Second pair, to replace my 10 yr old pair that somehow the plier jaws got jammed and put out of time. Filed a claim on the old ones and just got the replacement. They do stand behind their warranty! Many thanks and a SOG fan forever.

My first one was inherited from my father. I'd never heard of DOG by my brother was a lifer in the Army and couches for it. I used it roughly for years as I trained horses, rode the back trails of the Sierras, and ran a mobile RV repair business. It pulled rocks from horse hooves, repaired saddle rigging, fixed innumerable odds and ends, and then went to work with me fixing RVs until I left it in a customer's RV one late night. I was devastated when I realized what had happened, but I immediately ordered a replacement and had my name and number engraved. A few weeks later my customers who had been visiting from the other side of the country, mailed my dad's back to me. So then I had two. But as a final statement on how useful and nearly indestructible I have found these to be: my home burned to the ground just before Christmas. I lost everything. I have now ordered and received my 3rd Powerlock. I've never needed to order one due to a problem with the tool; I always need to order one when I don't have the tool. The thing is brilliant, handles abuse well, fits in the hand well, is adaptable, can be maintained and modified readily... It's just a great device.

I have been using this roll and this tool only for about 15 years now. Never get aught without it and everyone that uses it is inpressed!

I have had for 20 + years and love it work and out back camping other one repair because of miss use and repaired at no expense to me 2 leather sheaths with blade splitting a bullet and one black nylon sheath witch I get, material is going to wear out cause I carry everyday. Trying to get another sheath and not easy to find. I found on another site note related to Sog site. Another than that I love it.
