Multitools tested: premium
A multitool is the ultimate foldaway gadget for your glovebox. We put 14 top-sellers to the test to find our ace of blades
Compact companion in the garage or emergency toolkit in your glovebox – nothing is more practical and flexible than a handy multitool.
We tested 14, all of which featured pliers and varying numbers of blades, screwdrivers and other fittings. We divided them into premium and budget sectors at the £60 mark, which equates roughly to medium and large sizes.
Most of the tools came with a storage pouch, either made from tough fabric or leather – but which is the one you should go for?
Verdict
Victorinox combined quality and performance with a great price to take the top spot. Second place was almost too close to call between the Surge and Legend – you’d have no complaints about either.
