Here's is my addition to the Leatherman Collection Thread Only got three; but I think they work well as a team From the right moving clockwise; Skeletool CX, Squirt S4, WaveI would like to add a Crunch to this group, but it is difficult to find one at a decent price this side of the Atlantic . I really like the Charges but they seem to upgraded Waves so I may hold off. The Supertool 300 also looks like a heavy duty piece of kit but I do like outboard tools.I also like the Camo and Black Oxide versions of multitools but again pricey, for me anyway
Great start Just a thought, if it were me, my twopenneth ......- If the cost of a tool seems too much - move on, pick another one for your next acquisition. I really wouldn't cough up at UK prices EVER, as generally you can find two serviceable tools for that kind of money by trawling the trade forums here, edcsource.com etc.- Don't be frightened to buy used tools either. Most of these things we covet are built like tanks, and 5 minutes in the sink can make most used tools look like new anyway! By sticking to trading with people you trust (i.e. pretty much any of the regulars on here) and geeting photos of goods, you won't get burned too often.- Wheel and deal. It's fun and can get you things you want! Many of the guys that frequent the trade forums here will have a "trading stock" of tools that they got a good deal on, that you can subsequently trade for something you want!I've built up a fairly respectable sized collection by following the above rules, and have NEVER paid anything like UK RRP for anything! It's taken ages, but I couldn't have done it any other way (I've got kids. And cats. And a Rabbit), so landing tools I've been after for years is generally more rewarding than cash buying from Heinnies, and actually, a great deal of fun! I reckon I could sell the tools I have for 5 - 10 times what I paid for them, which simply adds to the satisfaction Oh, whilst the Crunch is a great, great tool. I'd probably look for either a 4.5" LM next (Supertool, Core, Surge etc) , or a Juice. That'll give you one of each size!
Think I'll go with your advice and focus on a Juice or possibly a 4.5" LM; what would you recommend?
