I like a multi-tool that allows me to fix the copier at work in the mornings, and maybe tactically knife fight punks in the evenings. The pliers are handy for titty twisters and moderate infliction of pain once said punk is down. Occasionally I may clip their toe nails if they are remorseful.

Thanks for informing us about this useful range of tools. My son has long-carried a full-size multi-tool. I learned a lot more when Zach Fowler wisely included a self-modified multi-tool in his challenge to win 'Alone 3.' As a backpacker prior to the multi-tool era, I understood the value of pliers that could also 'wrench' nuts as needed and serve as pot-lifters. For light camping, these tools can save a lot of weight and volume and bring a lot of functionality along.

I have the leatherman wingman which I misplaced for a few months, ordered a Rebar, and like 2 days before the rebar arrived I found the damn wingman, but I dont regret getting the rebar, has lived up the everything I've had to use it for like cutting Cyclone Fence(I was fixing my fence and then my neighbors fence by that time) I probably use it the most when I'm doing yard work, cutting the trimmer line and detangling when it gets jammed up from all the creeper vines that never cease to exist. Its definitely my fav EDC multi-tool. The wingman now resides in a kitchen drawer alongside other "emergency" tools.

In my opinion, the four multi-tools I recommend is one of each categories: keychain-size, pocket-size, full-size, and heavy-duty. The different size categories allow for maximum flexibility and capabilities in use for a wide spectrum of situations, depending on the tool you use. I prefer a multi-tool that embodies a pocket tool chest with the most capabilities, so my four will be the Leatherman Squirt PS4, Juice Xe6, Charge TTi, and Surge.

For past 5-6 years i've carried between the leatherman squirt p4 and the rev. Usually the rev. Looks like the rev is very similar to the sidekick. 5.9oz vs the 7 oz sidekick, but the sidekick has that extra outer saw and the rev has the inner package opener vs the short serrated blade on the sidekick. That's the only thing i wish the rev had is some serrated blade for rope cutting. But I do love the rev's outer non serrated blade and its low weight. I also have a supertool and a surge that I keep in vehicles.

LEATHERMAN REBAR + LEATHERMAN MICRA These 2 multi tools when used together are awesome, they are both good for different tasks and the weight is still kept at a minimal. (SAW - BLADE - SERRATED BLADE - MINI BLADE - FILE - FLATHEADS micro, small, medium, large - 3D PHILLIPS DRIVER - AWL/REAMER - SCISSORS - TWEEZERS - BOTTLE OPENER - CAN OPENER - LANYARD RINGS - PLIERS WITH REPLACEABLE TEETH - RULERS - NAIL FILE AND CLEANER)

Good video as always...have you ever had a look at the the Ganzo G302B? Chinese made multi-tool...screwdriver bit's changeable wire cutters...looks well made, though I don't own one. Only thing people talk badly about it is the exposed spring, but to me...if you lose the spring, the tool still works just as good...just doesn't spring open...which a lot of multi-tools don't have anyway. All the tools lock open...and the bit system works with normal bits without having to buy an adaptor. And the bit kit comes with it for under $45 USD with free shipping from gearbest. Has awl with threading hole, straight blade knife, serrated blade knife, saw, can opener, bottle opener, wire stripper, scissors, small slotted screwdriver, wire cutter, needle nose and regular pliers, lanyard hole, 11 bits and bit adaptor, and a pretty descent semi solid belt pouch that looks better than the gerber and leatherman pouches that come with....and the best part, under $38 USD. check it out here: www.gearbest.com/survival-emergency-gear/pp_67303.html , but if you get one, get it here, as it's about $7.50 cheaper...

The Leatherman Rebar is better than the Wave+. The Rebar is cheaper, lighter, and more robust. The scissors on the Wave+ are basically useless for anything but for thread snipping. Moreover, having to buy and carry bits for the Wave+ only adds to the cost and to the weight. The Wave+ and bit kit costs the same as two Rebars! I'd rather have two Rebars than one Wave+.
@simonh63714 жыл бұрын
Wow snap on 3 of those, I own the Squirt PS4 and Gerber MP600 bladeless and I've just ordered the Rebar. I'm in the UK so can't carry a Rebar or most LMs for that matter as EDC, so PS4 lives in my coin pocket, and the MP600 is my urban EDC bag multitool. Having said that, I don't see any advantage of the Sidekick over the Rebar, it isn't smaller and lighter but has a more limited toolset, it only scores over the Rebar in that the blade and saw are accessible from the outside, and it has a pocketclip. I found a Rebar for just £50 (it's a ''second'' with an overwritten engraving but that's no biggy) which is really good for the UK, and even the Sidekick / Wingman are hard to find for that price nowadays. Like you I'm going to use the Rebar for outdoor activities when I don't really have to worry about the ban on carrying a fixed/locking blade, as that's only ''without good reason'', if you're camping or bushcrafting you have good reason to carry a locking blade and/or fixed blade and anyway I also carry a fixed blade of some kind when I'm doing that. Also that will be my Bug-Out-Bag multitool as it's good for outdoors use. I've got a couple of other mid-sized multitools - SOG Microclip and True Utility Multimate - which are UK legal for EDC but I don't rate them too much as apart from the pliers, which are a bit more substantial than those on a Squirt, the remaining tools have a few shortcomings, some are pretty much useless, however I tend to carry these in conjunction with a Swiss Army knife which covers those gaps in utility. Having said that, if I could opt for a 4th multitool it would be either a Leatherman Juice S2 or CS4, or a Swisstool X or Spirit X. The Juice would be more suited to a legal pocket EDC, but they're really hard to come by nowadays, the best price I can find is from a supplier in France and they still come in at around $90/100 respectively. For that money I can get a Swisstool, but that wouldn't be a practical EDC from the point of view of size and legality. So I still haven't decided. Probably I will end up getting both, I was only planning to get one fixed blade, one folder and one multitool but somehow I couldn't leave it at that, whenever I see a bargain in a clearance sale or on Amazon I convince myself that I'm saving money by buying it lol.

I EDC a Squirt, or a Gerber MP600 if I'm carrying a bag, but always pair them up with a Swiss Army knife.

On some L multitool in particularly the SP-300 when the tool is packed the handels just fall away fro each other by 1/4 of an inch. Do you know why that is?

Interesting video but I have a different perspective concerning the knife on the Rebar. It is awkward to cut food with it and in the woods I always carry a fixed blade knife with me. That's what kept me from adding the Rebar to my Leatherman collection.

What do you think about Killamanjaro multi tools? I picked up the Ballast 2 to check it out. It's a beast

I bought the Wingman and the Micro at Home Depot for $20.00 on sale! Good buy...
