In this review of the Utility Tool by Bear Grylls, the author looks at who will get the most use from this multitool and why it stands out as an everyday carry option. The bottom line: it is best for campers, hikers, and anyone who wants a compact, moderately priced multitool with practical implements like a bottle opener, can opener, pliers and screwdriver. The review focuses on real-world usefulness rather than marketing copy and highlights the tool's build, portability, and limitations for heavier tasks.
Key Features
- Multitool layout: Includes pliers, a can opener, bottle opener and screwdriver, giving a small set of tools that handle common outdoor and EDC tasks.
- Compact size: The medium model folds down to a pocketable length that is easy to carry during day hikes or around town.
- Black oxide finish: The finish reduces glare and adds basic corrosion resistance for use in damp or coastal conditions.
- Sheath included: A sheath provides a quick storage option when pocket carry is not desired and helps keep other gear scratch free.
- Brand design: The Bear Grylls name indicates a focus on survival and outdoor practicality aimed at casual users and campers.
Who It's For
The Utility Tool is a good fit for weekend campers, day hikers, and everyday carry users who want a small selection of tools in a single package. Its combination of pliers and openers makes it handy for campsite food prep, quick repairs and casual field tasks without the bulk of a larger multitool.
It is not aimed at professional tradespeople or heavy-duty users who need large cutting edges, high-torque drivers or industrial-grade materials. Those users should seek a larger, heavier duty multitool designed for sustained industrial use.
