You may already know but SKINTH SOLUTIONS. They make all kinds of pouches. Anything you want all sizes. Edit: those camera bags fall apart I've tried them. Now don't get me wrong I've not bought any skinth pouches but it's all Ive found that is a good custom option that hand made for gear by a guy who couldn't find what he wanted so he made it his self.

You may already be aware of this, but there are these cool sockets I bought off Amazon callled "Gator Grip". There are two different sized versions, both USA made. They work in a pinch and I carry mine with me everywhere alongside my SOG multitool (has a standard bit holder center mounted, which is nice). Just to warn you, they are are awesome, but they aren't a replacement for my SK set, nor the Wright set I inherited from my grandfather. I also don't much care if I lose one of my Gator Grips.

good kit. I suggest maybe a small many 16's crescent that opens to 3/4" and a Japanese crescent wrench. I often carry those two and have some other tools and I fix multi-million dollar machines sometimes with just what's in my pockets. I have been looking for a new multi tool. and based upon this review I will now carry the surge in my EDC fix most shit kit. . *thank you*.

OMG. This is exactly the type of tool set that I want for EDC. I can pull out the Surge for actual carry but have the kit for bike rides, hiking, backpacking, etc. More importantly, I can get a bicycle multi-tool separately and bike repair kit to put in my rack for longer rides on my trike. Amazing. I will start gathering the items now. The primary reason for the Surge is the replaceable saw blades. You can find sets with different teeth per inch for differing projects or results. Adding in the fire starter was genius. I might even find that replacement whistle from the outdoor version to pop in there in case I ride over a cliff.

I just ordered most of what was on your list. I needed a small kit that could do 80-90% of jobs I do at work, and fit in a go bag. Thanks. Edit: I just received my Surge and I am absolutely in Awe of how sharp the blade came. I don’t think I’ve ever received a knife that would shave hair out of the box. The fit and finish of the tool is pristine. For 3/4 of the transformation it is smooth, last quarter is where everything tightens into place. There is absolutely no wiggle or flex. It is a straight up beast of a tool. It fit perfectly into a leather pancake holster I bought for a Gerber Suspension. I barely notice the extra weight between Suspension and Surge when it’s on my Kore Gun belt. Although I wanted the Black and stainless version, I have to say the all stainless is a beauty. It really is nice tool of marvel and ingenuity. My only regret is not buying it years sooner. But I suspect this will last me into my old age.

excellent video Todd! I am a long time surge fan, it's got me through many a job. One technique I use is opening the tool halfway into an L-shape when using the screwdriver. It can give some good leverage. The only thing that finally broke it was opening coconuts in the Philippines! First the knife to cut off the husk, then I would use the awl to punch a hole and then the saw to cut a window to drink the coconut water inside. Even then it didn't break fully just got loose and they still replaced it for free.

I think you’ve got it a little bit twisted, sir. Leatherman does not make professional tools. They are intended to be more of a last resort in emergency situations.

Seeing a fellow electrician or any other tradesman use one of these on a job would be absolutely cringe-worthy.

I thoroughly enjoyed your in depth review on how much the Surge is capable of doing with a few extra add on's, such as saw blades and sockets. Plus the camera bag as a handy tool bag.

I keep a little flashlight and a Fisher space pen in the two side pockets. With a pen, all the tools on the surge, and a flashlight it's like the ultimate EDC tool for most uses. :) Leatherman makes some great stuff. With how many times I've been super glad to have it with me it was totally worth the $95 it cost. And I have a Micra on my ketchain, which comes in handy super often if I don't have the Surge with me.

I enjoyed this very much. I am not alone in this world. I am similarly obsessive in this regard. It all started for me with the Choinard (Patagonia) expedition sewing kit (maybe 1980). I had several over the years, and then started making them myself. The little kit became a substantially larger one that covers a wider range of field repairs, but it is modular so that it can be separated and used based on the specific activity. I also put together a miniature tool kit specific to my bicycle with the help of the Snap-on tool guy and Park Tools that I have been using for 20 years. Thanks for the great content, but now I am thinking of how to improve my kit(s) based on what you posted - here we go again...

I use my daily in a steel mill and it's so handy. I have an older model that doesn't have the replaceable wire cutters but I've cut 1/8 inch 7018 welding rods with it no problem!

Been there got the t-shirt. My solution was two pouches. The standard pouch for the surge and a second leatherman pouch (small) for the accessories and extender. I have a small flashlight too (v. usefull!). As I have more than one leatherman this split works really well. Ok, it does take up space on the belt but then you don't need both all the time. I don't have sockets. It seems to me that if sockets are required then you're going beyond a multitool and looking at a larger tool kit.

I did the same thing. But I found a nice case with Mollie straps and I added a first aid kit and I put my blades in a plastic tube with a little oil.

I absolutely love your tool kit. Great video . I really like that Surge too. Your presentation convinced me to order it today.

Yeah, Leatherman are more expensive but they are incredibly well-made (in the USA) and have an amazing warranty

Nice set. I use the same ratchet in my set. I put my sockets on a cable key ring.

I don't know if I actually need all of this... but I need all of this.
