Like many multi-tools on the market, SOG's PowerLock pliers ($110) have a knife blade, screwdrivers, and a 1/4-inch hex-bit driver adapter. Unlike most other multi-tools, this product also has flat plates that fit over the handles to make squeezing more comfortable. In addition, it has sharp bypassing cutters that shear – scissors-style – rather than making a crushing cut, the way wire cutters do. All the implements lock open with a sturdy steel latch. 888-764-2378, www.sogknives.com.
