5Apart from the great styling of the crucial is its mid sized and pretty light weight. Its neither too small or to bulky heavy like many fully sized multi-tools so is very handy and pocketable. Each tool is big enough for full size duty.
The blade is easily one hand openable and locks very positively and is a great shape for the times to open packages which is most time used for or the odd cutting tasks. The belt clip is very snug to. It just has the right minimal tools you regularly need for those little odd job tasks. And the carabiner bottle opener regularly pops a beer. The one minor drawback I've found is the plier cutters only meet and not shear cut. Otherwise quality is really good with attention to detailed finish.Martin Wells

3Purchased a Gerber Crucial multi-tool (with engraving) as a gift - Delivery was very fast, engraving was excellent, packaging great, so the store itself gets 5 stars, but I've dropped 2 stars for the actual product review because the quality of the tool itself is not great, I was expecting better - it's made in China, the precision of the parts is not great, the tool doesn't feel as solid as my Leatherman Skeletool, it has plastic parts and flexes easily when pressure is applied. I doubt it would stand up to the same abuse as my Skeletool. The Crucial is a little better to carry in your pocket than the Skeletool because it's edges are better rounded and it's slightly smaller and lighter, but the Skeletool beats it on quality (from memory the Skeletool is more expensive, however).Anonymous

5Lovely multi tool, just the right size, and a perfect " keep for life" gift. the engraving was a lovely touch for my step son's 18th birthday present. A bit more useful than a tankard!! Good quality and with every tool on there that could be required. Anonymous

It's built to be compact and to fold up small, yet the Crucial is an entire toolbox of full size components in one hard-wearing stainless steel package. The handles of the Pliers are ergonomically curved for a better grip, the liner-locking knife blade is half serrated and half fine blade. It has a carabiner clip for quick attachment to a belt or bag. All this adds up to just five ounces - so won't weigh down your pocket.
PREPARED FOR ACTION
The Crucial steps right up to respond to the surprise hurdles life springs so routinely. It offers the partially serrated blade and the Phillips and flat drivers, all of which are liner locking for safe application, to tackle the business end of daily snags. Use the partially serrated blade to make short work of rope cutting or package opening, and tighten down loose screws around the house, the office, or out on a work site with the Phillips or flat head screwdrivers.
COMPACT BUT NOT DAINTY
In addition to the knife and screwdrivers, the Crucial contains a nicely long pair of needle nose pliers, V-cut wire cutters, a carabiner clip, and an ingenious pocket clip, making this tool the shrewdest of daily carries. The handles of the tool are ergonomically curved for a solid grip and increased torque. Beautifully incorporating its precise assortment of tools within the unobtrusive, 3.5-inch frame, the slim, lean Crucial lets you face trouble without fear.
