Title: Bad locking mech
Review: I actually purchased this at a store but the product was so disappointing, I was compelled to write a review here. The locking mechanism is crap. Once the side tools (knife, scissor, can opener etc.) are locked, good luck trying to close it again. Theres two buttons your suppose to push down while putting pressure on the spine so the tools will fold back down but the force required to do that is beyond what your hands can handle. I actually had to use a second multi-tool to collapse this one. Just looking at the quality of this and you know its suspicious, the metal is dull and rough, theres lots of little dents and divits and rough patches. I was convinced that I bought a fake, but I purchased it from L.L Bean whom I know stand by quality and wouldn't be caught dead selling something as poor as this. Then I read that Gerber changed the manufacturing of this tool from Taiwan to China after 2008.... go figure. Never buying Gerber tools again.
