    a word about their warranty. 22 years ago, my house burned to the ground. in the ashes, we found both of my leatherman tools, still in their melted nylon holsters, warped, and burned beyond repair. I took pics of the house remains, and told the story of the fire, and sent it to their warranty department. they sent me back 2 brand new tools, with the upgraded versions of both. free of charge.

    Other Than Intended Purpose sounds like a completely different company from the one I dealt with. I asked if they would replace the big flathead after it snapped off, even though i had reprofiled the blade and adjusted the screws. They said no. I asked if they could at least send me a replacement for the broken flathead, and they quit responding. I should've taken it out back and hit it with a 9mm, then sent it in with a sob story about how it save my life.

  • @gooe9561

    Leatherman should make a tool that has the individual pieces available separately. You order the skeleton of the tool, then add the pieces that you want. If you want tweezers, add them. If you want scissors, add them. If you don't want a flathead screw driver, don't add it, etc. That way, everyone gets the leatherman they want. A "build-your-own", so to speak.

    I have the leatherman rebar, sidekick, style ps, and am on my second surge set. My first surge set was lost in a move. Leathermans warranty process sets the bar high for multitools. My sidekick is a true sidekick and worked until it broke and even after. When i snapped the needlenose portion of the pliers i was working with it outside in the arctic at around 60 below zero. I emailed them about buying a new plier head and they said no worries send it back. I sent it back and they fixed it and sent it back to me. When i got it back i realized they went through the whole tool. They refurbished it and sharpened every blade on it as well as fixing up the flat head screwdrivers. Talk about customer service, leatherman cares alot about its customers and they dont screw around with their warranties. They want you to know they are there for you. Customer for life here.

    Just a quick correction. On the Leatherman Charge TTI pliers the gap above the main one is not a wire stripper, they are crimpers. The wave and the charge both have wire strippers at the base of the bottle opener where the indent is. Edit: The wave and the charge also have an optional extra for pocket clips and rings for lanyards.

    I can vouch for the Leatherman warranty. I snapped one half of my pliers off of my Leatherman Wave. I drovo down to the factory, (I live in Portland, so it's close) and showed the girl at the front desk. She asked "Would you like it replaced or repaired?" I said "It doesn't matter to me." So, she threw it in a box under the desk and handed me a new one. Done deal. I've been carrying a Wave for a very long time, but I've wanted the Signal ever since it was announced. As someone who spends a lot of time outdoors, the fire-starter trumps all.

    I have owned a Wave for over 15yrs and got the Wave Plus several months ago, ironically I carry the Rebar I got, even more. Something about that throwback to the original PST. I kept my Wingman in the go-satchel for years, but it never got the use that my Wave did, and I switched the Wave Plus to bag duty, with the Rebar on my belt. I'm a die hard Leatherman guy, but I've only gotten what I use and know I'm going to get good function out of. My dad just got the Wave Plus I got him for Christmas to replace the Wal-Mart cheapie multi-tools that he has been fooling with. He got a PST back when they first came out while he was on the Air Force. For some odd reason he retired it for the cheapie junk so I had to get him back on track. Hands down favorite plier based multi-tool. Cheers guys!!!

You missed the extra bit that's stored in the side, which is really useful. The overall shape and look is really cool as well. All in all, it's brilliant. Great video as always, cheers.

    I have most of these (and more) and while i do carry many of them in rotation, the juice S2 seems to be the perfect edc size and tool set. I totally thought the skeletool would be my edc cuz it looks great, is minimal, and has a great blade but it feels heavy as hell for a minimal tool set. My second favorite is an oldie but goodie in the pulse. The older designs were tight, compact and lighter. They reshaped the pliers for more power but that added a lot of size and weight so i think it was a mistake. They did it so tim can do his nail test with the pliers where he cuts a 16 penny nail in half. Its dumb and id rather carry less weight and size daily than be able to cut a nail. If i need to cut a nail, im getting a heavier tool anyway. I mean they are called wire cutters, not nail cutters. The squirt can cut wire.

    Love my crunch! It has a hidden feature under the jaw adjustment screw, if you unscrew it you have a bit driver for regular bits! I like that it has a strap cutting blade because I carry at least one (usually two) knives that I spent too much money on. I love you guys!!!

    I know I'm super late, and I'm trying to catch up on all of your videos. But I've always kind of shied away from companies who sell knives because I've always felt like you have something at stake. But the more I watch your videos the more I have grown to like the general concept of what you guys do. So here I am in 2020 watching a three-year-old video, and wishing that I knew about what you guys do all this time. I appreciate the content, and I hope it's not going anywhere. I will be buying that airplane friendly style for my son until such a time when I can bestow a traditional knife to him. Thanks guys

I typically edc the Surge at work, but am currently working with the Super Tool while I wait for Leatherman to fix my Surge. (I broke a flathead on it.) At home, I rotate between the Rebar, Skeletool, and yes, even the Easter Egg Signal. I've worn the Tread every day since it released and I keep a Brewzer on my keys. Keep the good videos going!

    Your Squirt has lasted five years? Well, I've had a Micra on my keyring constantly since 1996, and it still works fine! I lost it in a camping field once, and went back the next day to find it. I also have an original Supertool from 1997 (Leatherman tools used to be date stamped inside the handles, don't know if they still are). These days, though, my favourite EDC Leatherman is the Rebar - not too big, not too small, all the tools I need, none that I don't, no separate bits to lose. I have a Wingman as well, but that combo blade kind of spoils it for me. Leatherman should offer a plain edge blade option for the Wingman.

    I bought the original Leatherman and carried it for years. Quite a while back I broke the saw blade and did without it for years. Then one day I saw that it was guaranteed for life so I sent it back to them for repair. When it came back it was not my original Leathermen but a new Wave so what a deal. About a month ago I was welding something and used the pliers to hold it and you know what happened, I welded the pliers to the piece and getting them off the end broke off . So they went back to Oregon again. I now have it back like new again. I don't know about the other multi tool manufacturers but Leatherman is top rate. I do have to say though I liked the original a little better than this wave. Why they decided you only needed one big screwdriver option is a mystery.

    Vice grips can be one of the most useful versatile tools around! You can use them for so many odd things, most of us arent schooled in proper use. If the crunch works well it's likely the most useful tool they offer... but I carry a rebar, want to upgrade to a wave+ and I'm not really considering the crunch... main cuz it's for EDC and I NEED a saw and a knife at all times

  • @galahadthegreen5696

    I don’t know if you want to mention this at a later date or something but I carried a wingman and I found that the outer tools on leatherman bite into your hand after a while, it becomes rather a pain to use them because of the 90degree angle on the back of the knife and saw. Unfortunately the back of the saw is what bites into the web of your thumb when using the knife. I carried it for a while and it was more then reliable but I lost it and decided that the rebar was a good way to go

The Sidekick is just that in the center console. The Squirt is nice if you don't want much in your pocket. I think I might need to add a Mut to my range bag. I love them all!
