Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

A look at the 6 in 1 Camping tool as it comes out of the box. Update: Years later. I've purchased dozens of these now and given them away to friends. I find the best use for them is for people who have to eat but not in the standard 9-5 settings. My friends are called "flow-bo's", they're circus type performers who often have to scarf down a meal backstage. Many are vegans who prepare their own meals. I keep one with me at all times either in the glove box or a bag so that i don't have to take plastic utensils when I take out lunch. Yes, there are more minimalist ways to do this, including a little spoon you can hook in with your keys, but I like having all that i need to have a civilized meal, even if I have to make it myself. Upon reflection on your comments about the pokey thing. Here's my opinion. first, I notice they edited the test here to include a "tent reamer". I don't know what this is supposed to be, maybe an awl variant. But I doubt this was part of the original ideal and someone in marketing came up with it. This tool is ALL about food, it's not a swiss army knife, it's not a multi-tool. Honestly, I think they put it in there because there was room for something and they didn't want to leave it blank. The best suggestion was a foil scorer for wine, followed closely by a punch for draining cans. It's not a file, nor is it an awl, it's missing the necessary components. But after seeing a video where they take a can of tuna in oil, punch a hole in the center of the top, then drop a wick made of paper towel in the hole to make a 2 hour candle I think the "punch" idea has great merit. Oh, they eat the tuna afterwards. neat. Whoever is getting food in the gears is not cleaning this appropriately. These are eating utensils, you should at least run it under a hot tap as soon as you can get to one. Regular washing with soap and water is a healthy thing. Cheese, however, is my nemesis. That stuff does collect, but I found a toothpick will usually clear out the bits {*AHEM* a stiff, round pointy rod would make an excellent addition to this for cleaning}. I keep one trapped under the pokey thing. And an occasional spritz of WD40 will keep it in good shape. Where it will fail: the pins that hold it together. Every failure, every time, the one under the spoon. It will still hold together with just the other pin, but it will rattle a bit and scissor. After that, I've had one where the spoon detached. Had to let that one go. Could have been the bouncing around in a 20 bag of computer crap that did that one in. I'm working on a leather belt holster for my latest one. Thanks for all the good vibes on the video.
