Xiaomi multitools: Xiaomi Nextool 16 in 1 [Xiaomi 13 in 1 see post #135 <$10, pics added]

It comes with a velvet storage pouch. I guess they intended it for pocket carry by the pocket clip.
The first 3rd of the handle of the scissors is not rounded so that might be uncomfortable for extended use. The rest of the multi-tool is nicely chamfered.

What has been seen cannot be unseen :slight_smile:

Mine was shipped via fedex from New Jersey. They supposedly have a US warehouse option but I chose and paid for china free shipping with the coupon. I guess they sent from the US by mistake?

The joys of the UK, batteries, power banks knives. Even though this one is non locking.

it doesn’t seem to be on aliexpress…

(search didn;t find anything)

Very unlucky, why on earth have they confiscated it? a multi-tool is not a weapon. I got mine to the UK no problem and its great for DIY and jobs around the house.
Sorry to hear this.

No idea. Got a Leatherman Wave and a Gerber Compact. They were OK.

Here you are.

Maybe someone felt in love with it.

Got the multitool in (my first multitool ever). It is heavy, much heavier than a SAK.

I understood that the knife in this tool had no lock, but mine has one. Both the saw and the blade have a liner lock.

Huh, weird. But the screwdrivers and other small tools still have no lock?

Just got mine today. The knife and saw have liner locks. The small tools have no locks. Overall impression is very positive. It is not as good as Swiss made Victorinox or US made Lethermans or SOGs, but way better than, say, SOGs made in China. For its price it’s superb.

The locking blades is good news!

I might have to pick one of these up, maybe if the price drops a little.

comparing it with ganzo g302-h, which one seems better to you?

Ganzo G302-h

Automatic translation, sorry …

I just got mine, for some reason mine were shipped via Fedex from NJ. They came in two days. I am super happy!!

So far my impressions are that the tool is really good. Specially for the price. I am comparing it to my Leatherman Wave and the pliers on the Nextool seems to be better (they have springs) and the scissors are WAY better. I think I would highly recommend then at $25 with the freeme deal.

Interesting, I was about to order another one to gift to a friend, and now they are charging $10 for expedited shipping, no free shipping. I guess I bought mine just before they changed the shipping service and thats why they sent mine so fast? Anyways, I will wait for the price to come down to $25 with free shipping again.

Time will tell if this goodlooking tool will be as functional as it looks :slight_smile:

What do you think of the Skeletool?

The Skeletool is even worse for me!
Not only it’s not symmetrical but you also got the screwdriver bit sticking out in the lower part of the handle!

A little bit off OP, but my Leatherman Wave ‘bites’ the skin of my palm if I use the pliers on closing.

I am left-handed. Does it happen to right-handers too?
