Customer Reviews for DEWALT MT16 Multi-Tool

For the price, this tool stands out from the rest in its class! I use it consistently on a daily basis, and have done so for two years now. As a long time Leatherman user, I was forced to make an inexpensive purchase, because I lost my Wingman...no major complaints at all about this DeWalt. I've made medium-heavy duty repairs with the pliers involving nut's and bolts, used the scissors for all sorts of purposes without fail, and cranked down on countless screws with the drivers. The blade has a nice edge, too. Like any blade, just maintain it properly. As a major bonus that I quickly learned is that it's got agronomical curvature like no other multi tool. When using the pliers it fits just right into the palm of my hand, without uncomfortable edges pressing into my hand. I can apply much more force without any discomfort. One feature it is lacking, is a pocket clip, but I found a perfect remedy for that...a holster. Yes, contrary to the reviews before mine, there is a holster out there that fits, and it has additional features that highly suit my needs.

I'm lovin 'it!! good quality, would buy this again

Love this product. As a tow operator we are stuck in many situations where small hand tools are necessary and having them all in one place has been a life saver! I have also found the multi tool to be quite durable.

Fumbling around for a screw driver? Frantically looking for spring loaded pliers? Maybe you just cut your nails and need to pry open an ice cold drink on a hot summer day.. This little piece of practicality has got you covered. She is small enough to slip in your pocket but stout enough to handle. Just being able to access all her stainless steel tools without unfolded her is reason enough. When the pliers are unleashed, her ergonomic grips settle comfortably in your palms ready to tackle jobs, hard or soft. One glance at her Black and Yellow trim and I know I’m reaching for a DeWalt tool.

Well made tool but was awkward to use screw driver to install door knob due to tight space.

The Dewalt multi tool puts a lot of tools in your hands at once. The soft grip handles give a good grip and the multi tool selection is easily accessible. It has 16 tools available to you, and is a solid well made tool. The spring loaded pliers is a nice feature on this multi purpose tool.

Blade has no edge and won't stay closed! Disappointed DeWalt!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s your average multi tool. Nothing that special about it. The price makes it somewhat desirable but I have one big problem with it. That’s the color. I wish they made it in other color options.

Sturdy and campact, easy to use

Comparing this tool to my middle of the road Leatherman tool, when closed this tool is about 1/2 in. shorter than my Letherman tool, the finish is not as precise as the Leatherman. Having said that, the price is less than half of what I paid for the Leatherman, and sturdier than other tools I've owned in a similar price range. The knife blade is on the small side, but it has a safety lock and came sharp out of the box. The pliers are spring loaded. The knife seems to be sturdy enough for day to day use.

Great tool, it sits on a table at home when I'm at work due to the fact that it is too heavy to carry in my pocket and they don't make a belt case for it. shame.

I have used this DeWalt M16 for many years, purchased @ Home Depot initially, but am saddened to learn that they are no longer carried by Home Depot. Did find them at another source on line.

A gift for my sons. I bought 2. They are adults and were happy.

I can’t get the knife unstuck from being out. Also. I thought it was a mini-version.

Average tool for the price. No where near the quality as a Gerber or Leatherman. Not bad for the buck though.

Bought this item for Family Emergency pack and we are putting it to the test, but so far so Good!! Great DeWalt Product!!

Very well built. Handy to carry in your pocket when you need a tools. I like the beer bottle opener the best!

Good: compact with spring-loaded handles for one-handed operation.Unfolded handle provides great leverage and grip. Smooth operation and solid construction.Wish: replace can opener and scissor (too small) for a #2 philips and jewelers-size philips and flat (for eyeglasses).

Comes in handy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I carry one in my purse and keep one in each vehicle we have. These little combo tools can be a lifesaver or are great when out shopping garage sales! I also have sent one to each of my sons and it seems their girlfriends now carry them because of how great they are to have with you. I can't even count the times a man has been stuck and I have had it with me to lend them. I would never be without a multi tool such as this one ever. You just never know when it will come in handy. I saw others complain about not having a case, and while that would be a nice addition, it doesn't change the facts on how helpful this tool is.

I've had a lot of bad multi-tools over the years but this M16 holds up
