The Roxon KS2 Elite is one of the most popular EDC tools out there. And for good reason, it isn’t just another multi-function knife; it’s a compact, 13-in-1 powerhouse that aims to be your go-to gadget for everyday carry (EDC). We got our hands on one, and here’s a deep dive into what this “small toolbox” has to offer.
Read MoreJust saw Hvac Budget’s new video on the new Dakoyu/Warna multi-tool. This is more of a Free P4 clone rather than an Arc clone. It has a D2 steel blade which is very similar to the Arc blade which is MagnaCut. But the rest of the tools are pretty much Free P4. There’s the serrated blade, the saw, the scissors, Philips head, the flathead, can/bottle opener, file, and awl. There’s just no ruler but pretty much Free P4. This actually fills in a gap in the market since the Free P4 seems to have been discontinued.
But at $85, it seems to me a bit overpriced. The Leatherman Wave is $120 and the clones are usually at the $40 range or about a third. By interpolation, $85 would seem to be just right since the Arc is $250. But we have to remember that many, including myself, consider the Arc overpriced. So that puts this tool in the overpriced range as far as clone go. Maybe $50-60 would be a better price.

Leatherman is the undisputed king of multi-tools, and they were able to leverage that position to promote proprietary flat bits for their tools. Designed to maximize space, these have been the only choice for Leatherman users for years. But being a bit expensive and sometimes even hard to find, users have been yearning for alternatives. Enter Nextool, who, a couple of years ago, introduced their own tools that use the flat bit. Their AS2 Flat Extension Bit Kit, is a compelling option for owners of these tools and, of course, Leatherman tool owners.

NexTool, a brand becoming known for its rapid-fire innovation, has just tossed a new contender into the ring: the Mini Sailor S11 Pro. An iteration of the Mini Sailor line, this is a thoughtful evolution that addresses user feedback and raises the bar for what a compact tool can be.
