Yeh the chainwhips they punish you by directing your hand towards the cassette when it feels like it wants to make you slip.

I do have a multi-19 as does my friend. They are awesome. Great quality, great warranty, decent weight, clean and simple. The only thing is, there's no way of locking the tools in place which can get a bit annoying but it's meant to be an emergency trail tool, not a workshop staple.
