Stanley 12 Tools in 1
Best price: £9.99
It may be the cheapest on test, but the skeleton-style open handles mean this multitool doesn’t look it. Pick it up and you can feel where corners have been cut, though.
There’s play in the pliers and it struggled to complete our wire tests, plus there are sharp edges which restrict how much pressure can be applied. The knife fared better as it’s sharp, but shorter than most here and the handles were better suited to screwdriving.
