Customer Reviews for SOG - Powerlock Satin Scissors with Nylon Sheath

I'm keeping the multi-tool for the knife, the saw, and the pliers. The scissors absolutely do not cut at 50% of the distance from the pivot to the tip, and I needed this feature to trim skin off a lesion I sustained. I ended up going to the doctor to have it cleaned up. Really too bad. The scissors won't cut a plastic wrapper unless you are at the root or close to it. This was the situation when I first wanted to use scissors. Very disappointed. I'm going to try carrying a Suisse Army knife all the time as I did when I was a young sailor, and for the most part, I'll leave the pliers at home.
I had a problem with the metal file about 10 years ago - it had no more cutting edge than a fingernail file. I hoped things had improved at SOG since then. But I need the compound leverage pliers, so I bought them in a version that might possibly serve me for other tasks. I also noticed that the wire cutter on the pliers had a dull spot on the edge. C'est la vie.

An Old Friend

I had an Army issued Powerlock a number of years ago and unfortunately lost it. I've missed it ever since. My good fortune had a friend purchase a new one for me for Christmas. It was like being reunited with an old friend! These tools are solid and rock solid dependable. I can't recommend this tool highly enough!

I have yet to find the perfect multi tool - this comes close. The option to swap tools helps get it even closer, even though I have never had to because the number and variety is ideal for my needs. This is my second powerlock. The first has been put through ten+ years of vigorous use and is still functional. It's only retired because of the black Friday sale. While I appreciate the deal, I would have gladly paid full price because it is worth the money when compared to other companies' products/prices. The one handed open/close and mechanical advantage of the gears puts SOG above other brands and I recommend them to all of my coworkers who are looking for, or already have, a multi tool.

Needed another multi tool for a vehicle. I have several brands with similar feature/functions. This is a good quality basic unit.

This is a wonderful tool. It took a few days before I could get to use it. I discovered a fence problem in my pasture. The "Power lock..." was the only tool that I happened to be carrying. I fixed the fence and used a few tools found on this knife. It's a great tool. My 79 yr.old fingers had some difficulty accessing tools and it is the heaviest multi tool I have ever carried. I wouldn't want to part with it. My fingers will learn what to do and I will continue to "pump iron," to adapt to the weight. I highly recommend this multi tool.

Been a multi-tool guy since 1990. Sog Powerlock is by far the most durable and funtionabable tool I ever had. Was working plumber and HVAC for 35 years, and used everyday, many times a day, and have no complaints. You will wish you would have got one a long time ago

Made it 25 years!

I got this right before I started my training at Camp MacKall 25 years ago. It was a big purchase then, I didn’t have a lot of extra cash. It made it through the military, then as a paramedic, then as a bartender (you’d be surprised how often it came in handy). Around our rural homestead (10+ years) I carry it everyday, and it’s a rare day I don’t use it. Finally, while trying to bend a latch working on the fencing, one side of the pliers snapped off. I was crushed, it’d been my companion for a long time. I’m back on the site now ordering another one.
