SOG have forever changed the multi-tool game with their Baton series. The Q4 is the most comprehensive model of the series, offering a variety of wilderness survival tools, as well as a hex bit driver and 12-piece hex bit kit. Housed in the unique baton-style frame, the Q4 and polymer bit kit can be magnetically linked and carried comfortably in the pocket. This is also the only Baton model to come with a sleek leathette case that uses magnetic flaps to stay sealed while not in use. The components include: hex bit driver (magnetic, ¼-inch, ratchet), 1.75-inch 5Cr15MoV straight blade, pliers, bolt/nut gripper, bottle opener, can opener, file (3-sided), small and medium flat screwdrivers, and wire cutter (soft).

Why choose this multi-tool?

• Stylish black and grey anodized aluminum frame
• Houses 10 essential tools for wilderness survival
• Hex bit kit can be upgraded with any standard ¼-inch bits
• Liner lock holds tools in place when open
• Ratchet screwdriver reduces muscle fatigue
• Leatherette case provides secure storage and transportation

Why not?

• Pliers are not spring-loaded
• Large hex bit driver system reduces tool count
• Hex bit kit adds extra-bulk to pocket carry

Pro tip:
Ratchet screwdrivers have their bit locked to the handle for rotation in one direction and uncoupled for rotation in the opposite direction. This mechanism allows you to continuously spin the handle without removing the bit from the screw head.
