They are sharp alright , I had to have surgery on my thumb after I slipped with with my wave while carving a pumpkin .
Post by: ketchupgun on December 20, 2011, 10:20:57 AM
I'm actually trading the juice away. It seems redundant in my edc (a Sak & squirt). What I need is a real flashlight & the trade is in the works.
(FYI. If I'm working or snowboarding the Wave replaces the squirt)

After my Charge gets back I'm thinking about swapping its plier head with Wave (can anyone confirm they are the same size? I'm assuming they are.) I never ever use the crimper on the pliers and I would like larger gripping area.
Post by: Threeme2189 on December 25, 2011, 11:20:54 AM
Charge TTi is my newest Leatherman but I've just ordered Wave since my Charge was sent on warranty and I need something for new years ;)

You shouldn't have any problems. They are exactly the same size. :tu:

Great tool & all, haven't opened it from the package yet. They included a gift receipt, and after checking the store's website I found they paid $44.99 for it, which means I will probably find time tomorrow to exchange it. For $45 I could get one at regular price with $5-10 to boot. Normally I would be all over this, but I bought one earlier this year & sold it, just not for me.

Just got a belated Christmas present: a newer Juice Xe6! It's awesome but I'm not sure I like the new way they're printing the names on the Juice line. I really liked having Leatherman on one side and the model on the other.
i didnt know they had changed it. im guessing from what you have said, that its all on one side now? and pics?

Sure thing! (Hope you don't mind the weird angle, it makes it look like one side is longer but I promise it isn't.) The logo is starting to grow on me, it just looked weird for a while!

I was in the local antique mall yesterday. Saw in the case an original Supertool and in another case a Leatherman Sheath holding what I suspect was a Supertool. Might go back tomorrow before having a drink at the pub and see what the quality is. This place has absurdly high mark up....so it's always a turn off.

It is CE. I have mixed feelings about it. I normally prefer PE for knives, but for a tool I think CE might be OK.

Did you get the EOD or the stainless? I have the EOD and i love it.I got the SS one, the EOD model was not available in the store I went to. I do not think I could have made any use of the EOD features anyway. So in the end, I am happy, this tool will fit in well with my Leatherman collection going back to my original PST.

In all of my involvement here at Multitool.org, I have learned that one can never own too many MT's. My goal is to knock out all of the Leathermans I can get my hands on, and then I think I will concentrate on Victorinox.
By the way, could someone please explain this to me - Are Swiss Army and Victorinox two different companies, or is Swiss Army a generic term, or does Victorinox make all Swiss Army knives and MT's. Thanks!

So if you have $8000 and 5 years (and the luck to be able to find them) you might get a partial collection.
I will have to loosen the bounderies of my collection and see where it takes me. I'll draw the line when they become little specialized dremel tools!

I'm not an expert but my understanding is that there are 2 companies that have both made products under contract with the Swiss Army, Wenger and Victorinox, so they both claim that they sell "official swiss army knives".

Victorinox and Wenger are both Swiss based knife makers, though IIRC Vic was founded first. Vic bought out Wenger back in 05 or so and both brands are owned by Vic and produced under their respective names.
Vic has always claimed the "Original" SAK while Wenger advertised as the "Genuine" SAK.
Victorinox currently has the only Swiss Army contract to make their Soldier model based on the One Handed Trekker.

Just out of curiosity, Wenger "speaks" french while Victorinox does german.

For the tools I have now; the style is on my keyring, the charge I have in my car, the skeletool is in my civilian clothes and the MUT is on my dutybelt, use it a lot.
When the OHT will come out I think it's gonna replace the MUT, but only when the OHT had the Bob (J-sews) mod on them :D

I've been promising myself one of these for years as I'm endlessly stripping fine wires and, when I've no fullsize tool, the SOG Crossgrip on my keychain isn't really that nice to use.
I gotta say, i'm really impressed with the quality of it (1st squirt I've ever owned), it snaps into the open position and is very precise to use. I thought the size might be an issue for regular use, but it sits nice in my hand and the matt finish on the handles gives excellent grip so I think it'll get called upon quite often. Nice one LM :tu:

The squirt ES will be mine to play with. One thing I noticed is there are nog screws that can be tightened anymore....strange since I found some play on the pliers. Normally tightening the screws up solves this.....strange move by Leatherman

I bought a Squirt PS4 about a week ago. It has gone with me everywhere, great little tool.
PS I bought the black one
I bought the Squirt P4 today (Blue).
I had a choice between the P4 and the PS4, so I chose the P4 because of the little awl.
I am EDC it no as a supplement to my ST300. Nice little tool.

After handling the PS4 scales, I much prefer those on the P4. Somehow, the PS4 feels "powdery" and kinda makes my skin crawl a bit.

Agreed, the old smooth scales definitely felt better IMO. Happily the 'powdery' feel of the PS4 scales is toned down after it's been bashed around on your keys for a little while. :)I bought the Squirt P4 today (Blue).

And that Squirt P4 marks my third. I bought a second as a backup, but my wife took it, so I had to buy another. What's funny is that all three are different colors (not just shades). Two are purplish-grey, and the third is more of a dark, pewter/bluish grey:

Whats the deal with leatherman and S30V? I have noticed that the blad grinds, and sharpened edges are all funky. Not just mine but several, ive seen.
internal tools are tight as well.
Oh and my saw is tapered, and thinner at the top, than at the teeth, is this a new design or arth they cheaping out like thye seem to have done with smaller scissor thumb pads?
Post by: Gareth on April 12, 2012, 11:09:01 AM
finally scored a TTI, the blade is gritty anf opens rough and grindy. The serrated is smooth as silk, though.Nope, they will have always been like that. The teeth have to be wider than the steel behind them of else the saw will bind sawing wood.

It's the same for the saw on my Victorinox Rucksack when I measured it with my digital caliper. If anything, I wish the taper was even more so it would get stuck even less.

There was also a limited Cosco Christmas run of those sheaths with a Core and Monarch 300. I contacted Leatherman one time and tried to get one, but she said that they were only made to order for the combo packs and they did not have them :cry:
But you can still find the Freestyle / Monarch 300 combos on eBay from time to time :tu:

I just purchased a Leatherman Style PS with the intent of trying out a little ultralight EDC along with an Alan Folts made Folts Minimalist tanto in a neck configuration.

Another Juice S2 arrived today Orange, and a Style PS is on the way!
As for the Juice, the logo appears to be different than the older versions I have in an S2 and C2.
Cheers,

Yes, Leatherman has redone the logo on the Juice line (and on the anodized Micras). I like the new format very much.

I also broke down and ordered a BO Rebar. I've been using a modded Charge Ti in my EDC bag as the core of my EDC toolkit, the Rebar is lighter and has just the tools I want, especially the full-sized square-shank Phillips driver that I put on my Charger, so I can use all the same drivers, extensions and bits.
Post by: Lynn LeFey on May 21, 2012, 04:58:17 AM
I thought the scissors were pretty good, and yeah, it was SHARP. For it's price-point, I think it's a good tool... for righties. (stupid everything made for right-handed people!) :D

I have only ever had 2 in my life, as far as I can remember. One I gave to a coworker a few years ago. One I gave to my husband.
And now... one shows up in my tool belt.
So... I guess it gets added as my latest Leatherman.

They were still around a few days ago when I was there. Even before they went on clearance sale they were $29. Shipping from the US (at least my part of it) looks to be $16.95.

Could you do me a favor? Next time you are near Home Depot, grab one (sheath doesn't matter) even if they are $29 a pop, email me at idioottifiltteri -at- gmaildotcom and I'll paypal you some.
Like I said, Leatherman tools are stupidly expensive in finland.

Post by: sergemaster on May 23, 2012, 11:34:18 PM
I have to say that the Style PS is not a bad little bugger! It's light, and reminds one of a miniature Skeletool without the main blade. It does encompass a small pair of scissors reminiscent of the version found on the PS4 and function ably. The bottle opener works flawlessly, and the file is guess what is really a file and does a good job once utilized in that function.
All in out, the Style PS would make a great secondary to either a fixed or folding blade either used in an EDC situation if such laws allow you, or if you're a "gram weenie" when it comes to the outdoors where every ounce counts, and the need for a full sized MT just isn't an option.
Personally, when on a day hike in the field, I now carry just an original Folts Minimalist along with a PS since where I go, the need for a full sized MT isn't necessary. Let me also conclude mentioning that the Style PS is TSA approved, so no need to worry about yours being confiscated later to turn up on Ebay as part of a TSA goods auction.
Cheers,
Serge

I was just working on a project tonight and used the ridge between the crimper and the regular pliers. I was splicing a new headphone jack on my FM transmitter for my truck, and I used that ridge to crimp the tiny splices. Fantastic.

I just received my Rebar a friend send. Might be one of the first in germany, it's yet to be announced on leatherman.de
I've had a classic Supertool with me since 1999, was about time for something new. The rebar looks tiny next to the ST, I'm not sure if it's sturdy enough for my needs. But it's much less of a chunk in my pocket. We'll see how it performs having a hard life on a farm.
edit:
I'm impressed, the wirecutters are sharp enough to cut paper.

My BO wave is even cooler than I thought it would be. I look forward to putting battle scars on it, I love a good worn BO look.
I have gotten tons of compliments on it, and I'm really glad i got it because I needed the serrated blade and bit driver last night. My blast wouldn't have done the job. Rebar would have, but I did need the OHO blade so it would have been harder.

Such an awesome tool, aftering using it for long, any of the Charges feel like marshmallows becuase of the extra thickness. I know its not much.
Keep and eye open for a bum BO ALX on eBay, that's how I outfitted my Black Tide with the second bit driver, 154cm blade and gut hook SE.

Hi there JB.. :tu: Let us know how you get along with your Rebar.. :)
Well, after a few days some second thoughts on the Rebar.
-It's small and light, really feels nice in my pocket.
-for it's over all size the plier head is huge and very strong
-The blades and drivers are very delicate compared to the ST300 my kollegues carry. Usually I use the leatherman for a first repair attempt and if that's not going to work I'd fetch some dedicated tools. A Hazet screwdriver for example is a different kind of tool. But I'm a bit afraid I'd still manage to break something cause I'm used to the much stronger ST classic.
- Does leatherman employ trained monkeys to operate the grinding machine? Mine came with a jagged, uneven ground straight blade. Not very sharp in the front either. Took a while to fix that with my spyderco sharpmaker. The serrated blade on the other hand is perfectly ground.

- Does leatherman employ trained monkeys to operate the grinding machine? Mine came with a jagged, uneven ground straight blade. Not very sharp in the front either. Took a while to fix that with my spyderco sharpmaker. The serrated blade on the other hand is perfectly ground.
My Wave suffered from the same problem, the main blade had a really uneven grind (which I have long since fixed), but the serrated blade was immaculate out of the box. Now I just have to learn how to sharpen a serrated blade!

Huh, I must've gotten lucky in the Straight Blade Lottery. Mine was properly ground, and in fact, it's one of the sharpest out-of-the-box I recall getting on a Leatherman. Most have needed at least a little touch-up to get as sharp as I like.

Hi there JB.. :tu: Let us know how you get along with your Rebar.. :)
Well, after a few days some second thoughts on the Rebar.
-It's small and light, really feels nice in my pocket.
-for it's over all size the plier head is huge and very strong
-The blades and drivers are very delicate compared to the ST300 my kollegues carry. Usually I use the leatherman for a first repair attempt and if that's not going to work I'd fetch some dedicated tools. A Hazet screwdriver for example is a different kind of tool. But I'm a bit afraid I'd still manage to break something cause I'm used to the much stronger ST classic.

I agree about the blade thickness. The drivers (except the phillips, it rocks) are a bit on the wee side and the blades themselves are just too thin for me. I still love the tool and it is a rock solid backup for me. I actually still use it all the time because of it's awl and completely kick a$$ pliers and cutters.
Nice.
I got my BO Wave in today, ordered it last week as I need to send my Charge in for warranty and didn't want to be without an OHO tool in the interim. It's safe to say that I have converted to this format, I love these tools!
I know right?
I am just collecting BO tools :)
I am in love with my Black Tide.
My BO wave is even cooler than I thought it would be. I look forward to putting battle scars on it, I love a good worn BO look.
I have gotten tons of compliments on it, and I'm really glad i got it because I needed the serrated blade and bit driver last night. My blast wouldn't have done the job. Rebar would have, but I did need the OHO blade so it would have been harder.
Such an awesome tool, aftering using it for long, any of the Charges feel like marshmallows becuase of the extra thickness. I know its not much.
Keep and eye open for a bum BO ALX on eBay, that's how I outfitted my Black Tide with the second bit driver, 154cm blade and gut hook SE.
I do like how slim it is, and I just love the BO. I call it my Stealth Leatherman, and my boss just laughs. I used the hell out of it last night.

Certainly doesn't feel as solid as PSTs, Supertool or Rebar, but for not much bigger than a Squirt, this thing takes the Squirt's lunch money and stuffs it in a locker. I'm surprised how comfortable it is to grab with only the first part of the legs opened- this thing has porcupine quill pulling written all over it.

Congratulations, it's a fine multitool :tu: I recently acquired one myself, via eBay, and i gotta tell you...it's one of my favorites :climber: Although it was used, it's near mint condition.!

Black oxide is a great finish on MT's.Being my first BO MT is might be a first due option from now on with new MT's. Special thanks to Sazabi for the great service. Thanks to him my Personal Survival is stylin and profilin.

This is a wave with BO handles and silver tools on everything else, the blade is S30V steel from a Charge TTI and also put two bit drivers on it. I plan to sharpen the can opener and make it a "beater" blade.
I am very pleased with this :multi:

The Fuse is gonna be the new edc for a bit. weight and size is great,the tool combo in it fits needs at work well. ST300 is on the shelf. dont wanna tell everyone why cause im gonna hear Rebar alot.
Mini Tool is for the wife. Her first multi and why not a Mini Tool. 10 dolla made me holla. No play in the plier joint,well kept blade,straight driver is fair and the file still has some life to it. The can and bottle openers look like new. No date code on it. Is that normal? The poor Mini is gonna be a Purse Pirate with a pink lanyard :facepalm:but she'll be ready with some edc.

PRO:
It's freakin' Vise Grip-type pliers in a folding multitool
full-size hex driver
It has a knife, screwdrivers, and file.
CON:
It has a knife, screwdrivers, and file that are all on the short side.
I can't see me carrying this as my EDC, but it will probably go live in my work bag for a while.

Oh, agreed. I can only imagine the engineering that went into getting a Vice-Grip™ into that form factor, I'm sure at least a few folks at Leatherman burned some midnight oil and tore out some hair to make that work!
I can't see me carrying this as my EDC, but it will probably go live in my work bag for a while.
Yeah, it's an odd tool that way, neither fish nor fowl. Too specialized for EDC, and if you need that sort of utility enough to pack one in your bag, you could carry a real pair of Vice-Grip pliers instead.
An amazing tool, though, all the same!

Well I think you have just decided what I'm going to carry today. Mine has been a little modified but is still essentially a PST II (just with a fully plain blade and an extra slip washer to stop the blade clumping). Great tool selection in the PST II and in such a slim package. :tu:

I love the feel of it, but i am a little disappointed with the scissors. All the reviews and videos i have seen have raved about them, and how they are the best scissors on any leatherman. They are certainly the biggest, but they dont feel nearly as solid as the ones on my Blast or Wave.
Would also prefer to have something other than three flat head drivers. Maybe a precision bit holder? The S2 seems pretty popular with IT guys, so i'm sure they would get more use out of that than the medium flat head.

Juice S2. Have wanted one ever since i was in highschool... Mostly because of the color(Got the orange one)The scissors on my orange S2 have been fine, better than the scissors on some of my SAKs in fact. They're one of the reasons I like my S2 so much, and lately I've been carrying it a lot more than a SAK. (Who am I kidding? I carry my S2 and a SAK every day... :whistle: )

I agree about the three flathead drivers... ugh. I'd gladly loose the medium or large one for a size 0 phillips. I'd prefer the blade be flat ground too, instead of the cheap hollow ground one it comes with.
All things considered though, I like my S2 so much, I've got a CS4 at the top of my wish list for my next MT.

Lately, I've been carrying my new gray S2 and Xe6 more often. Possibly due to my foot's condition forcing me to realise my days of "hacking the airfield out of the jungle" are pretty much over :cry:

She got me a lovely little package containing a Storm Gray Juice C2 and a Red Style. I've never had a style and I must say that it is pretty cool. I like how all the tools open AWAY from the keyring end, something my Vic Manager does not do. And the C2 is sweet, I was thinking of getting an S2 lately but funds are short and I really don't care for the juice scissors anyway. Hands down the coolest gift of the year so far.

Thanks, David. I just now paid for one of the Leatherman Charge TTi Multi-Tool, 24k Gold Plated Functions and Handles. I probably paid too much for it, but it was the cheapest one I could find on fleaBay.
Paying too much for something doesn't really bother me too much if it's something I really want, and I really wanted the Gold plated Charge. I'll post pics when it gets here.

Nice, Hammer :salute: are those the painted ones or the ones with alu scales added?They are not painted, (IMHO). Although I am not an expert by any stretch of the imagination, it seems obvious to me that the coloring is definitely a part of the alu scales. Is there any way I can tell for sure?
They all came in their original packaging. The pink was in a clamshell pack. They all say "anodized aluminum handles".

You are absolutely right! There is NO paint on the blue one, and on the other colored ones, there are white markings, but I cant tell if they are decals or paint. I went to the Leatherman web page, and it shows a tiny thin line in the writing, as opposed to the bold markings on my Micras. I will have to say that my Micras are painted. :oops:

I couldn't find my Spirit, and after a week of searching ordered a Rebar. I found the Spirit several minutes after the Rebar shipped lol :D. I like the Rebar, lighter than I expected, good tools. I wear jeans to work and switch to shorts when I get home, so I just leave one on each belt and both get good use.
Good man. :salute: The Rebar is my favorite tool at the moment. :)

So a Rebar is just a mini-ST300? Looks just the same except for the size, or is there something I'm missing? Now that I've got an ST300, I'm finding myself much more interested in a Rebar and a Charge... The Rebar head in a Charge AL would be pretty sweet! :drool:

The price was reasonable so it came home with me.
This is the first original Leatherman that I've handled, and I can see why this model has some very loyal fans. It is built like a tank and has a very good assortment of tools.
It does not have a pocket cliip, so it won't become my EDC and it may even be up for trade soon.

I got a polished Sideclip today date stamped 0204/0504 and 0404/0404 :D I just love Ebay :tu:
Score!!! I would give an arm away for a polished sideclip!! Mine is the beadblasted version and i have owned it since 2000 so it is really beat up.

The Pulse is a nice tool. Glad you got one Hammer! How do you like the locks?
I loathe the locks! They tear my thumbs up. Still though, I have to have it!
I felt the same way when I first got a Pulse but I soon got used to them. :)

$65 for an AL is a fantastic price, mind if I ask where you got it from?

Just got a Style PS in a trade with Heinz. Now I need to ship him his Squirt S4.Well, I can testify that it is definitely TSA friendly, as I flew with it in my EDC bag that I took as a carry-on with me a number of times when I was flying back home to California for the holidays when I was teaching in Iowa. The security guys would sometimes start with a "You're gonna have to get rid of that" line but after I told them to look actually at it, it shut them up pretty quick.

I actually like the locks on the pulse, but the same ones on the ST200 drive me nuts. I can't get a comfortable grip when using the inner tools on the ST200, but due to it's smaller size the pulse fits my hand perfectly.

I just got a Squirt S4; great little tool... it's in like-new condition. Nice combo of tools; the scissors need a little bit of work, but otherwise seem good. I like the hand feel much better than the Style CS. The blade is the same, but this one is in good condition. Bottle opener is tiny but will work, and I like the very small philips and flathead drivers it has; great for glasses wearers like me.
I'm torn whether to keep it as a pocket tool, or put it in my personal FAK, which is generally with me most of the time anyway. :facepalm:

4 months ago I had 2 micras that I used for fishing. Today I have 56 in my lockable toolbox, 2 on my boat, and two more on the way (an orange fuse and a gold plated sidekick). It's only going to get more intense because I know myself very well. Not to mention I am bipolar, and if any of you know anything about bipolar people, we tend to look for instant gratification, so I will not rest until I feel that I have quenched that urge for Leatherman Multitools.
Thanks alot MTO!
Oh, and the purpose of this post is to say that my latest Leatherman Multitools will be the orange fuse and the gold plated sidekick.
It's all good!

It showed up yesterday and I carried it today while I did some yard work. It is hefty, but I was comfortable with it in my pocket. I'm sure that it will be even more comfortable with the pocket clip installed.

Post by: Heirphoto on November 05, 2012, 04:09:10 PM
I like the scissors and the outside opening one handed knife on the Wingman as I use these the most and with easy access I don't need to carry a knife too.
The Wingmand looks a little cheap at first but has quickly become a favorite tool.
Won a nice lookking Core on ebay Saturday. That will be my at home tool for quick projects and will stay in the Kitchen "everything" drawer.

Post by: parnass on November 05, 2012, 04:59:16 PM
1) The web site stated it came with the leather case, but it arrived with the basic nylon case.
2) I concluded that I probably wouldn't use the Rebar much after all. The Pulse tools are more useful to me than the Rebar (scissors, tiny screwdriver, diamond coated file), but I realized I don't use the Pulse much either. The reason is due to the hassle of opening the entire tool to get to the individual blades. I've been spoiled by the Victorinox Spirit and Crescent ToolZall Pro which have blades which open from the outside and they are so much faster and easier to deploy.
3) The Rebar's knives and flat screwdriver blades are thin and have that "rust inviting" appearance compared with older tools. That said, I liked the beefy Philips driver.

I got a Micra too because my wife fell in love with mine. It arrived today, advertised as "new and pristine but not in the bubble pack" by an ebay seller with 100% feedback. I got a dirty tool with rust, obviously well used and the tweezers were broken off. The ebay photo is of a brand new tool with all the tools unfolded EXCEPT the tweezers. You can just see the edge of a complete tweezer though so they are there on the pictured tool. Odd the attempt to hide the tweezers in the photo then getting a tool without them. Sellers policy is no returns. This should get interesting and I've already contacted them and awaiting a reply.

I had the same issue with the Pulse. Added to that was the assymetrical locks which I really couldn't get used to, and the tool didn't stop with me long at all. To me it ranks worse than the SOG Powerlocks with flappy covers for being a nuisance to get the tools in and out of

Got one of my Leatherman knives yesterday, the e302 with plain blade and two drivers. I added the removeable bit kit and it looks like a great tool. I typically use a knife every day more than other tools so this will be my EDC and my Wingman or Charge will be in my briefcase or bag.
Actually, I loved the e302 so much I hunted down a second one as a backup!

Got my Core on Thursday and it looks as if it has never been used. I know the locking system does not get a lot of love here but it looks like a very capable tool. This one is going to be kept in the kitchen for everyday household tasks so the tool box can stay in the basement.

Very nice tool. I like the long knife on it.
I also found a nice Core a couple of weeks ago.
I have the small Kick since before so i guess I have to look for the Blast now. ::)

My latest acquisition is an old Leatherman multitool of the original design. It didn't come with the leather sheath, and I don't know it's exact age.
My favorite everyday carry is a Charge TTI. I keep a Surge in the car, and I keep a Wenger 580 on my keychain.

I don't have anything in tactical black or "gunblack" as I call it. It seems like it might show scratches more easily, become harder to find if lost, and I worry about blackening my hands, as it did when I used to blacken my own handmade tools with a yellow acetylene flame years ago. I'm sure it's it's a much more stable finish nowadays, but I'd still choose a metallic finish any day.
Black Oxide is actually a great feature. When done right it will not come off on your hands. I have carried a BO Wave for a while now and it never made my hands black, and despite my best efforts I can't seem to really put a scratch in it. It is showing wear over time but I think worn BO tools are 8)
To top it all off, I don't have any annoying surface rust on my Wave like a lot of Leatherman tools get.

if you have a look at the PST chronology thread you should be able to work out a rough age if you are interested. :)

I kind of expected a better file and some scissors, but I guess you can't have everything. I'll be more impressed when my Kick pocket clips arrive, so I can take the Rebar apart and smooth out the fit. The tools and pliers are far too hard open, right out of the box.

Does it have the date stamp on the inside of the handle? I'm not sure when they started the date stamping but it had to be in the late 80s or early 90s IIR.
*edit- Looks like the chronology project thread shows November 92 the date codes were added. So, if you have no date codes, it may be pre-92? :think:

Nice score. I use mine as it actually has the right basic tools for my preferred EDC! :)
Yeah, I really wanted one of the PST's, and this one has the diamond file, which even has the hook sharpener (I thought that was neat). I was also interested in the old school scissors as well. Overall, I wanted to have one of the more old school original, classic styles to handle and enjoy. I really like the classic look, and overall do not mind tools being on the inside as that means they are secure and protected. And as an added bonus (and part of the reason I ended up getting this one), it is from the year I graduated high school, so that's kind of neat to me :D

^ Extra cool points then :tu:
There's nothing like the classic look and feel of the older Leatherman models. :tu:
Yup :D I wish I had been introduced to Leathermans back when I was that age or younger so that I could now have one that I could say I have had for like 20 years and have that history. Now I'll have to wait until I'm an old man to be able to say anything like that :)

On topic, I got a Leatherman freestyle the other day, and I just pulled the trigger on a BO blast with Cap crimper and a new micra.
Post by: Buzzbait on January 14, 2013, 04:56:53 AM
The BO Wave is to take the place of the regular Wave I kept in my backpack. It was a great tool, but I just had too many rust problems with it. Hopefully, the black oxide coating will prevent the rust.
The Style PS and Squirt PS are both in the running for my new fishing vest multitool. It needs to cut fishing line and remove hooks from sunfish and trout. I have a feeling that the Style PS, with its superior fit and finish, better retention system, and larger scissors, will get the nod.

This tool is a thing of beauty :cry:
It even says "Leatherman USA" on the pliers and knife tang, which is cool :tu:
I wish I could post pics, but I'm at work right now. Plus, I don't have the means to do so at home either, unfortunately. I've tried posting pics before, but I kept getting told that the file size was too big or something along those lines, so I'm not sure what to do. I was doing it from my wife's smartphone (I don't have my own yet). Does the Tapatalk app fix this perhaps?
I'm very impressed with it though :salute: It's too bad the tools don't lock, but as a positive side to that, it makes the ruler nicer as it's not obstructed by the locking mechanism/release buttons. Nice sleek, classic look that I love :D :drool:

I've been on a roll. I picked up a BO Wave, Squirt PS4 and a Style PS yesterday.I'd totally agree with using any of those for fishing, The size and weight is just about right, but remember to tether it to yourself with a cord.
The BO Wave is to take the place of the regular Wave I kept in my backpack. It was a great tool, but I just had too many rust problems with it. Hopefully, the black oxide coating will prevent the rust.
The Style PS and Squirt PS are both in the running for my new fishing vest multitool. It needs to cut fishing line and remove hooks from sunfish and trout. I have a feeling that the Style PS, with its superior fit and finish, better retention system, and larger scissors, will get the nod.

As of about 15 minutes ago, my brand spanking new 0997 PST II! :woohoo:
This tool is a thing of beauty :cry:
It even says "Leatherman USA" on the pliers and knife tang, which is cool :tu:
I wish I could post pics, but I'm at work right now. Plus, I don't have the means to do so at home either, unfortunately. I've tried posting pics before, but I kept getting told that the file size was too big or something along those lines, so I'm not sure what to do. I was doing it from my wife's smartphone (I don't have my own yet). Does the Tapatalk app fix this perhaps?

Oh good then, I will have to see if I can sneak that app onto my wife's phone. >:D In a few months (when I'm due for upgrade availability) I hope to have my own. Thanks for the info man :salute:

Yep. I'm looking to use maybe one of these on the d-ring on my fishing vest.
Post by: Monrogue on January 14, 2013, 06:55:17 PM
Man, I'm loving this thing :drool: I know it is sort of "primitive" in comparison to my Rebar, Charge and Spirit, but it's a classic beauty and is still a very functional multitool. :cheers: :tu:

The Pulse is close, but not quite like the non-locking models.

While I do prefer locking blades/tools, I can't say that it's always a necessity for my uses. I don't put them through any real heavy/hard use, so for the most part, locks aren't essential IMO of course :)
I definitely plan on posting pics as soon as I have the capability to do so (not sure when exactly that will be though :-[)

That's a pretty cool contraption. I've seen these tons of times but just didn't know what they did :think: Didn't realize it was retractable until I went to the Maxped site.
Post by: Monrogue on January 14, 2013, 08:11:50 PM
Also, the "font" or whatever is different on each side. Most noticeably the letters with round edges. For example, the "O"s on the back side are a sort of hexagonal style instead of simply oval. Not sure why that is either.
One more: the back side "LEATHERMAN TOOL" has a slight hiccup of bit or extra space between the "T" and "H" so that it looks almost like "LEAT HERMAN TOOL". The space isn't quite that bad, but it is noticeable. All non-issues though ;)

There's a PST timeline thread which might help - quite a few oddities along the way IIRC.
If there's any place you get to go on about the minutia of a specific tool, MTO it is... rave on :tu:
I saw that earlier and posted a question asking if the PST II is included in the project or if it was just the PST exclusively, but have not heard back yet. That's where I saw the long list of changes the PST underwent over the years.
Yeah, I have read many topics/posts here and figured I was in good company :salute: :cheers:

Congrats on the PST II. I got one this summer from Sazabi, and I love it! It's been my most carried Leatherman for a while now. :tu: I think it'll see some belt time tomorrow.....
Thanks man :salute: Yeah it's awesome. I love that diamond file. The only thing it's missing is the awl. I love the design of those scissors, but I carry a SAK that covers scissors, so I would rather have the awl. I may consider filing down the medium flathead to an awl, and then I'll be "awl" set :rofl: Sorry, couldn't resist ::)

What do you think about the locking system on the ST200 Tom? I'm still trying to get use to it on the Pulse but it belongs to the mrs so I don't get to play with it much :think: :rofl: She won't share!¡! :rant: :rofl: :rofl: : rofl:

It certainly is different. I don't mind it really, I think it's a bit easier than the locks on the original Supertool. Not sure if it's the locks or that the tool just needs some oil, but deployment is a bit stiff. I'm oiling it right now, we shall see.

So, I just received my replacement Wave and it has a couple issues itself. On of them is the driver not having a large enough slot for the lock to really engage, which I fixed with the broken wave's file (without dissembling it!). The second issue is the bolt-screws that hold the blades on which rotate with my serrated blade. Does this just go away over time?
I'm not sure about that - having to immediately mod your own tool to get it working doesn't sound good :-\
Is it worth sending it back again?!

I think I would really like the KF4, but I would miss the scissors as well. I would prefer to have those in place of the saw as I find scissors more useful than a saw on a MT of that size.

The Freestyle an Charge were at a reasonable price for this part of the world but the Flair was really expensive.
But that odd bird has been on my wishlist since i started lurking around this forum and discovered it.
I´m really looking forward to get it.

Post by: Chinese Buffet on February 22, 2013, 03:56:18 AM
December 2000. Nice vintage. So how did you get a thirteen year old PST that has never been used?
Long story short I got a bit lucky on this one. I bought it from a guy on a buy / sell / trade forum. I asked him if he could share the history of this PST and he said he received it as a gift for working as a long time technical trainer with a well known North American auto manufacture. He said he never really believed in MTs so it just sat there untouched for all these years. What you don't see in the picture is on the other side of the tool there is an engraving of the auto manufacture name / logo. I love it when I find a nice tool and with it comes an interesting story.

The Wave is sweet. For whatever reason I got rid of my first one pretty quickly, and didn't really have a chance to give it a shot. The pocket clip on this one makes it even more useful to me. :tu: The Sidekick? Not bad, not a Wave for sure. If I find a Wingman for a decent price I'm going to be swapping some parts between the two.

BO Cap Crimper Fuse, Orange Fuse, Custom Camo Fuse, Knifeless Fuse, BO Camo Fuse, Old lock lever Fuse
From Bottom left to right:
Camo Fuse, New Lock Fuse, Cap Crimper Fuse, BO Fuse, and Gold plated Fuse.

I would think if you wanted a full set, you would have to look closely at the two different lever lock styles. You can tell the difference between a first generation Fuse and a second generation Fuse from the locking levers. Second gen has a gap when viewed from the sides...which is an improvement over the older style.
Hope this helps you Captain Spaulding

Me too, originally, but I've found I can do without scissors on something like the Rebar, especially since I carry a SAK anyway ;) I've found that those nice wire cutters work just fine for scissor snipping type tasks (tags, threads). Of course, those won't work for things like cutting paper or trimming whiskers. If you don't cut much paper or have any whiskers to trim, then I suppose you may have less need for scissors. I used to be heavily pro scissors, but over the past few weeks, I've seen that I don't actually need them as much as I thought.

Or I should say 3rd, because one of them turned out to be a PST II.
Think it is a saberpoint pre 92.
It´s like taking a chance buying from auctions because of blury phonepictures showing really nothing.
The fun part is that none of them are not completely the same.

From what I've gathered in various conversations here, it seems like it's somewhat rare (anyone correct me if I'm mistaken here). What is the difference between that and the regular XE6, other than that obvious little pruner-like blade (which is sweet btw ;))? I knew of that blade on the Pro, but I don't remember what other differences there were, if any.

Oh interesting. Where are they located? Just curious as I have the XE6 and am trying to picture how that blade and any other extras fit into it. I don't carry it at all really anymore. It was my second ever multitool, but I wasn't aware of it's dimensions and weight, and being less educated on these things at that time, I just went ahead and ordered it as it looked cool at the time. It's a decent MT, but it has a bit too much going on for the Juice line's perceived pocketability (imho anyway). The S2 and Kf4 are good pocket MTs for me.

Its in like a rubber grommet.
Huh, that's different. Yeah, it is thick, and for a Juice, I think it's a bit too much. The Kf4 is as thick/heavy as I prefer for a "pocket size" line like the Juices. The XE6 is more like a full sized MT forced into the body of a Juice, considering it's weight and quantity of tools. Still, if you are one to belt carry, then it's probably not an issue. And it's still fun to fiddle with it on occasion ;)

The TTi is very nice indeed. However, the Wave is basically the same thing functionally other than the cutting hook, cap crimper, main blade steel and the handle scales of course. The Wave is probably around half the cost of a TTi too, so when (not if, when ;)) the time comes that you decide to get one of them, it may be best to try the Wave first. I have both, as well as a Charge AL, and I must say that despite all of them being awesome, it is a bit redundant as they are all functionally the same thing. It's not so bad if you have various places to strategically place them around your home or vehicle, but since you're 13, you probably don't have any of that yet ;) One benefit of your age is that you can probably ask for some of your wish list MTs/SAKs for b-days :tu:
I also have the XE6, and that is nice too. It's a bit bulky and heavy for it's supposed size class as it weighs as much as a Blast or Rebar. It's solid though, and has a lot of function, but it's just too much for what I think the Juice line is intended to be. The Surge and the others you mentioned I do not own, but I hear the Surge is rather large and heavy, and is mostly similar to the Wave as well with a couple differences.
Don't take this as me trying to discourage you at all, just offering any info that may be helpful before you dive in ;) I wish I had found this place earlier on in my MT/SAK purchasing phase, because I probably could have learned a lot and saved some money (or gone the opposite way and blown even more cash ::)). Looking back, I purchased several Leathermans in my first few months of becoming interested in them, and I probably could have done without a few of them now that I know what I know. It has taken me some time to learn what I really want in a MT/SAK, so several of them are just sitting in a drawer mostly unused at this point. Like they say, hindsight is 20/20 :shrug:

Picked up what was advertised as a Charge TTi off a UK classifieds website but when it arrived it had a 154 cm blade and no gut hook, so it's a Ti right? Even happier if it is :)Nice catch ! :tu:

I traded off my Skeletools with the exception of the Discontinued PE Skeletool. I am thinking of trading it off though. I keep going back and forth on it. :twak:Whatever you do, don't rely on just the pocket clip to keep it secure. :facepalm:

I've been carrying mine for months using only the clip and it stays put perfectly. I don't think I've heard of any accounts of it escaping until yours, in fact. The clip is thin to be sure, but it's also long and the Skeletool sits pretty deep.

Here's a 14 year old new Flair.
Picked up today and noticed it had a loose washer inside the tool, makes me guessing it wasn't installed right.
Could someone verify the Flair has two washers?

Newest as of right now is a mint ST200 from a trade here. I've honed down the lock levers for comfort and it hasn't left my side since it arrived yesterday. I managed to stretch a 2004 Wave leather sheath around it by getting the leather damp then leaving the tool in it for about an hour. Very nice way to carry it!
That's one way to do it :think: Probably the best way. Great job!¡!

Thanks! I'm doing it right now with an old blast sheath that i don't have a tool for anymore. My current blast came with a new sheath. This one took some work, but it might work out good.

While I didn't think the PST and other older LMs were lame, I know what you mean in a way. The PST is a rather simplistic MT by design and function, but that's where its charm lies. There's just something about that simple, classic design that I love, and the tool actually is functional and useful. It's not too bulky or heavy, and slips right into a pocket no problem. I love my PSTII (carrying this week as a matter of fact) :tu:

There is no rust or wear on the tools or plier. But when I should check the tools they were pretty much completely stuck especially on the mainknife side.
I found some rust around the pivot to the tools.
My theory is that somebody got just a little moisture in the tool at an early stage and when the tools were hard to get out never used it again.
I´v washed in soap and wd-40 but´s it´s still very stiff. I´ll let in a jar overnight with a lot of wd-40 and see tomorrow. Found out that handling sharp unused knifes and tools that are stuck is dangerous as I cut myself twice.

I have a Genus-specific question I didn't know where else to post:
The handle containing the tools is pretty loose [mainly in turning]...is there a way to tighten that up? Because I don't believe I'm going to send it in to LM any time soon. At any rate, if there is a way of tightening that handle, I don't see it. Definitely appreciate any insights fellow LM/Genus owners may have.

Work has been kind enough to send me to Nebraska on a course.
It would be rude not to take advantage of US pricing so i have just picked myself up a rather lovely Crunch. Currently clamping it on every solid looking surface in my hotel room!
i love it and would be totally doing the same. :tu:

i'm busy thinking up mods to the surge, of course (i hate that serrated knife, would be fine for food but i don't need it for tools), but that led me to this forum and thusly to the flair, which is my first 'collected' multi-tool, but which is threatening to become EDC for me, just because it is so darn cute.

Also while in hiding from the MT.o I bought some golden oldies. A ST and BO ST200. I must say the ST tools while locked have no play at all. I mean NO PLAY. Pretty sweet to feel that absolute rigidness using the tools.. That thumb shredding ST200 was a beast to unlock. Its loosened up a bit after usage and is a fun tool to keep in the ever growing rotation of MT's.
Please enjoy the crappy Iphone pics.

Well, I've finally quoted myself. I guess the reason no one responded was because the answer was *so* obvious; loosen screw, reposition tool handle, retighten. It could use another washer.
I just wish I was a tad better at blade sharpening. It's exhausting when you don't know what you're doing. Still, I know someday I'll figure it out. :o
It's a damned nice tool. Can't wait to use it.

The big lot of LM MTs from the TSA has produced a lot of gems. This is one of them.
A pretty rare BO charge XTi, not one but 2! One is in pretty rough shape but I have plans for it. This one is going to the vault!

Right. I really like that it's rather robust like the Supertool 300, yet it's slim and lightweight for easy pocket carry (for me anyway). I'm also a fan of the classic Leatherman design, so that makes it even better for me. Enjoy :cheers:

So far I'm satisfied with the gripping power, and the teeth seem stronger than those on my Blast. I also like that they are spring loaded.
Pinch cutters aren't my favorite but these aren't the worst that I've used.
Pocket clip could be stronger in tension, but it is robust.
Scissors are just ok.
Not the greatest Leatherman but the price was right, and its still higher quality than the El Cheapo's. I think I like it. Time will tell.
Drivers cover the basics well enough.

Good to hear. I gotta put it up against the blast pliers later on. That's interesting to hear. My biggest gripe are the drivers on there. many times the Phillips fell short on odd jobs around the house. keep that puppy dry too. Its extra function is rust.

Yeah, the scissors are nice and beefy compared to the scrawny ones we get now. I believe they are the same as the ones on the Original Wave (one of the other retired Leathermans on my wish list, along with maybe a PST just to have both). That and the fact it has the diamond file with that sharpening groove is a bonus. I like the diamond file, and I think the ideal PST hybrid for me would be the PST with that diamond file as I usually would have a SAK with scissors anyway.

Oh well it's still a cool Zippo :) Yeah I just looked it up on SKS and saw it there. A bit too pricey for my taste, and I'd have to not touch them or take them out of the box (which also looks nice). Plus I already have a Micra and Rebar, so I wouldn't have much use for them, although if I had plenty of $$ to spare, I'd definitely get it just to add to my collection. It's a very nice looking set, and would be a nice display type set.

Going to team it up for EDC. Resqme which lives on my car key, utili-key will live with the house keys when it comes in.

Got my Style CS yesterday. Mainly bought it out of brand loyalty. They are kind of pricey. But looks great. Very nifty. Not sure how useful. Has a very nice "snap" to it though. :salute: Scissors are much better than :sak: IMHO but could be tighter. Bottle opener will get some emergency use. Nail file tool is surprisingly good as a phillips Screwdriver. :tu: Tweezers are ok. But I do have the same gripes about the blade as everyone else.You might be surprised on the Skeletool CX. I carried one for months and the tasks I was able to perform were ridiculously many. I highly recommend this tool - you won't be disappointed.

Today at a flea market, I picked up a new in the blister pack PST ll (dated 0301)for $15. The pack hah moisture in it, there was a spot of rust on the pliers and the leather sheath had some of the green gunk on it. They both cleaned up nice. This PST ll has the large plier head with Leatherman USA cast into it.

Yeah, $25 for two brand new items isn't a bad deal at all:))

Yup, but only temporarily - I've made this photo in the middle of modding attempt. It failed, and now PST is back to it's old self. He has got a thorough tools cleaning for a consolation :D

Thanks. I was expecting him to say $70 so when he said $30 it was a no brainer for me as I have wanted one since first looking at LM. Flea Markets are hit and miss for me but the hits keep me going back.

does not close properly. also there is play on both sides of the tool. i realize stuff sticks out of the tool a little, but still...

when it does close, you can see the strain it puts on the snap, and one side bulges on the top and bottom.

Agonistes it looks like the wrong sheath did you pick it up used? Then again I could be a moron :tu:
no, it's new but she had to rummage around with the box and when i got it home it had two instruction booklets for a crunch, a small booklet of SOG products, and the product registration paper. they have their display all laid out on river stones in a display case so she probably did give me the wrong holder. she didn't sell me the display model, but i can see how easy the mistake is if you dont know much about the products. i'll go ask about it tomorrow.

Yea im sure if you show em that they will figure out something . It almost looks like it fits a wave or something of that size. I got lucky when I bought my surgevat bass pro it was a display model and the just told me go pick one off the shelf (they stock leatherman sheaths) so who knows you might get the one you want.
Sure could use a Bass Pro Shop around here. Lucky dude you are FordMech. It would be great to pick and choose the sheath you like. Ive tried the Tractor Supply store and the Army/Navy shop around here and no luck buying a sheath on its own. I was looking for this LM grey nylon sheath for a few sheathless MT's.
I do hope your new Crunch finds a holster Agonistes. I wonder what was given to you. Here is a link to the LM site for Premium leather sheath. A Premium nylon sheath fits the Crunch as well. The retail #'s are listed incase you have to walk the clerk thru it.
http://www.leatherman.com/accessories/product/Premium_Leather_Sheath_I
http://www.leatherman.com/accessories/product/Premium_Nylon_Sheath_I
The internal capacity with the standard leather sheaths differs a bit,but not by much.4" x 1.5" x .6" and 4.2" x 1.4" x .8"
I'd mix up the sheaths cause you really cant tell any difference at a glance. Before my molle sheath EDC carry and pocket clips, the standard leather sheaths l & V were the EDC. They housed the Kicks, Fuse and SS Blast at that time. The Blasts screws would catch the bottom rivets of the l-4" sheath. I always thought it was a QC blunder till I looked it up. Took a picture of the two standard leather sheaths for compairison. Also the grey nylon sheath im lookin for around town.
I hope this helps out. Or if its already taken of im sure someone can make use of this. Its way off topic so moderators please move if need be.

I have ~100 Grams of 18k Yellow Gold I am debating on using as the scales on the TTI, or make a key ring out of it, or a combination of the two.
The 24k plated one I see offered looks great, but I would want it to be Black and Gold. So I have been debating on wether to 18k Plate the non tool parts on the knife, then coat the blades, pliers, tools in a black finish of some sort.
On my 2013 Charge TTI, I started the modding->
1. I took the screws out of the blade mounting point/ plier pivot point and inverted them so the actual "screw" is on the side of each of the blades. This serves the purpose of being able to adjust the tension on the blade for easier or harder deployment of the blades while maintaining the desired tension on the oposite side.
2. Anodized the titanium scales "Gold"
In the pics of the "Gold", the Wire Ingot Mould I have only does ~75g / pour or you end up with a huge mess and the ingot becomes un manageable to work with.
In the Anodized Gold Aluminum pill vial, I can fit $1k in $100's. The Ring is Copper. The Pendant is Silver. Keys are mostly brass, cuff key is stainless steel if I remember correctly.
In anodizing the multitool scales, I did my wedding band and my TISSOT T-TOUCH EXPERT, just to see what colors I could produce. Not pictured is the set of Snow Peak fork, knife, spoon, spork, that I anodized also.

There is not a date on the outside of the package. In the storyline it mentions being 25 years from 1975. So I'm assuming 2000. I haven't opened it yet to check the date code on the Crunch. Yes the packaging on this is one is 8) and the main reason I bought it. I didnt really need another Crunch. :D

Oh that's cool. I bet you make it sharper than the Juice awl. Those aren't sharp at all, although I found it makes for a good nail cleaner, but I'd rather have a sharp awl.

I have no money so I have no new tools, but I did glet a set of rebar handles the other day and I smurfed up the whole job when I tried to put a blast plier in them. I need something to tighten the damn pivots without screwing them up.
So I guess you could say I have a blast-bar, but it doesn't work.
I was wondering if you ever got around to putting that together.

It's together alright, but I still haven't finished it. I just need to figure out how to get everything together without galling the knurled heads on those pivots. I only have one spare set so I have to get it right!

What im currently building, i plan to use plasti dip black paint to cover the handle section and a rebar head plier, match to a 2012 wave body, cant wait to see if the result are going to match the drawing

so i build this today and it wasnt as easy as i thought, i paint it but because it stainless steel polish it didnt hold as well as i thought it would , i ll post some photo tomorrow, also the rebar head , doesnt fit that easely in the wave body, it needed some serious mods and grinding, lets just say you better know the proper tightnening spec of the tool before taking it aparts,

This morning I picked up a mint PST (no date stamp) with a mint sheath for $10 at a local flea market.

Wow, $10 for a mint PST? That's an awesome find indeed :tu:

that is a steal for ten bucks. Ive paid ten bucks for a new PST sheath alone. What a deal. That Pulse is sweet. Id even frame the box and hang it on the wall. I'd like to have a Pulse but I own a ST200 and Im not a big fan of the lock release on it. Still the Pulse is a very nice multi and would be a fine addition to the retired LM collection.
@ducttapetech The Surge is really becoming my favorite LM. The outboard tools are a big deal to me. The sissors alone can stand next to Victorinox sissors IMO. If they can snip paracord with no effort their a winner to me. Cant wait for the new version of Surge.
I wonder what mod Eric is gonna do to the 30th anniversary tools? Blunt nose Micra?

I won't be doing anything to those tools ;)
I have a bit of a disdain for the Micra, never found any of the tools that useful (for me at least)

I think the mini tool is a killer little plier its simple and functional and the fold out handles are great. the wave is also pretty sweet but I don't get why all the flat drivers, tho I love the larger scissors. I have a new wave and love that tool so I can imagine this older wave being much the same minus the exchangeable bits which I do use often. great lines and slimmer in some respect too. Im pretty stoked to have 2 retired LMs an now I don't want to use them. :-\
Nice score man :tu: Did you also get these at the flea market? I've always been a little curious about the Mini as it would be a good option for having 2 sets of pliers without the second one taking up a bunch of space. I want an Original Wave as well, and I'm hoping to make that my next purchase. I know that the flat drivers seem a bit much, but maybe that's all that would work in the space at the time? I think I'll probably file one of them down to be an awl as I don't need 4 flatheads. Either the small or medium one as I want to keep the large and tiny one. I do know that the retired Leathermans can be addictive. I also want a Pulse.

Post by: Aloha on August 12, 2013, 04:56:42 PM
i posted what i found with some quickly taken pictures. i think the mini would be a great 1st or 2nd (backup) plier with a SAK to compliment it of course. its a cute little MT that's feels very sturdy in hand. i wish the case was with it but im sure i can find one on fleabay. the wave is pretty cool too mine is dated 0303A and seems in great very light used condition. it didn't have any rust at all which was nice. im not sure what to do with it in terms of using or not using. i guess ive turned into a bit of a collector in some regards as i now feel like i also want to hunt down LM retired tools. we'll see where this goes because as easily as it is to plunk down $$$ for items on fleabay in love the hunt even more and even more than that is getting them for dirt cheap. i got both for $25, $20 for the wave and $5 for the mini.

Yes the flat drivers are a bit redundant. Then again it wouldnt be an old Leatherman. The old Waves have a great compact feel for a full size multi. I love the aesthetics on the old wave. It was a user when I got it. Great condition for a user. It was a Paramedics tool that passed away.Myself a first responder I feel the need to keep that tool in use cause it could have saved someone.
I havent spent much time with the mini tool. Thats the wifes LM. I onlt get a hold of it for pictures for the forum. It would be a great companion to a SAK. Thats a good idea Aloha. If you decide to put a split ring on the mini be careful. The wife crunched a few opening and closing the mini.
+1 scoring the tools at your flea market. Thats gotta be a cool feeling finding retired LM's in the flesh. Ebay hunts are fun,but a physical find seems more rewarding.

Every now and then someone pops their head into my office asking if I have pliers, or a phillips drive, or some other tool they can borrow for a couple of minutes. I hate loaning out one of my edc tools, as they tend to be gone longer than just a few minutes, so I keep this one in my backpack for those occations. (and sometimes I need to use it my self too :D )

I found a used crunch on ebay. It had some rust but after a little polishing it looks like new. The blade is in a bad shape though and i am going to replace it by something else. Not sure if i really need a blade on the crunch so it's still up to debate what tool to put in.
Hmmm... Would scissors fit?

picked up a wingman at the hardware store; i swear i only went in for paint. but it is a nifty little tool, i used it later to open paint cans (the one thing i have used leatherman flatheads for almost exclusively). i'm loving the box opener. i want one on every tool i own.
That's the only useful tool on the Wingman IMHO
Post by: JAfromMn on August 15, 2013, 06:42:58 PM
I have not used it yet.
all I can say about it is that I think it may be the smoothest opening Leatherman I've owed.
I also like the size and weight.
it should be a great tool.

Got my freestyle from Monrogue today, so this now completes my skeletool setup, but I noticed one thing, the freestyle has a 50/50 blade, and the skeletools is just plain, so I just might swop them out, only one prob, I only have one #8 torx, so it's going to be a little hard,, JR

@ detron the capt said it best " I love getting a new tool that you are instantly happy with." I knew Monrogues MTs would be solid, my wave however gets the crap kicked out of it daily but that's why I love it.
funny how Jerseydevil got an AL today too. as ive said ill eventually get one I just have to quench this retired MT thirst first.
Though I mean this as a joke, the sad fact that it is possible might put a little fear into you.
retired tools will always be retired, but current tools will become retired tools at some point. be careful you do not ever get to buy what is out there at good prices. the Juice KF4 cost just as much, if not more now than when it was first out. The Genus and other similar tools cost more now than when they were released.
Let's say Rebar production stops due to some QC issues that cannot be fixed. what do you think would happen to those prices? :think:
Post by: Aloha on August 17, 2013, 08:32:16 AM
im not solely buying for their future value, honestly if i was solely interested in value or potential value id go after the al mars or Kershaw a100 type tools. sure they may or may not be of value into the future, they may loose value in terms of what i paid for them but my kids will know they meant something to me and that is important. hell my kids may have a fire sale once im gone and give these things away.
every tool seems to have been purchased with a purpose in mind other than monetary or projected value at least coming from the original owners point of view ( in most cases ). the tools were bought or gifted to serve and hopefully they did. it would be cool if all tools were passed on to someone like a kid or friend but in a thread that was recently posted about who gets our collections it was interesting especially from the owners of large collections. im starting with the currently retired tools as an homage to these tools and their service.
i love the idea of Chakos fathers Pulse and what it meant to him and as a result what it means to Chako. there can be no value placed on that tool im sure in his mind.
Bensasupertool is much the same if i remember correctly in a tool he owns. it was a tool that belonged to a 1st responder who passed away and he carries in much the same regard.
Post by: detron on August 17, 2013, 08:44:09 AM
I was told a long time ago by a father of a school mate if I am going to collect I should collect what i love regardless of the value, be it today or in the future. he was a stamp collector himself and was getting his son into stamp collecting. I really never thought of "collecting" till I got my used charge TTi. I considered myself more a user and I was just acquiring these tools to use eventually. I began to wonder about the stories these tools had and what they have done and seen and meant to their original owners.

agree 100%. monetary value has no meaning to me, however cost can be a factor. the sad part is i want a mini, might have got one cheaper years ago. my post might have been different than my intent, cost, not value was the point. I bought a cybertool 41 in 2006 for $60. now it is over 80. To me the value is the same. but I am glad I got it then.
Post by: Aloha on August 17, 2013, 09:10:32 AM
its kinda cool looking at the 3 retired tools i have: MINI from 94, WAVE from 03, and ST from 01. none cost very much and im sure i paid less than what they were new. heck $25 for both the wave and mini, i got the ST for less than $30. im not sure where exactly im going with this honestly and i have changed my mind from my initial considerations. im still having fun and its all very affordable for me now so ill keep collecting.
now in 30 years my kids will have the decision of what to do with these hunks of metal. it would be great if they all fetch a bundle. for now they make me happy seeing their shiny bodies and like my youngest who likes to open and close them i enjoy that too.

it is quite a lovely tool. i really was surprised how compact it is and how great it feels in the hand. the locking system is fine tho i can see where the current lock systems are easier but this is a superb tool no less. i am smitten to have landed such a great example of this tool.

The Juice XE6 arrived from Monrogue. Very fine tool. Its gonna be a great light EDCer. The tool load for its size is a marvel. Nice grippy teeth at the needle nose was a surprise. Its still stiff in the plier head as well. I guess it didnt make it into Monrogues strict rotation to many times. Thanks again for the sweet deal. Happy to add it to the collection.
Yeah, there's a lot packed into that thing :tu: And no, it didn't make the cut for my rotation ;) I really didn't use it much, other than the first couple weeks I had it before I got the next MT I liked the looks of. Hope you enjoy it man :D

One thing is certain, the texture of the diamond file is finer than any of us(me included) gave it credit for. So unless you're running around in a lace, seethrough babydoll nightie. the SX won't dig throught your clothes.Though it has taken a while, the Leatherman Skeletool SX has just arrived 5 minutes ago :mail:

wow those are lovely as well DRBAHN. im after a sideclip and have a BO PST non CC and a PST that im hoping is 80's model on the way. those are some great finds :tu:Thank you very much, Aloha. :) I have never attached value to the Pulse/PST/PST II until a few weeks ago when I got the offer for this mint Pulse. I felt in love with it immediately and now I feel this strong and urgent need of buying more of the older LM. :o :D
I would love to own a BO PST or Mini-Tool or any other of the older models myself but unfortunately they seem to never have been sold here in Germany. :( So you have got a great score with your BO PST. :tu:
You are right btw, ROCKER LOCKS ROCK! :multi: Very cool mechanism and imo it is really fun to unlock a tool this way. :D
Post by: Monrogue on August 21, 2013, 03:11:12 PM
@monrogue thank you, im trying to get what I can while the getting is good. I was a bit impatient on the BO PST tho and could have waited but it looked to good to pass on. both the tools I got today are in awesome condition and seem to have either been carried only or very slightly used. I couldn't be happier with both. ROCKER LOCKS ROCK
I can be impatient like that too. Sometimes you just gotta grab 'em while you have the chance to do so. Glad the tools were in good condition. That's always a chance we take as well. So you really like those locks huh? That type of lock seems to have rather mixed reviews around here. I've never handled one myself (yet ;)), so I'm not sure how they work, but I'm curious to find out. Someday I will probably get me a Pulse, but that could be a long ways off. I want to get the original Wave first. I just have a hard time saving that amount of money as I spend it up quickly :twak:
Post by: Aloha on August 21, 2013, 05:23:36 PM
@monrogue the locks are pretty neat and mine tho stiff operated smoothly if that makes sense. the pulse is really a small tool tho the size of my original wave more or less. slim and sleek i guess with a great tools on board. the original wave is also slender as are the outside tools. i really am liking the older one a lot. the BO PST non Cap Crimper seemed like a good buy tho not great and i figured wtf. i worked so much in the past several months i treated myself to that one. i have no problem saving but i need to be a little more patient and wait for great deals. no regrets ii just love a great deal.

Yeah, I'll have to try them out for myself when I finally get a Pulse. I like the slim, sleek Leatherman classic style, so I would love the Pulse. I love my PST and PSTII, but just wish they locked, so the Pulse is a natural fit for that. Still, the PSTs are great for pocket carry, and they really are sufficient without locks as long as you're mindful of that fact. I have a problem with both of those >:D Once I get a little chunk saved up, I'm looking on here and Ebay to see what I can find for the amount I have saved. Sometimes there are some good deals, and sometimes you just have to jump at the chance to get something, even if it seems risky. Unfortunately for me, I prefer NIB for the Original Wave and Pulse, but I don't think that's going to work out for me considering how expensive they run. A used but in very good condition tool is acceptable, but it's hard to find them for an affordable price most times.
Post by: Dr. Bahn on August 21, 2013, 09:32:33 PM
@DrBahn I had been eyeing the Pulse and the prices are pretty off the charts for NIB. I too don't place a monetary value on them they are just so darn cool. The Pulse is a great little tool and I seriously love them ROCKER LOCKS, they are fun! I haven't received the PSTs so I cannot wait to get them in my hands. I too feel the need to acquire these older tools as well.How much do you pay for a NIB Pulse in the US? I paid for each of my two Pulse about $89 here in Germany. Not cheap but it could be worse I guess. And in Germany we generally pay (much) more for US products than we would do in the US itself.
I like the slim, sleek Leatherman classic style, so I would love the Pulse.Same here and I am also sure that you would like the Pulse. ;)

I'm sure I would ;) Are you saying you paid $89 for both Pulses together? :o That's a good price based on what I see here on Ebay. I see NIB Pulses around that price or higher, mostly over $100 unfortunately. That would take me a long time to save for, unless it was an unexpected gift or something happened to cause me to have extra money to put in my savings.

Oh ok. I was considering having you send me one if a NIB was around $50 ;) So you paid around the same as some new ones go for here, and cheaper than several I've seen, so you should be happy with the prices you got as far as I can tell anyway. I hope by the time I can get one there is a good deal that coincides with my timing ;)

A few minutes ago I found out that the usual retail price for a NIB Pulse was about $120 here in Germany. :o

( usual disclaimer; I have nothing to do with the seller or have never done any business with them I never bought anything from them )
used ones seem to be mostly put up for auction. ive seen several NIB but $100-$150 US is a bit steep for me.

as you can see I also got a Paratool as well ( finally ). this and my Skeletool will be rotated as my day off carry. I really like this tool a lot, I had fun just opening and closing it. just need to tighten the plier a bit is all as all implements were in great shape and sharp.

I cant stop looking at them myself. I want an early model one like hopefully you have coming. I think I have a mid to late 80's SS PST based off the Chronology thread. The BO one I have im a bit stumped as to the date. they seem so hard to date as I read through all the pages several times :ahhh and still am confused.
I want one with the 423 pat # and a PST with no PST markings, ive seen a few and they are intriguing. I hope you got a good one tho they are all pretty bad arse to me.

I need to stop looking as I get tempted too easily >:D The one I have coming has the REG’D TM 1325473, which is listed as when they switched to the saber blade, and the other criteria seem to fit it as well, so I'm in hopes that's what I actually get.

oops I meant to say I want a PST2 not marked PST2 but still having the PST2 implements. I sure do hope you get exactly what you hoped for.
I've got one of those PSTIIs NIB and dated 0997. Nice tool as well. I really like opening and closing it as it's very smooth feeling. I think the older Leathermans were built a little better in some ways.

@ Aloha007: Thanks! Here are a few more pics for size comparison...
This got me thinking... Since we know we have some guys here who have probably every single model of LM ever made, it would be really interesting to see them all side by side (if that's even possible in one pic) for size comparison :think:

I sure do hope you get exactly what you hoped for.The PST 2 I bought from fleabay USA a few days ago is only marked "Leatherman Tool" and not "PST2" like my first one. If I remember right there are still offered some other like this if you are interested. :-)

The brushed finish is pretty sweet and a refreshing change from the polished and BO finish I like so much. The only drawback to the SideClip is the tool load. A bit blah with the 3 flat drivers,but I knew that going into buying it. A file or scissor would have been nice. Oh well. Its gonna be a close mate from here on out. Date stamps 0198,0198,0198 and 0298. :D

The SideClip came real early. The joys of buying local. Excellent used condition IMO. The listing said fair condition with signs of use. the only tool that looked used is the medium flat driver and a few small scratches and wear marks from carry use on the scales. The seller had to be mad or a granny selling of crap in the attic. 24 bucks should be the going rate for all old leathermans. Next to the 12 dollar ST its the best buy ive managed to snag. Its buys like that that makes the collecting fun to do.

I check a local Pawn shop every week or so. Usually they have a pile of junk knives and MT's. Several weeks ago I got a nice Gerber Diesel there for $15. Today I got the best deal I ever got on a Leatherman. Next to the $10 piece of crap knock offs, was a leather Leatherman sheath. In it was a very dirty and slightly rust stained Super Tool------marked $2.99. Both the Super Tool & sheath cleaned up easily, the blades still have the factory edge. I think I'll keep this one in my briefcase.
Bargain :ahhh :ahhh

Yay, the PST came today :mail: All looks well, it's in great condition, with just some scratches on the outside from carry I assume. All the tools look great and barely used, and the blade may very well be a saber point blade :D Anyone correct me if that's incorrect though.

Unfortunately the Phillips screwdriver of the PST has been rounded and can´t really be used anymore. :-[ All other tools are unused or in well conditions. I already wrote LM Germany an email and asked them for a replacement, but since the BO PST hasn´t been offered here in Germany they most likely cannot help me. :cry:
The Flair is NIB and therefore in perfect conditions.
Here a some fast pics:

Another good score there Dr. Bahn :tu: Too bad about the PST's phillips driver. Is there any way to touch it up or something to make it usable?Thank you, Monrogue. :)
I don´t think that you can touch up the Phillips driver somehow. Its four small "blades" are a bit twisted, too. If LM Germany can´t replace it with a BO one, then I will most probably replace it with a silver one. It will be an user anyway since it is not new and the soldier who owned it previously carved some letters and nummers into the coating on the handles on both sides (but you can barely see it). Does anybody know what "A-6979" could mean?
A silver Phillips driver is better than no Phillips driver at all and having an useless tool on it. What do you think?

That is a deal breaker to me (the twisted Philips). I would send it back to the seller :rant:I bought it from fleabay and cannot return it. Other than the Phillips driver the tool is in very good condition and since it was never officially available in Germany, I won´t most likely find one for this great price here again. I can just hope that LM can help me out with a replacement Phillips driver in what color ever.

50/50 vinegar/water lightly wiped onto surface then let air dry and place several dryer sheets into sheath to eliminate the vinegar smell.
baking soda scubbed onto surface and rinsed well then air dry.
activated charcoal place inside a cloth or something porous then place inside sheath should absorb smell.

I looked at both these tool when deciding what to get and ended up with a wave. they are definitely as you describe.

I would really like to see Leatherman make a civilian version of this. I think they'd do very well selling them. I really can't see me having any use for the carbon scraper or the bolt release tool, so I'm trying to find ideas on modding it. :D
I'm going to be carrying my modded Soldier in the sheath so I'll have scissors, can/bottle opener and awl, so I should have my bases covered with that pairing.
One thing I love having is the long bits. How many times have we gone to use our MT's to tighten something, but the bits were too short. I know you could carry a bit kit, but with this having the storage for the two long bits it's one less thing you have to worry about.

It's awesome! I love this model, it's the best one!
I was afraid it was lost too, and I really wanted this model!

It's complete as far as models go, I know there are finishes I haven't got like the camo ones, but as far as I'm aware that is all 7 of the configurations that have been made (please don't tell me I missed one ??? )

BTW, I see your SC2 suffers from different coloured scales too. :D
I wonder why they did that. :shrug:
If you mean different on the SC2, it's a trick of the light both sides are the same colour. The faces of the scales are slightly tilted outward from the center line reflecting light in a different way. If you mean different from the CS4, these two are the same colour, the glacier blue.

Could you check again. :D If you read the thread I linked to till the end, you'll notice that all the other SC2 juices have one scale a slightly different shade of blue. And the SC2's are a bit darker too.

I looked at your thread, you've put a lot of work in there :) and I see what you are saying, but it could be dodgy lighting, or just dodgy eyes on my part but my SC2 and CS4 look to be exactly the same colour. I'll have to have another look in the morning, in better light. I didn't compare them in much detail today, but now you've got me thinking ???

How is the Freestyle? Do you find that it lacks necessary tools? :pok:
It lacks everything I dont really like on the skele. Its a knife first,with the addition of other tools. Thats how I see the Freestyle and Skeletools. The ergos are a little better in my mind than the Skele. The driver on the Skele is a pain when I use the pliers. It finds its way digging into my palm. I think I've pried open more stuff than sscrewed with the Skeletools flat driver. :o I had to get it to try it and I like the Freestyle alot. Besides that my pockets and hip are lined with other shiny metal objects to replace what the Freestyle lacks.

Not correct. The scales changed in the spring of 2011 and the first models still had the old etching on the springs cover. They later added the new etching. Around summer 2011 as far as I can tell. That's why both models withe new print/old etching and new print/new etching are available.

Wow, lots of Juices today! Here's my latest... This is my only Juice, I haven't really made up my mind about it yet. It's not anything I would normally carry as it just seems to small for what I use mt MTs for. This one might end up on the trade page.
:cheers:
Yeah, the good old KF4. I have this place to thank for me ending up with one (and a great member here-xdalaw). I bet you'd get rid of it quickly, depending one what you'd want in trade. It's an awesome Juice imo, with the lack of scissors being the main problem with it (for me).

I've been waiting very patiently (maybe not so much) for the last week waiting on this PST I found for a bargain on ebay. It finally made it to Alaska all the way from Florida!! It's absolutely perfect, I don't think it's ever even been fully opened. Well here are a couple pics.
Excellent score - I think that is one of the older PST's and to get one in that good a condition is a real find. I think (hope) I've got one the same coming too. Was yours from 1bankergirl on ebay by any chance ?

I got that feeling, yes. Also, the 'inner' edge of the Zytel is still a bit sharp, but I just assumed that'll wear down with use, as well.
About modding, I already assumed so. Even though it's got the knurled screws, at least they protrude enough to make them sort of easily unscrewable (for lack of a better word :facepalm: )

The zytel inner edge does benefit from haping a wipe over with some fine emery. As for moddability (it's not just you who can make words up :P) and making it knifeless, I have a Kick and Fuse that'll verify it can be done ;)

I bought the Leatherman Charge TTi a few days ago. Within three days of receiving it I changed the Pliers head to the Rebar Head. (Some people call it the Recharge now). Very nice.
At a later stage I will upgrade it to the Commander.
Very cool Johan :tu: I doubt that I would ever do that myself. Oh, and
:worthless:
It would be very interesting to see a new style TTi with a Rebar head.

*REALLY* hate the pancake sheath they include with it. That thing is a terrible design for anything other than the bit kits. For $30 though, cant complain too much. Too bad theres no cheap way to get a leather rebar sheath in Canada(Only place that seems to sell sheaths on their own is MEC, and they only stock the nylon, premium leather and juice ones)
Post by: CanadianLMfan on October 16, 2013, 02:24:42 AM
Nothing fancy, just the Rebar + micra set. It was on clearance at cabelas(canada) for a few days at $30, so i picked up one. Should have probably bought a 2end one for my brother.

I used to feel the same way and do about most all pancake sheaths, but I really get along with the one that came with the Rebar. I find it to fit close to my body and create a minimal "bulge."

I've been carrying mine for the last few weeks. I don't need pliers so much so it pairs nicely to a full sized SAK. :salute:

I'm leaning towards the mini todayI love my mini tool! Mine has no text on it so it could be a prototype or factory error but I still use it. I like to use it when a sak I'm carrying has all the tools I need but I still want real pliers. If you're using the pliers a lot though remember you have to open the tool then the handle extensions which can be annoying because it takes longer. I think the minitool is much better with the tools to surface area or weight ratio compared to Leatherman's current minimalist options (skeletool or freestyle). I mean this thing is like a micra with pst pliers! (Ok it's thicker than a micra)

That's what I like about it. It would be a great compliment to a SAK or any other item like the OHTrekkers, etc. if all you want is a pair of full size pliers without much else. I like the Sideclip as well since it does have some other options.

I doubt it's the coating, as I'm fairly sure BO isn't anywhere near as hard as the SM stones. It should abrade away normally. Is the edge bevel itself coated? Perhaps the coating is coming off and clogging up the stone.
It could also be the angle, as some PSTs I've seen have bevel sharpened in that are either at or greater the 20 degree per side SM angles.
If you'd like, I'd be happy to either sharpen or reprofile the blade for you on my Wicked Edge. I'm pretty certain the PST also uses 420HC, so it isn't likely to be a steel issue.

Perhaps the coating is coming off and clogging up the stone.Thank you very much for your friendly offer, but I guess sending it from Germany to the USA and back again is a bit inconvenient for the problem. ;) :tu: I think I just have to take the time and keep on sharpening for some more hours. :D

No, the coating itself shouldn´t be the problem. But maybe it prevents the blade from cutting well when doing a paper cut test because of the extra friction?! Even then I should get the edge hair shaving sharp under normal circumstances though. :think:
The bevel itself is not coated and visually everything should be fine. I guess the angle of the edge is disadvantageous for the Sharpmaker. ???
Post by: Dr. Bahn on October 24, 2013, 03:34:22 PM
Is the edge bevel itself coated?Okay, it really is the angle of the edge. Your question gave me the idea to paint the edge with a marker and use the Sharpmaker again. The result is that the paint is now away on the upper part of the edge and the lower part stayed painted. That means the ceramic rods don´t touch the actual cutting part of the edge yet. That is why it doesn´t become sharp. (Does that make any sense? It is difficult to explain for me in english. Sorry!)
Post by: sticktodrum on October 24, 2013, 03:57:17 PM
The Sharpmaker works if the edge is either the same angle or less than the stone angles, which is why I often make the edges a bit below 20 degrees.
You could just adjust how you hold the blade, trying to stay consistent. :)

I thought I was getting my Wingman today since the package's tracking had it listed as delivered on Saturday morning to the PO. This means it should have been in my work's morning mail pickup today, but it wasn't. This happened just last week with my SOG PPP as well, and they had put it on the town's route instead of in the PO box to which it belonged. I'm hoping that's what happened this time as well, and I'll have it tomorrow morning. We'll see...

So I didn't get my Wingman this morning like I hoped. I went to the PO a little bit ago to ask about the package, and it turns out it had been put in the PO box right next to my work's box. So it had been sitting there for a couple days, and I'm lucky it didn't get picked up and kept by the owner of that box. So now I have my Wingman, and I'll post pics tonight. First impression is that I like it, especially the scissors and spring loaded pliers :D
Glad you like the Wingman, but all I get from your post is that the USPS is steadily getting worse! :ahhh They keep getting worse and mailing things keeps getting more expensive. :D

Yeah, this was the second consecutive time the same PO messed up the delivery of an order, and both times within a week of each other. Not very confident in them now. Also, I've heard that postage is going up from $0.46 to $0.49 in January I think :facepalm:

Yeah baby :D Maybe that's why I love the Wingman so much. Instead of having it as my first MT and then adjusting to not spring loaded pliers, I am getting to enjoy them after being used to regular pliers. I must say, I will have a tough time wanting to go back to non-spring pliers. I don't really use the pliers much at all for this to be as big of a deal as I'm making it out to be, but I still can't deny how much easier spring loaded pliers are to operate for me, especially for the smaller type tasks I typically encounter at work. It will make certain tasks easier to handle. Perhaps the spring loaded feature weakens the strength of the pliers (I think I've read that somewhere), but I honestly don't do anything strenuous on them, and it feels solid overall to me. I can squeeze the handles hard and there's almost no flex in the handles whatsoever :tu:

Cool Wingman Monrogue! This past summer I used my Wingman way more than any of my other Leatherman tools. The spring loaded pliers, pocket clip, and scissors make it an excellent fishing tool. Plus, when I dropped it in the Kenai river several times... it's no big deal, it only cost me $20!
Thanks bdAmmo :salute: It really is a great tool, especially for the price. It makes me wonder why they don't have more spring loaded plier tools when you consider how cheap this one is. Perhaps spring loading the pliers is actually cheaper than the normal plier heads? I really wouldn't know...
Thanks man :salute: Why didn't you get along with it?

I can see and feel the difference between it and say the Charge or Wave for sure, but it doesn't feel like it's going to fall apart on me or anything like that. However, for all I know, if I were to put it through some tougher work, it may not hold up well. I can't really say for sure as I haven't tested any of my MTs in that capacity. I'm fairly confident that it will be sufficient for my normal daily life :tu: But to each their own, that's part of what makes this place interesting and informative :D

I got the kids and a few of their friends each one for Christmas last year and they seem to be holding up well. Just not my cup of tea, that's all.

good to see your wingman in your hands. i like it and while mine is taking time off it was a great tool for me. the package opener is slick and will be great for opening xmas gifts in clam shells and other type packaging. the spring loaded pliers is a nice feature when used repeatedly and i too could squeeze the heck out of them and saw or felt no issues.

Thanks Aloha :salute: Oh I bet the package opener will be great for stuff like that. I can see it being rather useful really. Yeah, the pliers feel solid to me, and spring loaded is so much better for me, even if I don't use the pliers much, it's a big help.

I have found out once you buy one Leatherman, you just want another and another......When does this madness stop? :facepalm: bought a Wave, then bought a OHT which is one of my favorite tools of all time, and now I want a Charge TTI. :facepalm:
Same happened to me got the LM Rebar & LM Micra set then started looking at either the Wave, Charge TTi or Surge, ended up with the Surge its one heck of a MT, screams Heavy Duty :multi:
My new issues is Skinth sheaths, got the Skith OG case but it came with a belt loop so may look at getting the Skinth Plus / XL or MG with Mollie Tab or Belt clip so many decissions... :ahhh

Don't like the bottle opener, don't like that you can't use the bit driver with the handle closed, looks cool but doesn't feel as good in my hand as I thought it would and a little heavy/long for the size.
I thought that this is a love it or not type of tool for people who like leatherman tools and I don't love it but I am not able to completely not like it either, there is something to it. I think that I will get a freestyle and try to mod it so I can get rid of the bottle opener.
For this size tool the juice line is better, even if it's not cooler. In my humble opinion.

After going back and forth for a long time I saw a great price and got a skeletool. What I thought about before I got it ended up being the same way I feel about now that I have one. I like the idea but not the final product.

Sounds like you have the same thoughts on the Skeletool as me. Looks cool, but I don't think I would like it to use.
I actually made the choice between one of them and the Rebar + Micra set yesterday and I went with the Rebar/Micra.

Post by: dnyc on November 07, 2013, 11:27:13 PM
I would love to see a thinner version of the rebar, say one side flat like the fuse. You would have to take out a few tools, (serrated blade, saw or file and a couple others like the can opener), but it would be thinner and a little light and with a pocket clip would make a much better pocket tool that the skeletool.

Will do. :salute: I'll also try to get some good pics of the changes they made to the handle design to accommodate the larger plier head.
sidenote: the LM employee who helped me was very impressed with my ReCharge -- she said it was the best mod work she's ever seen. :) I told her that's only because Metro lives in Canada and has never been to LM HQ. Then she gave me a funny look. ???
ok, so I didn't actually say that, but it was the first thing that came to mind. :D

I just picked up a new Rebar the other day. I gave my first one to my Dad last year for fathers day and really missed it from day one. It's great to have it back.
That's cool. Glad you got another one :tu:

So far ive been happy with the sidekick and used it more than my surge,not that it will replace it but its been a good week to test it out :tu:
Did you put it through any hard use? Just curious as I know the quality/durability factor seemed to be an issue for some. I don't really ever get to test my MTs to the limit so to speak, so it's hard for me to make any claims about quality/durability from first hand experience.

I would say i used it as hard as any dedicated tool,i did fold up the phillips today but no locks so this happens, the wirecutters cut coat hanger gauge tubing ok but not so well on some thicker electrical wires but ok on thinner,the blade is smooth and nice shape and sharp,a bit of up and down wiggle but nothing ill stress about,again a mt saves me from going back and forth to my tool bag,a 1/4 socket fits the phillips so you could use other bits :tu:

That's part of why I like it-it's a bit basic in comparison to many MTs. It has the basic things most people would commonly need (maybe not the little file/ruler, although it does have a flathead at the end) without a bunch of tools that many are less likely to need often. While I prefer to have a file and saw on my MTs, I can't honestly say I need them often enough to worry about it. I do like to have a nailfile if possible though (not that I use one daily, but it's nice to have when needed), and the diamond file works well for that, but the regular files not so much. As I stated when I first got my Wingman, it's practically ideal for my normal usage, and would be even more so if there was a diamond file on the other side of that little file. The spring loaded pliers really are a big factor, despite the fact that I really don't use them much. I just really like using them when I need to though, and that feature really helps make them easier to use :tu:

I cant see me using the ruler much but then i dont use the one on my surge and that option not on the older wave, the small flathead is usefull,file not so great but hey not all mt's are perfect :rofl:

of bubble wrap pks. with the package opener and been tightening some knobs on kitchen
cabinets. My EDC was a Wave. I forget when I purchased it(15-20 yrs ago), but I figured I'd treat myself to an upgrade. My next Leatherman was going to be a Surge, but the more I read about
it, I knew that I had to have a TTI. The Surge may be next.

@ Rusty the wave and TTi are excellent tools as im sure the Surge is as well. I used my TTI for a while but i didn't care for the cap crimper plier head on mine so i went back to the wave.

it would be awesome to find a Japanese PST at my local fm. i will be patient and watch the bay and one will pop up im sure, i hope, maybe.
@DrBahn
that is great mini i wonder what the heck they were trying to cut :think:. im sure you can get it sorted out tho.

the mini would be a great carry for you especially with you complimenting it with a full feature SAK and blade.

Right. I figure it would be good to carry with a SAK like the Champion Plus (if I end up getting one that is) or one of my other SAKs and the OHMasterRT. All I'd really be missing is pliers, and maybe a saw, but the saw doesn't concern me much as I rarely use it. They're awful tempting, but seem to be hard to come by, especially for a reasonable price.

@Monrogue: Like Aloha wrote before, I also think a Mini Tool would be good to carry together with a SAK of some kind. Are they that expensive used in the US? Here in Germany they are frequently sold for about $ 30-60. ???
@enki: "...all those shiny tools.."? Unfortunately for you my black mt collection is growing every month. The BO Mini is my sixth BO mt plus I have got 3 black Alox Vics. :multi: So it actually feels quite familiar here. Sorry! :D

I haven't checked in a little while, but whenever I have, there really weren't many available at all. I prefer the "buy it now" option so I don't have to wait days or even weeks in some cases, for the auction to end, especially when I don't even know if I'm going to end up with it. I'd rather pay a little more just to know I'll be getting it soon. I'm impatient like that unfortunately. I may have to go that route though, depending on what I find.

I don't have duplicates of my MTs either. I only have singles of every MT that I own. I doubt I could get by without opening any MT even if I did have duplicates :think:
Ha, yes it was ;) I know I'd still struggle to resist the temptation to open up even a duplicate. I would want to get my hands on it, not just look at it in the package. I would not be a good collector of any items that should be kept in packages ::)

My most recent MT purchase is a Wingman, I know it is not as high end as my supertool 300 but I prefer it, I gotta say the spring loaded pliers, the smaller size and pocket clip make this my most used MT.
Same here :tu: I've carried mine exclusively (at work anyway) since I got it about a month ago. I've never carried any of my new MTs this long. I usually may carry one for a couple weeks, and then add it to the rotation, but the Wingman has taken over my rotation so far.

I got myself the LM Surge, got it with a great bundle the Surge + Led Lenser P3 + 42 Bit Kit, I bought the Skinth OG for the Rebar/Micra, however it fits the Surge pretty good, but still decided to order another Skinth this time the Plus with the Stainless steel belt clip rather the the belt loop that the OG has, going to give the Rebar and Micra to my wife with the Skinth OG to have in her hand bag.

The new model Surge appeared in Poland in sales recently, unless 11.08.2013. I was surprised that he is with us. Torch is actually S15, first impressions very positive.

Yeah, the Rebar is fairly small (I remember thinking the same thing the first time I held mine), especially when you consider all packed into it. Very versatile and functional little package :tu: I too like the plier head.

I certainly like the Sidekick's plain edge compared to the Wingman's combo edge. As I wasn't a hge fan of the Wingman's scissors, I'm just as happy to have the saw, and the short serrated edge blade is probably just as useful in reality to me as the Wingman's package opener. So, overall, I think I like it more than the Wingman.

So, overall, I think I like it more than the Wingman.
I share the same thoughts (with the exception of the Wingman's scissors-I don't mind them), especially regarding the package opener vs. the serrated blade. I figure the little serrated blade would work fairly well as a package opener, and be useful for other cutting tasks that the package opener would not. I too would prefer the full PE blade to the combo blade of the Wingman. While I prefer scissors to a saw, I don't really need scissors on the MT as I carry a SAK with scissors. I don't really need a saw, but I like to have one on my MT just in case. So basically what I'm saying is that I want a Sidekick and would probably prefer it overall to the Wingman now that I've thought about it. That's how it tends to work around here though >:D

One other thing about this platform. Their cost means I'm a LOT more likely to get one for someone as an entry level tool. They may not stick with it, and that's fine, but it's a good starter. In fact, it's a GREAT starter. I've given away 2 Wingmans so far.

I am still partial for tools that you need to open to get to the tools. The Wave I used to carry seemed to always collect dirt and lint. By older styled tools did not seem to do this.

I think that really depends on what you use them for. I have a Spirit X, and had a Wave, and find both to be more than I'll really ever need. For the light/medium duty stuff I do, I think the Wingman/Sidekick are nearly perfect.

Nice, glad you like it man :tu: I assume everything QC related is in order?
I should clarify my comments earlier about possibly preferring the Sidekick. That would apply as long as it's part of a combo with a SAK with scissors. If it came down to me only being able to carry either the Wingman or Sidekick as a standalone tool, I would go with the Wingman due to the fact it has scissors. I would need scissors far more often than a saw.
Still want to get a Sidekick though. I'm debating sneaking one into an Amazon order the wife has going for some Christmas stuff >:D I wouldn't be as hesitant as I am if I hadn't just received a new PS3 as my Christmas gift early ;)

I thought about that, but I don't care about the Croc, and the nearest Home Depot is about an hour away. Of course I could order it online, but I would just go with Amazon on that. I've on the 30 day free trial of Amazon Prime, so I would get free 2 day shipping :D

At what point does the delusion that I am not "Collecting" clear up?Some people seem to be able maintain this particular self-deception indefinitely ;) , but for me it "cleared up" when I realized I was buying MTs that I knew (before I decided to buy) I had absolutely no intention of ever actually using :D
That was some time ago, and my collection continues to grow today. It has slowed down a bit lately, the main reason being that I am having difficulty finding the particular MTs I want for sale/trade. I think they are mostly in the hands of other collectors who seem to want to hang on to them. I guess that is why these people are called "collectors", not "catch and releasers" :rofl:
And while I'm on that subject, if anyone has any of the following they are willing to sell/trade please PM me:
Original LM PSTs (Cabela's or Early Winters catalogues)
LM PST with hollow knurled screws
LM Mini "cleanskin" (no stampings on handle)
LM ST 200 SS with CC pliers
LM Vista
yellow, blue or tan Gerber Multi-Locks (MP600's)
Gerber MP650 evolution (military)
Sheffield "Crocodile" Kershaw A100 copy (straight jaws, OHO knife)

Question:
Are the plastic micra's the same as the regular ones? or is the steel casing thinner than the ones that dont come with plastic shells? I might break the green plastic off, as i dont like how the casing rattles and flexes around the steel frame.

The KF4 is in very slightly used condition. The Supertool looks virtually new.
I love the Supertool 300. I have ABSOLUTELY no practical need for it. :rofl: I'ts a monster of a tool, and seems like it could handle any punishment I'd be able to dish out.
I am eyeing the KF4 HARD as my secondary carry tool. I like the size and mass of the juice line. I really like the tool combination on this tool. I liked the S2 as well, but I really don't care for the scissors, and already carry a SOG Crosscut. Also, some of you may know my preference for very VISIBLE tools, and that solar yellow certainly qualifies.
I'm digging both. :tu:

I like that it has the outside accessible tools so that I can use the small blade at work when I'm around others (office setting). It would pair well with my Yeochamp since it has no small blade (combo opener instead). The little scissors will be great for whisker trimming, and better than the 91mm SAK scissors as those are sometimes too big, depending on the angle of trimming. I like the little spring loaded pliers too. This would give me a second set of pliers for those (admittedly rare for me) times when that is necessary. The drivers seem decent, but I honestly wouldn't be reaching for this tool as a first choice should I need a driver. I do wish the file was a nailfile rather than a wood/metal file as it seems an odd choice on such a small MT. While the finer side does seem to work decently as a nailfile, I wouldn't be using such a tiny, easily bent/broken file on wood/metal. I'd be reaching for either my full size MT or SAK for that.
Overall, I'm pleased with it, and could see myself carrying it as part of me EDC lineup over the Micra or Executive (both tools I own). I think the Micra will go on my keychain, which it's well suited for anyway with the tools all protected on the inside. Anyway, enough of my rambling...here are the pics :D

The drivers are actually nice and free on this one, and the pliers are just the right tension that should loosen a little with use - but the scissors are way too loose and just jam up on the spring when trying to operate them :facepalm:

I know, I have been on a bit of a Leatherman roll (we'll use that term ;)) it seems lately. The Squirt was unexpected and spontaneous as I probably wouldn't have gotten it normally. I'm glad I did though as it's a good little addition to my EDC :tu:

I think I will end up carrying this one for work as the Rebar I bought is not so convenient with its "inside" knife blades and that is probably my most used tool. I have actually relegated the Rebar to my toolbag and pocket carry a Alox Electrician SAK. The Wave will give me the best of both worlds.
Looks to be in good enough condition and was a reasonable price for here "down-under".
I have a almost complete LM bit-kit which I found on a jobsite earlier in the year so it will finally come in handy.
(http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTYwMFgxNjAw/z/nqAAAOxyNo9SrCTQ/$_57.JPG)
The Rebar won't be neglected, it will live in either my Tank-bag on the Ducati or in my Camelback when I'm on the dirtbike.
Post by: Monrogue on December 20, 2013, 02:43:28 PM
Core, Flair, Juice KF4/Pro/SC2 some random others. I try to be pretty frugal so I'm being patient as the prices on some are wacky.
It sounds like you're trying to "catch 'em all" huh? I haven't really thought about the Core or Flair, nor the SuperTools originally, but I've somewhat had the desire to get at least the original SuperTool, just not sure that I would have much use for it, not that it should matter right ;) And of course I've wanted an original Wave as well, although my desire for it seems to have subsided. I think that's pretty much it for me as I have the PST, PSTII and Juice KF4.

One thing keeping me from indulging my curiosity about the SuperTool is the fact that I likely wouldn't carry it, but it would be a good vehicle MT. However, in a vehicle, I lose the chance to fiddle with it at home unless I want to actually go and get it from my car, which I wouldn't bother with, and would feel silly doing. I don't know what to do :ahhh I love the build quality of those older LMs, so I really would like to check out a SuperTool and original Wave. Probably someday >:D
Post by: Aloha on December 20, 2013, 05:45:48 PM
The older LMs are something pretty special for sure that's why in my recent giveaway I offered the ST200 up. I had 4 and wanted to share the fun of rocker locks. The old wave is very slim and way cool but I love my new Wave with bits. When I got my TTI I carried that for a bit but when back to my Wave. I will eventually get both Surges and see if the larger "Wave" suits me. This was the tool I initially wanted but went for the Wave instead.

Yes that is right. You're an ebay sniper :salute: I don't think I can play that game though. I prefer the "buy it now" deals as I don't like having to watch an auction for days or even weeks it seems in some cases, just to end up reaching my limit and someone else grabbing it up instead. I'm impatient with getting new items though, so that's part of the problem. If I could tough it out for however long, I'd probably enjoy it some.

I doubt that any multi could escape the super secret vault where that orange P4 now resides.

Post by: captain spaulding on December 31, 2013, 07:48:10 AM
In the past I have owned 2 S2's, 2 CS4's, and a C2 and ended up selling them all off. Not all at the same time. I always end up buying another one in replacement (like this C2) so I think this C2 is the keeper. The size is ideal for pocket carry and Until Leatherman offers another tool in its size I think its going to see a lot of pocket time. If i could turn the can opener into an awl it would just put the icing on the cake. :drool: pretty sure Someone here did that.

A "New" Wave to go with my "Old" one.
The new one was from eBay locally for a pretty good price. Its date codes are 0812 and I got it for the price I paid for a Rebar retail recently. (I'm happier with the pre-loved Wave)

I just received my new BO Rebar :mail: The finish is even and looks good throughout the tool. Just drew blood on a finger testing out the serrated blade. This isn't the first time this has happened to me :facepalm: Somehow the serrated blades seem to surprise me and I end up cutting deeper than expected :facepalm: Pics tonight.
Of the wound or the Rebar? Personally I don't feel the need to see a bleeding finger, but I'll happily look at the BO Rebar. ;)

Since October, I've added the below in order from L-R:
Rebar, BO ST300, Wave, Wingman, ST300 w/Micra, Rebar w/Micra, BO Core, Rebar (Blast replacement from warranty), Sidekick w/CROC, Skeletool CX, Style CS.

Yeah, too late for the wound picture, but I had thought about it at the time and was too busy trying to stop it from bleeding on my keyboard :facepalm: These are usually only slight surface cuts that do nothing at all, but this time it got me ;) And yes, I know it's silly to test on my fingers as opposed to say, paper, but this seems to be a good way of testing normally.

@Mango808 your collection is looking great I really like the BO CoreI really like it too. It has the Cap Crimper on it as well. Never had a Leatherman with one.
Besides the above, I still have a PST, Sideclip, BO ST200, 2 Squirt P4's, 2 Micra's and a Blast.
3 Rebars? :drool:That first Rebar on the left is what got me started on my latest buys. Got a BO ST300 but the lock tab spring broke somehow and I had to send it in for warranty. Saw the ST300 w/Micra combo on sale at West Marine for $69.99 (should hold me over while the BO ST300 goes in for warranty) and they also had the Rebar w/Micra combo for $39.99 (another great deal). The 3rd Rebar was the warranty replacement for a Blast that I sent in also.
Today I received two new Surge's (new model) and a new Rebar.Thanksgiving weekend there was a New model Surge at West Marine for $99.99 when I got my ST300 w/Micra and Rebar w/Micra combos. The holidays was already looking to be expensive.

I almost picked up a new Surge today, just couldn't bring myself to spend that much money on it. I did get a PST II in the mail today though :D. It was kind of a surprise, I was expecting a PST that I got real cheap on ebay but it turned out to be an early model PST II. I guess it's back to looking for another cheap PST, I need one to steal some parts out of.
where is that?

In better news, I got two brand new original Waves, both of which are excellent. A NIB BO Blast in perfect shape...and a PST II in really nice shape.
So, not all bad. The TTi was supposed to be a user while my AL is away again for service. Buuuut...I guess it's back to the Spirit RT until my luck picks up.
Post by: Monrogue on January 07, 2014, 03:44:16 AM
Got a Charge TTi in today...and it's going back. Scales are loose at the pivots, and I can't find my TR10 bits anywhere. Also, the edge bevels on the blade are ridiculously uneven, worse than usual, and I'm in no mood to reprofile a new blade and remove that much material. So, going to return/exchange it. Hopefully I'll get a better sample. If not, I'll keep exchanging it until I do. :)

Collecting can be odd at times. For a few years, I have searched for a special Micra...and then gave up thinking I would never find one. Just a week ago, I stumbled upon one for grabs on eBay and I won the auction...and it went cheap as I was prepared to go all out for it. Can't wait to get the Portland Trail Blazers #7 Brandon Roy Micra in my hands and safely in my collection. After the new Surge mix up, I do have my fingers crossed on this one.
That's great Chako. It's hard being patient some times especially when I see so many great acquisitions lately but I know items will eventually come up.

Collecting can be odd at times. For a few years, I have searched for a special Micra...and then gave up thinking I would never find one.

I like the hunt, digging for that lost treasure , then bringing them back to life.
I can spot an Sak a half an isle down at the flea market, Sak radar ! Gotta love it

Here it is, in all it's gorgeous crud-covered glory. NOTHING wrong with it, besides it needs to be cleaned. Wow.

Im liking the PST II. The scissors have a weird way of opening and closing but I kind of like that.I like the PSTII scissors also. They're a lot bigger than Leatherman's modern equivalent.

No thats not what I meant. I mean how the scissors thumb handle flips out while the scissors stay shut as well as the spring mechanism.

Ah, right. The handle does flip out, which I thought was neat with how you can pull them out by that, or at least that's what I do ;)

I just picked up two sets in the Home Depot in Raleigh, NC, Capital Blvd store (If you happen to live nearby!). They had them out front just beyond the cash registers, near the tools in a cardboard box. My guess is they are Christmas leftovers. They had no price on them which probably explains why they had them to begin with! :oops: I also did not need one, I already had one, but I just could not pass that deal up. I also did not have a Croc, but do not know if I will ever use it.

Although it was an eBay purchase listed as faulty I felt no qualms in returning it for warranty replacement. The tool generally was in very good condition with no signs of even moderately hard use, let alone abuse, but most of the backsprings were broken/missing.
So now I have a NIB CS4. Thank you LM for the great warranty service. :salute: :salute:

I edced a pulse back in the day. I believe its still a excellent tool 10 years later. Leatherman should have kept it around longer. I myself like the lock and all of its tools.

Nice Joel, a new toy is a good way to raise the spirit :tu: I'm still on the fence about getting a Pulse. Sometimes I really feel like I want one, then others I don't seem as sure...

New company policy: Every employee shall EDC a Leatherman MT. Placing a big order with home depot as we speak.
This is a killer company policy. What will everyone EDC?
Just received my 7th Leatherman product in the mail today....a Squirt PS4. I put it on my keychain and can't wait to try it out.
Cool!!!! While I dont have a PS4 all the reviews are its a great little tool. I have a Dime and when paired with a smaller SAK 58mm its a nice little combo. Let us know how it works for you and dont forget to snap some pictures of it in use :tu:

Welcome to MTo, the Original Wave is a nice slim MT for either pocket carry or sheath. I haven't had a chance to hold the XE6 but it looks like a thick tool with lots of capabitlity.

It does look like it would be a good challenge for the Spirit. The Fuse looks like a good tool, and the handles look like they'd be comfortable to hold.
Mine has a little rust and a few scratches on the pliers, and someone engraved B.J. onto it.
Still a very nice tool.

The Fuse is sadly underrated! I think the biggest problem they had was the fact that the Zytel liners need a breaking in period. Also nice and easy to mod!

When I first got my Bladeless Fuse,it was very,very stiff. Unlike my Wave,PST or Skeli,lubrication didn't help,it only loosened up through use. My Kick,and mt flat mates Blast were all the same

I did last night and it is so pocketable and covers anything I'd likely ever need evenings while sitting at my computer ;)
It has alway received good reviews and I've always wanted one but the cost kept me away honestly. I found one at a good price and it arrived yesterday so in the pocket it goes as my plier layer. I really like the color and size.

I have a new style Charge TTi on the way from eBay and a couple of spare clips. I already have a nice assortment of spare bits. I plan to use this as my EDC as other options to the REBAR and WingMan. I really miss the OHO blades and bit driver.

Initially I hated the thing, but a couple months in, it's suprising how good it is. You can put more pressure on the pliers than the Wave, it doesn't rust at all, the scissors are excellent (and quite large).
My only gripe is I hate the serrated part of the knife blade, and when I open the knife the serrations rip up my thumb fairly often. Highly recommended though.

Dale, how do you like the silver finish? I saw those online at Cabela's when I was searching for a Coyote Brown model. Wasn't sure from the stock photos how it would look in person or how the finish was applied. Is it a coating or bare metal?

I think he'll be chuffed with the Cadet… but possibly not so much this. It's a shame too because they're $40 something USD over here (we pay 2-3x what you guys in the US pay for most things like this). It's very heavy for its size and for some reason I expected spring loaded pliers… don't know why.

Just received a PST II in the mail. What a great size. It is a little uncomfortable when applying pressure when using the pliers, but worth it for the size and weight. I also wish it had a plain edge blade, but I can live with it. I don't understand why Leatherman would stop making the PST/PST II. I was really surprised when I opened the package. I thought I was sent the wrong tool at first. I can fit this thing in my fifth pocket.
I knew you would like it. Why Leatherman stopped making them is as much a mystery to me as you. Great slim tool. :tu:

I love my Wingman. Initially I didn't like it at all but it's definitely grown on me. I'd recommend it to anyone. The scissors are excellent, the one hand open is great. The main thing I don't like about it is the serrated knife. I keep catching my thumb on it with the one hand open. I'd prefer to swap it with the blade from the sidekick.

Security Torx T10 x2. At least I think the Wingman needs the security bits. Hard to tell from website pics and I don't have mine handy at the moment.
Of course, having those bits means you can mod your other full size Leathermans as well... :whistle:

It's definitely not a torx. The PST has a screw like my ST300. It's not a screw I've come across.
My bad. Thought we were talking about the Wingman... :facepalm:
I use vise grips to take apart tools like the ST300 and Rebar. You can pad the jaws to help prevent marring of the heads. I also heat the screws with a lighter to make sure any loctite is loosened when I take apart a new tool.

That's a bummer you can't purchase the tools needed. Looks like I'll have to try the vise grip option if I choose to go ahead with this. Thanks for the links!
No worries. I've had lots of success with the vise grips. Trick is to tape or pad the jaws, go slow and heat the pivots first.
I made the mistake of not heating the pivots on the first Kick I took apart and mangled the heads on the tool side pivots. They still worked after, but looked a little rough.

A very cool Super Tool 300 EOD came in today. Thanks mtngoat :salute:
You know I don't have any use for the EOD tools, but thats just :drool:
Post by: kirk13 on February 27, 2014, 12:10:34 AM
Just received a PST II in the mail. What a great size. It is a little uncomfortable when applying pressure when using the pliers, but worth it for the size and weight. I also wish it had a plain edge blade, but I can live with it. I don't understand why Leatherman would stop making the PST/PST II. I was really surprised when I opened the package. I thought I was sent the wrong tool at first. I can fit this thing in my fifth pocket.
Gareth swapped out the combo for a plain edge :pok:
I have a PE up for grabs if your interested :pok:
I am definitely interested! Is there a particular tool for taking these apart?
Either two Kick pocket clips,or two pairs of pliers,used carefully!

Keep looking. I got this one for 28.50 Euro shipped from Germany. And I saw one being sold in the US last week for $30 plus shipping. One just has to be fast when they show up with a good BIN price or be lucky enough to find one mislisted. ;)

That's a deal-breaker for me then. Was hoping it was uncoated metal. If that's the case, then I'll be looking to pick up a Coyote brown one at a later date.

you tried scratching it and its not coated. I was sure it was a coating. I looked at one quick at work when a guy had one he got from Cabelas http://www.cabelas.com/product/LEATHERMAN-OHT-SILVER/1641565.uts
not the first time I've been wrong :facepalm:
it says in its description that it has stainless steel body with imprinted handle scales. Whatever that means???

The driver extender doesn't lock into the tool like the bits do, which is a bit smurf as it just falls out if you turn it upside down. But now I can use all the bits I already have in my toolbox so that's a plus.

Got this for 6 Euros shipped :o so couldn't pass it by.
(http://i60.tinypic.com/2rzxq3t.jpg)
Didn't know what's with all the fuss about Leatherman but it's a darned nice toy... solid, strong, easy to open, nice tools, feels great in hand. I also looove the locking system (despite Googling for 30 minutes on how to unlock the tools and almost blocking the whole thing :whistle: ) I love how smooth and strong is.
After a nice wash in warm soapy water and some passes through the Vic Sharpener it feels like new. It all seems really nice - I'll test out later the file on a tiny padlock whose key I misplaced ages ago :-[ )

It's not a whole new tool, but I got my bit kit and driver extender for my Wave (which I've been carrying for the past week instead of the Blast).
The driver extender doesn't lock into the tool like the bits do, which is a bit smurf as it just falls out if you turn it upside down. But now I can use all the bits I already have in my toolbox so that's a plus.

The bit adapter is on its way for my Blast too :) looks like I can take all the screwdrivers out of my truck toolbox now.
Mine fits pretty snug, diffidently does not fall out when upside down.

Yap, I was lucky that the seller didn't know what he was selling... he sold a bunch of saks and sak-alikes... same 4 Euros for either a Vic Climber of a Chinese knock-off. This one he advertised as "multifunc. pliers" no mention of "Leatherman" or "multitool" anywhere... normally used Leatherman STs go here for 50-60 Euros...

I guess its because LM is one of the Off-Brands here. They are similar in price as the SwissTool / Swiss Tool Spirit, so they have stiff competition. Adding to this that we pride ourselves in the quality of our Swiss Army knife and are reluctant to change.Factory new Mini, saw it on a shelf in a Hardware-store, probably been sitting there for a long time :D

Thank you bdA. This one has the usual stamping on the front but none on the back side. First one I've had like that. I really like the older style sheath that came with the older Leathermans. As you proably already know by the plier head stamps this is a no date MINI. :)

Rebar is quite stiff and dirty, but not much used. Ps4 has little dent on blade and some wear on scales, other than that tools have seen only little use. S4 seems to need little sharpening on scissors, other than that, just scale wear. All need some loving and soap water. For now, i need some of that too. Been sick for last three days. This sucks all juices out of me. When i feel little better, i will clean them.
First thoughts on Rebar was not so impressed. Tiny little bugger. Anyone want to sell me ST300?

If you want a bigger MT you don't need an ST300, you need a West Marine Blacktip (by SOG) :pok: :rofl:

Thanks. I do feel little better. I did some cleaning and oiling already on Squirts. Left rebar last. Just to get private time with it. And to get knowing it better.
Not bad of a tool. It has potential. Longer blades, and replace those fishing implements, and why not...

Overall I am pleased so far, but disappointed that it doesn't have the pivot out drivers as I really wanted that, but it was still a pleasant surprise that it was an older one with the saber point blade :D
Post by: sawman on March 11, 2014, 04:29:02 PM
Got my NIB BO PST this morning :mail: It's not the pictured version I saw (stock photo, which had the "pivot out" drivers), but rather an older version. It has a date code of 0993 on one handle and 0893 on the other, and it appears to have the saber point blade, which I love :D It's very stiff, which is unusual in the PST's I've gotten so far, but that could be due to the age and BO coating? I'm in hopes it'll loosen up as I fiddle with it.I actually prefer the old style drivers. :salute: :D

It is the non cap crimper version right?
Post by: Monrogue on March 11, 2014, 08:38:08 PM
Whats the difference in the drivers? Anyone have pictures of the different types? :think:
It is the non cap crimper version right?
Yes, it is the non cap crimper version. The "pivot out" drivers were an improvement implemented sometime in the late 90's or around 2000, but anyone correct me if I'm wrong as I'm not totally sure on that. It just made it less likely that they would fold in when in use. I don't have any pics comparing them myself, but I'm sure someone does.
Overall I suppose it's not really a big deal considering my amount of use. I just wanted a version with those improved drivers to see what they're like. Oh well, I got a brand new, 21 year old BO PST for a good price, so I can't complain about that at all :tu:
Post by: captain spaulding on March 11, 2014, 08:51:20 PM
Im not concerned about the drivers as I'm not going to use mine but was just interested as I had not heard of the change in the drivers before. Admittedly I had never done any research on it either. Thanks again. :tu:

Well they come pretty well looking scratched right out of the box, but that's just the way BO seems to look in my limited experience. My BORebar looked the same before any carry/use. Of course, you probably mean actually scratching the BO off I'm assuming...
Post by: Nhoj on March 12, 2014, 06:36:34 PM
Yeah even without use simple things like just opening and closing the pliers can rub on the BO. I'll probably give in eventually though. After all they are tools and meant to be used.

Yeah, I've noticed in on the pliers on the PST, but it's really tight on one handle in particular. I'm not sure if the BO coating contributes to the tight/stiff feeling, but any other PST I have has been loose and smooth opening. And yes, if you allow us, we'll play the role of enablers until you cave and get one :pok: >:D

Right, I should clarify that I was primarily referring to the pliers/handles being stiff, but the tools themselves seem normal based on my other PSTs. Perhaps the ones I already have were loosened up as they were used. However, my PSTII was brand new in the package and was smooth as well. I'm hoping it loosens up with time and fiddling, which I've been doing as much as I can.

I love the way the AL/ALX look. Possibly the best looking Leatherman in my opinion. My AL is on its way over from the states at the moment. Really looking forward to getting it. Lighter and prettier than the wave.
I don't quite understand the ALX because why would you want two drivers instead of one with scissors when the drivers have removable bits anyway? Each to their own!

Post by: sawman on March 13, 2014, 02:04:13 PM
I've always got either an Executive or a Rambler on my keys, so scissors are covered. Quicker to get to as well. :) I've already had to use both a flat and Phillips driver this morning on the same task, so not having to switch out a bit was a little plus. :tu: Alternatively, I'll keep a combo flat/Phillips in one driver, and a Torx in the other for shaker maintenance.I wasn't in any way bashing the ALX. In fact, the double flat and Philips bits are one thing I like about it. That's the same thing I like most about the Skeletool. :salute:

My first Leatherman was an XTi with the dual large bit drivers. With the two drivers, I could have one equipped with the Phillips/Flat combo bit and the other with the dual Robertson bits (we have a lot of these screws in Canada). This meant that I could pocket carry with a clip instead of carrying a pouch with the other bits or having them in my pocket. Since I always had a Micra on the keys, my scissors needs were covered.
Nowadays my go to Leatherman is a ReCharge TTi with single bit driver since I pouch carry as I find I need more than 2 extra bits and they are easy to store in the card in the pouch.

The new old stock black oxide PST arrived. Dated 0793 on one handle. No date on the knife side of the handle. The sheath and box are just as exciting as the tool. That NIB feeling never gets old. I'll get pics up when I can. Flickr is being a douche.
Nice, can't wait to see it Ben :tu: I know what you mean about opening up that old box and seeing that brand new sheath with the goodie inside :D

The knife blade came made for bread and butter duty. Other than that I couldn't ask for any more out of the new old PST.
Post by: Monrogue on March 14, 2014, 03:49:15 AM
Folding the pliers out, very stiff. Tool/knife deployment is tight and clumpy. The way I prefer it. I like the grainy finish of the black oxide on this old PST. Nowhere as refined as the newer black oxide finish on LM tools. (not that its that its all that more refined) Another plus is the sheath with the leather swatch over the rivets inside the sheath. Small things like that go a long way for me. I lucked out buying a few of the old PST sheaths off ebay and one came with the leather swatch. Something Leatherman should still be doing. Or at least an option when buying a box leather sheath off the LM site.

Mine was too, but I've worked at it enough repeatedly until it smoothened out to my liking. However, the plier head itself isn't as loose in opening as I'd like, but I'm hoping it will do the same with repeated opening/closing. Glad you like yours too. It is a heck of a deal at that price :tu:

If you do end up using the can opener let me know how it works out. Out of all the MT can openers I have used I have yet to ever use the PST or "old style" can opener.
I'll have to make it a point to use it sometime. I rarely open cans as most have the pull top now. I do occasionally come across a can without that though, and will have to try to remember to use it. Any excuse to use our MTs right? ;)

Very nice!
I'm wanting a Fuse at some point as I have the kick and blast. They want about 85USD for a stainless fuse here, and 50USD for a kick… so I think I might wait and get one from the states.
Great bargain you got there.

I live in Athens Greece and there is absolutely no way to find such tool around here. So I got them from US eBay and shipped them to a friend who lives in the USA. When my mate flew to Greece, brought them with him

I'm lucky in that sense because there's nothing near my area that sells any MTs/SAKs. Closest is a Walmart about an hour away, and they don't sell much of anything I care to have, or don't already have. Ebay is bad though >:D

Not that I'm complaining but I wonder why the Surge costs so much more than the Wave. It's just a little bit more metal involved... thoughts?
More metal, different size/type components that are unique to that model?
More probable is branding: 'It's bigger, so we can sell it for more.'
The ST300 is more than the Rebar, so it kind of makes sense. I guess it depends on how much different the price is. Up here a Rebar will put you back about ~$50 brand new and an ST300 ~$80. The Wave retails in the ~$90 and the new Surge for ~$100 (all models SS, prices approx, can be found for less depending on store).
Post by: captain spaulding on March 21, 2014, 12:30:16 AM
I'm still not sold because of the added size. Same reason I no longer own any ST300's. They were just too bulky.
I liked the ST300, but it's not practical for carry for me. I do have one in my car though. Seems the only real practical option for me and the ST300.

Same here. I like the looks of the Surge, but if it weighs a few ounces more than the typical multitools I own, then that's just too much.

I can't remember what I've last posted here, anyhow, I've recently received a very nice early model PST NIB with leather sheath. I want one as a user but each 3 that I've bought so far are just too nice to use. I guess I'm just lucky that way. I've also gotten another BO Rebar, (ahh, I remember posting about the orange Fuse lately), a BO Wave on the way (hopefully today, if not Mon) and some bit extension kits for the Rebar. :D

I can help you out, just send them on to me and I'll send some used later model ones you can really beat up on without worrying about. That should make you much happier ;) :pok: :rofl:

I got a Charge Ti today. Needs some lovin' and a good soak in WD40 and into the collection she goes. Pretty stoked right now.
Post by: Dale on April 01, 2014, 09:21:43 PM
@Colt, the S2 is smaller than I had estimated even after all the info on it. I like mine a lot when paired with my Explorer for a light day. The color wears a bit fast for my tastes but I guess that add character :think:. I find the pliers a nice size for most light to medium usage. The blade and scissors are very good and i like the philips. The can opener and flat drivers are OK. Hope you give this little tool a good work out and see if it can make the cut.

:salute: Thanks Dale, This is Date stamped 04-04 both handles with some light surface rusting throughout. The 154CM blade is in great shape and came with a nice old sheath.
Nice score Aloha :tu: The Ti is one I wouldn't mind having as I think I prefer the full on serrated blade without the cutting hook.

Does anyone have any experiences on these? Like to hear pros and cons...
I had one, but I ended up selling it. I liked the initial idea of it as a decent little OHO blade and a set of pliers. It would make for a great pairing with a robust SAK (depending on your needs for a tool loadout). However, I wasn't a fan of the plier shape for some reason, maybe just too blunt for my liking, and the ergonomics weren't great for me. I don't have large hands either, so if someone has larger hands, I would imagine this to be even more of a problem. Everyone's different though, so it may be just fine for you :tu:

Right now i am thinking, should i open the box, or sell/trade them both straight away... I will sell/trade one of them anyway... But dont know yet what to do wit this other one. Looks like it has some fiddle factor, but i dont think it never going to be one of my favourites...

You would be better off to try it if you think there's any chance you will like it. I don't want you to take my negatives and roll with them without hearing any potential positives from others ;) However, I don't ever read much on here about the Freestyle, so I'm not sure it's a widely used/owned tool. Either way, you may as well check it out and find out for yourself how it feels and what your thoughts are :tu:

Someone please convince me that I don't need a new Surge. I went to all the retailers in town this week that sell LM products and no one had one :think: I guess I really don't need one.

Greg, over all it is in good shape. Some one sure didnt know how to sharpen the knife blade But that is an easy fix.

Okay, Terry you really need a new Surge. And the sooner the better! :D :D

Okay, Terry you really need a new Surge. And the sooner the better! :D :D
I've honestly tried to get one but can't find one locally. This is something I'd rather buy in person than online like I usually do. Thanks SO much for your encouragement David :D

nope I got two.
I was asked to return the back up rebar I had to the person who gave it to me.
he needs it to use it.
I'm just glad that I didn't break or lose my rebar when I was down to one.

sharpen the side with the edge and just remove the burr left on the other side.
I hope that makes sense.

ok
I use fine grit sandpaper. 600 grit is what I normally use.
find the angle by rocking the blade on the paper. You should be able to feel when you got the edge flat against it. Use soft pressure . It should only take a few passes over the paper . I finish mine by taking the burr of the edge off by laying the blades flat on the paper and sanding inside surfaces of them.
it works for me but I'm sure that someone knows a better way.
again I hope I sort of make sense.

the es4 stripper goes from 20 to 12 gauge . I wish it went down to 10. It should work fine for me though. Most of the wiring I mess with is automotive and normally fairly thin so I should be ok.

Actually, the MUT Shield fits the NN MP600's ;)
According to my rough measurement just now, the MP600 is 5.1 inches long, so it might or might not fit the Skinth Plus, I think it will fit the XL though. At least, that would make sense :P

I tested it on some telephone wire and the wire I use for water meter remote readers and it worked awesome.
my st300 has a hard time stripping the little stuff. The es4 will be part if my work edc from now on.

I must say, I am surprised just how beastly and solid it is, yet it only weighed in at 8.8oz, which is the same as the new scaled TTi. The thing that saves the TTi though, is that with a pocket clip, it's not nearly as noticeable as the Supertool will be in my back pocket.
However, I am really impressed with it, even though it's more tool than I'd likely need, and it looks huge in my small(ish) hands. I love the solid snap of each tool when it locks into place, however, the unlocking method isn't that great since it requires one to open another tool to a 90o to release the locked tool. It's nothing major really, but potentially risky if a blade is deployed...just have to be careful. Speaking of the blades: both of them are razor sharp. One major plus to the locking mechanism is that it doesn't interfere with the aesthetics like all the other locks on other models do. I really like that it resembles a much beefier PST.
Overall, I really do like the Supertool, and wouldn't mind carrying it, provided I can deal with the feeling of it in my back pocket next to my wallet. However, after the newness wears off, I will likely put it in one of our vehicles as it seems like a good MT for that duty. I'll see how it does with some regular carry first though.

Ok, I love this one too :D There are only two real negatives to it: There is some play in the handles when it's closed, and the fact that it won't work with a pocket clip. Neither are major issues, but I've gotten accustomed to carrying the TTi with the pocket clip, so it's too bad. I knew this would be the case (same with the Supertool locks). The Wave's size and weight should help to make this less of an issue.
I get a kick out of the fact that there are four flathead drivers, but I don't mind. The blades are razor sharp just like the Supertool's. Pliers operate smoothly, and the non-locking tools snap into place solidly enough. The diamond file looks more...well...diamondy if that makes any sense, than any other diamond file on any MTs I've owned.

I got my Crunch in and I will carry it along with whatever MT I carry for work. My initial impressions are; this is a super neat tool with a very nice selection of implements. My plier tips are pretty misaligned but I'm not all that bothered. It should serve me well I believe as the tool seems pretty sturdily built. I like the bit driver aspect it may possibly cut out my little driver set I carry when I want a slimmer carry.I love the Crunch, it has everything you need on it. My only complaint is it takes so long to open it into pliers then you have to un-screw the bolt to get the right size, etc...
Post by: Aloha on April 19, 2014, 05:33:19 PM
I was carrying a small vise grip in my tool belt so this will be interesting to see how i get along with these. I was playing with it last night and yes it does take a bit to finally get them into a useable configuration but the neatness factor is huge so it will be fun messing with them, till of course they stop being fun and possibly get annoying. I do wish already that the sheath ( I got leather ) held the tool in the open and ready position.I got my Crunch in and I will carry it along with whatever MT I carry for work.

Greg this is only the second one of these I`ve seen on ebay. The other was several years ago and I got out bid on it. Since this one had the sheath with it I deceided to make a serious run at it. Stack has one in the PST Chronology Project on page 19.

Got the Raptor today. I'm liking it so far. The only thing I had a problem with is it is very difficult to put it in the sheath while the shears are deployed. The handles are a bit "wobbly" as well. I might try and tighten the screw that is holding on the oxygen wrench to see if it help tighten it up, but it might make the oxygen wrench very tight.

My very latest LM is a Squirt PS4. It's a very well built tool at first impression, no major complaints but I have some difficulty with its file. It's more of a mechanical file and cannot be used for fingernails. It is for this reason that I would probably not carry it. Still, I'm glad to have it for the collection :D
Yea the file is pretty course which is strange on such a small tool and file. Definitely not great for finger nails.

I find that file odd as well. It really doesn't make sense to have a file like that on such a keychain tool. The nail file/nail cleaner tool that the Squirts used to have would have been so much better. That was the main detractor for me as well, but I did put it on keychain duty as it is still a good little tool for that :tu:

They have been secretly re-routed to me and are now in my possession. >:D

I have 2 more on the way...and 2 very special Leathermans that have decided to go to the West coast of the US for some unknown reason, a worry that I won't get them safe and sound home.
they appear to have taken a scenic route, but the latest update has them North of the border now... they should be in your hands soon. :cheers:

I just scored a LM Sidekick from the local markets in as new condition for $30. I'm pretty happy with that, the collection is rapidly growing. Got a NIB Vic Super Tinker yesterday, and have a LM Mirca on order and an Alox Electrician arriving hopefully tomorrow! The bug has bitten! :DYou're off to a great start! Now you need a Rebar :D

I often wounder why LM did not just update the locks on the Pulse & ST200 instead of coming out with the Kick, Fuse, Blast, Core.

An immaculate PST with a mirror finish.
2 Squirt ES4's red and black
A blue Squirt P4
A pink Squirt S4 for my bride
A dark blue almost purple Micra with the plastic scales :(
A Core in fair condition
A brand new Rebar
And a Mini Tool that had seen better days. But after a few hours with the dremel and some scotchbrite. I got her looking like she just came out of the factory.
I also ordered a piranha and received an empty envelope with a hole ripped in the corner. I was crushed, that's the one I was looking forward to the most. I've wanted one for years and had finally talked myself into spending the cash. I got my money back but would have much rather had the piranha.

I've been busy so I've made time to take a snap of my new beauty. What a great tool and the new blade exchanger is AWESOME so far. I couldnt help myself because the Surge is one bad arse tool and I couldn't be away from it for long. I'll fix my old Surge soon enough but for now this ebony goddess is occupying all my work time.
The great thing is I can use my Tshanks without issue and modification.

I just picked up the new wave and was a little disappointed with the bottle opener, anyone else think its hard to use?
Yeah, never liked the so called combo bottle/can opener. It's a can opener, it's designed to open cans, not bottles. Why they call it a bottle opener I don't know.
Well you can always do it like this. >:D

Most of us have multiple bottle openers on us anyways, some keyring style tool, prybar, small Swiss army knife (SAK).

The gerber artifact is a sweet little tool that fits the bill perfectly, the replaceable blades are prefect. Plus the pry bar is great for getting dirt from underneath your finger nails :)

The Japanese PST arrived today, looks like it's been well used/loved; blade sharpened thin, Phillips screwdriver rounded, small screwdriver chipped. Other than that it's Great! Gave it a few squirts of oil, pliers now bleeding rust.
So how many Japanese PSTs does that make for you? Very nice :tu:

My Leatherman 1 Pocket Tool arrived today. It is on my keychain and ready for action.
I just got a 5 and it went straight from the package to my keychain. I'm unsure how long it will stay. It might be a little wide. Il know after I carry it a little if it bugs me or not.

Very nice Bonjoey. I've just ordered myself one of the new S2's. I thought about the CS4 but decided I wanted it to be extra thin.The older ones did but they did away with them. Here have a link (http://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,51919.0.html) to chako's thread on pocket sized leathermans.

I just got my my "new" used 1995 pst in the mail today. I can't be more happy, as there is not a scratch on it. Heck even the knife is razor sharp, looks like Christmas came early boys. :-) the problem is its in too nice of condition, I'm not sure if I can use it. I bought it as an edc, as I did not want to use my pre 1992.

@leathermon, nice looking PST. I can totally relate to not wanting to use some, ok who am I kidding, many of my tools :whistle:. I do however use a JPST for my off day carry.
I received my BTN tools today and I'm very happy with them. I cannot wait to see what feed back LM gets and how these tools eventually evolve. I really like the #2 for some reason. My picture can out very blurry so I'll snap another tomm.

I have not bought a new Leatherman since March... up until to day that is :D. I picked up a like new BO Fuse with a MOLLE sheath for $15. Couldn't pass that deal up :cheers:
That's a killer deal. :tu:
Post by: Monrogue on June 06, 2014, 02:28:55 PM
However, it was just about time to leave, so I cleaned it up as it had some dirt in it, and left work. I enjoyed fiddling with it a bit last night, and I really liked it, so I'm looking to get one. Anyway, I just got into work a little bit ago, and figured I should do the right thing and sent an email to everyone in my building asking if anyone was missing a Leatherman. A few minutes later, a woman came down to my office and was very thankful I found it. She hadn't even realized she lost it until sometime last night.
So now I'm looking to get a red one. I've found a few on eBay, and they're cheap, but of course they're marked up with chips in the paint and whatnot. To be expected for a keychain tool, and not a big deal I suppose as long as the tools themselves are in good condition.

@Monrogue :tu: good to know there are good folks out there. My faith is strengthened when people do the right thing. It's cool it was a LM carrying woman! Good for you buddy for getting that little guy back home. You can find a lot of them all over flea bay especially along with other Squirts and Micras. I picked up 2 P4's and a Micra all in very nice shape for $9 each.
Thanks buddy, it does feel good to reunite someone with a lost item. I thought of it from my perspective of how I would feel if I discovered I lost one of mine and hoped someone found it and would return it. And yeah, it was funny that it was a woman (nothing against the women as I know some carry and some are members here ;)), but I just didn't expect it to be her. I figured it was a certain guy as I found it near his vehicle, so I was surprised when she came down.
So now my latest will indeed be a red Squirt S4 that I just grabbed on eBay. Supposed to be in good, fairly unmarked condition, so we'll see.

Post by: Monrogue on June 06, 2014, 06:43:51 PM
It has a couple features that I prefer over my TTi with regular pliers (no cap crimper) and the regular serrated blade (no cutting hook). I originally wanted the hook, but not the cap crimper, but you can't get that without modding. However, I really like the TTi's new scales and looks overall over the AL. Still, the AL is cool looking with the black scales offset by the SS tools and nameplate. Looks better with the black pocket clip too. The TTi is so slightly thicker and heavier as well (0.2oz heavier). I do feel that the TTi is more durable or something, but that's due to the scales. The AL's scales just don't have that same feel to them, but I don't do anything serious to worry about much real damage to them.
So I think I'm going to give it a go with the AL and see how it goes. I think that overall, it's the better Charge for my tastes, but only by a little. With that in mind, I won't be surprised if I swap them every so often and never completely decide on one or the other ;)

I think the only reason these aren't gone already is they failed to list the title with "PST". Anyhow, I'm glad to have a couple for the collection :D

Post by: captain spaulding on June 08, 2014, 04:54:10 AM
I'm a lost cause. I sold my NIB backup Blast because I wanted to get a new Juice S2 (which should arrive early next week) for $90USD (they're much more expensive than that over here)... immediately regretted it and ordered another NIB one from Ebay for 1/2 the price.
I kept thinking "what if I decide to carry my Blast then I lose it?! Then I don't have another one!!!"... jeez...

Thank you. After seeing Chako's Charge/Wave series I have a ways to go but the hunting is always fun.

Yes the Wave is very polished ( by me ) but not as polished as the factory polished 25th Anniversary.

Actually, I was asking about the Anniversary one. I figured you polished it as I knew you polished the other one. So that was factory polished then. Nice looking Waves and Charges though :tu:

I'm borrowing it for a review I plan on doing latter this summer from a member.
I might have a hard time returning it.
I like it Alot more than I thought I would.
what a awesome tool.
my hands are black from its new black oxide finish its ranking way hi on my fiddle factor chart.
its reminding me of my oht and how much I liked its oh tools.
I'm unsure of how its gonna work once it gets dirty. I normally prefer inside opening tools but I got to try a wave style tool at work. It may not be a big issue. Time will tell.

Managed to hold out about a month, then got a Wingman... it was so cheap....for parts for a future mod... to feel the weight and size... to ...to.... I wanted it. :-[
Ok, give it to me straight Letherman veterans. How do you stop? And should I even try?

I was wondering, Cap'n, how are you liking that so far?
Well I have not had a chance to use it yet so I can't comment on the functionality. It carries very well and disappears in the pocket. The bit fits in the holder well and won't slip out either in the stored position or in the "in use" position. Time will tell if the "in use" position will stay as solid once the bit gets worn down a bit. It is pretty small so I wouldn't really choose to use it for bit driving if I had the choice, but it is a good small backup to have. I will give you some more input if it gets some use.

New Charge TTi came in today, loving it... It's my first Leatherman. The only other MT I had before was a Gerber MP600 (which definitely was nice) but I can tell just by holding it that the Charge is in a class of its own!
First off welcome to the forum. :tu:
I'm glad you like your Charge. They are a nice piece of Multitool goodness. :tu: If you think the Charge is in a class of its own you should try a Victorinox Swisstool Spirit. ;)

Very nice. :drool:
The OG Wave is one of the Leathermans I have never owned, but wish I did. Let me know what you think when you get it. Looks to be in great shape. Congrats! :tu:

Sweet new OG-Wave Steve; looks like you really scored there :tu:
Same to you Detron with the Pulse :tu:. That's one of the retired LMs I'm still on the fence about trying to get.
well, it has a diamond file, is basically reminiscent of a PST or PST II (closed shape), except for the rocker locks.
I like it, not as much as the PST itself, but it is really cool

Yeah, I've been curious how the rocker locks feel. Still, it's basically a PSTII with locking tools, and I'm not sure I really can justify buying one at this point, especially since most of any of them I've seen aren't cheap. Maybe eventually, but it's not a high priority on my list at the moment.

This will be one of my most prized tools. They're getting harder to get in this condition at a decent price. I think I just got lucky with this.

Me too. It's really not a major deal to me like it was initially, and it sounds like it's rather common, so that helps me to feel better that I didn't necessarily get a dud. They are indeed hard to get new for an affordable price. I lucked out bigtime as mine was just under $40 with shipping included. You even got the original sheath as well, which I did not, but that's fine as I don't use them. Although it would have been nice to have just to put it in when not in use, but that's ok. I can't wait for you to get yours though :D

Knife blades on the original Wave still lock ;) It's just the inner tools that aren't locking. So it's actually exactly the wrong way around for a UK friendly MT :P

First impressions:
Sweet little tools! I don't own any Atwoods for comparison, but these are very nice. :tu:
A great deal of form and function overlap between the various models though. ::) A more fitting numbering system would have been Leatherman 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0, 6.1, 6.2, 6.3, 6.4 :D
A big :twak: to the person in the shipping department who just threw all 20 tools into the box with no packing material. >:( The whole box "jingled" when I picked it up, with all the tools inside banging against one another. :P Fortunately no dents or dings though. (lucky for them, grrrr)

These are not complete tools, are add-ons, but I just picked up two Leatherman Tool Adapters at a hardware store at the beach where we were vacationing. One is for the Wave (probably the original Wave, not the one I have), and the other for the PST, Supertool, etc. These are both discontinued, and looking at the amount of dust that was on the packaging of both, were probably lying around a while!
Good catch, these are less common nowadays. :tu:

I quite like it. Never thought I would like the LMs with the Zytel inserts but it is better than I thought.
Was bidding on a BLASR from the same seller and bought the FUSE when I was outbid on that.
Actually like the tool load on the Fuse, all you need and none you don't for light day carry.
Post by: sawman on July 01, 2014, 11:53:46 PM
The FUSE I bought on eBay arrived and it's in as new condition. Far better than the pic's and description led me to believe.I'll never get why LM discontinued the Fuse. It's one of my favorites. I love the long razor sharp blade and the entire tool loadout.

I have a wee obsession with retired LMs ::) :D. I held off getting a knifeless Fuse for a LONG time, I relented just before Christmas as the price was resonable & it got me entered in a Oz Leatherman promotion to win a Jeep.
I didn't win the Jeep BUT a person in my state did & that is how I got to meet Tim Leatherman for a second time. He hand delivered the Jeep to the winner 8) & then did a promotional meet & greet in the city , which included engraving LMs 8) 8)

Haha, I guess you are, because I don't know what you mean ??? That may have been a good idea though, but I would have had to give up one of the four outer tools, which I wanted to keep. Plus I likely would have SAK scissors on me as well :tu:

Well now I'm even more confused. Because if your ReCharge still has the original scissors, then were they filed down to accommodate the Rebar pliers shutting?
Oh I see what you meant. Yeah, the scissors had to be ground down a bit to allow for the Rebar pliers. Not a big deal to me though, as those scissors are basically just a spare set, and they still work just fine :tu:

That makes sense then. All this time I wrongfully assumed you were getting one like Kampfer's "Mini Surge". That uses the Wingman scissors.
That isn't a bad idea though :think: It would make the ReCharge a great stand alone MT to carry, or great if one uses scissors a lot and wants a couple different sets of them, like one clean and one dirty.

They're great scissors, much better than the standard Wave/Charge ones.

I have mixed feelings about it. My first multitool was the swisstool whichI received just a couple days before the squirt, so maybe I can't help but compare them - which is unfair to the squirt
Still it somewhat didn't match my expectations
...
I'm not carrying it - preferring a SAK to it - and not giving any love to it really (and I feel sad about it).
maybe I need to learn it a bit more?

Scissors transferred from a Fuse. The cap lifter had to swap handles with the lanyard ring to make sufficient room for the scissors but an unanticipated bonus there, my nails couldn't reach the cap-lifter inboard nail nick but now the nail nick is outboard, though unlike the main blade it doesn't quite align with a finger groove. But this is one occasion when clumping is a benefit. I think LM could have done better with an aligned outboard nail nick on the Kick/Fuse cap lifter.
I love the completely smooth snag-free exterior of the Kick when folded. Given it is legal UK carry I'll alternate EDC with my Juice S2.
(just realised I didn't picture the lanyard ring but it is there outboard of the scissors)

I have been carrying an S2 for the last couple of months but some thread here or at the other place peaked my interest in a PSTII. Won one on the bay and received it today. I had a PST from 1995 or so but it's long gone and I have had other newer Leathermans and Vics since then. I really dig this minimalist simple design. It's ~1oz heavier than my S2 but has some pluses over it I think. I'll see if pocket carrying it becomes annoying.
Very cool APS. I hope you're liking it as much as I am mine.
It shouldn't be annoying carrying it... it's a minuscule amount longer and much thinner.

It's first format had the large and small bit drivers out of a Wave,as well as scissors . The bit driver was scavenged for the P.U.G

I like the idea of a more useful Kick for use in the UK - adding a file would be very nice and maybe scissors too if I can squeeze them in. I'm going to try a SOG file first because you can get them from Heinnie.

What a nice surprise that one was. Having owned a large and heavy ST300 this came as a 'refreshment'.
I'd say Rebar would make a perfect EDC MT for many although it's hard to beat Wave and Skeletool in that category, IMO.

Whoa; that's unreal -- how'd you find that?? Someone isn't paying attention to the details, but obviously you did. :tu:
Perhaps we all should start doing 'Sidekick' searches on FleEzbay!
I don't want to speak out of turn, but do you mind saying how much you paid? I admit to being totally, morbidly curious... >:D

Just came up in my normal Ebay search (I don't search for specific models, partly because of listings like this one). I could tell straight away from the pics that it wasn't a Sidekick so had a closer look. Seller accepted my offer for $19 USD :D Postage is still costing me $25 USD but still a good deal.

does your Core have a sort of reverse belly? mine does, but it looks like a factory edge. basically, if I lay the cutting edge on the table, the area near the tang touches the table, and the area about an inch from the tip touches, but the area between misses the table by a millimeter or so.
sort of like the bottom one in this picture, but very mild, (this was the best way to show you what I mean)

It's a solid tool. I'd heard lots of stories about the locks breaking, bought mine cheap when they were being discontinued. I was hoping to beat it hard in work for a few years then trade it in for a 300 when the inevitable break happened. It never broke, and still comes with me to work every day. If it broke now I'd have to ask for a repair for sentimental reasons.Just got my first Core in the mail today. (pics later when I feel up to it)

it was on a locked shelf, and the price sticker SKU matched the Wave SKU, but the price was wrong.
the guy rang it up and went, HOLD UP, that is not the price I just saw, so he got the manager, and they gave it to me at the great price, I did not even have to ask.

I never go "You have to....," or "But the price says...."
this time the clerk said "you deserve it at that price" Manager agreed. all they asked of me is if they could have the bar code off of the back of the box (physically removed) so they could show that they Sku and barcode matched. I cut it right off for them without a care in the world. :D

Most come with that little recurve. I think the idea is the belly will be used and sharpened more so they give you a little extra steel there to begin with. Nice score with that Wave.

Im really enjoying it. Its so compact that its a no brainer to throw it in my pocket, and i really like the outboard tools. I love my micra but the inboard tools on such a small tool are a bit of a pain.

If Fishpond is anything like it was when I used to work there, if anything isn't stocked in their warehouse (i.e. 24 hour shipping) or ships from overseas, you'll probably never see it.
Even the staff there knew not to buy anything like that. People would buy textbooks for uni months in advance, they'd keep getting emails saying the product was delayed, then they'd cancel the order.
Boo Fishpond.

About the size of a 1 litre juice carton, maybe bigger, with a good lid and a drawstring bit inside to keep the weather out. Made by Mil-tec I think - looks like good quality. I will use it for hiking to keep camera, hat, sunglasses, snacks, SAK, etc close to hand without needing to take my pack off.

That's funny...I don't remember the Sidekick having a bit driver :cheers:
So this arrived today. In good condition over all, just needs a clean/sharpen/lube. The case is a bit roached but I'm not going to use it anyway.
The blade/file holder on this seems to rattle a lot compare to my 2013 Surge, is this normal for this model?

Post by: babola on August 18, 2014, 11:41:01 AM
I just got my second mini-tool, with no date stamp, so i can assume a pre-1992 which is pretty much like winning the lottery.
Very nice find, Mon... ;)
Mine is 0298 and while not as rare as yours, it's still in mint condition :)
Got it back in '99 as a corporate gift from Hewlett Packard, which it has stamped on one scale making it slightly rarer than stock standard, I guess.

Look what I got from the mail today!!!
Very nice. The Kick was my first Leatherman. After losing my beaten up original it started me on the path to collecting them.
I still have a mint one, but I never use it nowadays.

I received a long time sought after SuperTool 200.
I´v been searching for a good while and lost one on the way.
It does look sweet, pics will follow.

Nice :tu:. Super Tool 200s are in my top ten list of favorite Leathermans. The lock release mechanisms are a bit awkward to me but that's part of what makes them so cool. Looking forward to the pictures :salute:

Yes, great catch :salute: ( I didn't pick up on the ground-out "USA" on the plier heads either)
Post by: Mr Biriyani on August 29, 2014, 12:09:17 PM
Took me a while to get around to take some snaps of my new Supertool 200.
But here they are.
I like the technical look of it and it has a little special slot in the handle for the lanyard ring to come out that i think it shares with the Pulse.
But somehow it´s more noticeable here. I like that.
It´s is in great shape seems like it´s never used.
And my small line of supertools got somewhat completed.

Never noticed that one before.

I'd feel bad about it :cry: (for a few seconds at least).Just picked up a new Wave in the box, for $9.97 at Walmart.
it was on a locked shelf, and the price sticker SKU matched the Wave SKU, but the price was wrong.
the guy rang it up and went, HOLD UP, that is not the price I just saw, so he got the manager, and they gave it to me at the great price, I did not even have to ask.

I never go "You have to....," or "But the price says...."
this time the clerk said "you deserve it at that price" Manager agreed. all they asked of me is if they could have the bar code off of the back of the box (physically removed) so they could show that they Sku and barcode matched. I cut it right off for them without a care in the world. :D
Great find, that's a STEAL!!!

A original pst for a like new sideclip.
I'm very happy with the trade and the sideclip. He's also very happy with the pst. He didn't use the clip and he likes the pst tool set better.

The one I had on the Rebar was long enough. So, the Rebar awl can be fitted onto a Charge? Hmmm, maybe I can do the same with the Wave, as well...
Post by: zoidberg on September 09, 2014, 10:15:52 AM
Yes, it fits the Charge and Wave. :tu:How long do you need? First ones a cut down mod, second is from a Rebar.Well, my latest LM was a Rebar which I do not have anymore because it's stolen! :rant: :rant: :rant:
Damn!
Now I'm stuck between a Wave and a SOG S60. The only thing holding me back from buying the Wave is the incredible lack of an awl! I've seen awl mods but they were all too short. So, still dunno...
you can make one to fit in the bit adapter

I have been keen to have a look at one of the retired Leatherman hunting knives & the Steens came up on a Aussie knife forum for a ok price & I jumped at it.
The rest all together ;

The quality is top notch and the overall feel is solid. I wouldn't compare this to a Wingman or Rebar but the glass reinforced handle material seems pretty tough.The mail man dropped this off to me today. I'm very impressed with it so far :D

Looking great !
How would you say the quality or the overall feeling of the tool is?
Is it like a Wingman or more towards a let´s say a Rebar ?
Cool they are finally out, my kid wants one to put in his school backpack " no blade of course ". How is it ? Would you recommend it ?

Congrats on the Fuse. I like the packaging as well, but sadly that was the first time I had ever got a MT packaged like that from Leatherman.
Thanks, maybe it's a new push to change their packaging. Maybe they're working on the multi-MT boxes as well, wouldn't want to leave out the people that spend MORE money ;)

It does have a saw. With today's smurfed up schools thinking everything under the sun is a weapon it could possibly be a problem. Just a heads up.
Its really a shame. I remember carrying a pocket knife to school every day as well as most other kids and no one ever got stabbed or it used against them. Times have changed.

I agree. I was surprised by how much I like my original Supertool ('97). I just got it earlier this year, looking like it had never been used. They're a tough, solid multitool :tu:
Post by: Monrogue on September 19, 2014, 02:46:08 AM
It's very smooth with the flicky plier action, and I love that it's got the sprung pliers. I'm surprised by just how short the blades are, but they're sufficient for my typical use. I think I'm going to want one, but I'll see how it goes over the next several days.

I'm still undecided on whether to keep it or not. On one hand, if I ever work for some beigeist, easily offended hippies that can't tell the difference between a broad sword and a butter knife it'd be ideal... but that's not likely to happen.
So I'll think about it for a week or so, but I might be able to offer it to one of our UK members because of the sorry state of their knife laws. We'll see :) I'll open another thread if that's the case.

It was a bargain that just keeps giving, a great bit of luck. I was browsing a motorcycle forum I hardly ever look at and up popped a pair of nearly new motorcycle cases for silly money, £60. Bit the guys hand off after asking a few questions to make sure they were kosher, I knew him vaguely anyway. He even delivered them personally to my place!
They looked new, like they cost the guy £350 yesterday new. Opened them up and inside were the inner bags which are £40/50 each! BONUS! Ive been after some for my existing cases and these fit nicely so I've got free bags! Sold the cases for £180, ½rrp so passed a bargain on to another lucky guy.
This was a few months ago, I first came to use the bags last week and looked in the side pockets for the shoulder straps and found a new condition LM sideclip!
Got hold of the original seller and he's not interested! More money than brains or as I like to think, very generous. Owe him a beer.
I've used a mk1 Wave for years but its always put in luggage or the bike toolroll, I'm more likely to have the sideclip on me when I need it as its a legal carry here, the wave isnt

My first and only Leatherman. A SS Wave purchased second hand off Joel.
Very impressed with the OH opening knife and I have to admit coming into this I did not think I would like it. Are they all this smooth and easy to open or has it been broke in a little you think? Came to me very sharp (thanks Joel) which is good cause every time I am about to buy a Edge Pro Apex another SAK or MT come along that I just have to buy.
Excellent condition. Like new for all intents and purposes.
Initial thoughts.
I am a huge Spyderco fanboi so don't tell my friends on the Spydie forum but my first thought after playing with the OHO blade for a while was "I could get away with just carrying this one tool"
Eye glass mini drive or whatever it is called. Worthless. For me anyhow. Mod time I suppose. Any good idea of what to switch it out with?
Scissors are win and the large flat head screwdriver would make a nifty mini pry bar I think.
Now for the thing that has me the most excited. Well maybe tied with the knife. The nylon case. Specifically the little stretch bit on the side that seemingly were made for my little AAA flashlight. All I need to do now is find a fire sourse of some sort that will fit in the other stretchy thing and I am all set in one pouch! Light, Fire. Blade and Multi Tool.
Anyhow thanks again Joel for the hook up and before you guys get all up in my business pictures will be up tomorrow when BOB comes back out. Here is one for now so you can see how I feel sporting this beast.

I was playing, I mean inspecting my new toy, I mean tool and was like how do I tell which knife I am about to open? Not a fan of serrated blades. Wen I noticed a little bumpy bit at the top of the outside of the serrated blade and smooth on the plain edge.
Well done Leatherman, simple and effective. :tu:
Do wish the blade was some nice S90V or even S30V. Guess you can't have it all and I am sure whatever this one is made of is ok.

Will do. How does one have a spare S30V blade? Someone make them or he didn't need it on his Charge?
Post by: HarleyXJGuy on October 31, 2014, 01:46:06 PM
texastoolcrafters on ebay sometimes offer S30V blades to suit LM Charges/Waves(new) . I think they are left over from when they are modding Charges with damascus blades.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/390961885644
Nice. S30V for only 24 bones.
I just had an idea. Could I replace both my normal plain edge blade AND the serrated on with S30V plain edge blades?

He picked up a bulk ebay lot with reconditioned blades. A few of us bought some off him though so I'm not sure if any are left. There are also 154CM blades, they are really good too, I might even have one around here somewhere.

If so I think I will just replace the mini driver and the serrated blade with an Awl and S30V blade.
What in the world kinda bit do I need to remove these strange little connector screw things?
Also thanks for all the info.

The blade that comes stock on a Wave is the 154CM?

Nar, all SE blades are 420HC. Wave PE is 420HC, Charge Ti PE is 154CM and the Charge TTi PE is S30V.
The small bit cleans out a chainsaw bar groove really well.
And you're welcome.

Rebuild the Rebar with the Wave parts and keep it for backup or give it to a mate or whatever.
Just an idea.
Post by: HarleyXJGuy on October 31, 2014, 02:23:46 PM
Buy a Rebar, gets you an awl and plier head with 154CM replaceable wire cutters.
Rebuild the Rebar with the Wave parts and keep it for backup or give it to a mate or whatever.
Just an idea.
Already have a Rebar on the way, but it is a BO model that will not be modded for reasons that will become obvious soon enough.
Would love to score a SS Rebar for just what you suggested though. Ton of young Soldiers here I could donate the Rebar to after I score the bits I need.
The Wave has no cap lifter? Or is the can opener multi function like some of the SAKs?

Its a multi function opener. There is also a lanyard ring tucked away on one of the handles.

You can buy them as extras but there is one already on it. Look under the saw and file. Use the small bit (thats one use for it) to push it out.

1) sharp edges
2) bosh T-shank blades didn't fit precisely (it have noticable play). Usage of T-shankThis was main reason why I wanted Surge.
3) replacable small bit driver what is not unusable for my needs
I compared Surge to my ST300 and decided.

I finally got a OG Wave. They are not hard to find or anything it just always got pushed to the back burner for years, but I traded for one and I quite like it. I like how it is smaller than the new Wave. Nothing against the new Waves size as I like that in its own right, but the smaller size is nice.
Congrats on getting an OG Wave Cap :tu: I like mine, but sadly it's one of the ones I put away in storage until we get into our house. The slimmer size and lighter weight is nice, but I do wish they had the removable pocket clip.

That is the one downside I noticed. With its smaller size it would be excellent if it had the pocket clip option like the newer Wave.

If you want a compact tool with locking pliers then it is hard to go past a Crunch, but if you don't need locking pliers then they have a limited toolset and are a bit fiddly to set up the pliers ready for use. That being said, I do like my Crunches, and have one in each of my vehicles.
Agreed it's hard to get much both an a crunch
I had to fund bike somehow.
I did get a awesome bike out of it.

I actually used the LM Monarch in AAA format. Paired nicely, single mode, easy tail-switch operation. Most of the people I was gifting too were not very gadgety, so I wanted to keep it simple. Plus they were stupid cheap at a local retailer :D.

However, when I had a good look at it I got a pleasant surprise: all the marking on the handles (including the rulers) was laser printed/etched, not stamped like it usually is on production LMs. So, have I scored a prototype or what ? ??? :D
The other unusual LM in this box was a Squirt P4 with "Thunder Purple" scales :D
Thanks to CJ for these :tu:
Post by: zoidberg on December 04, 2014, 08:20:56 AM
Just received a Super Tool 200 SS (std pliers, not CC). I bought it because I thought the variant with "Leatherman, USA" around the pliers pivot was rare (I've since seen several of these for sale, so obviously not really that rare).

No date codes at all (and I looked carefully) ???
Sorry, can't do pics. The wording and spacing of the markings on the handles seem identical to the stamped ones, but the letters look "thinner" (less bold).
I'm definitely leaning to this being a prototype or pre-production tool. I might send a PM to CJ and see if he can tell me anything about it.

I was a little shocked to see the full 3d philips head on it. It's very nice. I was expecting the flat phillips that I've seen on all the other Squirts.
It's a red Radio Shack branded one.
That one is the scissor model right?
Are there folks out here who are not electricians who do so much wire stripping they have to carry a tool like this all the time?
I doubt it, but one can never be to prepared I guess. In all honesty I only really use the tip of the pliers on the small tools like this anyways so if I had one it would not be much of a problem having wire strippers for the rest of the length.

My latest is a pair of BO Rebar handles with pliers removed, and a BO CC head from a Fuse or Wave or something. To be honest I got these a while back but have only just fitted the CC head this weekend. Now I just have to decide what I'm doing with the loadout in the handles :whistle:
Knifeless, with scissors, large bit driver, no saw and 7/8/10/13mm wrenches. 8) And a pocket clip. :pok:

Knifeless with scissors is certainly tempting. Who's got a spare pair of BO Wave/Fuse/Blast scissors? Anyone?
I have got a BO small flat driver from a Blast which is better than the stock Rebar one for electrical work, so they might get swapped over. I'll prob keep saw and file, but transfer them over to the knife blade positions if I go knifeless. However, every time I pick it up I keep thinking "If I'm going to carry this, why not carry my BO Spirit S instead", so I don't know how much time and effort I'll spend on this to be honest

I keep this one with my CT Lite in my laptop bag, takes up less space compared to full sized wire strippers. I keep a Squirt ES4 (adds scissors, drops 3D phillips) in my guitar bag in case I need to fix any guitar pedals when I'm out. And honestly, I used these around the house more than regular wire strippers, well, because I like them :) But no, they don't get carried around all the time.

I get that too. Pick up my Wave or Rebar, end up with my Spirit. Super Tool 300, Swisstool. :-\ I like the customisable nature of the Leatherman tools, and appreciate the tool loads, design and history; I just prefer the Victorinoxes.

I mean if you do not dig you Rebar and it is stainless I could find it a new home for the right price.

As I see it ...
Reasons to carry Rebar instead of Spirit S:
Supremely better for cutting stranded wire
Better lanyard for working at heights and such
Cheaper
Reasons to carry Spirit S instead of Rebar:
Much better ergonomics
Outboard tools - easier access and better orientated knives/saw
Pry tool
Chisel/scraper
More flat drivers
Better awl especially for narrower holes sizes
Both are good tools though, subject to user preferences. I can't see me choosing it as pocket tool of the day, even if I was to make it knifeless, so I might chuck it in my bike bag. It'll get very little (if any) use in there, but at least there's a half decent tool in the bag should I ever need one anywhere

Does the Spirit S have a bit driver like the Rebar? If not I would put that as a Rebar plus.
Sigh I am really looking hard at the Spirit so I am going to need you to talk me out of it now.

The Sprits (all versions) don't have the bit driver, but the Rebar doesn't either. The Rebar does have a very good phillips screwdriver - IMO better than the one on the Spirit. The Leatherman removeable bit driver fits the Rebar, but also fits the Spirit too. Win-win. :tu:
That answers my question, thanks.

I think the Phillips comparison may depend on the screws you encounter, so is a bit subjective really. I've never had an issue with the Phillips on the Spirit that I can recall, although I've never done a side by side comparison over a range of screws. Plus if you count the bit adaptor for the LM Phillips, you need to count the bit wrench or ratchet from Vic. I consider the bit wrench vastly superior, and it's great for high torque work and for where access is extremely limited and there isn't the clearance to get a full multitool in.
Similar comparisons could also be personal preference such as the Rebar has a wider faced file, which may mean quicker working for some, or less able to get in narrow spaces for others. The LM saw cuts on the pull stroke but is a thinner section and therefore has to remove less material than the bidirectional saw on the Spirit ... and so on

Got gifted a Charge Ti some years back, only recently started using it. Bit too nice for EDC at work so I picked up a $20 Wingman during the Amazon black friday-ish sales.
I know it's had very mixed reviews on here but I think it's amazingly good for the money, not perfect but more than adequate for my needs.
Now what to buy next...

Yup :tu: I decided to give it another go. I got rid of the one you have because I initially though I could mod it somehow (I forget how - but it might have been adding PST II scissors) but it turned out I couldn't so I let it go. After I started carrying the Knifeless Octane (no scissors) and a couple of PSTs (one of which has a NiteIze clip added), I figured I might give a Sideclip another go and see how they all compare .... and this one turned up. Since I've had it though, all I've done is open some cellophane food packaging and cut a paperclip :-\

Picked up one of the new Juice C2's to see how well the improved drivers help opening and not stabbing your thumb. First thing that happened when I went to deploy the drivers was they started to come out, my nail slipped off and stabbed myself in the thumb. Even with the aligned notch to deploy the drivers the length of the drivers the retention on them still makes them bite your thumb. Kind of disappointing since Leatherman spent all that time and money on developing the new Juice line and it still has the same issue as before. If the retention on them was not incredibly stiff it would help, but every juice I have owned is like this. I also hate the neutered blade on the new juice line.
Ok Cappy put the Juice down and slowly back away. You got to learn to let it go, not every LM has to be a homerun.
Need a light carry tool? Skelly it up.

Oh i'm not mad about it at all. If I was you would know. I just find it funny that the thing they spend time and money trying to improve is just as bad if not worse than before.
The Skeletool is definitely the last thing I need right now. I have a love hate relationship with it. I would love to have one when I do not own one, but every time I buy one I remember how much I hate it.

What do you hate about it?
Does not seem like something someone would hate. Got the good bit driver with some reach, oho blade and light weight with a pocket clip.
I could see take it or leave it attitude but wonder what makes you dislike it so much. Did it make you bleed too?

I do not like how you can only use the bit driver with one handle fully extended or at a 90 degree angle.
Isn't that how all the bit drivers work? To much reach or leverage for your tastes? :pok:
The pocket clip is on the wrong handle and the clip does not offer good retention.
Take it off and bend it a little till you get the retention you want? Maybe I am off about this being something that works? Never did it on mine yet.
The second bit is not retained in the handle very well and can be lost.
Ok. I plan to carry bit cards and an extension in a belth sheath so no worries on this front. But as a stand alone tool this could have been desgined better.
I also have had rust issues with the Skeletool and Freestyle.
Lame. Hope this is not a major issue for my Skelly.
The Pliers do not inspire confidence either.
Yeah just got to embrace the fact they are light duty pliers. Kind of something between the ST 300 and the super tweezers on SAKs.

Where would you want the clip to be?
Is this another tip up thing? Please say no.

Let me be more clear. You cannot deploy the bit driver and then close the handle to get a good grip. Reach is good. Turning a tough screw with a skinny little awkward off center handle is not.
Pertaining to the clip thing. Its not a tip up thing. Since I always carry a folder in my right pocket the skeletool would have to be carried in my left pocket. Which would be perfect as the blade would be against the seam, but with the clip being on the wrong handle their is a gap that causes the tool to move, bunch up the pocket, and just be uncomfortable. The clip needs to be close to the seam. Not away from it and with the heft of the Skeletool it makes it even worse.
With the clip retention I am very particular about having extremely tight clips. I have never found a clip to be to tight. Just the nature of the smooth metal clip being against another smooth metal surface the clip could most likely never be tight enough to be good for me.

I've bought it from a website which was selling the charge along with the 21-piece bit kit and a maglite solitaire (which basically came for free, my son says thanks ;)).
Strangely it didn't come with the usual extra bit which come with the charge (but having the 21-piece kit I'm not missing those).
One interesting fact: on the label outside the box you can read: "Charge TTI metric bits"
I wonder if the 21-piece kit also exists in metric form? or maybe it just contains both metrics and, how are they called... imperials? bits?
Anyway, now I've entered the leatherman club for real, I also own a Swisstool and a Squirt PS4, but the squirt is not in the same league as the other two.
What can I say... I haven't used it since I've received it this morning yet, but I've played with it a bit (ok: a LOT :)) and I find it very cool.
I cannot compare it yet to the Victorinox, other than for the fact that it's smaller and lighter. I will try to put it in use as I find an occasion.
Ciao,
Danilo

In on topic news, I picked up a mostly-replacement tool I lost at the theme park. I own a Squirt Es4 now, and I have to say I really dig it. I can guarantee right now it won't replace my Style CS in EDC, but it'll live in my electronics box as practically the only tool I'll need for building, repair and hacking.

check the back of the knife blade. the original Leap has 4 small ridges/bumps on the back of the knife blade, the newer version has 3.

It's next to impossible that anyone got one of the ones that was shipped before the recall. They only made it as far as the vendors before Leatherman recalled them.

there's some useful info in the Mod Squad... there are several different ways you can disassemble it, but maybe start with this thread (http://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,56841.0.html)? there are also plenty of threads to help you out when you're putting the tools back together (http://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,56928.0.html). ;)
good luck, and keep us updated (preferably with more pics!) :D

My ST300 arrived from Rex today! :mail: :woohoo: I love it already!!The ST300 is one of my all-time favorites :tu:.
At first I thought I liked it so much because it's the grandchild of the original Supertool, which was the first multitool I bought (21 years ago), but soon I discovered that it's just because it's one of the best Leatherman tools out there (my humble opinion ;)). I like my new Surge very much, but I still like my ST300 a bit more ;).
P.S. You know I need to see some pics of your ST300, right ? :pok:

I think this will become one of my favourites as well. :tu: I love my ST200, but this just has that extra little beef, and the MUCH better lock release! The bigger cutters are also a huge plus for me. I usually use an MT when doing wiring on the Jeep, and when cutting heavier wire, most have a really hard time with that. I think this will be able to handle it much better than the others. :tu:My ST300 arrived from Rex today! :mail: :woohoo: I love it already!!The ST300 is one of my all-time favorites :tu:.

Plus scissors but with the stupid mini driver.
I think this will become one of my favourites as well. :tu: I love my ST200, but this just has that extra little beef, and the MUCH better lock release! The bigger cutters are also a huge plus for me. I usually use an MT when doing wiring on the Jeep, and when cutting heavier wire, most have a really hard time with that. I think this will be able to handle it much better than the others. :tu:My ST300 arrived from Rex today! :mail: :woohoo: I love it already!!The ST300 is one of my all-time favorites :tu:.
At first I thought I liked it so much because it's the grandchild of the original Supertool, which was the first multitool I bought (21 years ago), but soon I discovered that it's just because it's one of the best Leatherman tools out there (my humble opinion ;)). I like my new Surge very much, but I still like my ST300 a bit more ;).
P.S. You know I need to see some pics of your ST300, right ? :pok:
Pics eh? I just might be able to manage that. :D
ST 300 oh how I pine for thee.
A grown up sized Rebar you say? Sign me up.

Great pics mate :tu:.Thank Eric! :cheers: You're the king of photographing the ST300!! :tu: I can't wait to try and get some pics in the snow with the sun shining, and with my DSLR instead of my phone.
I've said it before, the classic look Leatherman tools (Supertools, Rebar, PST, ...) and the Swisstool are the most photogenic tools out there.
Thanks for the pics :salute:.
Thanks for the kind words :salute:.
I'll be waiting here for those snow pics :popcorn:.

I have had mine for about a year now and still reach for it more often than I originally thought.

I think I'm gonna buy another Blast. I really miss that tool.
I see some love for the Blast around here.
Why?
Dude I carried a Blast for years and it's one of my all time favorites! I know it's not perfect but it's damn close for me. I just pulled the trigger on a new one off Ebay. Very excited.

Welcome :cheers:.
I also started with the original Supertool (back in '94), and I also just got myself a Surge, be it a BO version (Christmas gift from my wife :D), and both of them are great tools.
Let me give you one piece of advice, this forum is awesome, best online community on the net, but it's full with enablers. Before you know it you'll start buying the same tool in different colours/versions, try to get your hands on some of the classics (like the Leatherman PST, to name one), and it gets worse ... wait until you take a look at those Victorinox pocket knives ... and then you discover they also make plier-based tools ... and something called "alox" ...
And you should also check out the "flashlight forum" here ;).

I know exactly what you mean. Multitools are very useful and in addition to that they are just fun to play with also. It is easy to get a little carried away. A Victorinox pocket knife was my first "multitool" as a very young boy. Don`t remember where I got it from but I had it on everywhere I went. Sadly it went missing a long time ago and I have missed it ever since.Hi everybody.

The Super tool was a must in the army, way up north in Norway. Was always on the belt next to the Sami/Lappland knife with the 9" blade. Saved me a couple of times as well, fixing the stove in -40 degrees celcius..

When your stove is not working when it's -40°c and you can fix it with your Supertool, I think you can indeed say that it saved your *ss :o.

I thought maybe you had issues with really loose eyeglasses or a lot of first grade craft projects to complete.
Lol!
I actually wear glasses and i have always liked having an eyeglass screwdriver somewhere in my EDC so that one was never an issue for me.
I love the blast because i carried one for years. It was my choice because i really prefer the inboard tools on a multi, and the blast had scissors which are a requirement for me. I think i used my blast for everything i could find it worked for. It was a decent hammer, and fully extended i could reach door shutoff switches at work. Most things i used the blast for are universal but i just happened to use the blast so i like it.

Got a used Style CS in black off eBay. I knew they were small but didn't expect it to be quite so tiny. I struggle to deploy the blade as the nail nick is barely a scratch, can this be improved upon?
Use a Dremel rotary tool fitted with a cutoff wheel to make your own nail nick like I did on a Gerber MP400:

Cheers, sounds easy enough. Might try to add one further down the blade, stock one is really close to the pivot point which makes it even worse.

I got a OHT last week. So far I'm pretty impressed with it. The drivers are a little shorter that the other tools I'm used to, but I'll get used to that. It feels more sturdy than what it looks. I got the Molle XL sheath with it. Love the sheath, but far to big to carry it on the hip. So I made a leather one that is a snug fit.
Pics...

Nice work on that scope wrench-cum-pry bar...what tool/method did you use to work on it? It's made of hardened tool steel extremely hard to work with. I tried modding mine but didn't get far :-[

Thank You babola
It took a couple hours.
I cut the wrench parts off with a cut off wheel on a Dremel. I cut a little and dipped it in oil cut a little more dipped it again again and again until I got the wrench ends off. The rest I did with a sanding drum keeping it cool with oil , sandpaper and wet stones .
It is very hard to work with hardened steel. You got to take your time and not over heat it or it will get soft.
it took me along time to lean how to do right.
I'd grind out a few if I had more wrenches.
I like doing it now that I know what I'm doing.
Theres nothing mo frustrating than Running good knives / multitool, ect trying to do a mod .
I know :facepalm:

They most certainly should and they most certainly would :tu:
But there's no snowboard/skateboard/surfer tool on it, they're gonna have to add a headphone storage spot or maybe market it as a grip tape scraper. :P :facepalm:
A simple pry bar doesn't seem to fit Leatherman's current agenda I'm afraid.
I wish they would make one like the one in this thread because I would buy it in a heartbeat. I actually almost googled it to see where I could buy one until I kept reading here.

That would be the standard scope wrench that comes with the MUT package. You can order it as spare part too.

Just got a new Charge Ti with all of the accessories. The date stamps are both 0404 so I was surprised to find it still in the box.
Very nice find. :tu:
Post by: JAfromMn on February 08, 2015, 10:10:16 PM
Wait until I get some good pics of it.
i polished the sides and the grind to 1000 grit and it's silky smooth to the toch.
I'll make anyone 1 if they want me too. I got to ask for them to send a little something with there wrench to cover my time and materials.
It should take about a hour, 2 cutting disks, 1 piece of sandpaper. for me to make one nicer than this one now that I know what doing. Oh and a little flitz polish.
If do em for free but I got to buy material and tools

Nice one Gareth! The sideclip is incredible. I carry mine sometimes. It's getting old, I've had it for 15 years and it's showing it's age. I hesitate to use it heavily anymore because I'd be devastated if it broke.

That was a couple months back so I thought you already got that one. :D And I have a thing for Juices as you might have noticed so very few thing about them get passed me. ;)

New to the forum, first post! Just recently got my black oxide Rebar. Also have a Skeletool CX. Love them both. I'm addicted. Debating on getting either the Surge or Crunch next.
Welcome and YES and YES to those great tools.
I picked up a Leap myself. It's neat and pretty small ( pictured with my SC ). As always with me it's formerly owned and was a great deal so I had to. It's the "new" one with the 3 ridges on the knife spine.

This Mini arrived today! Been after this one for some time now. An updated group shot of the Mini's later :D
I give it about one hour before Kirky comes to droll on the BO Mini goodness.
Sorry to disappoint Herley,but I've been drooling over my own BO Mini ;)

First a bo Blast that I have wanted for some time. I always liked the bo tools but they are not that common and quite pricey where I live.
So I´m very glad my black fuelinegroup are complete. In my own opinion very cool looking. 8)
And then a ST300 EOD that i also been curious about since I do like the regular 300 so much.
It differs from the regular with partly serrated knife, small metal saw and with a shankholder that are different then that on the surge as it is on the inside.
And ofcourse the c4 punch. I don´t have any c4 to try but I´m sure that pointy thing will find it´s use.
I´ll guess I need a bo Core now. :P
Sorry for smurfing with the tones on pics.

Saw these on the bay a few days ago just couldn't resist!!
2x Original Waves with Original Brown Leather Sheaths
1x PST II
1x Micra
1x Juice S2
1x Juice CS4
Both juices show pocket carry wear, but the rest look to have never been used

Quite honestly Greg, I wasn't looking to buy I was simply bored. Spotted that it had just been listed and snapped it up. Afterwards I did ask myself "What the hell....?? :think:
But compared to 6 months ago my collecting is basically non-existent. However that LM shop display cabinet I got recently was one hell of a find :D it's fabulous! Came complete with a set of display cards in the back for several now discontinued LM's.
But apart from a Camo Surge, Charge ti and Juice SX plus a couple of Wengers (telescopic pointer) there is nothing I want.
Obviously if a bargain comes my way I'll grab it - old habit I suppose :angel:
EDIT: I did get something in the other day...
2 x clear LM polycarbonate QR holsters for the Juice series.
Never knew they existed until a week or so ago....Doh!
But they don't count do they?? :pok: ;)

How do you like it.
My latest is a Leatherman tool adaptor kit

It'll add to my collection of 9 Crunch and 5 Victorinox Signature Lite (yes, I know I have a problem)
Normal EDC is my modified (UK Legal) Crunch and a Signature Lite (for the pen and torch).

Thanks enki :tu:
@JAfromMn
They're both sealed - I don't really want to open them :facepalm: (I got them to go with my juice collection)
However I did read that they're not very durable. It seems they're prone to breaking!!

I do like it, but those locks take some getting used to. Other than that and some increase in bulk/weight, it's basically the same as my Supertool. I'm just trying to determine if the locking mechanism is worth the extra bulk/weight.Nice ST200 M :tu: Did it come with a sheath ?Thanks Steve!

They do take just a bit to get used to.
Post by: Mr Biriyani on April 08, 2015, 03:16:30 PM
This one was much older from 0200 but like new.
Also got a bit kit for some older Lm:s from the same guy.
Maybe it´s no news but when comparing them I saw they have made some changes on the scales regarding to the logo and other printing.
My old(newer) one looks a little naked with nothing on one side.
Funny is with nothing to compare to I always been convinced that the blade on the Crunch was a little hawkblade-ish. Getting this one I realized it isn´t. It´s just my other that is if ever so slightly.
When using it it feels really like a hook.

The plain edge went in very easily and does not have any play left/right or up/down.

The serrated blade went in easily as well and has good snap.

I was worried about the little nub on the blade to extract it, but it fit perfectly.

Not really, Leatherman does this thing every year on Earth Day where they sell tools like those listed above, old model LED Lenser flashlights, and whatever other types of odds and ends they have taking up space. We had about 4 cases of the Wingmans, and 3 of the C33s.That sounds. AWESOME!!!!!!!!

Maybe we should start playing the lottery... I do have a TTi that gets lots of carry time but still not sold on the bit driver.
Post by: Monrogue on April 22, 2015, 06:43:55 PM
Same for me. I love the old school LMs. I find the majority of the LMs I carry are retired models (G1 Wave, Supertool, Supertool 200, PST) with the only new LM being the Rebar, which itself is styled like a classic LM.I love old school Leathermans.

I started my collection recently. I already had the PST and Flair to begin with. The others were added the past few weeks. Now I need to explain to my wife my paypal bill :D
No need to explain just starting fixing stuff around the house ;)
Great looking collection :tu:

Well I was just teasing....
But wow - How have you survived, or not even been expelled from MTo? ??? I thought photees were mandatory here :D
Anyway more important than seeing the Brown Camo S2 was discovering the Multitool Wiki - I never knew it existed until now - After being a member for nearly two years!! It's fab.
So thank you!!

Thanks Sawman! What era do you think its from? Early 90's? Late 80's? Thanks again
Great score for $15, it looks to be in great shape.
Open it up and look for the date code, it will be inside of the back of the handle.
My guess is mid 90's

They are dated on the inside of the handle so they can tell when it was made and the warranty will apply accordingly. With that said I vaguely remember Tim Leatherman saying he would fix tools over 25 years old.

That makes sense. Thanks! Would be interesting to know their strategy of stock piling retired models for warranty work. It would suck to get a retired model replaced with a newer model. But then again the general public would be happy thinking they got an upgrade.

I don't think they have much of a strategy of stock piling old models. It seems that nowadays they rather just replace it with a new model. Its probably much more time efficient for their staff. I would hope they keep all the warranty returns that are discontinued for parts for people who do not want a replacement.

Its in the PST vein so all is well. Held off on the purchase because the ST 200 I have still shreds my thumb while using the lock release. This pulse is pretty smooth in that department. That in itself makes it so much more enjoyable to use.
Post by: Monrogue on May 23, 2015, 02:57:00 AM
Yeah I recently got a ST200 and I'm not sure how I feel about those rocker locks. I like using them somewhat, but I don't like the looks and feel of them in that they take away from the sleekness of that classic LM style that I like. I know they're tools, and I use them, but I also like them even more if they're pleasing to the eyes ;)That's cool.

I really like locking tools....it sure makes life nice when you don't have to worry about something snapping shut on you!
Yeah, they are a plus to have. Have had some mishaps before with non locking tools and most certainly will have more.

That's probably my very favorite LM. I received my PST2 today and I know I'll catch a clubbing for this but it will not be a user. They're nearly impossible to find NIB and I don't intend on messing it up. It WILL however get plenty of fondling :drool:I won't club you buddy ;). It is one of the better LMs for me as well. You're the one that got me thinking about getting one after your latest carry combo discussion.

From one PSTII owner to another, does the longbar for the scissors flop out on yours, or does it stay in pretty tight?
What I tool...... I just can't say enough nice about it. If LM still produced these I swear their stock would double. Just... WOW... :D

They sure don't build them like they use to. This tool has no play anywhere, not even the handles. Totally rock solid.

Very nice CB. I agree that the older LMs have a better feel of quality to them.+1 - Although I've had pretty good luck with some recent Micra and Rebar purchases, the quality still doesnt match up to the good ole days.

I just got back from a flea marked. I picked up an original Wave with it's original leather sheath for $20. Very dirty with a few rust spots. It is soaking in soapy water right now. Should clean up nice.
Sweet score, the OG Wave is on my short list of what to get next :tu:

I was at a Lowes recently and they evidentally don't move a lot of multitools because they still had a BLAST in clam package. I don't remember the exact price but I think it was around $60. Perhaps that's why it's still there ???
You would think they would clearance it out by now. :think:
Sometimes they clearance it and never mark the package though. I found a P4 in clamshell and it was market $25ish. They rung it up and it was like $9.

Yes,there was noticeable wobble at the scissor pivot. A little judicious turning of the pivot with the proper torx driver and all appears to be OK.

I have a OHT and Style CS on the way. This MT thing is certainly crazy. I started off with a wave, sold it, had a charge TTi sold it, had a OHT sold it, and then got a Rebar and EDC'd it for a year till it broke and now I'm back with another Wave and a OHT on the way. I've probably owned almost every Leatherman model and all the popular Vic knives off and on for 2 years now. I might need to take a break from this forum. ;)I too have traded away and reacquired various LM's over the years. Some of which I cannot replace today and wish I'd kept. My favorite is my NIB PST II :D

After cleaning and working the plier head out, I grabbed a hand file and went to town on the wire cutters, which now bypass with minimal contact, only at the very end, and not enough to really hold the jaws shut. The cutters still work fine.
Next, I set about fixing my knife situation. I had a combo edge sog blade, off a powerlock. It was better than the stub left, but a touch too thin. I had to steal a washer off of my custom kick, and then set about hand filing the back of the pivot so it would sit right in the handle, and a little off the top so the lockup isn't bending the spring so far.
In the end, the Philips is chewed but functional, the file is broken but mostly there, the little driver is now reprofiled, in addition to the above. But for $4, and a bit of love, this tool still has a lot of life left, no need to involve the company :tu:

A $4 eBay PST, worked over pretty well, but plenty of life left. Wish I had pics of the before.. It was pretty dirty, completely broken blade, jammed cutters. It's from 0194/0194, Marlboro edition. I took it apart, soaked the plier head in 50/50 ATF/acetone. Spent an hour or so cleaning every piece with a shop rag and a bit of wood to scrape with.You're a good man. I find your story inspiring :tu: :tu:

I will be using the No 6 as a backup and a a multitool I can carry when I'm going to places that don't allow knives. The screwdriver will be used for the same thing I kept the old one for, one I keep on my dresser to open battery compartments.
At about $3 a piece, I think I did well.

Thanks, I was pretty happy with that. :) I've wanted a Mini Tool for a while, just never really came across any. This is the first one I've even seen in person. The inside tools are really lacking, but you get a nice set of pliers in a super small package. :tu:I picked up two LM's today.

Found an original Super Tool on Ebay for $23 shipped after checking for a couple weeks for one in the under $25 category. Seller had ten, and all looked to be in quite filthy condition. I'm really liking the tools made by Leatherman when Tim Leatherman was still the CEO. There's just something about the simple brick styling. In addition to that, many good condition used tools can be found for a great price!
Looks like cleaning it will be a chore! If there's rust (which there appears to be) how to I get it off without scratching?
Since the sticker has worn off showing me how to use it, how do I operate the locking mechanism?
I've provided a link to the listing since it's still active and I can't add all the pics in one post:

Since it had several things my PST II lacked, like separate serrated and plain edge blades (the partially serrated blades can be a pain at several times, and requires me to carry an extra pocketknife), as well as an awl (the PST II trades it for scissors) and a saw (something all my 91mm SAKs have, but my Leatherman doesn't) in addition to locking blades (which is good as a safety feature) I decided my next Leatherman would be the Super Tool.

Literally the same. The only full size tool I will pocket carry regularly, though I do prefer the PST II. My dad has been carrying a PST since the early 90's as well. Such a usable toolset, and a durable old school quality leatherman, in the thinnest, sleekest package around. Plus, the quintessential plier tool. Love em. Absolutely love em. I've got a BO one that should be arriving Monday :D

Thanks. Has some pitting but it looks to have carried for a while but never used. The original edge is still on it and sharp. Nothing used at all. Crazy for a 15 year old. Poor thing finally found a home that will let it out to play.

Great find there. Congrats! I too tried the flea markets and pawn shops looking for the older Wave but no luck. Finally scored one on ebay for $30, that too because it was not listed as a Wave. Some older Waves are going for over $50. Yours is a steal. Mine is on the way... cannot wait.
Post by: cody6268 on July 22, 2015, 05:23:13 PM
Kind of strange. I found out it's dated 0498, roughly one year to the date after my PST II was made!

New here... been carrying a Micra for years now. Have a Sideclip in our Family Disaster Kit. Gave my wife a Sidekick for Xmas a couple years ago (she had it on her list :) ) Gave my Dad a full-size LM tool several years ago (Wingman or Super-tool if I remember right).
Since joining I've purchased a Squirt PS4 and a Wave. Like them both but the Wave really stands out!
Cheers,
Allen

Welcome Allen. Good that all your LM gifts is in the family. Lucky them. I suppose you can always ask them to give it back at some point, haha.
I gifted PSTs to my buddies when I got my first job. Some of them them don't have them any more and some still do but refuse to give it back.. .useless buggers, lol, kidding. I would give my life to them, errr maybe. Definitely not to the one who uses his to clean his bbq grill.

At the LM retail store in Portland last week I picked up:
a Jam tool for my Styles
Wave pocket clip
And this might not count, but a MUT tee (I love my MUT tool) and a coffee mug from them too.
Post by: rishardh on July 25, 2015, 09:32:17 PM
Finally got an original Wave. I remember seeing this in stores in 99 and thinking this will be nice to have some day. Looks very compact to how I remember. Way ahead of it's time for sure. Glad to have this in my collection.

I visited my local gun shop today to pick up my shotgun. I found another set of these older stocked 2009 Cores + Monarch 300 combos. I looked at the back of one and the AAA battery was all corroded but with no damage to anything else. I mentioned this and the woman behind the counter said half off the lowest price for you just to get them off our hands. 37 dollars each...SOLD!

No kidding, I thought I could never afford one. From what I have seen, when it comes to retired tools, from time to time people sell unused or brand new MTs for what they paid not knowing what the going price is.

Suddenly, I'm knee-deep in MTs, and I thought I was just a SAK guy. :-\
The Wave accessories, I had from the Surge.

I have a Rebar! :woohoo:
That is to say, I have a Rebar until saturday, when my father will get it as a birthday gift!
Until then, I am airing the sheath and working the tools. :multi:
Such a difference between the first opening and the 10th time, now the clumping is a lot less. :tu:
But I am still twisting my fingernails trying to get the saw and file. Is there any trick to getting them out easier?

I just pull mine out with my fingers, I don't even use nails. (Maybe I have small fingers?) Granted, mine has loosened up with time, I can't recall if these were hard to get out when it was new.

It's actually not that big in hand (that's what she said...). It fits nicely in the bit sleeve area or an LM sheath with a single bit card. It also disappears in the bottom of a pocket as it is quite light weight and not thick at all.

Love it so far.... looks far better than the SS one, feels a bit lighter and the blade is leaps and bounds better (no serrations either... yeeey... most importantly if feels less cheapish and rattly... right now it's the only Leatherman I still have and definitely my favourite out of all I ever had...

Skeletool CX... got it brand new from TTC for 43 USD... almost the price I got for my old SS one. I guess they played around ith it for a bit, but I honestly couldn't find any imperfections.Congrats to a nice find. It´s a great tool. :tu:

Should I spring the $35 for the Skeletool CX there as well?Hell yes!! For a CX that is a great price :D

She appreciated it when I gifted it and appreciated the Wave more. Since she's not into collecting, she asked what to do with it and I offered to find a new home for it.

In the past twenty four hours I have ordered/bought 3 leatherman style ps/cs
Nice... Style with Pliers + Scissors + Knife mod?
Post by: AimlessWanderer on October 07, 2015, 09:59:14 AM
The external polish is far from Victorinox quality, and has a kind of rippled finish to it. It looks like they've used a mop with compound which has pooled in the stamped lettering and then dragged up the rest of the surface. No significant detriment, but not the finish I was expecting. It has also had the effect of stropping certain areas making sharp external edges even sharper.
However...
.... I didn't realise they'd also given the internal tools a bit of a polish too. Again, not Victorinox quality polishing, but this does give deployment of internal tools a smoother operation than I've experienced from Waves and Charges before. The pliers seem to jam up worse than normal when closing the tool, but I've not identified why that is yet......
Overall, a nice tool, though I do need to give it a little TLC in a couple of areas such as smoothing sharp edges to be 100% happy with it. Bottom line is that I paid less than UK retail for a Wave that is a little nicer in looks and deployment than a standard version. I don't see it as some ultra sexy collectible though, a standard Spirit has a bigger "wow" factor. To me it will just be a slightly more refined user Wave. I just need to find the little removable pocket clip from my other Wave so I can carry it how I want.

Still no pics yet, but a 25th anniversary Wave.From the pics I've seen of polished Waves here on MTO, they really look terrific all shiney and polished IMO. I had a ti buck 560x type model years ago that I put a mirror polish on and it was absolutely beautiful (and sold for a nice profit >:D ) so I can certainly appreciate your anniversary Wave :tu:

Again, not Victorinox quality polishing, but this does give deployment of internal tools a smoother operation than I've experienced from Waves and Charges before. The pliers seem to jam up worse than normal when closing the tool, but I've not identified why that is yet......
Overall, a nice tool, though I do need to give it a little TLC in a couple of areas such as smoothing sharp edges to be 100% happy with it. Bottom line is that I paid less than UK retail for a Wave that is a little nicer in looks and deployment than a standard version. I don't see it as some ultra sexy collectible though, a standard Spirit has a bigger "wow" factor. To me it will just be a slightly more refined user Wave. I just need to find the little removable pocket clip from my other Wave so I can carry it how I want.

I'm a few hours from home on a job assignment and stopped at an outdoor store to see what there inventory was like. Never have I seen a wall of leathermans SAKs and literally every model of Spyderco and Benchmades. I made it out of there with just this. Almost spent my whole paycheck but got out of there with only $40 spent. But I'm glad I finally have a Squirt and a bit kit for my Wave.

Bit kit just added so much capability to your Wave :salute:. I am a fan of the P4 myself tho I do have a PS4. Those little pliers are so fricken handy and the blade is not bad at all. Nicely done making it out of there without much damage at all.

You dont need to be a heavy user, just use the tool as you see fit. It sure looks interesting to say the least.It is interesting. It pairs perfectly with my MechaRogue (or Rogueneer if I carry it) as they have a metal file and other things the Signal lacks. I think I'm going to like it. The hammer is cool too.

It was only $40 at Lowes, so it was hard to pass up. Actually considered buying two, one to keep and one to hack.
My plan is to pull the pliers from it and put them on a spare Wave I have. Thats the plan anyway.
My LM collection keeps growing, much like my vinyl collection...I think I have a disease.
Post by: BASguy on November 07, 2015, 05:28:36 PM
That's probably my very favorite LM. I received my PST2 today and I know I'll catch a clubbing for this but it will not be a user. They're nearly impossible to find NIB and I don't intend on messing it up. It WILL however get plenty of fondling :drool:
What I tool...... I just can't say enough nice about it. If LM still produced these I swear their stock would double. Just... WOW... :D
:multi:
As nice as the original PST series look, I never really liked using them. The pliers was an amazing breakthrough on the multitool front, but hard use required gloves because they were so darn uncomfortable. Once they rolled the handles Leatherman really hit their stride. It always made me curious why they didn't roll the handles initially. Perhaps it was a manufacturing issue at the time? I'm not sure what kind a fabrication equipment they had in the beginning but I would imagine they considered it.

I bought one to give as a gift to a young man that has never owned a real multi tool before but has been watching me for the last five or so years using and taking care of mine and it has always fixed many many problems and he has been looking at mine with yearning eyes. I felt he would respect and protect this tool now as well as he does his phone or better so I think it's time to get a man's tool for a man. Kind of a right of passage into manhood as far as I see it. After looking at the package multiple time over the last few days I wish I had bought one for me to keep as a backup,

I was able to get in on the deal that NKlamerus found at Delta Packs before they closed their business. Just arrive today were a Wave for $45.00 and a PS4 for $13.50, along with other items.
That's a good deal. Haven't seen anything like that in Canada for a long while...

Leatherman SteensWow very cool knife, and with s30v.
I just got a early x-mas gift for myself. I´v been monitoring an Squirt E4 for some time still in a store thinking it was to expensive but they had a blackfriday sale and i went for it.
Knowing they are getting i little hard to find around here.
Then to pass the freeshipping level I added a small opinel but also a spare prunerblade for Genus. And this is so stupid.Do I have a Genus ?
Offcourse not! :facepalm: Now this genius have to find a Genus to have any use for it. And I know that is not any easier.
A beaten up Genus anyone ? :angel:

A heat treatable, aero-grade aluminum alloy that is extremely durable yet lightweight. 6061-T6 is used on handle scales in Leatherman multi-tools to reduce weight without losing strength.
Does this help? I suck at chemical stuff. I imagine it's a bit like the Victorinox Alox process, but feels a bit thicker as the coating is still flawless, even if the tool was used quite hard.

6061-T6 Hard-Anodized AluminumThank you, it seems you know a lot more than I about the composition of the metal. I think I'm going to have to find somebody that has one of those, I want to see how they feel compared to my old school wave. I am wanting my next tool to be one with the exchangeable bits.

Thanks, I have a pretty similar plan, though still in doubt: there is a tiny led lenser already, two magnetic keys (one is even bigger than Micra) and plenty of keys that come in various sizes. Choosing from "too much already" and "it won't change much"

Sent from my XT1563 using Tapatalk
Sure is, the ferro works very well. Took me a few minutes but finally managed to get the sparks to land right on the birch bark. It took very little effort to spark, had a fire going in about five minutes or so.
My favorite part of the Signal is the hammer :D. Obviously limited use, but sure works better than smacking something with the side of the plier head or something. Hammers on multi tools are quite useful to me, and the Signal is much more pocketable than the MUT.
There are a couple issues with the Signal that I don't care for much but I'll wait the pass judgement until I've had the tool for more than half a day. :cheers:

The design takes getting used to. I don't like having to leave the tool partially open to use the bit driver. But, it's lightweight and has little to no redundancy when carried with an SAK.

And by that I meant swap the stainless pieces in the tan Wave pictured, with the black oxide pieces.

When you mentioned you don't like the way they work I thought you were referring to how bad they work at cutting things.
Post by: parman53 on January 16, 2016, 01:29:37 AM
I see. No I meant the way they don't open back up after each snip.

My latest Leatherman will be the purple Juice XE6, which is on its way. Man, I was late to the collecting scene. Believe it or not, I had chances to buy a Leupold Skeletool CX (http://www.ebay.com/itm/291638487640), and Charge TTi Camo (http://www.ebay.com/itm/131694487940 and http://www.ebay.com/itm/231791018311) for way below retail prices. I did not pull the trigger, and simply let them slip by :facepalm:
I started late too. Part of the thrill is the hunt. Post pics of what you got so far. There was no love for that purple and Leatherman did not have it in their newer XE6.

The Charge feels more comfortable and secured in my hand than the Wave. It must be because of the scales' texture, and the all around uniform rounding on the handles. This tool is a beautiful product, that oozes of quality on each components. It also looks a lot better in reality than online picture.
I am typing on a tablet. Will add a picture later.

- The Charge Ti (as mentioned in previous post) lines up with its brothers TTi and ALX. I really like the Ti, for it is a fancy Wave, and I have no need for the cutting hook. The clip on the Ti was from the TTi. It fits like a charm without a wiggle.
- A pair of Cores in BO and SS: the stainless steel Core was my very first LT.
- Went classic with a OG Wave and PST II: I am pleasantly surprised how smooth these are when opening. The scissors are wicked! First impression when I folded the scissors back in, "that snapping sound... did I just break these scissors?"
- Classic Juice CS4.

This was the last one at mine, it was hidden amidst a bunch of Waves. I would have bought more of them if there were more.

I own a regular Skeletool with combo edge for so long, and have not notice a silvery plated (zinc?) piece which holds the spare bit. I always thought the whole thing is stainless. Until I looked at the Leupold today, when that piece really stands out. Black and green are two of my favorite colors, this is love at first sight :D
The Leupold logo was etched on the rotary side of the pivot of the pliers. That finishing touch is nice.

Hey buddy, nice to see you around :) So you like the MUT? I think it looks cool, and would probably like it since I really dig the Signal, but it's supposedly so heavy, which is a big strike for me unfortunately :(
Post by: sawman on February 27, 2016, 06:49:48 PM
It's a heavy tool but the weight is offset by the functionality and the fact it offers the larger pliers. I gladly carry it on my belt. I think I found my dream tool :drool: :cheers:My latest is a MUT. I've already put the swisscard scissors in it.

Sweet buddyIt's a heavy tool but the weight is offset by the functionality and the fact it offers the larger pliers. I gladly carry it on my belt. I think I found my dream tool :drool: :cheers:My latest is a MUT. I've already put the swisscard scissors in it.
Build date 1013. I've extremely pleased with this one. Now part of my EDC :tu: :tu:
Hey buddy, nice to see you around :) So you like the MUT? I think it looks cool, and would probably like it since I really dig the Signal, but it's supposedly so heavy, which is a big strike for me unfortunately :(

P4 :angel:
The LM Squirt P4 is a great little tool :tu: I really rate the P4/PS4 MTs, in fact a PS4 is currently my only EDC tool/knife. It is so small I don't notice it in my pocket, but it is strong enough for a surprising range of tasks ( I mostly use the pliers and the blade, but swapped from a P4 to a PS4 to see if I would use the scissors more if I had them with me at all times - so far I haven't needed to).

It feels good can see now why it is a popular model.
Strange that they retired it.

:ahhh Been a little off lately but I found and got a Juice KF4 which made me in the Mt mood again.I like the KF4. If it had scissors in place of maybe the serrated blade, it would be a great small all around multi.

Yes agree, scissors instead of the serrated blade would make it perfect. I love that it has the diamond coated file.:ahhh Been a little off lately but I found and got a Juice KF4 which made me in the Mt mood again.I like the KF4.

This found its way to me recently dated 1000 both sides. Pretty great condition overall with little use if any. Most of the "wear" appears to have come from taking it out of the sheath and being neglected.
Nice ! and with the sheath :tu:

MP600 is nice and all that, but it really is more of an urban tool with that strong design, heavy duty pliers and so on. The Supertool 300 has everything that the MP600 has, plus an awl and a saw. And that means it can work quite well in an urban environment and also as a camp tool.
I'm sure he will be really happy with it!

Haul for the week: Crunch from eBay, the pair of Pulse and ST200 from local. All are new. I actually found the Pulse and ST200 on eBay, with the seller living about 20 miles from me. A couple msg exchanges, and they were in my hand for $70, 4 hours ago. :D The lock design on the Pulse and ST200 has been bugging me for a while, that they gradually moved to my "must have" list.

The big box home improvement store where you got that must have hid them under a rock or something. All the local stores around here got rid of those a few months ago. Good find nonetheless.

So a friend of mine pointed to my MP600 Bluntnose and said one of those would be real handy to have at work or while out camping. Maybe he was trying to give me ideas, because it turns out his birthday is this Friday! So I banded together with a couple of friends and together we paid for a Leatherman Supertool 300 which should arrive tomorrow!
MP600 is nice and all that, but it really is more of an urban tool with that strong design, heavy duty pliers and so on. The Supertool 300 has everything that the MP600 has, plus an awl and a saw. And that means it can work quite well in an urban environment and also as a camp tool.
I'm sure he will be really happy with it!
Anyone would really appreciate such a gift & the thought put into it. Good on ya mate! :tu:

Though the OHT is bigger and has more design improvement, I think the Gerber MP400 is cooler cosmetically. The size feels good in my hand. Just wish it had spring loaded pliers.

As far as I can tell, it was a hit with him and he immediately wanted to head out to do some camping. I've already scheduled something for next Saturday, I'm just waiting for my friends to get back to me about it, if they're available etc. I love camping.

A ST300 made its way into my van today -
Nice! It's a beast, innit? :D
Now that I think about it, that's the latest Leatherman I've bought, too. I've been doing a lot of home renovation the past few months, and despite wearing a well-equipped tool belt, there was always some stupid little thing that required a tool I didn't have: needle nose plier, wire cutters, a file, a saw, and awl… bet you can see where this is going. ;)
The tool belt has a pocket all the way on the left side, pretty out of the way, that's perfect for a multitool. I got tired of getting my EDC Mts dunked up with plaster/sawdust/paint/whathaveyou, so I bought the Super Tool specifically for the job. Fit that pocket perfectly, and has saves me tons of trips back to my tool bag. It's quite a workhorse. :tu:
Post by: LoopCutter on April 13, 2016, 12:21:49 AM
The first task I am planning to test it with is the crimper, hoping it will handle my needs over another tool that is specialized.
If it works as planned it save me some (many) redos. :multi:

Since I am comfortable carrying the Style PS in security area situations I figured I would try a full size version of this type of LM, or at least have a representative in my collection. The only slight glitch so far was the pliers pivot on the blade side was overtightened, but reinstalling the blade with a little blue Loctite solved that easily. Opens and closes very nicely now, better even than my (now broken in) Charge. Hard to say at this point if it will see much pocket time, but it does look like it will be a good companion to several SAK models. :tu:

Continuing to collect LM blackout models, with the latest being a TTC Ninja Skelly CX. My first damascus blade, as this was within my MT budget, while the damascus SAKs are still too high (and maybe always will be :-\). Really liking the blade pattern and the carbon fiber! :)sweet ! :tu:

Oh, I see.Yes, first versionsloki: what does "fpr" mean? And, good haul :tu: My recent haul is pale in comparison: a PST, a Camo Fuse, and a purple Juice XE6
First production run.
So, is there a certain production date you look for or just "PAT PEND." stamps to determine the tools first production run?

Anyway, walked to lowes next door to se if they had any deals. Nothing really. But I saw this older blister packed Wingman. I haven't ever seen this packaging. But I've had the same Supertool and Supertool 300 for the last 10 years until I recently picked up a Rebar and now this Wingman, so maybe they're normal?

Nice combo! Happen to know what size torx you need to adjust the pivots? Mines a bit stiff. Gonna try a clean/lube and just working it out but I may need to loosen up the driver pivots a little.
I believe you will want a couple TS10 bits.

Got a pair of new Charge Ti and XTi in black oxide. I was so glad to be able to get them at this time without losing an arm and a leg. Also on the way are a Camo Surge and an old style Charge TTi. That brings my Charge collection to 12. :salute: My paycheck on the other hand... :facepalm:
Bit late but WOW what a great haul. Especially the Camo Surge.

Love love LOVE those sheaths. I make sure to keep a few spares around, no telling how much longer LM will keep selling them.
I love that they have a nice, quiet snap instead of #$%^&*( velcro. Also, once they stretch a little, they can carry a variety of tools besides the Old Wave: Pulse, New Wave/Charge (snug, but doable), Fuse/Kick/Blast, Rebar, SwissTool Spirit, Gerber MP400/MP600, SOG PocketPlier Deluxe, just about any 4" tool. :tu:

Picked up a Wingman at the Home Depot for $25 today. Didn't need one or really have to have one, until I saw the markdown... Then I was like, :multi:Thank you the heads up. A stop at a Lansing HD yielded a Wingman as well.

I'm looking for all versions of the producted multitools. :facepalm:
For example silver Charge Ti had 4 version:
Patpend + 5star torx + Charge TM on handle
Patpend + 5star torx + Charge R on handle
5star torx
6star torx
Also Charge Ti had others versions:
Camo Black
Camo Silver
Black
etc...

I read somewhere (Amazon?) the standalone OG Wave sheaths Leatherman sells are not as durable as the older ones, mainly with the belt loop. It seems like it must be the double stiches on the old ones. Are the standalone OG Wave in light brown color? The ones I have (came with the tools) are in lovely dark brown. This sheath and the OG Wave are elegant enough to go with khaki pants and button down shirt without "downgrading" your look :tu:Never gets boring looking at those sheaths. Nice Wave too :tu:

Arrived today are a pair of new OG Waves: one with the brown leather sheath (99' vintage), other in blister pack with a Brinkmann Legend flashlight and combo nylon sheather (00' vintage). Unfortunately, the Energizer with the 2004 exp date leaked and damaged the nice graphic in the combo pack. I would have loved to keep the blister pack in tact, but had no choice but to open it :rant:

Thanks M, this one is too nice :) I originally bid on it thinking I would just get it for the sheath and flip the tool. But after getting it, it's in absolutely brand new shape and I can't bring myself to split it up. I think i may flip this one on to someone who want a NIB for their collection. I like to use all my tools and this one is just too nice.I'd love it if I would carry it, but I've got to try to get used to it again, which is hard with other tools I like to carry as well.

What's the quality of the leather like? Tell me it's not as bad as the other modern "leather" sheaths.

I know, right? :cry: Within this week, I pulled trigger three times:
- A Freestyle (Coalatree version)
- A Sideclip: another item to cross off in my list. Just want to see what the raves are all about. I got it cheap enough, hopefully the thing is in decent shape.
- A Skeletool Leupold: third one :facepalm:
Still keep my eye open for a mint/ new Flair under $60

Love love LOVE those sheaths. REAL leather, rather than the stuff they usually use. And the best part is, NO VELCRO, just a sturdy – and quiet – snap.
I bought a few, afraid LM would stop selling them, but my current user has been going strong for over ten years now.
Yes, they can stretch over time; a new Wave or Charge is a tight fit, and only "narrow" end down. Mine also fits my SwissTool Spirit, Gerber 400 (blunt nose mod), SOG PocketPlier Deluxe, Leatherman Rebar, Leatherman Blast (and Kick and Fuse), and probably several more mid-size tools.

Older LM Charge Ti (I believe) for $30 at a flea market :DSo awesome. :cheers: Is the tool in decent shape? I am envious of your find :ahhh Mine cost me $100 on eBay with evident of small usage on pliers' serration. I wish Leatherman ditch the knurl screws for some sort of low-profile security torx screws. I would have cannibalize my new Wave to restore the SLV.

Here is the mighty Juice S2 (old version). I still carried it a little around for last few hours and it makes a great feel in the pocket.

I'm thinking the KF4 and my S2 compliment the different SAKs in my current EDC rotation.

I just snagged another New-old-stock OG Supertool with leather sheath off ebay. I paid about $10 more than I wanted to but beers had been drunk and decisions were made...Beer and MT/SAK shopping - always a recipe for trouble ;)

Yup. If I have beer, it's almost guaranteed that either a Multi, SAK, or some sort of Lego will be purchased.

BO Wave with Damascus blades. Seller claimed blades made by TTC. I am surprised that the waviness on the blades can be felt.

On the serrated blade, unlike Leatherman onw with one side ground, TTC ground both serrations on both sides with one side heavier than the other. Probably because of the steel.

More money spent today on a old-style Juice S2 in grey color, and a Super Tool 200. Both for slightly over $80. The S2 is NIB, the ST200 was claimed to be NWOB. Good thing is the ST200 comes with its original leather sheath :D

I prefer the Pulse over the ST200 though. The lock is a little too tight for my taste on the ST200. 2nd unit for my collection.
Back to this thread, yeah, I just bought a yellow Juice KF4 and its grey brother back to back within an hour. $94 total for two new cool cats :D
Post by: Obi1shinobee on June 04, 2016, 03:26:24 AM
My recent acquisitions in the last 3-4 weeks. The non-Leatherman is the large CRKT Razel SS7. Beside it are the Sideclip, Freestyle CX, Charge Camo TTi, OG Wave, and BO Wave with dual Damascus blades. Missing is the Pulse, which was acquired during that time frame.

But on one of the scales a name or logo or something have been taken away in very ugly manner.
I don´t need my tools in perfect condition but this is deep, uneven and ugly.
There is also a two deep bites with chunks of metal taken away.
But all tools are in great shape except of the extra bits that seems to been exposed to some corrosive acid.. And it´s a nice pouch that go with it.
What do you guys think I should do with it ?
Sell it, paint it, paint it with a marker, Sand the rest of the black down. Just go with it and have the pocket clip on that hides some of it. .

It looks functional. Depends on the cost. Yet a cap crimped head is nice option.I´v cleaned it and removed the rust now. All the tools are in good shape and fully functional. i will keep it.It´s a very good user.

Still a little tempted to remove the black from the scales and have it in silver or blackwashed maybe. When using a dremel with steelbrush to remove a tough rustspot I carefully tried to remove a little black and it seemed easy enough.
But probably I will just put some paint over the spot.

Also purchased today is a Japan PST. Main blade looked factory sharp, pliers seem to have just slight rust, so I jumped on the chance for $36. All because you enablers keep showing how cool it is >:( . I hope I am lucky with this PST as with the Charge.

It has the US REG'D TM 1325473, which makes it #6 on the chronology table (http://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,5877.0.html). No "JAPAN" stamped anywhere though.

I also pulled a trigger for a ST200 today. It should arrive at the same time with a non-Leatherman multi, a SOG Power Play PT-540. I read that the PT-540 is hard to come by, I was lucky to snatch it for $30. :oops:

The Japan PST arrived today :mail: It was surprisingly clean, with a few brownish spots, which I was not sure if they are rust or some sort of dried up fluid, heaviest on the plier serration. I used a 5" wired wheel as a brush and manually brush it off the pliers. Given how old it is, I am amazed at how little use was on this puppy. In fact, I think the only evident of this as used is with the slightly bent tip of the small flat head.

From left to right:
SOG Vision SV68 knife: Have a renewed interest in SOG knife, especially the Seki-made ones. This is the AST-34 blade version.
SwissTool standard
Micra with green paint: really dig this shade of green :tu:
Wingman: this one was unexpected, since I had no plan to get Wingman/ Sidekick at the moment. A chance for such a low price deal presented itself, and I went with it. Impressed with the knife and scissors so far though.
K501X knife: used knife. I like how the mirror finish of the blade still shines thru. This knife has a good, nice heavy feel in the hand, unlike the light weight of the Crater series nowadays.
BO Wave

Very first impression was rather good... alright it came pre-rusted, still the tools opened way better than on my stainless Surge. So far so good but I will inspect it more thoroughly when I find some time. The only thing I already noticed was that the Damascene blade lacks the nub, so it does not "lock" when closed.
Anyway, it was on sale and cheaper than my other Surge.

Received this one today: large sheath for a Supertool and bit adapter kit. The little cardboard clip on the packaging showed "2000 Leatherman....". Quite solid.

Dang! Got beat by 3 seconds!!!!
Sold for $22.50!!!!
.... and 50 cents. The only way to beat a sniper (or any other bidder) is to bid higher than them. I think most snipers use a computer program to do their bidding for them in the last few seconds, so it is quite common to see the bid price increase dramatically in the last 10 seconds as all the sniper programs go into action.

To me, bidding in the last 10s is a gamble, with the sole purpose of avoiding impulsing bidders riding up the price. Stick to the max you are willing to pay to avoid buyer remorse later on.

@zrxoa1: well, I have to come clean, that was me winning that auction :D I did not use any snipping software. My bid was $25 in the last 10 seconds from my desktop.

- Charge TTi Seclusion 3D from recent Cabela's sale (http://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,67447.0.html). I thought of it for a few days, FOMO eventually got me, so I pulled the trigger. So glade I did as this one is sold out (discontinued?). Got the old-scale version to boost. :D
- Charge ALX Stainless: bought used, turned out to be likely brand new
- Wave: another used purchase, which has no evidence of use
- Original Super Tool: new with sheath, in box
- Bit adapter kit: beat zrxoa1 in the auction :D What actually caught my eyes was the tiny Philips screw driver in the kit
I am quite happy with this lot. Besides the "full" sale price of the Cabela's one, others were bought at great prices, which will likely retain, if not increase, their values, if I downsize in the future :tu:

I was tossing up between Juices, Squirts, or otherwise.. came across these and with shipping paid $14 for two.. so what the heck. I'm really liking them a lot so far. I also just ordered a replacement Sidekick to the one I lost. I think I'll drop one of its tools in favor of the package opener from my Wingman.

:cheers:Ha, I didn't wait to fondle, at least a couple times ;) Just didn't carry them, but I'm fixing that now :)Here are my latest two that I got early in July after I started in the Supertool challenge: a Rebar and my 4th G1 Wave.Those are two very nice finds, and you waited through the challenge before fondling, WOW! I am impressed.

Cheers Poncho, I'm going to compare it to an original when I knock off work for the day.
I already noticed that they seem to have shortened the blade quite a bit for some reason (unless its just mine of course)!
Originally they had planned on making the Juice series TSA compatible with the new facelift but that didn't work out for whatever reason and I guess LM had already began production so they just kept the shortened blade in ??? :D

After completing the July Challenge and testing my MT aptitude the Rebar should be better suited for EDC with box sheath.
May have by mid next week, unless wife hides it from me before I get back next Friday.

Old TTi, meet new TTi :)I need to get myself a plain jane TTi. Is your new toy having coarse or fine serrations on the pliers?
Post by: DaveK on August 19, 2016, 02:01:49 PM
On the plier head the excess steel doesn't seem to have been ground away properly after casting - which is ugly:
(http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e10/DaveK-ToolPics/IMG_0802_zpsytlyglao.jpg) (http://s36.photobucket.com/user/DaveK-ToolPics/media/IMG_0802_zpsytlyglao.jpg.html)
Of more concern is the gap between the two parts of the pliers - pic shows difference between old and new. Despite this however, the cutters do seem to align properly and they seem functional but I wonder how they'd fare if I was twisting something and torquing them a bit. They're very stiff too, but that could simply be that my old one has had almost 10 years of use, tweaking and "tuning" to my liking.
(http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e10/DaveK-ToolPics/IMG_0804_zpsexwjmqa3.jpg) (http://s36.photobucket.com/user/DaveK-ToolPics/media/IMG_0804_zpsexwjmqa3.jpg.html)
I like the new scales - very slightly wider and at least as comfortable as the old ones. They travel and close narrower than the original too (a statistic more than a pro or con really). Next pic shows difference in the handles when pliers are closed:
(http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e10/DaveK-ToolPics/IMG_0805_zpsf1nolcm6.jpg) (http://s36.photobucket.com/user/DaveK-ToolPics/media/IMG_0805_zpsf1nolcm6.jpg.html)
In summary, I like the new version because of the new scales but the QC isn't what I expected based on the Leatherman of old so I'm a bit disappointed. Not sure if I'll exchange it as I've bought it as a backup for the existing one - its a user not a drawer queen so will think about it I guess.
Handle dates are 01 16 and 04 16, so its pretty recent.
Post by: pfrsantos on August 19, 2016, 03:07:41 PM
The blades are as dull as my posts and it seems to have been used a lot, all tools.
I'll probably be sending it for repair, hope they take care of these issues, too...
Post by: sawman on August 19, 2016, 07:02:08 PM
I've had a lot of waves over the years but most recently purchased a 2013 dated one from Lowes. To my amazement, this one doesn't have some of the issues that past ones had. I'm still keeping a special eye on it because it could break but I do like their warranty program.
So I carry the 2 bit sleeves in a leather Rebar sheath, and the Wave in a nylon sheath. Oh, and I received my $5 accessory clip today from Amazon. I may consider carrying it in my cargo pocket sometimes.
So far, the most used tools on this have been the pliers and the scissors. I just hope my scissor handle doesnt break like so any others. :-\
Time will tell how long I carry this one over my beloved MP600 but so far I'm kinda stoked... :tu:

It must be the pattern change from fine to coarse serration designs. I have a few Charges and Waves with coarse serration and cap crimpers, they all look like that. Not sure about coarse serration, non-CC plier heads though.

Its a bit disappointing - I have had dozens of Charges (still have quite a few) and this is the only one I've seen with this poor finishing.
I decided to keep it though as it is only for backup / use. It doesn't actually need to be pretty.

Excellent 8) you can take the pivot pin and clip from the Kick and it works with the Rebar very well :whistle: All you have to do is flatten the little tab on the clip or cut a notch and it works great :cheers:

An Original Super Tool arrived today. It still has the sticker on the handle, and the original sheath is in excellent condition. All functions look unused. I am glad I only paid $32 for it, as the thing is rusted in multiple spots. I may have a date with it this weekend!
Good one chrono :like:

I am on vacation on the way to Washington we stopped at the Leatherman store in Porland and bought a Siginal, hat and two t-shirts. Today I was at thrift store in Nampa Idaho and found a new BO Wave for 50.00. I think I need to take vacations more often. :D
Nice score on the BO Wave :o :like:

Well, it came in today. I was pleasantly surprised it was a BO one, with a sheath to boost. The only negative thing is a giant sticker on the box. It took me more than an hour to get rid of it.
My bounty for the week!

I got a surprise today. Last week, I bought a NIB Mini Tool for cheap. I only have one Mini copy, so I was excited to add another one to the arsenal. Seller probably did not know what he had at hand, and did not bother to show the tool, just the box.

^^^ 8) I proably would have left the big sticker on it since it had NSN and CAGE on it.
Got a early Crunch the other day 0799 date codes both places.
Wow, I did not know about the NSN thing. Very interesting. The sticker was quite old, as the paper became brittle. The ink was actually flaking off as I tried to peel it.

I had high hope when seeing minimal paint loss at first
(http://i1036.photobucket.com/albums/a441/chronoxxx/20161008_172514_zpswlgndopl.jpg)
Flick out the blades, I thought I scored a Bass Pro Shop Ti, but I quickly noticed that the main PE blade had no 154CM marking. I remembered reading somewhere about the thumb hole difference between the Wave and Charges. Comparing to Wave and another Charge TTi, it became clear the blade of my new toy was a Wave blade. The surface finish on both blades suggests they are more recent production than the date codes show.
(http://i1036.photobucket.com/albums/a441/chronoxxx/20161008_172743_zpsdcgqj7zi.jpg)
Deploying the pliers was easy. The seller probably oiled all the joints prior shipping. The pliers though, had two strange things going on. First of, it is a new-style Wave head with coarse serration. The serration and wire cutter seem unused. Second, the pivot is pretty stiff to the open. There are visible dents on the pin. Maybe someone hit the pin to make it tighter?
(http://i1036.photobucket.com/albums/a441/chronoxxx/20161008_172559_zpsmybw4laq.jpg)
Of course, I would check the date codes for anymore surprise 1008 / 0209

My Camo Charge that arrived today
Camo Zonz Woodlands Charge TTi (yah, I got this puppy. Probably the very first one on eBay >:D)
You can see the metal bar, on which you flick the blade out, is thinner on the Woodlands, while the other two are thicker and about the same shape and size.

I vaguely remember it is something like the 420HC blade is punched, while the 154CM and S30V blades are laser cut. This allows the hole to be bigger for comfort.

Wife picked up an office chair from a yard sale. I found one of the bolts holding the right side arm was broken off.
There was a little piece of metal sticking up...only thing I had near me was the OHT. The way the tips of the pliers are made it perfect for removing that broken bolt....none of my SAKs could have done that!

Once removed, my Centurian easily handled putting the new screw in and tightening all the rest of the screws...

Yep, back to the Centurian for the rest of the month!

Like it so far, in spite of the polar views here on the forum. I have a couple of mods I am planning to do / test. So far I replaced the saw with a Wave file (just dropped it in) and dyed the yellow bits black. The ferro rod did not like the dye or the heat or the added salt to the mixture, it came out a little grainy. It still works though.
Mods that I have planned:
Fit a Wave scissors - it fits, but there needs some work done to close the tool completely.
Test if a Surge Blade exchanger will fit where the saw goes, pivot size is OK, but it might be a tad to thick. The bits will not fit with the tool closed, they are to long.
That is all for now.

Signal for me.Nice :tu: I had the same result with the ferro rod on mine. Only after did I discover it can be popped out. So I got a new set and dyed them to the proper red I wanted.

But then the guy had a seller's remorse, canceled my order, and relisted the item for $79.99 http://www.ebay.com/itm/122183547991 :rant: His message, "I am sorry but there was a malfunction in the price of this listing". From order to cancel in 15 minutes!

- Old-style Surge 0213 date code on both handles. Grimes and some rust, but most tools have little to no sign of use. Unfortunately no saw blade or sheath, but I can't really complain for $35
- New-style Wave 1004/1104 date codes. Is this one first production run? It has PAT PEND stamped on handles, and pentalobe security screws. Basically a new piece, with original sheath.
- Orange Fuse: this is a pleasant surprise, as it has almost no pain loss on the handles. Besides the pliers, all other tools are unused. It was said that the owner was a lady, who used it only a few times. Lucky me :D

That is good to know, I just had a look on Oz LM site, they want $28 for it - Out of Stock, where as on the US site it is $8. That is a bit steep I'd say. Pity the US one does not ship to Oz. At today's rate it is not even $11 Oz.
A mate took it on a two day hike, and I am keen to hear his thoughts.

My newly acquired black OHT, that I got from sLaughterMed (for a DEAL!!!) is in need of repair. I was tightening a Phillips head screw on the lid to a big pot, and part of the tip of the screwdriver broke off!

I stumbled upon a nice TSA confiscated PST today at the gunshow. It is an 1089 with minor scuffs and a nylon Leatherman sheath. I removed the glue/ tar/ plaster from all of the implements and scrubbed it down with a strong detergent. Blew it out and hosed it down with WD40. Wrapped the tool in saran wrap and scrubbed the sheath with laundry detergent. I slipped the tool into the sheath and it is currently drying on my work bench. I'm very happy to say the least. tom. :multi: :cheers:

When we move to the new house, all my tools will be down in the basement garage, in my workshop. This kit I make up will be on main floor for all petty work needing done around the house.
That way I don't need to clutter up my garage with tool boxes. Just 2 vehicles and a motorcycle...and maybe an air compressor. Basically, my dream of "3 white walls" garage!!
All my other garages have always been packed with crap!

I paid like $35 for it used with some minor paint loss and all tools in new condition, for collecting purpose. I would say a standard Skele or CX would be better utility, as the serration length on the RX is a bit too long. The modified sheepfoot blade is probably only good for cutting packaging tape in everyday setting. Also, I wish the paint was matte instead of glossy, and maybe in black/ orange tones. The Leupold is a fine example of a paint job done right :tu:

DMAX Signal and Skeletool
What is the "DMAX" signal? Is that a particular side run or a branded leatherman?

http://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,68671.0.html
Large DMAX logo on the blade.
Skeletool frame is black/dark-orange with silver tools/springs
Signal, everything that is normally yellow is dark-orange

Yes, it was me :cheers:
Maybe you right about $202, but, if I remember correctly, MSRP in 2006 was ~$150, so overprice is not too much :P
In addition, "color printing" - it's 24K gold plated 8)
Date codes: 1004 1004

I knew this was a possibility when I didn't check the "this is special to me- don't replace" box on the warranty form. My Charge Ti has been sent back, replaced with a TTi.
I am torn... happy to have a newer MT with an s30v blade and gut hook... but the saw feels thinner and flimsier and my loose opening plier head is now a stiff opening one. It's not gritty, just stiff.
I only bring this up because mostly all LMs I have purchased brand new are loose and free ... while the warranty replacements I have received (a couple) usually are stiff. Just an observation.
Any thoughts from anyone on the TTi... promise I'm not griping; I love it! Just want some input from the community :-)

All my new Leathermans (which isn't many) have had stiff pliers initially.Likewise on the "few new." I've purchased a BO Wave and a Rebar; all my others were purchased elsewhere. The rebar for sure had smooth loose movement. Can't remember how the wave was out the box... actually my skele CX was new too and those were stiff... and my first LM was new; a wingman and those are a different story. So four NIB ones and many others used.
Just gonna work em in and get them well oiled and used.

This is my latest, not counting that wave plus, that hasn’t come yet. Thanks again to Poncho for his advise and thoughts on this tool.

I am cursed this week. A seller canceled a sale of Charge Tti Camo, and another seller seems to ship an original Wave to wrong address. Worse yet, it is shown delivered days ago. Not sure whether I can get my tool or money back. I would rather have the Wave... :poh:Was that on eBay? I think it was on my watch list....

Was that the Charge with the older scales? That sucks.. Did he give any reasons for that?

For the Wave, the USPS driver screwed up. He mis-scanned it as "delivered" when doing his route. So it is somewhere in one of the local businesses. I called USPS a few days ago, and got a call back from the local branch today. They left the business (where they believe dropping my tool by mistake) a message to see if they can retrieve the package. There are more than the Wave in it. I cross my fingers, hoping it will find its way back to me unharmed. I rather have the package than any refund money.
On another note, if you guys sell thing on eBay, consider following recommendations:
- Make your USPS shipping label with Paypal, do not hand write the address and pay at the PO.
- Unless you sell fragile stuffs, spend the extra money (if you have to) on delivery confirmation, not insurance, if you want to be 100% sure it get to the recipient
- Be professional, if you do not make labels with Paypal, provide your buyers with tracking number. Do not wait until they ask you "where the hell is my stuff?"
As I am typing this message, eBay closed my case, for the tracking number showing the items delivered. I don't blame the seller, as he did his due diligence, but why do I have to take the hit when the carrier screwed up? >:( I made an appeal.
Post by: chrono on January 26, 2018, 06:22:56 PM
When I appealed the case, eBay allowed me 5 days to provide proof of the mis-ship. Luckily, USPS came thru when I was on the 3rd day.

On today, my PST's collection was exactly the 142 items.
And today I picked up a package with Collector's Edition PST.
I was very interested what serial number (from 500) I will get.
What do you think the number was on it?
That's right - #142 :D

Post by: ThundahBeagle on March 02, 2018, 03:48:30 AM
Browsing the isle, it called to me and I saw it...
A brand new in blister pack, new old stock, still stocked on the rack, all by itself, Leatherman PSTII, with leather sheath complete with dust. Been there some 17 years. None other to be found on the store. I had to take a picture and double check. I had never seen this color sceme of package before. Black stripe across the top, the rest of the package printing is orange but fading as you scan to the right, where a grid pattern emerges.
I thought it might be a knock off. Double checked. Nope. It was real. Flipped the pack over and saw it was dated 2001.
I tried to resist, but the thought of someone else coming into the store five minutes after I left and buying it, was just too much.
$50 gone and one museum quality PSTII acquired. I think it will stay new in blister pack.
And the file is too large to attach! C'mon!

Man that's some new old stock. Where did you find that one?
Thanks Greg
Found it at a True Value hardware store., of all places. I almost smurfed myself when I saw it there. All alone. No other Leathermans around, never mind more PSTII's. Nothing in terms of multi tools. This was dusty. It may have been there 17 years but I didn't want to leave it for the next guy to get it, so I shelled out for it.

Thanks Steve. Had I known it was there two months ago, I would not have needed to seek one out in the tools needed section. Sure surprised the tar outta me to see it there. Haven't been to this store in years
Post by: ThundahBeagle on March 02, 2018, 06:21:26 AM
The owner's father started the place, and the owner was there with his grown son.

Came today and you cannot tell it is not new out of the box. New style sheath and all. Very tight. No scratches.
Been setting here working it, getting some lube in the pivots and slightly adjusting the screws. Will still take some time to break it in.
This makes two in my collection, thought it is actually my fourth. I have my OG Wave from the early days. I had picked up a spare but sold it a while back.
I had also bought a second gen bo Wave in 2015 and sold it in 2016. I decided I wanted a second gen again. Not really interested in the Wave + and I got this new Wave for reasonable price. I really wanted it for the ability to quickly add or remove the pocket clip. Haha

First i decided to get a Skeletool CX to e carried when wearing shorts, my wave and bit kit etc in my skinth were to bulky on my hip.
(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180729/e4c56adc52166978b9891c5ac88d8c8d.jpg)
Then i read about the crunch and decided that would be a great addition to my tools, so,i ordered it.
(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180729/26db9bd7a981ed73f3ab092aaa160baa.jpg)
Well when having the skeletool around in my pocket i can do with most of the days. But sometimes you need more, or 2 tools at the same time, and i wanted it not to be too exsmurfve, because it will be in my car or work bag most of the time. That was where the rebar came in. The sheath of the skeletool was perfect for it, because the rebar came in a small leather one, and the skeletool had the big nylon :)

Excellent condition apart from saw has been replaced with another serrated blade! :think:
I've removed the extra blade because it didn't fit properly! Too thick and wide, tool didn't close correctly (just put a couple of washers in for now) ordered a saw blade off Loki Mobile.
It is also etched with a series of numbers! I wondered if anyone had any information on this?
Thanks.....

Looks like a NATO stock number. congrats on the CORE ! :cheers: :tu:
Yep, I'm pretty sure that is an NSN. Well done !
For some reason I have a vague idea that the last two digits might be the year - I have an "07" and an "08".

A new in box original Wave. I bought 7 retired leathermans, the last month, but they are all back in Denmark and I am in Australia, so I have to wait 5 month to see them.. :cry:

Though that sheath is made in US, it is cheaply made. It is nowhere near the quality or style of the lovely original Wave sheath.

Chrono,
Sadly the first original wave steath does not fit the current generation, so for the looks we have to do with whats available now.
Altough i have a new skinth mondo on the way, still like leather sheaths.

checked a few more wally worlds, none had the clearance knives on display anymore, used that brickseek.com but wasnt accurate or the store employees moved them out of sight when they remodeled knife display case inventory, I read that this was done nationally but who knows. So I went back to the store closest to me and a nice lady who works there showed me some of the other clearance stuff was on top shelf of case and pushed to the rear. there was a wave for $21, Gerber MP450 for $9, Suspenion $7, an awesome fixed blade buck Mesa $11 and a few other nice deals. I'm not advocating rushing to the store as it seems like its hit or miss but if you're near one take a look.
I assume you got them all! :pok: :o
Latest LM is a Charge+ with brown leather sheath. Drawer queen. :facepalm:

Yesterday I finally became the owner of a BO Charge+ which I bought in a great deal discovered and shared by SteveC last November. Forwarding took a while becuse of circumstances out of my control, but it's here at last. And I like it! :multi:
I also purchased a regular snap sheat in anticipaion of the Charge because by default it comes with the tactical molle one without the elastic slots on the sides. I also have a BO bit extender on the way, this will be a proper user MT, a user kit.

Factory error ? (Juice Pro that managed to sneak out of the LM factory dressed in XE6 scales)That is cool for sure. Maybe after the Pro was discontinued, they used the chasis and tools with XE6 scales to use up the parts? :think:
I'm quite Juice naive, so that is speculation on my part.

I picked up a Flair in pretty rough shape. Its sitting in some degreaser at the moment. I hope it looks better and can be cleaned up of all the grime and what looked to be sharpie on it. I'll report back once I scrub it later today. They poor tool was in bad shape and I just couldn't pass it up.Good luck with the Flair! :tu:

This thing has the best fit & finish of any LM PST I've ever held. Should be for $150. :rofl:
I normally avoid 'Limited Edition' tools like the plague, but am happy to have this historical Limited Edition from Leatherman.

Indeed, I had some reservations about the Limited PST price, but unlike LM pumping out 5 different colors of the same tool(ex. Signal), the LE PST does seem to be a unique tool in the current line-up. And the fit & finish are quite outstanding, along with being the first MT in ages that LM actually put the country of manufacture onto. Plus Tim's signature stamped in is neat. Now I just need Tim's real signature engraved on the one blank handle side. :ahhh :)
:iagree: very cool 8) :like:Thank you, Speedy! :cheers:

My Wave Plus is the perfect-compromise between weight, and functionality for my purposes. So, if and when I decide to shell-out for a new Leatherman it will be the 'black-version' of this model. I'm really into 'multis' but knives, always 'win-out' in the 'priority-section' for some reason. :drool: 8)

Very nice! While the SS is nice looking, the BO version is quite the looker as well. :)

Incredible deal. Wow!!!!
This just arrived today. I lightly used PST2 and leather sheath. An early one from before Leatherman started stamping the name on the handles. And as luck would have it, it’s from January of 1997, the same month and year as my PST.

Dear smurf-lord. A gorgeous LM display and it is forbidden to display it? That is some serious MT-purgatory. :ahhh

That’s just >:D if you are not aloud to display your tools :facepalm:
I get where she's coming from...
An 11yr old son that almost daily brings back his friends - I think she just doesn't want a MT (AKA knife) display that starts rumours. "So and so dad collects knives", "has them displayed in the house" etc etc
It's not really something I want to be known for - nobody really knows about my collection. My partner and son and two very close mates...that's it....Oh' and you lot!! :pok: :D
Besides, out of sight means I appreciate them more when they do come out.

Makes sense now. :cheers:
Believe me, the reputation as "the guy who owns a thousand Leathermans" is aggravating, as you rightly assume. For one, I only have 350 MTs/SAKs. And secondly, only a small portion are Leathermans. But, in the US, some people even call a $10 Wal-mart tool a "leatherman." I refer to such people as 'Tool-Bozos'.
I don't even display mine(not yet anyway...haha). :)

Like new condition so I think this may also get locked away until I find a ‘user’. But I think I’ll still do a short write-up on my thoughts compared to a few of my other LMs. Even with Free breaking cover, I am sure many will still see the Charge as a desirable MT. :dunno:

A PST here as well (0595). Not as nice a GLBM's, but I'm happy with it nonetheless. My first and most likely last and only PST, I just wanted to experience it, and wow, no wonder there's such love surrounding it, so light, slim purposeful. Tim Leatherman really got something right here.Very nice find there, Exeter! :like:
As far as being nice, the one my mother found required a lot of resto work. They are always nicer when they don't need any work. :ahhh

A little oxidation on the sheath’s brass rivets, and it looks like a spot of surface rust on the cutters, so this baby’s getting released from its packaging...20 years on. Look away now if you’re a collector of unopened MTs. :facepalm:

PST needs a gentle wipe with an oil rag after 20 years in plastic. But everything perfect, blade sharp, nice snap on the pliers and tools. Dated 1100 how cool is that!
Sheath rivets have quite a bit of green copper corrosion but simply wipes off. A little oil on a qtip should sort them out.
Nice surprise in the sheath...user guide, accessory brochure and registration page. Wonder if I register if I can still qualify for the cash draw? :think:
Something special about being the first-time user of this classic Leatherman. I’ll put the sheath away but will certainly carry the PST on special days, and use with care. :salute:

Great score! I was giddy when I found my 1995 version and sheath (in well-used condition) for $15. At least yours has the hard wire notch, mine precedes that by at least a year. A lot of people seem to dislike the blade, but I do. Great for detail work.
I could see them bringing it back, but it does need some changes. The openers are useless, I've tried them both and they sucked. And the file's screwdriver tip will not fit the ever-present Phillips screw. Maybe replace it with a modified version (shorter, cross-cut, and using thicker stock, but the same tip) of the Style file? And of course, a Rebar plier head.

Every time I pick up my mini I ask this question..without a doubt the biggest :think: I have about Leatherman. This tool is literally perfection. Its size and capabilities put it in a category of its own. Not to mention the overly strong clip point blade which is amazing for chip cutting wood.
If I was ever to become a collector...the mini is what I would collect.

It is quite a little masterpiece. The little details boggle, like the v-cuts that form the stops, the dimple to retain the plier head when closed, the wheel inside the handle, how it all folds together. Even the tools have a SAK-like snap when opening and closing. They got it so right...and unchanged, still selling 20 years on. More than anything, this probably represents more of the engineering mastermind of Tim Leatherman than any of his other tools. :like:

I present to you all, the newest member of the family!!! It's a '17 model that was at a big-brand-blue-crew-store and had no sheath (someone had "liberated it" from the blister package); I'd been eyeing it for months but had not seen it this past month 'til today. I was at the store browsing when, I heard a customer ask for "that knife that was on special and if it had been reduced more" ; when I turned, the associate had the ST in his hands, and said "no; same price as last time, half its latest price tag". Customer left it; I took it! And since I had a NIP Surge Premium Leather Sheath... :woohoo:

Great score! :like: Even after buying several different models, the ST300 is still my go-to Leatherman. It is comfortable to use, and takes on all but the most demanding of tasks--and for that, I grab the real tools. Need to get that bit adapter myself. I had a Gerber I used with it, but lost it somehow.
I had a recent situation like that myself. About 5 years ago, I spotted a Surge at a local military surplus store, that also carried quite a bit of assorted "junk". They wanted $100 for it, despite the fact someone had lost the file and the slip it goes into. Last year, they were clearing out a lot of the stuff the store had, since they were either closing it or merging it with a pawn shop the guy who owns it also had. I ended up getting the Surge for under $50; or around $50 with tax.

It isn't a tool I ever took a liking to, but the build quality and ease of use are much appreciated. With all of the ST300 love I've seen recently, maybe I need to give the 300 another try soon? Perhaps I tried it to early in my MT journey(back in 2017 I think). :think:

I can't seem to loosen up my pliers, when I use it to clamp down on something it seems to get tighter, do your have the same problem?The second P4, I bought to use, does the same. Then using the crimper in the back of the pliers head, it loosens again.
It has gotten better with use though and hopefully will continue to get better. I am not a fan of stiff pliers, but LM seems to think selling tools with stiff pliers is O.K and we either have to send the tool back or break it in. Not a good statement for an expensive tool for sure.
I hypothesize that the pivot pin is slightly misshapen, and moves ever so slightly when switching from pliers to crimpers. Hypothetically, the pin should grind down over time/use to an ideal shape.
I weighed the prospects of paying $10 to ship it to LM, waiting several weeks for a replacement, and risk getting another one with tight pliers; against possibly working the issue out during a break in period. I did email LM about it, as it is the second LM I bought with overly stiff pliers. The other one was my Surge I carry sometimes. It has loosened up enough to be quite usable, but I am hoping it loosens up another 10% at some point. :ahhh
LM replied to send it to them for repair, so that option is still on the table if the pliers stop getting better.

A brand new Limited Edition LM Piranha 2 (Wrangler collaboration from 2015). I've payed 20€ which is the usual price for the regular one over here.
This thing is a solid piece and seems to fit perfectly into the additional compartments of usual LM sheaths.
Bits are held in place very well.
I love the smell of copper in the morning :D
Here's some info about it on MTO...

I bought one of these single piece tools a while back, not knowing it was for adjusting a weapon. Sits in my draw (no M16 in my house). If I was in the US I’d be happy to fwd to you. :cheers:

I'm in Ireland though... they took all our M16 a while ago :facepalm:
PS: I'd prefer a Heckler & Koch G3 over the M16 I guess.

H&K sure make some good product.
Here’s the tool...”Rail”, dug our the draw. Never used it 😐 but has a couple long LM bits on the holder that I’ve used once or twice. Guess it looked cool when I bought it, can’t remember when...long time now.

Been thinking about getting a Pump, but my current shotgun doesn't need chokes, and is not a take-down gun (meaning it can't be disassembled for storage/transport) But, the JC Higgins I'm looking at does have the ability to use choke tubes and to break both down for maintenance/cleaning I might need a pin punch. All are of quite some age (the JC Higgins at least 60, the Ithaca 50); and use flat-headed screws pretty much entirely throughout; except the Ithaca's plastic recoil pad is held on with Phillips screws). And the gut-hook will work great if I do decide to go hunting this year (Granddad hasn't hunted in nearly 20 years, but some of my friends are avid hunters to this date).

It looks to be a nut cracker? I'm guessing the seller wanted to show something hanging inside using the magnets.
Apparently the sale also includes 2 leatherman magnetic display stands (2nd picture shows one behind the larger LM display case)

The first one went to my nephew who was so excited when he saw mine because it was a tool he could take to school. Then another went to my wife when she was going to visit in the hospital where she didn’t want anything that could be considered a “weapon”. I know at least one niece really liked the one I gave her brother, so this may need replacing before long.

I grew up with you always had a knife and flashlight with you, and trying to get my nieces and nephews to believe the same. Now with knives not being allowed everywhere, the PS Style gives at least some tool capabilities even where knives are not allowed.

Another ATF branded Squirt E4 to go with the previous one. This one with “Explosives Training”. Wonder if they give these away at training classes? :cheers:
Very cool. I like SAKs and MTs engraved with logos of goverment agencies; but this is the first LM (after several Vic and Spyderco) I have seen. First I've also seen that A: didn't have RadioShack Branding and B: not red .It looks like a standard Storm Gray LM, but I've never seen a Squirt EL in that color.

"PREMIX" is a plastics company. I think the beige colored stuff I cleaned off the file and out of the tool in places was sand used for sandcasting; and could suggest the issue behind the rough action. Or even plastic itself.

First I bought a Hybrid from CeHo, then I found a Vista in a shop in Madrid and now I have found the last one , the Genus , can't wait till it arrives. :woohoo:
I have some problems with my Windows laptop so I'm using now my Mac but I don't have all the tools on the Mac to handle pics so I will post them when my Windows laptop is repaired. :hatsoff:
:sa:
That's some score mate, so until you can post those pics I'll be here, waiting...
:popcorn:

I spend hours looking for that VISTA , i'm sure there are more stores that still have them.
Here I bought mine : https://www.latiendadecaza.com/leatherman-vista-blister-p-1348.html
I just send them an email if they ship to Belgium and they replied they did so I bought one. They only reply in Spanish so you have to translate all there emails.
Good luck

I don't know whether to clean it up before condemning it to the cupboard of doom.
I would like to leave the black oil on as I like to store my collection mint as new and this oil will demonstrate this fact but worried if left on may eventually stain the coyote finish, so may be prudent to remove.
Anyone have any view either way?

Most types of lubricant, including motor oil, will not harm the coyote finish but I will clean the outside just in case to avoid stains and leave the tools inside with oil ;)Thanks have given it a wipe with a soft cloth :tu:

The leatherman fairies visited me again today to drop off a new rebar. It looks a little grubby due to the black oily stuff that always is on new BO tools.The black grit is the Black Oxide dust from final sharpening.

You do want to clean that grit and dust from the tool.
I am not keen on the motor oil idea, some oils do have additives that will not harm the tool or finish, but can harm the storage box you store your baby.
Simple mineral oil is a good choice, cleans up well, no Oder, no harm to food or containers.
Congrats on the Coyote Brown Rebar. If wanting the SS version, may want to consider the Heritage version for the retro sheath.

Received this morning Leatherman Charge TTI (+). Medium size MT clamp, rather tapered beak, smaller than the Surge but much lighter too. The advantage of this clamp is mainly the "titanium" thus lightening the weight of the tool, and the blade in S30V ( cutting edge that holds well, but sharpening the blow more difficult). The clamp comes with bits, a removable belt clip, a grommet, and a nylon case. All tools are lockable. It is generally beautiful material .Nice looking Charge! :like:

These little pocket tools are pretty sweet. I previously ordered 1 3 5 7 8...so this order has...
2,4,6,9,10
Croc
Rail
Pump
Grind
Micra-Pink
Pocket clips for Surge (will still ride in sheaths most likely)
The 4, rail and pump have similar features. has a removable or 3 tools.
And BTW, the Croc is a monster. Not a small thing like 1-10. About the size of the Grind/Pump/Rail.
LM did good :tu:

I have been critical of Free on the forum, mostly the initial LM marketing (grey sheath, better than Wave, etc.), but I must admit that it’s not a bad product, and I must commend LM for trying something new with some quite advanced technical features such as the magnetic retainment and plier head locking systems.
Sure, it has a 2D Phillips, the awl should have a pointed tip, a one inch rule is a little pointless and they could have put a metal saw on the file, even though it’s very short. But there are some nice details like the scraper on the large flat, the wire stripper on the medium flat, the machined thumb rest on the scissors and the wire cutters that are like mini shears.
I may try a little EDC in Jan after the PST challenge is over.

I’m sure to get lots of suggestions on this one, snuff pouch, coin dispenser, broken Gerber bits holder... :facepalm:
Has the old logo and branding “Leatherman Tool Group, Inc”. Was thinking the tool adapter, but that came in a hard belt case. Too large for the MiniTool or Micra. Predates Juice/Squirt. Maybe some kind of combination of tools?
So let’s see who’s first to give a credible answer, but will accept other use submissions too. :pok:

Seriously though, I think :think: that there may be a variation that isn't a case but holds the adapter and the bits that would fit in the pouch :think: Or at least seems like I remember seeing something like that sometime or another :shrug:

Advertised as ‘hardly used’, and when I met the seller, he said it’s been in his cupboard, forgotten and unused since he bought it. Not a scratch and as clean and shiny as the day it came out of Portland.
Dang...I’m so pleased it’s mint, but I was expecting a user. Now this one has to get put on the shelf. Not that I’m complaining; the PST-II is one of my favorites.
And this gives me an excuse to look for another... :facepalm:

I think it’s still a mystery... :dunno:Nothing mysterious.
It's just sheath for tool adapter and bits. In plastic case without clip.
Comes leather or nylon variant.

Email Leatherman? :dunno:From Leatherman today:
“Thank you for contacting Leatherman Tool Group.
That is an old sheath that held the bits for our tools. There was a bit kit that came with it, but we are no longer selling those and have upgraded to the latest version of our bits.”
So this confirms wowaboro‘s post. And good of Leatherman to reply to this obscure request. :salute:

Still a very nice early Cabela's PST. The ones with etching on the blade are even rarer ( I think they might have been from the original production run, certainly they are very old)

Retired my wave last week and put the Free P2 into my EDC. Picked up the thumb tabs for the knife from ZapWizard.
Years ago I added a Nite Ize hip clip to the front of the Leatherman bit card. Foregoing the Leatherman Piranha traditional bit, I’m able to attach it to the back of the Leatherman Bit Card with some 3M double sided tape. The tape holds it secure while allowing me to remove the Piranha easily enough (able to remove and put back several times before the tape loses its grip, but thinking of switching to some small neodymium magnets).
Those curious, that’s the Leatherman E55Bx knife. Absolutely love it; favorite knife I’ve ever owned. Terrified of the day I misplace it or other and have to switch to something else.
I’ve stopped carrying my Hatori mini flashlight and instead I’ve been carrying my AirPods Pro and Leatherman Bit extender with Loggerhead ‘ratchet’ adapter in my jeans coin pocket.
I may go back to carrying my Hatori at some point. 5.11 started making comfortable jeans with hip pockets and added belt loops and am just waiting for the right balance in my bank account to make that purchase.
Let me know what you guys think!

From a friend, he got it from his local hardware store in the Netherlands. Every once in a while you can still find gems like that over here. Sometimes the asking price is way high, but sometimes they just want to move the ancient inventory.
Post by: nitram on April 11, 2020, 10:42:06 AM
I just pulled a Woodland Camo Charge + out of the box to start wiping down the Black Oxide and the tool fell apart on me. The set screws on the serrated blade side backed out and the thing fell apart. I’m beyond a huge LM fan, but these issues are becoming ridiculous.
Geez, that is terribly disappointing. Like you I am a big fan of Leatherman but you do have to wonder what they have been up to lately.
This is more than just the occasional unfortunate miss in quality control. Their average customer will only buy one, maybe two, of their product in a lifetime. If this is their experience that will end soon.

What is Leatherman doing :facepalm:
Well, I was tired last night so I just looked at it again. When I grabbed it the set screw fell out of the tool. Does anyone know if it is supposed to have loctite on it? There is none. I could fix it myself, but I don’t want to mess the beautiful scales up and LM needs to be aware of this nonsense.
Post by: Wspeed on April 11, 2020, 05:11:56 PM
I would see if you could email Leatherman about your one :tu:

I have found some do and some haven’t got any loctite

I will do that. I bought it from Blade HQ so I emailed them. Mainly because LM’s warranty department is shut down right now. I need to move fast, as this was a limited run.

An OG Supertool (0696) in near mint condition... apart from the rust caused by not removing that sticker :P
It's been 25 years since I have removed a sticker on a Supertool :D
Some small dark spots are left which is fine for me. It will be used anyways...

To tell the truth ( and maybe because I'm spoiled by its larger sibling the ST300 and the Wave), I'm not in awe with first impressions.
It looks small ( but it's the same legth as my Wave), and kind of cheapish; the creases from the handle forming are visible, and I feel sharp edges all around the handles. The tools are somewhat stiff and, contrary to my-then-new Wave, ST, Revs, it appears to be bone dry; no sign of lube whatsoever (can anyone who had bought any brand new LTG tool confirm this, or is this just a one-case?). The locks rattle a bit side to side, and it's more pronounced on the phillips' side. This one came with the "angry bird" leather sheath; the description said it came with "standard sheath" so, I was expecting the nylon with snap sheath and was ready to do the "front pocket mod" as per Mc Stitchy; that's why I ordered the RBD together with it. Oh well, guess I'll buy one, and in tje meantime use my old, ratty-looking Wave nylon sheath (can I call it patina'ed!?!?). Maybe I'm just nitpicking, I don't know.
On the other hand and after reading about the many pliers stiffness complaints in different newer models, I squeezed hard on them handles and... no pliers stiffness after 5 attempts!!! Loving its lightness and the aggresiveness of the file (for the moment, to the touch). The fit for the RBD is perfect, and all handle markings (branding, rule scales) arecrisp and easily readable (unlike the ST's; chalk one up for the Rebar!). I'm really glad it does not have the in-vogue exagerated splay of newer tools, and that it is easily modifiable ( will look into a PE blade).
Anyway, I'm glad I got it, and I'll give it some carry time and see how it goes. Thanks for being such enablers and motivators! :tu:

Never mind...just went through the Rebar club and it's because of the changed position of the file and saw blades, as they now reside where the bladed one have the SE/PE blades. :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm:

The First Gen, in many ways, is a far superior model to the later ones. You've got the extra-small SD, and in my experience, the finer teeth grip so much better than the ST300's head. Mine is a 2011, and I got it really cheap when a local military surplus store was moving.

I never bought one since I considered it to be a less useful version of the Skeletool, and I already found the Skeletool to be a bit too basic for my needs most of the time, and that one at least had a bit driver...
But if I'm not mistaken the Freestyle is out of production, which changes things for me :doh:.
Anyway, I'm surprised by how small it actually is and how light it carries in the pocket, even compared to the Skeletool.
This is not a multitool without a bit driver, this is a pocket knife that comes with a pair of pliers...

:iagree: The Cruch is a really neat tool. Those pocket clips are pretty cool too. How well do they work?
Thanks! The clips both work great with a nice snug/deep carry and stay tightly attached in the pocket with the wrench adjustment screw. The main issue obviously is that as soon as you need to actually adjust the wrench, they either come loose and rattle around under the screw, or you need to take them off entirely. The wire clip has a gap up near the screw so I can fairly easily just loosed the screw and slide it off. The solid clip not so much. I'm considering trying to put a little dab of some sort of adhesive under the solid clip where it surrounds the the screw hole/bit driver, so it will stay in place when the screw is lose. I'm a thousand times more likely to carry a tool if it has a pocket clip versus needing a sheath/holster (ahem, CenterDrive).

A moss green Skeletool and a pair of sublime green and columbia blue Skeletool KBX knives. Frankly, I think the green is the same on both the Skeletool and the KBX. I never went for the moss green Skeletool because I wasn't sure if it was the same green as found on the other one. I was wrong.

But what I'm really stoked about is this ST300. Can't beat $50 shipped for a brand new tool. Obviously not new in terms of ownership, but was basically bought and never used. Guess it was too big for the PO? I've already put it to use using the awl to clean up some holes in drywall so I can fill them and paint them over. Just really prefer the traditional style tools.

I went to our local Cash Converter today. Picked up a like new Free P2 with sheath for $50 and a Free T2 for $20. I really like the P2, but the T2 is disappointing. Any SAK is far better.
Congrats on getting such a good deal on those :o :like:

So I received Mt leatherman T4 a week ago. Its OK but not great. Very bulky, I like the Free P4 and the features on the T4 are good but it's just soooooo big. A medium sized Swiss army :climber: has the same features but half the thickness.
Really interested in your brutal honesty
Any chance of uploading a pic showing the size comparison between the T4 and SAK?
Post by: Yoda mpb on March 04, 2021, 10:50:05 AM

It's the thickness and square finish. As a small pocket carry the SAK wins. The leatherman is clearly a better tool. I might take the pocket clip off and see how that feels.
I own a P2 as well and the size difference between the two is minimal, I feel like I should just carry the P2 and have a set of pliers on me for not much difference in size.
I'll try again to post pics. Won't seem to upload them.

Love me free P2. Curious as to what you would modify. Used mine all weekend for a variety of jobs and it's been great. Only thing I'm not overly happy with is the large serations on the blade, they seem overly deep.I would like to see a nail knick on the package opener for starters. Maybe smooth out the plier grips a little.

To commemorate the fifth year passing (3/18/16 DOD) of my late father. He had earned the nickname “the old Gray Coyote,” while he worked at the Lake Powell Generating Station. I also bought a green Micra for my Mom, with a howling Coyote on the back, and a personal engraving on the other side. I want to get a similar tool for my brothers when I can.

I just caved and ordered this Charge+. I also have a Leatherman Micra for myself, and my brothers I’ve ordered to hope to get to them around the time my father passed. The Charge+ might be a gift for my older brother for a different reason, or I just might keep it myself. If I do, I’d sell my Wave+

I think the design is bulkier than it should be, and the big spacer at the end should've been smaller, allowing for decent tool lengths. The knife blade is about as long as the frame, but the secondary tools are as much as an inch shorter than they could be. Heck, a Ranger from Victorinox weighs about the same, is roughly the same width, and has lots more tools. The same cost roughly too. The tools on the Free are thicker, and surprisingly, the smashed/semi-flat Phillips is the first I've had that didn't suck.
I ordered the pocket clip from LM as soon as I got home.

It’s in good shape although does have a name badly scratched on one side, luckily it’s quite small so no deal breaker.
As I’ve found with other Juices in my collection, the flatheads are difficult to get out. Will give it an oil and hopefully all good

Finally succumbed to the "C" word, and ordered (and got) an example. Just like I've read, it is a marvelously engineered tool, exquisite to look and hold; love the capability of using regular or LTG's bits without adapters! Although small, the file is usable (somewhat aggresive since it is of recent manufacture, 01 and 03/20 dates; I understand that earlier models have a finer cut.), and not dinky like the Rev/Sidekick/Wingman/P series' one.
The SE blade is sharp and functional and, dare to say it, I like it. Also to my liking is the pin vise, and integral cutters. Also nice is the two flat and #1-2 Phillip's drivers, which are the sizes that I most commonly used, and not the plethora found in other Leathermans. My only gripes are easily fixed, as the tools are somewhat floppy and my guess is that by tightening the pivot it will be alright and, the tools and adjusting bolt are "gritty" and might need a bit of oil. I'm glad I finally got it. :tu:
One question though, is the Crunch the only MT without a can opener!?!?!? :dunno::rofl:

I honestly love all three. Outstanding job, Leatherman. The Crunch is just a really well engineered and unique tool. The Bond and Curl just rock a timeless simplicity. Sleek, lightweight, and high quality.
All three tools just feel amazing in the hand. Very sleek. I feel like lots of multitools feel like double the size for worse functionality. The awl on the Curl just makes me more annoyed that the Wave doesn't have one! The knife "issue" on the Bond seems to be a massive overreaction. At least on mine the tension is such that that knife is never coming out accidentally.
I ordered a second crunch just because I like this one so much and I'm seeing the prices start to rise precipitously on ebay.

I was hoping that the Curl's price had not changed and that the code still worked. Very happy that nothing had changed.
After finding that the code still worked, I impulsively added the Bond to my order. This time, I can tell my wife that I saved her money. Usually I am the one being told :rofl:

As close as you can get to the original sheath that was included with the 1st generation Wave.
Do not see as many on guys belts today, but when you did, you knew that person had a Wave and that he took care of his toys

here is the original wave sheath if you want to compare. The wave it came with is an 09/99.

a gen 2 CS4 06/13 ($50)
and a leatherman charge plus ($50) 07/17 The black scale is missing the + if you look closely.

Did not expect until next Tuesday at the earliest.
Found this on the auction site, listed USED. Seller was a 100% type, so took chance, my bid had a cap, and did not it be high with at least an hour to go, so yes I bid and forgot. My first entry held and payment was made.
My 2nd oldest LM, with 1103 s as bd 1203 handles. Inspection picture.

A wingman, very lightly used, best part it was a gift.
To be honest, I confiscated it from a co worker who is not a tool maniac.
Actually all my 3 LMs are free.
I have a rebar from my workplace and a micra from another friend. :whistle:
Post by: LoopCutter on August 20, 2022, 12:30:34 PM
If hanging with you, remind me to put a tether on my shiny MTs 😜
Rebar is my go to tool daily, the ST300 for bigger tasks.
Find yourself a Pulse and experience a level of eloquence that preceded the Rebar🤪

I agree the rocker lock release is a unique challenge! But, there is a very simple work around.
If you have a tool locked open, to release it, you can open any other tool in that end of the handle, and it will also release the lock allowing you to close both implements. 👍
Saving your thumb!

Good find!very true, i am just glad my charge does not have a similar locking mechanism is what i meant to convey

and I left a Craigslist notification running and saw 2 new in packaging swisstool rs for only $65 each. I even posted it on the sak forum and nobody ever called the seller... Nobody but me, she was completely out of the past, no email, PayPal, texting, only a home phone. So initially my pitch to let me pay her by PayPal and her to ship struck out. So while on Craigslist I happened to see a Knockoff Kershaw a100. Because I had missed on the rs's I hit him up and offered $20 for it. [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]
Then I had a dream, of the money I'm going to make selling the rs's on eBay, and I called the little old grandma up on her land-line and left her a message on an honest to goodness tape answering machine. And so I mailed her a box with $130 in cash, and a prepaid ups label to tape on the box back to me and I've got them now, one is at $100 or so right now on ebay so I might end up paying for both with one sale. The other I'm going to test that rescue cutter on before I sell it.
Then it's that time of the year for my military discount buy at leatherman, so a st300m, a topo signal, and a crunch were ordered and delivered.

And then the new/old juices appeared and I ordered a moss green xe6. Of course I need nothing more, right? Then I made a lowball offer on a spirit x so that may arrive around the time the juice arrives

It's not the honest grandma's you have to worry about, it's the US Postal employees you have to be concerned about (unfortunately a few bad apples spoil it for all the honest ones). And yes, I am speaking from experience - but I found paying extra for insurance seemed to encourage everyone involved to play nice (probably the extra paperwork and awkward explanations needed about missing packages contributed to the extra reliability of delivery).

I didn't think she was the risk. The risk, in my mind, was the possibility of the box not making it to her.

The Juice is a chunky little thing, and the inside tools are very stiff.
I thought I’d like the Rebar more than I do. It’s a great tool, but I suppose because I already own a PST, a Bond, and a Supertool 300, it doesn’t wow me.
The Free P4 is my favourite of the new trio. I wish it was a bit thin and a bit lighter, but it’s got everything I need for everyday carry as I like woodsaw and prefer to have a serrated blade and fixed drivers rather than swapping (and dropping) bits.

My latest OHT looks almost symetrical :dunno:
Oooh man, I know its important to have redundancy when far from homebase but this... :facepalm:
Or, is it the extreme of the N+1 concept!?!? :think:
Just kidding! Keep it, as it makes for one interesting collectible factory one-off/mismanufacture! :tu: :multi:

I got a good chuckle out of it. I thought a klutz added a saw in place of the serrated blade before realizing it was the whole half of the OHT. Interestingly enough, there is only one lock tab, hence "almost symmetrical" :salute:
Now if anyone with a tan OHT with the other two halves, please feel free to contact me...

couple of weeks ago i bought juice XE6 and it came with sheath that is certainly not for Juice, does anyone knows which leatherman came with this kind of sheath?
Possibly a Squirt or a Micra ? I don't know whether a Mini might fit in it.

If it is big enough for a 4 inch tool then it may have came with a Wingman or SideKick :cheers: seems like the earlier ones came with that sheath and a LM carabiner but later ones didn't come with either :salute:the cardboard box had "sidekick" label on it so i guess you are right

Slop on the pliers, blade badly "sharpened" with tip bent, file gunked up, and flat heads a bit rough.

£150, almost half of it shipping, for a new Cam, a Style PS, and two of the Numbers tools.
I joined an archery club at the weekend, so excited to give the Cam a go there.

How did you order through Leatherman HK? @Crunchie64
I was looking at Squirt ES4 stuff a few months ago and the site came up.
It was a surprise that I could order from it, but all I did was add it to my basket, then used ApplePay. It honestly couldn’t have been any easier.
When you choose Apple Pay it knows your address and automatically works out shipping costs, so you can play about with different tools to see how much it’ll cost altogether.
They had Squirts, Styles, Year of the Monkey Charge, loads of unusual things.
The Style, Cam, and others took twelve days to arrive.
