Version 2 is as good as the original...

I bought the original Switch Plier for the cool factor and then learned to love its function. Bought the current version after my first one got stolen and like is just as much. I find it to be a light- to medium-duty tool. Within its limits, it works great. And it's still cool.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Fantastic piece, one catch though...

I bought this 2 weeks ago, so I'm still breaking it in. I can't get over the flip out feature for the plyers. It's fast, sounds good, design looks great. Every tool on this piece is great and for the price along with life time warranty sweetins the deal. Two quams though, the push button is usually triggered when I'm sitting and depends where it is situated on me, it can open. This could probably be fixed with a case, which did not come with the original package. The other issue being that certain tools such as flat screen driver or Philips screw driver can't fit past the closed needle nose pliers in it's closed position. Requires the pliers to be opened to put the other tools away. The tool is rated as heavy grade, but I find it's best for light jobs with it's quick deployment. I would recommend it.

Overall a great tool. Easy to use. It's a great tool to operate with one hand when the other one is busy. Pull it out of your pocket, press the botton, then bam you got some pliars in your hand.

Broken again

I received the first one about 9 months ago and one of the claws sheared off and was launched by the spring assembly while using them. SOG replaced them and about two months into that the spring assembly broke on that one. I have not requested a replacement for the item this time as I do not believe it is the right tool for me.

Sub-Par

I bought this a month ago and at first was pleased with it. However if you try to put any decent amount of force on the pliers the spring mechanism trips and renders this practically useless. SOG sent a replacement and fresh out of the box the new one does the same thing.

Not tested well

I bought this tool about 3 days ago. VERY first time I used it the hinge broke. Was very surprised by this because I own a few power locks and have NEVER had an issue with anything on them. I didn't expect it to perform like a powerlock, but with the amount of pressure I put on it, I think my 5 year old daughter could have broke it. Although this is a very nice looking and feeling tool, the pliers are not what I expected from SOG. I still love my power locks but this may shy me away from new products. It appears to me that this issue is something that should have absolutely been found and fixed during testing.

Great style, poor handle

Just bought this today. Box was opened and knife was used. The handle was broken. That is not SOG's fault. Yet with the broken handle I noticed that the handle has a very week hinge. For most folks who do not have a strong grip this is fine. If you do have a strong grip you could easily brake the hinge on this great looking tool. :-( disappointing!

Please return to your place of purchase. That should not happen.
