I would have to say holmatro has my vote.

The open and close mechanism actually requires a reasonable force to operate, it doesn't just move around whenever you move the tool so its not really an issue.

I gues it would come down to servicing and care of the tools as to how well they are maintained.

Well, we had cause to use the Holmatro Combi-tool the other day. :-)

we had a car run up the back of a truck, and get wedged in such a wau we had to cut the A pillar to serarate th evehicles ( NO injuries).

we were all really pleased with the flexibility of the tool, not to mention the light weight of the pump and tool combined.

Needless to say, really pleased with the gear, am happy to use it again.
