G'day Sir. We feel there is nothing wrong in making copies or clones, as along as the changes/improvement made are functional & has some durability, furthermore not having to use proprietary addition. Think Leatherman have caught up with that mentality including others as well. Yeah...we use magnets too with our mods. Work smart, not hard.! It good to see the underdogs are catching up & moving up the ladder. With current world situation, affordability is great marketing. There's a lot more blue collar workers than white collar. Cheers mate from Australia.

So I have to say I’ve been brand loyal for a very long time and I don’t know but I contacted leatherman 6 months ago about warranty work on my wave and was given the run around which I have never had a problem contacting them before but this time was different. It’s almost as though they jacked up the prices but don’t back their product anymore.. so I’m gunna run it my sxs and I’m gunna pick up one of these at 1/5 the price.. leatherman needs to really smarten up cause how many more people might have had an experience like me? I’m all for quality but when it’s not backed up I’m moving on.

I've read that Bibury is the brand for Amazon, and Daicamping is the brand for Aliexpress (both from same maufacturer, as well as SwissTech brand). My Bibury 31-in-1 just arrived from Amazon in order to replace a 3 y/o chinese multitool that was functioning better than OK, and this Bibury is great. When handling, I realized the "skeleton" handle edges were a little bit sharp, so I had to file all the holes down just a bit, losen and lubricate a little bit the screws 'cause it was too hard to open the pliers, and now its a beautiful strong beast!, I'm so pleased with it, now I'm looking forward to "hack" it so the mods fit my personal use. PS: Got as well the Bibury Pro 20-in-1 which I think its a L. Charge clone (smaller than this 31-in-1), and it's beautiful!, has a great geat feeling, very easy on handling (much easier than these beast). Was thinking on return it (I was thinking there's no reason on having 2 great completely functional multitools), but I don't see why not to keep it 'cause it's great as well!

I picked up one for 30-ish usd and got the 4 year warranty for 7$ and it's a great competitive tool. If I was Leatherman, I'd be worried about there being copies out there that are on par with their best stuff. The only differences between the Surge and the Bibury/Di30 are the 2D proprietary bits vs the 3D bits. For 30$ & the 4 yr warranty compared to around 200$ for the Surge, both bit kits and bit extender, I'm very happy with the Bibury.

I like the tuxedo two tone, something different. I just buy whatever I can for the best price. Do you put up an artificial or real tree for the holidays? I like the saw implement on bigger multitools like this Surge clone for light pruning purposes. I pruned the bottom of the Christmas tree with my Leatherman Arc. The saw is very similar to the Wave (second generation and plus) its rounded at the tip and no nail nick. Same pattern and very aggressive. I've had the Arc for a month and its doing well. I do miss my Wave, Curl and Bond in the drawer but also enjoy the Rev as my secondary carry. I'm using the Arc 95% of the time. I opened two cans of cranberry sauce with the Rev over Thanksgiving. Its nice being a bit more prepared than just carrying a dedicated knife around. Cheers to multitools, Mr. Kincaid!

I stuck with the daicamping DL30 cuz it’s way easier to store tweezers with the larger skeletonized holes in the handles. Plus makes it kinda lighter. Idm the handle material tbh it doesn’t make much of a difference from 2-3 cr. It’s the 7cr blade that really makes the difference. Plus the gold/bronze version on the daicamping with the colour options is just as cool as the black and silver imo. Gold/bronze is different. Black and silver are very common tho it’s one of my favourite colour combos as well. But u lose the ability to put tweezers as easily on the bibury. It’s more of a tight space and would scratch against those nice black coloured tools. And tbh not a fan of black tools they just get banged up anyway. Got them on my wave and surge. For me tweezers matter because they’re a portable compass. Need easy access to them
