How do you like your OHT? I've heard mixed things about it. What would you compare it too in terms of tool set and close competitor for function?

What would you compare it too in terms of tool set and close competitor for function?Love it!!!The pliers fit my hands perfectly and I find I can put quite a bit of force on them without stretching my hands. I also like the fact that all the tools are on the outside and can be opened with One Hand. In saying that, I would have liked a longer plain blade and possibly a file instead of a saw. Here in Oz we need to exercise some caution in carrying tools with blades. Having the OHT, I can get away with the fact that it is to an extent focused on First Responders. I am a train driver and have no trouble at all carrying it, but that fact helps a little too. The only other tool I had that was similar was a Gerber 400, which I did not like at all. The Leatherman feels better, IMHO and I prefer the tools on the outside. Cheers,Pete
Thanks for the input, I've been looking at the silver scaled version. I don't know if I'd enjoy the molle sheath though.

I'm stuck between trying to make my own leather sheath or buying a skinth catch all. The skinth is very close to everything I want but I prefer leather to nylon. Choices are always hard.

The skinth is very close to everything I want but I prefer leather to nylon. Choices are always hard.Go ahead and try. I looked closely at the Leatherman sheaths and started to copy the ones I liked. That gave me enough practice and confidence to start "designing" what I wanted. Start with a paper template and work from there. I have a Skinth for my Juice Pro. They are well made and well worth the money. I'm happy to help with pics and advice if needed. Sorry for derailing the thread a little.Cheers,Pete
Thanks for the input. So give it a shot, if I fail skinth is a good idea. Not a problem.

My favorite and my current EDC....I have been messing around with it and turn it into a mini-Surge, so far the Wingman scissors work good for me and they have been incredibly useful, so does the awl. Also did a little mod to the sheath

(Image removed from quote.)ST300 is favourite at the moment. Style PS and juice XE6 close behind. XE6 is great but a bit too heavy, maybe some day I get S2 model from juice series. Until then ST300 is favourite.With ST I like inside tools. When you need something, you open the "toolbox" and select the tool needed. Juice again is more multitool then toolbox. Pocket knife with pliers and other tools. ST I again see more like a toolbox type of multitool.
