The Ozark is still $38, and the WorkPro is $20 less on Amazon. in practice, the Ozark Trail Multi Force is better in every conceivable way. While I initially liked the WorkPro design, and lauded it for being something new and different. I'm squeezing the tool normally, as one would do when tackling a heavy-duty situation. It's also not like I've got gorilla strength either. Just grasp it and wiggle it and it will come unlocked.

It barely takes any force at all on the open tool. Upon looking at this more closely, even the big knife blade will collapse if you're squeezing the handles tightly. Over and over again, back and forth scraping action caused an almost immediate collapse of the flat driver. Squeezing the tool tightly unloads the individual tool locks, and the flat driver immediately collapsed. These plates are part of the locking mechanism. But where it really fails is this: When you squeeze the handles of the WorkPro tightly, the pliers press against the internal metal plates and flex them. First off the edges of the driver are rounded, so it didn't bite into the silicone as easily. The tool remained locked and never collapsed. The edges of the driver are sharp and got that silicone out easily. I was scraping out a narrow 1-2mm channel, as if removing grout from between tiles. Holding it vertically, I scraped back and forth around the edge of the speaker and the round opening in the cabinet. I used the flat driver on the Multiforce as a scraper. So, I realized i needed to clear more silicone out around the woofer I was trying to unglue and pry out. Once I did, the driver flexed, and I was afraid I was going to break it, so I backed off and went back to the Ozark trail. The flat driver is far thinner, and the edges are rounded.

The WorkPro I have is the nice model with the scissors. It was narrow and tapered enough to get an edge, and strong enough to do the prying. It did not bend or break, it never felt like it was abotu to fail, and it did remarkably well. The flat driver in the Ozark Trail Multiforce is beefy AF. I also used my WorkPro multitool, and the MultiForce was far better. So, I used this yesterday and really beat the snot out of it.
