What is great about it? What are you comparing it to? Is there anything you don't like about it? How long have you owned it?
(when people post that something its just "great", the next thing that should be done is to list some personal experience (facts and logic) to help make you case)
Solkoa has made these grips for a Sawsall blade, I have not tried it out yet, but I have one on order, replacement blades in any home depot or lowes.

Well, I got my SOLKOA a bit ago and was able to give it some use after IRENE, I sawed up a few limbs outside and it worked like a champ.
I picked up some pruning blades for outside and some Dewalt rescue blades for the Emergency kit.
I don't think the drill bit would be fun to use, but I have not tried it with a bow yet, (think fire starter type bow)
The screwdriver attachment is handy in a pinch, but with a larger emergency kit I have a dedicated multiple tip screwdriver.
All in all a good tool for a Hunting pack, Emergency kit.
The school's experience with both the Sawvivor and Sven show they are far from similar. The command bought 25 of the Sawvivors, of that, 20 were KIA over the course of 2 winters. Of the 10 Svens currently fielded, only 2 have had mishaps, and that was only blade replacements.
I'm also interested in trying out Solkoa's offering. It looks like good BOB kit.
