, that's maybe a hex screw. You might have the right bet in your Center Drive set and be able to swap it into your driver and do the screwing that you need to do with the proper tool with your impact driver. Instead of having to use your mostly. But because you had the bits from the multi-tool, you can do that so yeah

In addition to its weight, the surge suffers from several unfortunate design flaws. When the exterior blades are open, the thin, angular sheet metal on the handle digs into your hand painfully. It's not problem if you're wearing gloves, but on bare hands the ergonomics are honestly awful. This means that if you plan on using a knife a lot, you should carry a secondary folder

 On the downside, the Velcro has almost entirely given out after two years of use. It's gotten to the point that I don't really trust the sheath to retain the knife any longer. I feel like the snap on the leather sheath would be a better option.

 The Wave is noticeably lighter at 8.5oz, and even the new Super Tool 300 is lighter. This means that carrying the surge in you pocket is uncomfortably at best, so the belt sheath is your best option. Obviously ultra-light hikers will find the tool prohibitively heavy, but even I find too heavy to carry unless I'm car camping or simply toting it to the worksite

A comprehensive tool, but not perfect

  I had a Surge that i bought a few years ago that was stolen last year, this new one is a replacement, and I am very disapointed in the sheath.  My other one had a very nice leather sheath, this sheath is junk. I have had it 5 days, and it is already showing wear.  It hangs to high on my belt and is hard to pull the replace the tool

  Much to large for an already large tool.  This is the 8th multi-tool that I have owned, and by far has the worse sheath.

Great tool, sheath is Junk

  It's just that for hiking or backpacking I believe it is too big and heavy.  The Surge weighs 12-1/2 ounces.  By comparison, the Wave weighs 8-1/2 ounces.  In the hand the Surge is much heavier and beefier than the Wave

  For the trade-off of those 4 ounces you get an awl and blade exchanger and you give up the small eye-glass screwdriver that is on the Wave.  The blade exchanger is nice, you can use any t-shank blade that you can get at any hardware store and that gives you the ability to carry a relatively large saw blade for emergencies.  If that is important to you and it saves you from carrying a larger saw then it may be worth it to you.  For myself, in my daily use, I found the Surge to be too heavy so I went with the Wave

Not recommended for hiking/backpacking

5" handles and longer knives. This is truly a toolbox on your hip, and has the largest selection of tools that Leatherman offers (21). I've carried the Surge for 2+ years after receiving it as a Christmas gift, and I've used it on camping trips, on the work site doing environmental restoration, and also frequently in the theater doing set construction. The tool has held up admirably over the years, without too much wear and tear that would reduce its usability

Powerful and Comprehensive, Not Perfect

Is the chain link fence made of pipe cleaners? It most likely won't cut it. However, harbor freight sells tiny bolt cutters for cheap. You're probably better off with a specific tool than a multitool in this instance, but if you really wanted to get it done with a multitool you'd need a full sized one. Good candidates include Gerber mp600 or Leatherman Surge

<div class="md"><p>no, I have no ill intentions...</p>
</div>

Will Gerber Dime wire cutters cut through a chain link fence?

 This is probably going to displace my Leatherman Surge. While I like the one hand opening blades on the Surge, the minor flaws and quality issues are a bit annoying. The Swisstool appears to be better quality for less money.

Recently picked up a Swisstool. The fit and finish is incredible.

 The second black Surge arrived and it was obviously in new condition. Much better! The handles opened perfectly. Another step up! Unfortunately, the pliers would not engage. I was on the verge of sending this one back and ordering the stainless steel instead

 The handle would not completely open and the knife blade had a broken tip. Very disappointed! However, Amazon does make it very easy to return and I did so.

Hoppes solvent and it works like a charm!
