Hey I'm looking for a capable multi-tool that can cut really hard things. What Imagine that would be pretty tough and realistic to go through is chain-link fences, and it would be really awesome to have a multi-tool that could go through a fence. My Charge TTI could do it, but it takes a lot of strength to break through the fence. So I'm looking for a different multi-tool that will give me the efficiency to go through a fence really quick. What i'm thinking about is the SOG Powerlock because of it's compound leverage, but the ST-300 has really high quality 154cm wire cutters. Whats your opinion on which multi-tool is better built for really hard stuff?

Any other multi-tool would be appreciated as well.
 
ST 300 is about as good as it gets , certain benefits acrue to having replaceable cutter knives . Bear in mind that all Multitool plier heads are cast , that is the real weakness of the breed . If you want to cut chainlink fence as a steady diet , you will probably need dedicated pliers .

called a Commando Wire Cutter, I bought it from Actiongear.com a few years ago, also Gerber makes a Wire cutter as well that may be better for that purpose.

The ST 300 is by far the best for this. A major gripe with the SOG Powerlock is because of the gears, the handles open twice as wide as they should- so it's harder to cut larger material and grab larger bolts etc. The ST 300 is proven by me and cuts wire/cable with ease!
