Goat Multi Tool Review: A Capable, Customizable Winner — With A
SHARE

I’m always looking for ways to improve my gear. I constantly tweak and upgrade my tools to make them more efficient. For example, I customize my knives and add aftermarket accessories to make them even better. As a gear enthusiast and knife fanatic, I’m exactly the kind of person that the GOAT Tool’s Multi-tool was designed for.

I’ve been searching for a customizable multitool for a long time. I’ve swapped features on other multitools for years. The GOAT is the first multitool where every tool, except for the pliers, can be fully and easily swapped. With some planning, and without any other tools, you can have a customized multitool setup to suit your needs.

However, the flexibility-focused design also comes with some handling peculiarities that may make some tools less user-friendly, especially for those new to everyday carry (EDC).

Concept and Design

The GOAT uses a unique design where every tool, except the pliers, can be swapped with ease. It features a cutout in each tool instead of a hole drilled through the base, allowing for easy interchangeability. This innovative design, however, presents some challenges in terms of tool deployment and handling.

EDC Use and Handling

The tool deployment may require a two-handed approach and comes with some idiosyncrasies. However, the satisfactions of customization may outweigh the practical challenges for those who enjoy tinkering and optimizing their tools.

Finish, Fidgeting Factor, and FUBAR

The multitool’s tight tolerances and smooth deployment make it appealing to those with a penchant for fidgeting with tools. However, some tools may catch or require adjustment to minimize unexpected deployment or snagging on other components.

Plying Its Trade

The multitool’s pliers are well-designed and durable, suitable for a wide range of uses. However, the wire cutters may not be as effective as those of some high-end multitools. Despite some drawbacks, the multitool excels in its knife and blade offerings.

A Cut Above

The blades on the GOAT multitool are impressive, providing a high level of functionality and performance. The multitool’s safety cutters and optional blades offer versatility and practicality for various tasks and environments.

Serrated, Saw, and Scissor Tools

The multitool’s saw, serrated blade, and scissors present a mixed performance, with some quirks in their deployment and use. However, the multitool remains functional for a range of tasks, from cutting to sawing.

Drivers and Doodads

The GOAT multitool’s versatile drivers and additional accessories offer a mixed experience, with some tools requiring special effort or presenting limitations. However, the tool’s compatibility with standard bits makes it adaptable to various needs.

Final Customizations

The GOAT multitool provides a high level of customization, allowing users to tailor the tool to their specific preferences. The availability of various handle scales and finishes adds a aesthetic appeal to the already functional tool.

Future Considerations

Despite its quirks, the GOAT multitool presents a compelling value proposition with its customization options and impressive tool offerings. As the company continues to expand its tool lineup and engage with users for feedback and R&D, it may address some of the current limitations and further enhance its product offerings.

GOAT Tools Multi-Tool: Conclusion

The GOAT multitool may not be the ideal first multitool due to its complexities in deployment and practicality, especially for EDC. However, for enthusiasts who enjoy customization and tinkering, the tool offers a level of satisfaction and tailored functionality that other multitools may not. Despite its idiosyncrasies, the GOAT remains a formidable contender in the multitool market and shows potential for future improvements and iterations.
