The SOG Sync II multi-tool snaps on your belt buckle


The Sync II from SOG is a multi-tool that you don’t carry your pocket or dangle from your belt because it’s been designed to replace the belt buckle on your favorite belt.

The SOG Sync II folds up into a rectangular form that is not unlike the Swiss+Tech Mega-Max that I told you about a few days ago. But the Sync II snaps into a detachable base that can replace the buckle on a belt or it can be clipped to the strap of a gear bag.

The multi-tool features 12 tools that include a knife, bolt/nut gripper, bottle opener, crimpers, 3 sided file, 3 screwdrivers, pliers, ruler, scissors, and a wire cutter.

It unfolds into a full sized multi-tool with handles that fit your hand.

The SOG Sync II has an MSRP of $80. You can read more about it at sogknives.com and you can order one from Amazon for less than $60.

Swiss+Tech Mega-Max folding multi-tool puts 15 tools in your palm

The Swiss+Tech Mega-Max is a multi-tool with an interesting design. It has a rectangular stainless steel frame that holds 15 tools that include screwdrivers, hex drivers, wrenches and more (see the full list after the break).

  1. LED Flashlight
  2. #2 Flat Screwdriver
  3. #2 Phillips Screwdriver
  4. 2mm Hex Driver
  5. 2.5mm Hex Driver
  6. 3mm Hex Driver
  7. 4mm Hex Driver
  8. 5mm Hex Driver
  9. 6mm Hex Driver
  10. 8mm Hex Driver
  11. T25 Star Driver
  12. English Wrench Set (1/8, 3/16, 5/16, 3/8, ¼)
  13. Metric Wrench Set (4mm, 5mm, 6mm, 7mm, 8mm, 9mm)
  14. Nail Puller
  15. Pry Bar

The fact that this multi-tool offers so many tools is nice, but I’m not convinced that the tools would be comfortable to use because the “handle” is wide and flat. If you have to use any real torque, I think the edges would dig into the palm of your hand. I’m just speculating though.

You can read more about the Mega-Max by visiting Swiss+Tech and you can order one from Amazon for $15.56.
