Leatherman Surge mod: replace the 1st gen pliers with the 2nd gen.
on: May 05, 2022, 10:09:42 AM
Hi!
Over the years of using the Surge, the pliers have become slightly loose and the cutting edges have damaged. So I bought 2nd gen. pliers and put them in my Surge. But since the frames of the 1st and 2nd gen. Surge are different, the multitool didn't close completely. I had to use a grinder to remove the corners, just a little bit, and everything began to work perfectly.

P.s. sorry for so huge pictures, friends, i can't find how to post pictures correctly yet.
