Ozark Trail Hobo Tool

I would like to start off by saying that I am not paid nor am I affiliated with Ozark Trail in any manner. That being said I would like to give you my honest review of the Ozark Trail Hobo Tool. The Ozark Trail Hobo Tool is a neat little multi tool for eating. In this blog I will go over the positives and negatives pertaining to the Hobo Tool.

Among the positives is affordability. Priced at three dollars U.S. currency the Ozark Trail Hobo Tool is priced to sell. The Ozark Trail Hobo Tool is constructed well and feels durable. Seven in one tool makes the Ozark Trail Hobo Tool a versatile tool. The seven tools are as follows: can opener, bottle opener, corkscrew, awl, knife, spoon, and a fork.

The negatives are as follows. The can opener is not engineered very well making it a time consuming process just to open a can. There is no locking mechanism for the knife, fork, or spoon making the Ozark Trail Hobo Tool dysfunctional for a left hander person to use. I find the awl to be a waste of a tool. I would of much rather have a tooth pick.

In all I give the Ozark Trail Hobo Tool 5 out of 7 stars since five out of the seven tools are useful. As long as you are not a left hander the Ozark Trail Hobo Tool is an affordable and compact way to take care of your utensil needs.

Buck Paklite 143 Review

I would like to start off by saying that I am not paid or affiliated with Buck in any manner. That being said I would like to offer my honest review of the Buck Paklite 143. There are both positives and negatives about the Paklite.

Among the positives is quality for price. The Paklite cost about twenty U.S. dollars compared to the ESEE IZULA’s sixty dollar price tag. The Paklite is constructed out of 428C stainless steel and come razor sharp. It weighs in at 2.8 ounces. Although designed as a light weight skinning tool the Paklite is a cutting machine for its size. The Paklite slashes through hardwood with ease and also batons size appropriate wood fairly well.

Although the Paklite is a great knife there are some negative things about it. The handle is a little short for the average person’s hand. The Duracoat falls off quickly with regular use. Underside of the Paklite is a little dangerous because of the short handle.

For the most part the Buck Paklite 143 is a great knife for the price. If you are looking for a light weight and durable knife that can take a beating than this is the knife for you.
