Coghlans Folding Multi-Tool Army Knife

Absolutely epic swiss army style tool, as the title says, Victorinox quality, in my experience. Got this for an Ultralight Camping trip and then kept carrying it long after. If you don't know if you'd like a "on-brand" Swiss Army or Leatherman style multitool, get one from Coghlans first. Read more

Ok so I paid $10 and I was expecting it to perform $10. I was definitely not expecting it to actually be very functional. It came sharp but not very sharp out of the box, cut through Paracord in one move. The tools have a bit of wobble and it felt cheap but the wobble doesn't affect performance. Most notable with the wood saw. I bought this solely for the wood saw, it works, it doesn't cut fast but it cuts. The rest of the tools don't feel durable but they all work. You don't pay $10 and expect victorinox performance, but it does at least perform. It has handled light take very well and a few tougher tasks, overall worth the price for a tool I do use and if I lose i wouldn't cry because it was $10.

I've owned this knife for 2 years now and use it all the time. Lost the toothpick. Cathy in customer service helped me get a replacement. I am a very satisfied customer. Read more

The one sent was a bright lime green, not red like the picture. Aside from the hideous color it was chipped. The scissors are pretty dull but other than that it is functional. Definitely would not have ordered had I known it was going to be the wrong color (let alone chipped). Read more

OK, it's not a "real" Swiss Army knife but it costs way less and will perform, very well, all the same functions. What it's got is functionality, what it lacks is elegance and higher class steel. I'll confess my SAKs are all from many years ago (20+) and today's SAK may be of inferior steel (compared to those of 20 years ago), someone else will have to address that point. I have several Coghlan's 5 function Army knives and I am pleased with them. I also have some Coghlan's 11-function and 9507 knives and I prefer the 5-function. IMHO the extra blades are nigh-useless. The 5-function main blade comes decently sharp but quite rough. A bit of work with a steel and a ceramic "crock-stick" will get the blade quite sharp, enough to slice paper (standard sharpness test) and most anything much else within reason. I suppose the blade is 2CR13 or 3CR13 steel, most any sport cutlery is today. It sharpens easy and dulls fairly fast but not discouragingly fast. It does sharpen up well, getting very sharp with minimal effort. The caplifter works adequately, if you will be using it frequently deepen the "hook" with a oval-cross-section needle file so it works first try all the way to the end, otherwise it's adequate for infrequent use. Take a file and sharpen the can opener, it needs it (most mutli-function knives need this sharpened). The phillips screwdriver and corkscrew look ok but I have not tested them. One of my 5-function Coghlan's is my everyday carry knife. I quite like it. UPDATE 2018-09-05 I'm still quite pleased with my "5-function" Coghlan's pseudo SAK. Worth noting that the scales (the red plastic parts) are probably glued in place; I've had no luck removing them. So any fix that would require scale removal is simply not doable. UPDATE 2022-03-20 I'm still pleased Read more

I bought this knife for the corkscrew because cruise ships charge $15 "un-corking" fee. I packed it in my luggage and had ZERO problems getting it on the ship. The other gadgets (scissors and knife) came in handy as well! Read more
