Used my p4 (first multitool) for the first time a few days ago to replace a trailer light plug. 

I was planning on taking pictures of the finished job but it got late, I was frustrated and had other things to do.

How it came in

A Free P2 is the only full size multi tool I own, and it's been doing a great job for well over a year now. I'm actually thinking of upgrading to the P4 because I'd rather have the separate plain and serrated blades, and a saw would actually come in handy at work from time to time. I much prefer the opening action on these models, and the handles are so much more comfortable for me.


Really my only complaint is that I wish the largest driver was just a driver, and didn't have the package opener edge ground into it.

I bought a used P4 a few days into the PST challenge so I haven’t carried it yet, but from handling it at home my first thought is about the serrated blade.

I love a serrated blade, but it’s on the “wrong” side to open easily one handed. If you’re hanging upside down from a seat belt, a bootlace, or a rope, you’re not going to want a Phillips screwdriver or a tiny pair of scissors, you’re going to want a serrated blade!

Since I couldn't find any decent feedback about the damascus blade for p2/p4 sold by DHgate, I decided to get one myself ant test it. I`m not an expert, not sure if it's real damascus, but honestly, that's not a problem for me, I just wanted a plain blade, and since I live outside US it's real hard and expensive to get one from a p4. The blade fits perfectly, but the measures are slightly different, the finish are not even close to the original, the lines are rounded and its not hollow grind, it's flat. The steel holds the edge quite nice, I tested on cardboard and soft wood, easy to sharpen as well, it's advertise as V10.
The p2 has everything I need and fits my pocket, and the fact the all the tools are one hand open makes this my favorite multitool, the one problem was the combo blade, I really hated it, but finally got rid of it, it's perfect for me now, so I consider this a good deal.

I found this YouTube video of a Free P2 being used as a hammer.

I'm having some issues in the last week where the implements on my P2 (the has the can opener) have become stiff and very hard to open. I've oiled it up really well and can get them to pop open with a thumb roll like normal unless I loosen the torx screws holding the tool together. I've also used compressed air to clean out gunk that might be in there. Anything I might be overlooking? Don't want to sent it to Leatherman if it's something I may be overlooking. The P2 has been my edc for a few years now and hasn't given any issues.

    Have you tried WD40? Just loosen the torx screws and give it a good spray!!

I did loosen quite a bit and used 3-in-1 oil, I could really loosen it and use wd40 and see if I can blow some lint or whatever is binding it.

I am so close in buying a P4, I just need a final push...

I have no experience with multitools and I wont carry it daily.  Just want a nice and durable tool with lots of options.

Can you guys please tell me why I should pick the P4 above the Wave+ and Surge if you look purely at the tools.
(ps, I dont care about those extra bit options or T-shank options, for me those are more negative than a positive)

And, could you guys tell me your honest experience with the package opener? Is it purely designed to open blister packages or also taped boxes? And does it do its job???

Free is nice effort my LM to come up with some new ideas. Not comfortable as pliers but P4 is a good package.
Surge is bulletproof but a large tool, too large for many ppl.
Wave has been and remains the #1 choice for many, and for a first-time MT user, would be my recommendation.
Good luck with your choice and welcome to  :MTO:

I really like the P4.

If you don’t want to worry about carrying (and losing) extra bits, it’s got more built in screwdrivers than the Wave+.

The package opener is more for slicing through tape and levering boxes open than for opening blister packs - you’ll need scissors or a knife blade for that.

It’s getting harder and harder as online shopping takes over, but try to handle them to help you decide. You might prefer the feel of one or the other in your hand.

As an only multitool to carry and use, the Free P4 is a good option.

Thanks for the welcome!

So you both like the tools more on the Wave? Do you guys mean like the tool build quality or the actual function of the tools? Because I only see more options at the P4 than on the Wave? (I will not use extra bits on the wave)

Edit: Hmmm those bit kits also have hexagon tools.... Starting to change my mind lol. :ahhh

In hand the Wave feels more sturdy to me but that is an just an opinion :salute: the tools on the Free are modeled after the SideKick/Wingman platform and those tools use to be considered entry tools to Leatherman and I can't get past that :facepalm:

The bit kit of course does make a difference to me as well :cheers: I carry my most used bits in a bit card that stays in my sheath for work :salute:

For me, a lot of my MT preferences are based on how the tool feels in the hand. As suggested by Crunchie64, try to get some hands-on testing if you can.

Or like the rest of us here...look at your first choice as just the start your MT journey  :pok:

Just went through here and it seems I never officially joined this club. Had my P4 out for a cleaning and lube when the mail arrived.

Don’t remember it being as heavy as it feels now. Curious to weigh it vs some of my other tools later. Still a huge fan of the pocket clip though. Makes me want a Bond and wish the Rebar had the same clip.

So after a good cleaning and lubrication the Pliers and small tools open and work much better.

The knife and saw will need some of the little add on bits that Colt uses. Still very hard for me to open one handed.
