Comments about Columbia River Guppie Multi-Tool:

I use my Guppie everyday. It is a great tool. The only cons are it's to heavy and the wrench keeps sliding opening in my pocket. The pros are it come with a very small but VERY POWERFUL LED light and the sharp 2inch knife blade work great. I am glad I got one.

Comments about Columbia River Guppie Multi-Tool:

I like the crescent wrench option as I am often repairing gear during a season. Traditional needlenose pliers don't work great on the many hex nuts in stoves, packs, vans, trailers, kayaks, etc. I do miss the needlenose pliers, though, so this won't be my only tool. It has a nice weight to it for getting work done, but it may make it too weighty for backpackers / ultralight campers.

Comments about Columbia River Guppie Multi-Tool:

I bought this product a year ago, and when I took it out of the packaging, I immediately knew that it was not something I would carry. While the Guppy does have many tools, none of them are quite nearly as useful as a stand alone version of that tool. For instance, the wrench is very loose, the bottle opener breaks bottles, the carabiner opens less than three quarters of an inch, and the bit holder/LED falls off easily. I took a small piece of plastic cord to attach the bit holder to the carabiner, to keep from losing it. At some point a few months ago, I decided to take the multitool apart to clean the grime and rust(!) out of the inside, but then found that it is nearly impossible to get the spring back into the blade. My blade is now held shut with a piece of 16 gauge wire. The blade, while sharp out of the box, dulled quickly with normal use. The flimsy belt clip bent outward very easily, and it affixed with three small torx screws, making it too much of a hassle to fix.My conclusion, this is a bulky, oddly shaped version of a [$] leatherman rip off I bought at a dollar store. I give it a 2/5 though, because it has gotten me out of more jams than I care to admit, and I love the CRKT knife I bought prior to this purchase.

Comments about Columbia River Guppie Multi-Tool:

i thought this tool would be nice to have- the wrench seemed like a good idea. the different bits seemed great too. when i pulled it out of the packaging, though, i noticed the wrench did not stay tight, the bits fit loosely and the light/ bit holder kept falling off. this is a waste of money, i think i will stick with the gerber suspension.

Comments about Columbia River Guppie Multi-Tool:

I bought this multitool because of the types of use I would be putting it through. I snowboard and mountain bike, as well as going camping quite a bit. When I opened the package, I was immediately disappointed with the quality. Everything is loose... not just the detachable bits and flashlight, but everything- the blade, the carabiner, and the wrench is a joke. It does not hold closed at all. I still gave it a try, but soon lost the bit set and flashlight and slightly warped the blade. My gerber multitool went back in my pocket soon after.
