Gerber Freehand
Price: £79.50 Type: Premium Lock? Yes

Easily the biggest here, the newly released Freehand promised much. The pliers flicked out single-handedly, and can grip and cut, while the large scissors scythed through the webbing. But the saw blades weren’t so good, the screwing performance was lacklustre and having a full length ruler/driver seemed a waste of a tool. Not really up to the standard of premium rivals.
