Commented before the end of the vid. The spring failed on my bit extender so I superglued a rare earth magnet in there making it essentially the same as this new one with regards to standard 1/4 bits. I do like that this new one is thinner walled though. The best extra bit you can carry imo is a long shank 1/4 bit in no2 Philips but with a narrow shaft on it rather than it be 1/4 hex the whole way. Really helps you get into plastic casings where the recessed screw holes are are a tight fit with screw head

TX Tool Crib i got some precut adhesive tape for disc magnets, (i think magnets4sale?) for a jig to clean off metal particles on tools and fasteners. I ended up using some small magnets in the bit holder for my Victorinox Ratchet (great little edc.) it also would work for the Leatherman.
@Streamtronics4 жыл бұрын
I had the same idea, but doesn't the magnet add to much at the bottom, making the double sided leatherman bits almost fall out (or at least stick out so that the area where torque is applied to the bit is quite small)?
@GabeMacDonnell4 жыл бұрын
Streamtronics i should have explained better. I actually forget what diameter the magnets were, (probably 4 or 5mm.) there's a recess below the shelf where the bit is seated. The magnet is attached to the SIDE of the tool, perpendicular to the bottom of the bit, not the bottom. It's just close enough to hold a fastener, but doesn't get pulled out with the bit. I tried stacking smaller magnets in that recess- way too strong. It's be more work, and i don't know it'd be any better, but you could use epoxy putty to seat a single magnet parallel to the big's bottom. I haven't done this to my leatherman bit holder yet. But i magnetized the bits i use most often, and that works quite well.

Another good review of good multi tool. I have both Leatherman and Gerber multi tools plus a few other brand’s. I am now getting back into collecting Leatherman’s (my wife says I have problems with multi tools) so this is in way a bashing or talking bad about Leatherman I carried one in Iraq along with MP600. But I would tell them let the military supply them with the multi tool, strap cutter and cleaning kit for for free. Have them buy one they can afford get it engraved with their name, rank and wherever they deployed. Give it to them as gift when they get home so they know how much they mean to them. The MP600 if you break it or loose it on deployment the supply NCO will give them one for free.

I think this would bankrupt them. If every person were able to customize there own tool that would entail making a platform or platforms with part interchangeability and restructuring their plant operations to do jobs piecemeal. They leverage economies of scale to keep costs down and competitive. In addition by you being able to purchase your own DIY MT it would take away from current models sales. Every new thing LM does competes with other MTs not only in the market but their own MTs. If they wanted to be a DIY MT platform it would probably come out of the LM garage and require a substantive engineering effort to do. I would think the price would range somewhere in the vicinity of 250-500

One of my favorite tools. Just wish the sheath held onto the extender a bit better. Unless I need it, I typically leave the extender at home in a drawer. I also do like the new extender, as it improves on design issues from the old one. I do wish we could get some MOLLE sheaths that had button closures, but I know why Velcro was chosen; even when dirty, or dusty, you’ll still be likely to close and secure your tool. As for the toolset, it is what a lot of people have been wanting in the SuperTool 300 chassis for awhile. I don’t see why a lot of screwdrivers are needed on the tool, when you have the bit exchanger.

Good review Ben as always. I purchased this one about a year ago. I have a pretty good collection of Leatherman and Gerber multitools but for me I still think the Surge has the best all around tool set and I've tried many 😊 but I thought the innovative design on this one was really cool. I already had the Gerber Centerdrive and liked the design of the prybar on this one in comparison to the Gerber but I agree. The large flat head and putting another implement like the saw perhaps would be better. I'm an aircraft mechanic by trade and I'm always using the large flat head on my Surge for popping open spring latches, as a mini prybar, scraper, you name it. I like this multitool a lot and will keep it as a backup/range tool but until someone comes out with something better Surge is still king for me 😂 thanks Ben

That sight tool/ driver bit holder is really an awesome upgrade.

Thanks for this review. Been using a modified Super Tool 300 EOD for years and it's pretty beat up after years of use and abuse. Maybe I'll get a 300 M and do a mashup of 300 EOD and 300 M components on basis of the 300 M to finally replace my modified 300 EOD as my EDC multi-tool. I'd get rid off the lanyard-ring and the file to replace it with the t-shank adapter from the 300 EOD. So I'd have the option to carry woodsaw, metal-saw and file as t-shank blades with me. I always hated the unnecessary tools on the Leathermans. Who needs all that flathead screwdrivers if you have Bit-adapters? By the way flathead has become uncommon, in reality I mostly have to deal with Philipps, Hex and Torx. Regarding Bit-adapters I may be a bit old fashioned, as the tool might be used for work on electronics. Therefore I do not want Bit-holders with magnets. Maybe I'd replace the adapter for the Leatherman-Bits with the old Philipps-screwdriver from the Super Tool 300 (EOD) to use the old Bit-Adapter. [Annotation: I sometimes work on machines like reel to reel tape machines, casette-decks and old computers, that's why I do not want anything magnetic getting in touch with those machines]. This is a personal issue. I like the idea of having a pry bar and a carbon scraper. The carbon scraper is a replacement for the awl with a hole, respectively looks if it can be used for that particular task. Cool. Marginal note: No one-hand-operated blades means 'carry-legal' in my country. :-)

I saw pictures of this tool many months back now, and most people thought it was a fake. I emailed LM about it, and they said it was a special run they did a while back for a certain company that I can't remember the name of. That pretty much put it to bed for me. Then BAM! Through it out there as another offering for everyone! Perhaps once they got enough interest in the tool..they released it? So, I hope folks will now start emailing Leatherman about releasing their 2 most popular tools (Wave+ & Surge)..in their most popular color scheme (Coyote/Black Oxide). Also, email them about making this new Extender/Adapter a separate accessory for purchase, like he said! I've narrowed my Leathermans down to the Surge & Wave+, and only bought 1 bit Extender, so I would love to keep the old one with the Surge, in my pack, and this new one in my EDC..with my Wave+.

I was made aware of this one back in September 2019. I promised to keep it to myself. It's been tough not to mention this model because I knew it was coming, but Leatherman wouldn't confirm it. I was really surprised that it didn't get released at SHOT Show 2020.
