Very decent NiMh battery packs
1 of 1 found this helpful These Ni-Mh batteries were a surprise. All four arrived in good shape and had a charge, a better charge than some new 2.0ah Ryobi lithium out of the box I received at the same time. These are heavier than the cheap NiMh batteries you occasionally find, almost half he weight of a NiCd. That is a sign of good quality NiMh cells inside. Time will tell the ultimate tale, but they seem to be very good battery packs, and this coming from someone who has rebuilt battery packs before. The cases seem to be of decent quality, and they fit tools like factory batteries with no extra play.

The Ryobi JobPlus multi-tool, a great addition to any set.
The Ryobi multi-tool is sturdy, well built and designed, as well as powerful. I would rate it as low-mid contractor grade quality. It would get an even higher rating if it were brushless.
This tool is going to see some serious use/abuse in my tool set, though I initially wondered whether I would even have a use for one. Now that I have seen how they work, and what they can do, I am impressed.
What sets a RYOBI JobPlus apart from the pack is that you can use Ridgid brand multi-tool heads on the Ryobi power-plant body and batteries, giving you the option of a tool-free multi-tool head, metal shears, one-hand sawzall, right angle drill, right angle hex impact, 3/8 ratchet, impact nailer, and whatever other head Ridgid designs for their JobMax multi-tool. The lockup and drive mechanisms between the Ryobi JobPlus and the Ridgid JobMax are exactly, and I mean exactly the same. This plus makes it a winner even when compared to really high dollar brands. As with any Ryobi One tool, it is completely backwards/forwards compatible and will use factory and/or aftermarket Lithium Ion, NiMh, or Nicad battery packs.

Good quality survival knife
I am very critical of knives. This is a 1095 blade, which is a good knife steel that holds an edge. It is not a high-carbon tool steel, but is better than most stainless blades available. The powder coating is good quality and the grip is both comfortable and non-slip. The thickness of the spine is unreal, at least a full 1/4" thick steel. This blade is built to be used and abused and will take a beating. The blade geometry is very functional and will skin a deer or carve wood with equal facility. The blade is a good length for a side-knife, long enough for some larger jobs but small enough to also retain control with fine carving tasks. The knife is heavy though, which is to be expected of a good steel knife with a thick spine. The sheath is okay, with a plastic liner to protect the heavy nylon from the blade. The included ferro fire-steel is functional but on the small side -- a 3/16" rod. Overall, comparing to the joke stainless-steel "survival" knives available on the market this is a real winner, especially for the price.
As far as the hassle of oiling a high-carbon blade? Would you complain about taking care of your other equipment? Good quality always earns a little bit of good care.
1095 steel is .95% carbon, which is reasonable, though not = 1.0% which would earn it the title of a good tool steel like O1, A1, or D2, so don't expect it to cut the edge off of a joke stainless blade like a wood shaving. 1095 is actually the same steel used in the old Schrade+ steel and many other older high quality blades of yesteryear. This blade uses a time-honored proven good quality knife steel. Unless you want to invest a couple hundred in tools, spend time learning the skill of knife-making, and then buy a chunk of O1 and make a truly great knife yourself, for a little over $30 this knife won't be easily beaten.
