CRKT Zilla-Tool
Whoa,.. really bad

I own several crkt knives and like them. If my first experience was with the Zilla there is no way I'd have bought more. It is a nice looking and designed tool with a good sized blade but suffers severely in execution=> "Made in China". Blade doesn't lock well. Wire cutters failed to cut a small slinky. Pliers' spring is weak and spongy. I'm actually not sure I'd want to use the blade for fear of a "snap" followed with much cussing by me.
Bought one for myself and one for an Xmas present for a friend. They'll both go back. I'd be embarrassed to give it as a gift.
Get a Leatherman. Both the big old style and the newer Juice are better although less blade oriented.
