when tool is closed does it stay closed or does it want to come open on its own

Allan,The tool stays closed. Everything fits snuggly and all the interior flip-to-use items lock into place. This is a really smart & well made tool. I have since bought 2 more of them for my car & rifle bag. With this item and an allen key-set you could adjust, fix, alter just about anything.

The tool stays closed, but I have not used it a lot. I have a leatherman Wave for my work.

Mine stayed closed so well I had to loosen it a bit so I could flip it open easier. You should have no problems. (:

it has to be turned to open, and turned to reclose. Mine didn't stay closed very good. But it might of been me.

It comes in closed position. Great value and very sturdy. Extremely easy to flip open or close to store away! Super excited to have this in my home. We have owned it for about a year and it has proven a great buy. Hope this helps!

Mine was stuck at first, but after I got it open the first time it opens and closes easily. It's a twist and groove set up.

It is a spring and cam type system. If the door is open it will stay open, but once you start to close the door it will pull itself closed. The mechanism in is the center behind the hinge.

No, this is normally closed and then open when power is applied. I'm very happy with the two of them that I bought.

No, you have to open the multi tool and lock out the blade.In order to close it you have to push in the handle tabs to release to locking mechanism.

As it is screwed down I would assume that it would stay shut, my grandson has not been able to loosen it and he plays hard with it.

No they don't "lock" in the opened position. Only the knife and scissors lock in the opened position. I have read some of the other answers to your question saying that the tools "lock" in the opened position. There is a resistance spring to hold them open but to me this isn't "locked". I own some Gerber tools and they have what I call a "lock open" position. You have to slide a locking bar to release an open tool. You can actually "pry" against the lock without having it unlock.

The blade will stay open until you close it, it is spring assisted, I hope this answers your question!!

you open the tool up and it close it over your key ring where the opening is at the top of the tool when it is closed

It's not necessary to close it; it controls how "tight" the closing is, though. The hook stays closed by the end of that screw slipping into slight indentation on the top of the bracket, so if it's not staying closed very well, you can tighten the screw so it's more secure.

when it's in the closed position there's a trigger on top of the handle push that like a switchblade and it automatically opens and locks in place

Yes. when closed and you un- latch to open it open automatic. So when closing you have to push down on lid to close. In other words the lid wont fall shut by its self you have to push down on the lid to close.

1) Notice that each tool has a recess that snaps into a square opening on the handle. To close an opened tool, press on the other tools in the same side (push them into the handle). This will raise the lock and the open tool may be closed safely. Note: each tool does not have a separate lever for this; the tools that are closed are the lever - simply push them into the handle to raise the lock and fold the open tool. 2) Closing the tool itself is a matter of folding the handles back around the pliers. The handle may be folded around the pliers while a tool is open. Try it both ways to see how the tools works best for the purpose at hand. 1) Notice that each tool has a recess that snaps into a square opening on the handle.

There is a very slight click that you feel when you close it, but it never opens freely. It's designed so that you naturally don't turn that part of the mill. I agree, great craftsmanship!
