Best Value Leatherman Multi Tools
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 янв 2021
- While Leatherman has an extensive lineup of multi tools, the two I consider to be the best value are the Rebar and SuperTool 300. Price is just one area to consider when deciding on either of these multi tools. There is a lot to be said for compactness, weight, and features as well. Let's dive into these two multi tools.
Once again Ben, excellent review. I can watch your reviews for hours & not get bored.
Love these kind of comparison vids you do! Really interesting to hear the pros and cons. Keep up the great work! 😊👍🏻
Agreed. Helped me pick a few things now.
Glad you like them!
Great video, I carry and use my Rebar most days at work and absolutely love it.
I have been considering an upgrade to the ST300 as my daily work tool, the heavier duty pliers would definitely come in handy.
You must have one awesome collectios of Mult Tools man. Thanks for info brudda keep on making vids I keep on watching em. I enjoyed your video on knots as well. I'm a former parachute rigger and I'm embarrassed to say I'd forgot many of the knots. You helped refresh my memory. Thanks man
You’re quite welcome, I really appreciate you taking the time to watch my videos, really means a lot.
My two favorites. Beautiful-looking. Packed with function. One is a little more portable in the pocket and one can do a little more hefty work 💯
i chose rebar over wave mainly because of weight. it's more lightweight due to the simple design (even though i added scissors and a needle holder), and has stronger pliers (at least there was a difference when i bought mine). i had to reshape the awl to make any use of it but now it's 100% functional.
Absolutely excellent comparison and pointed out the differences with illustrations and explanations. I was considering a wave but I like the tool set better on the rebar. Thanks again!
Talk about serendipity. I got a second Rebar today. I also got a ST300 a few weeks ago, because I liked my Rebar so much. Excellent tools, and their price is still good.
I agree. Still, I decided to buy a Rebar since my priority tool is the pliers and I seldom use the multitool knife.
Rebar is my favourite; i use it as a portable tool box, not much in EDC. I've got one and gave another to my father. Decent prices with a classic look, serious capabilities and good sizes.
Rebar is a great tool
I lived for 30 years in Alaska. Everybody carries a Leatherman of some sort and a Buck 110 or 112. I did everyday. I no longer live in Alaska but still EDC the same Supertool and Buck 112 as well as a Leatherman Micra. Gotta' love those scissors. Mahalo!
I have the Leatherman Super Tool that I got in the very early 1990’s, the Wave and the Surge. My two favorites are the Surge and the Super Tool as I have large hands and they fit better, but I love all three of them and they work great. I also had a Micro Tool which I received as a gift that was removed from my briefcase not long after 9/11 as I had forgotten that one of my students had placed it in there the night before I caught my flight.
Thanks for this comparison, those are two of the tools I was looking at. Not-so-fun-fact: In Germany, knives that can be opened with one hand AND have a locking mechanism are considered weapons and illegal to carry. Two-handed opening ones are tools (unless the policeman has slept badly or trouble with his wife....) Seeing both tools side by side, I think the Rebar is a better fit for my small hands. And my pockets - btw, not missing the clip, I'll make use of the lanyard ring and put it on a leash.
What a dumb law
Actually it's a bit different, I was reading the blog about the knives and they asked the police what's up with this law and having multitool with 1h blade if this will also be considered as weapon. And they answered that thing is not about having it as if you have a reason to have it cause you will use it and can prove it there is no problem for example you go camping etc. but thing is about how you transport tool like this. If it will be for example in closed bag with zipper it's ok, it has to be transport in closed container so that you cannot grab it fast like for example from pocket or belt sheath. You can also transport it in a closed toolbox. But if you would have it in the car door for example you are busted. So you can have it but cannot have it somewhere easy to access. So out it in a sheath then out it in a bag or backpack with zipper and you are ok.
Had my rebar for 2 yrs. now and I love it...
I was a dedicated Charge man (over 10 years) until I saw your vid on the Swisstool Spirit. Now I’m a dedicated Swisstool man. That said, if I went back to Leatherman I’d pick one of these two. I’ve come to appreciate the long reach of a dedicated Philips #2 over the utility of a bit exchanger. I chiefly work in facilities maintenance and mainly on pools, spray parks, water features. I carry some other tools in my man purse that handle the jobs I used to use my Charge for.
New to your channel. I appreciate your objectivity and informative sensible approach to evaluating tools! Subbed.
Thank you for the compliments. Thank you for the sub too.
Thanks for the vid! I want to get my father a Leatherman Super tool since his Coleman multi tool broke. Thanks for helping me pull the trigger on the super tool.
It’s hard to go wrong with the super tool 300. No I personally prefer the outside accessible knife blades of the surge, the 300 is an absolute tank.
I believe he will be happy with it
The saw , file and the awl on the rebar are badass.
I EDC a Surge. My wife EDC's a Wave+. I dislike the way the knives sit when they are open on the ST300 and the Rebar. Keep up the great vids!!!
Two of my favorite multi tools. I carry a super tool at work everyday. Great video 👍
Thanks
Agreed 110% Ben 👍👍 why are you not at 100,000 subscribers yet !! Love all your videos
Thank you. I might get there someday, just takes time. I appreciate you taking the time to watch.
I carry the 300 over the surge bc the handles are closer together, I even file just a little off the pliers where the handle meets the pliers. When close I like the distance center to center to be around 1 3/8
This is the exact video I needed. Just order the Super Tool 300!
Really great and helpful review. Thank you.
There's Rebar fans and then there's everybody else...lol. Great review. You are right about the pocket clip. Adding a pocket clip would increase the demand for the Rebar. One the plus side, the Rebar does fit ok in the 5th jean pocket. Another option is connecting a suspension clip to an a small niteize s-biner then connecting the s-biner to the lanyard. I do have plans to upgrade the cutters on the Rebar with the eod cutters based off your previous video. Thanks again 👍.
You’re very welcome, thanks for taking the time to watch.
I’m saving up some money from Manuel labor and I’m getting this! Hopefully that is, and I am so friggin exited!
Hello from England - great vid as always
Hello England
Hey, thanks!
The Rebar is my favourite Leatherman - I have three of them because I got a couple reduced to clear. It's almost a perfect size, weight and tool selection for me. The only thing I hardly ever use is the serrated blade. If you were making this video now, I guess you'd be including the Bond as well - most of the functionality of the Rebar for a lower price.
One consideration in the Wave/Rebar comparison that you don't discuss is that the Rebar's knife blades have the cutting edge turned inwards towards the centre axis of the tool, and the Wave's has the cutting edge turned outwards. There are pros and cons to both options. Outward opening makes one-hand deployment easier, and flush cutting onto to a flat surface. But inward opening makes it pretty much impossible to close the blade on your fingers, if you have the plier handles closed.
Is the Bond the lightest full size tool I can put a pocket clip on?
Do they sell it that way?
Or should I look for an old Sideclip?
@@michaelkulman7095 the Bond can accept a pocket clip, though it doesn't come with one from the factory. The Sideclip lacks the file and awl of the Bond, but if you're not going to use either, the thinner profile and lighter weight may be worth it. The Sideclip has a shorter knife too if that matters.
@@stevefaiello3321 Thanks.
Weight, size, and thickness have to be pretty low for me to pocket carry something so I look at things through that lens. Thanks for the information.
@@michaelkulman7095 I'd say go for the Sideclip. I don't own one, but I do have a PST and a Bond and the PST is noticeably thinner due to its completely flat sides. The Sideclip is even thinner, so it's probably your best bet. I've contemplated picking one up, but my Skeletool does the job when I want to forget I have something in my pocket.
@@stevefaiello3321 Thanks.
I may do that. The PST still stands out in some ways. The PST was pretty efficient in terms of number of tools to weight and size, form factor and Sideclip maybe more so and comes with the clip of course.
I'm not obsessed with locking tools, with the original design you get some safety by squeezing the handles together as opposed to a jackknife. The Skeletool is too stripped down for me. Some of the Juice models are pretty pocketable
but I still think the PST and Sideclip filled a niche, hit a sweet spot in form factor, weight, size and tool load out. I've learned over the years I won't usually bother to thread a sheath on my belt unless I have some special reason so pocket clips or pocketability is the main thing. The bigger and bigger and more expensive models don't really appeal to me. I wish Leatherman had some inexpensive legacy models.
Every time I watch a review of yours I think that was the best one.
I guess I've been wrong, because this is the best comparison.
Guess what, I'm still wrong, because I've came to a conclusion that your next review/comparison video is going to be the best
Thanks for the great stuff!
Well thank you sir, that is very much appreciated. I have some thoughts on military themed tools that is going up in a little while.
@@txtoolcribI'm sorry for the late response, I just ran out of my data quota and couldn't use RUclips for a while.
Certainly, I'm going to see everything that you've posted :)
I must admit i do love the rebar for medium sized multitool! I got mine for a warranty replacement for a PST i sent in a few years back and its got the classic look to it? The bit extender i find jams on the screwdriver end so im not in favour of it! I use the Leatherman original bit extender that came with first generation wave. That one sandwiches between the pliers and fits in perfect. That also gives proper 1/4 drive too?
I do have supertool 300 that was also a warranty replacement for a core i believe? Love it too! Like you and i guess most of the viewer's one Leatherman leads to many more?
I dont buy Leatherman tools anymore though as i believe the models now are crap in design! Im thinking about the free as i write this!
A huge reason I carry a Supertool over a Surge is that I do a lot of trench work (watermain construction) and use my multitool very often for things down in the water and mud. I carried a Wave for a while and I'll tell you the amount of sand and grit you can stuff in all those tight tolerances around the outside tools is incredible.. and the sound that thing makes when you open your knife blade past all that grit is cringe-worthy (the sound of small metal parts being sanded into a habdful of scrap!).
The closed-handle architecture of the Supertool/Rebar/Bond is a huge selling point for me because it handles the dirt work a lot better, and it's much easier to rinse out.
That being said, you don't need a very diverse tool set for water utility work either, at least in a multitool. Pliers and wire cutters for manipulating/stripping utility tracer wire, a file, and a fat screwdriver are basically it for me. So the simplicity of these toolsets are also very appealing in the sense that I don't really miss what I don't really need.
That's a really good point. There's nothing more annoying than a sticky or gritty blade on my Wave or Surge. I've been considering a Rebar but haven't pulled the trigger on it - maybe I will now for the reasons you laid out
Hi Ben, I have the Rebar, what I like on it is the simplicity of construction, the good size and the ease of clean, that I consider an important factor. The choice of tools is quite good. But I have to agree with you about the comfort of the handles, it is an issue when pliers are used without gloves.
I think it is possible to add a micro screw driver on the lanyard hole.
Thank you for you review.
You’re welcome, thank you for watching.
Agreed! Rebar is such a good bargain. Great plier head and tool set. Thx for the great vids.
You bet
For myself, if I had to choose between the two I would go with the Supertool 300. Mainly for the larger saw, file and serrated blade. I am a surge user so size obviously isn’t a factor for me.
Good point on the Robertson bits. Pretty standard screw for us Canadians with Phillips being neck in neck for popularity. One thing I have noticed with Leatherman is their love of the slotted driver. There are nine between my Surge and the two bit kits lol.
I love my rebar, but I think for the size I’ll just take my freeP2..I wish that s30V was standard steel for their knives though! Great review! Salute to you from Corpus Christi Texas
Thank you sir. I appreciate you tuning in to watch.
Very good explanation, in your opinion victorinox workchamp and Leatherman rebar which one is better .
Need your advice because planing to buy one of those two
If you get an aftermarket sheath with a belt clip (such as the RAE gear ones) you can also clip it inside your pocket. That's how I've been carrying my rebar the last few weeks, on my left side with the lanyard loop to grab onto. It is really wide for a pocket clip but it hasn't inconvenienced me at all, in many cases it's preferable to having it on my belt, and both scenarios are way better than having it loose in my pocket.
They have quite a few holsters for different model. I’m just a big fan of leather myself.
I pocket carry my rebar. No problems with that. Even though my jeans pockets are smaller then men's jeans.
I'm proud owner of Leatherman Rebar and my next buy is SuperTool 300. Turns out that i use multitool for more heavy duty stuff
Both my favorite ❤️
''I don't have my tape measure'' lol that was pretty funny.
I used to carry the Rebar in my EDC pocket organizer. Great compact tool. But i never enjoyed using the pliers. The edges really dig into your hand over time.
I replaced it with the Victorinox Swiss Tool Spirit X. Minimal bigger footprint and much more comfortable. Well worth the extra money. I kind of miss the two blades of the rebar, since i got the Spirit X with the serrated edge.
Great content as always!
Thank you. Good choice on the Spirit X by the way. Your observation is one of the biggest reasons I like the Surge over the SuperTool 300 as well. The rounded edges on the plier handles of the Leatherman Surge are incredibly comfortable.
If I don't need locking tools is the Bond the lightest full size tool I can put a pocket clip on?
Do they sell it that way?
Or should I look for an old Sideclip?
Pinched my hands so many and raised blood blisters with the wave with the location of blades in pliers function. I was actually happy when I misplaced it.
Didn't bother look for it to hard. Bought a supertool 300 am very happy with it and haven't pinched my hands! In my opinion the wave and other multitools that leave that pinch point in pliers function are unsafe!
You're not going to die from that though
Your video made me curious so I had to go pull it out, I still have my Supertool 200 (not 300) and... I was right, it actually does a lanyard hole, which is actually still useful on a tool like this.
Surprised the 300 doesn't have one.
I've always like the Super Tools though, something very straightforward and no nonsense about them, them or the Swisstool would be my choice for a Zombie Survival Kit or if I had to live in the rough for a month.
I admit I haven't looked at the Rebar very much but maybe I should, that reminds me of my old Blast in all right ways. Still carry my Blast, love that thing.
It does have one. It was still tucked in there, but I assure you it does.
I'd like to see a surge/wave type main blade on the Rebar and ST 300.
Wow grateful tools I like it
I agree, just one stipulation, the bladeless rebar over the normal version imo
I agree, because pairing with a dedicated folder (so free up the multitool for more implements), and you can also omit the folder when going to a knifeless setting. I have been daydreaming about making myself a knifeless/bladeless ST300 by replacing the 2 blades with t-shank holders from the ST300-EOD. The only thing holding me back is the money to obtain 1 regular ST300 plus 2 EODs or the shank holders therefrom (none of these things is cheap).
This would allow diamond file from Surge to go in ST300, plus also any Bosch hacksaw or abrasive saw of one's choosing.
I used the st300 because it was a gift from my folks. It’s a beast of a tool. Overkill for everyday and got the rebar because it’s just more everyday carry. Too heavy on my hip. Great for the shop but just not everyday carry at all. St300 for the shop, garage, truck or tool box but rebar for more comfortable edc.
I definitely prefer the dedicated PH2 vs the bit driver. The bit driver is awesome and I’d like a tool with both options. Eliminate all the flat drivers for a bit holder that can replace them all
I carry a separate knife, and don't particularly care about one handed operation if I need to pull out a multitool; that and the slightly lighter weight are why I went with the Rebar over the Wave.
I think probably a lot of others have a similar mindset.
Yeah same here
I have a pretty decent collection of leathermans going.
Free P2 and T2, Wave+, ST300, Rebar, and Bond. I EDC my Free P2 and Bond in a rotation. The ST300 and Wave+ live in my work toolbox. The rebar and T2 are in my car.
I'm thinking of carrying a Victorinox Ranger and a dedicated pliers instead of Rebar. I think it's better as my work carry
Very thourough, Thank You
Hi Ben,
I carry a surge or a charge depending what I an going to do that day. I love these tools.
I noticed that sometimes the spring of the surge scissors jumps of the handle when I try to cut something where I put a little bit of pressure to the left.
Did you noticed that?
What's your opinion on that issue.
Love your videos
I have never had that happen to me on the Surge scissors. You might want to see about sending it in for warranty repair if it is a consistent problem.
@@txtoolcrib I thougt it was something with the design since the scissors are quite long. and the spring is basicly not connected.
I wil check it on another Surge I gave tot my son. And than consider the warranty procedure.
I checked it and there also is a serve centre in The Netherlands.
Maybe I should send you a little video, but how.
Greetz
JP
You can email me. txtoolcrib@gmail.com
@@txtoolcrib Thanks Ben, I will make a little video to show you exactly in a couple of days.
SO UNDERRATED
The best use I have found for the rebar is to migrate the Pliers, Philips and Awl to my wave and charge for the very reasons you have already mentioned. Thereby ensuring I have the best tools I need on my wave.
Did you have any clearance issues with the plier heads in the Wave?
@@txtoolcrib In some cases you will find clearance issues. It also depends on what other tools are installed. For example to install the rebar Phillips I had to remove the internal tab to make it all fit with the rebar pliers. The best option I find is to mod or manipulate the internal tools and never grind the pliers.
Where do you get the tool to disassemble the rebar?
@@joshstarkey8883 A store called loki-mobile on ebay has them from time to time. Ships from Russia.
@@BillDrives Thanks, I don't see it there now but lots of interesting parts for sure
My big issue with multitool is the driver. I need good plyers, cutters, straight edge knife that can be accessed from closed position, and a damn driver that takes regular 1/4" bits with a bit of length. If Leatherman would make a model with 1/4" exchangeable bit driver, magnetized for standard bits and stick it in any model with the easy access blade I would buy it for whatever they wanted. As it is I carry a Kershaw select fire and an old model 100 super tool mainly for the plyers and cutters. I was interested in the center drive but kinda hate otf plyers and don't love Gerber. I have been thinking of a skeletool cx with but extension and then either gluing a bitty magnet into the extension or buying some wiha bits, they apparently work with the locking system on the Leatherman extention. But man, 30$ for the extention is steep.
I've been searching for a Leatherman for my new job... I've been watching this video but it's not talking me out of buying a Leather Curl. Having a file instead of a saw is a good thing for me. What else am I missing?
.....buying for restaurant work: Cutting cardboard, improvised/unexpected fixes, all around multi tool.
I recently found the leatherman core which is exactly like the supertool300 only paid $ 40 at the pawn shop
I have one of them too I can't find any major difference between the 2 mostly because I can't find any information on the core online
I've become so spoiled by my Wave, Surge, Buck 112 Slim, and Victorinox Ranger Grips that I can't imagine not having a one-handed knife on me. I don't mind having interior tools, because I also carry one of my SAK's at all times.
I considering rebar as my 1st heavy duty leatherman. I've a micra as my 1st leatherman.
Both of those are great tools in the their own right.
I absolutely love both the rebar and the ST300. I'd rather have a Surge for hard use because I'm use to the wave/charge as it is my EDC, but the ST300 is a solid MT. The rebar is great as a light EDC/camping MT and is occasionally in my rotation. But I agree 100% best bang for the buck.
Carry my Rebar in a Clip&carry kydex belt sheath. It's great.
Rebar for on the go. Surge (or the up and coming Arc) for home.
On pinch points, weight, hammer ability, cleanability, not bit/blade exchange reliant both are better long term than all the competition to date.
Is there a tool that competes with the skeletool? Plier based, one hand knife, pocket clip and lite weight
Actually, not really. The Skeletool series is kind of out there on its own as a minimalist carry.
I have 2 ST300 and the place its my personal and work truck. They don't move from there because sometimes Im in a hurry and go in shorts and I know I have a very good tool with all necessary without accessories and reliable. MANY times I had use the ST300
Rebar its my go when formal occasions come like weeddings, formal meetings, etc..... In conjunction with a Pioneer X.
In my EDC can't do Rebar or ST300 since for me Surge and Swisstool are better. This is my taste. Not saying its everyones scenarios.
Love both I got in $50dlls each St300 and the rebar for $35.... Just cheap and excellent quality tools
It’s really amazing how much the prices jumped on these things in the last six or seven years.
@@txtoolcrib agree 100%
Hey there, I am trying to get a new multi tool. I already have the wave, so I would like to get the super tool. Is that a good choice?
It is, but you may consider the Surge over the SuperTool 300 as it offers the same styling as your Wave. Big factors for me are the one hand outside accessible blades, scissors, and smooth plier handles. It is more expensive, but I feel it is worth the extra money.
Alright I will take that into consideration, thanks!
I guarantee you're going to miss the one-handed blades and the other outside tools.
Hey man, i have a Charge TTI, and would like to change it into a jigsaw sawblade holder so i can saw through metal. Any ideas how to do it most efficiently?
That is a mod I haven’t tried yet, so I’m not sure if they pin sizes are all the same. You might check on the forums like multitool.org to get some input.
@@txtoolcrib Thanks for the info!
Buy a Surge!!!
BTW, Ben, no to the pocket clip ,u have a belt pouch for carry
I was thinking more for other people, not myself. I try to put myself in the mindset of others and not necessarily what I personally like all the time.
Good evening Ben . I hope that you are fine . This is an off-topic comment . A couple of days ago I was asking you about a dual pen/pencil . I have found one but sadly (or at least where I am ) it is out of stock .The lamy cp1 twin pen version . If you can buy one , I hope that you will like it . God bless you
That actually looks quite nice. How does it work for dual functionality? I assume you either have to have the ink refill or the lead refill in at one time. So that you can use this for either a pen or a pencil, is that correct?
@@txtoolcrib Look Ben , I don't fully understand what you mean but if you mean that at a moment the pen is ,say, a mechanical pencil then you change its "internals" to make it an ink pen , the answer is NO . Although there are some pens like this but it isn't the case here , and this is what I like about this pen . Using a simple gear mechanism and by rotating the pen to your desired choice , the writing device becomes a pencil or a pen . Note that this design is used by many multicolor pencils .
ruclips.net/video/gDeMB0hhZAc/видео.html
this one of the better vids I could find , there aren't that many sadly
Well that is pretty awesome then. I think I might have to buy that one
@@txtoolcrib Glad you liked it , I hope that it would become part of your EDC .
Do you know any probable reason that they don’t include scissors in both these multi-tools? Don’t people use scissors more often then other tools?
who needs scissors when you have a knife
I think the pliers suck because the only reason why they're detachable is because the very first ones that Leatherman made were indestructible on there was nothing wrong with them at all so you're guaranteed to buy replacement carbide cutters on every one of these as to where the first one they're perfect
I'll never understand the use case for not having one handed knife opening. I love my Wave.
Legality I'd imagine, also having the tools on the inside keeps lint and coins etc in your pocket from getting wedged in. I do prefer one handed opening but the trade off is there
@@joshstarkey8883 I'd be amazed to hear of any country where one handed opening is a legal issue. It's not a spring loaded switchblade and the Wave is sold worldwide !
@@edwardfletcher7790 : I think Josh was saying trade off is pocket hinderance? Although, UK has laws against “locking blades,” not one handed operation. Leatherman Multitools, with locking blades, fall into that category. You can be stopped for carrying and you may find yourself before a judge/barrister. I am not an attorney, but the above is my understanding of legal issues in the UK.
@@greenbanana2332 Ummm the whole "locking blades are dangerous" thing really pissess me off !
When was the last time there was a knife attack or robbery with a multi tool or even a locking blade?
Most knife attacks are done with Pound Shop Chef knives !
What's next Ban Pound Shops ?
@@greenbanana2332 That's the only reason I can think of for owning either of these.
Great video, on the rebar, how do you keep the blades, internal tools and sides of the pliers head from rusting?
I EDCed the ST300 for a long time. It’s three ounces more and considerably bulkier that the Rebar. I love the Rebar. I wish it didn’t have a hole in the file blade. Really could have done that differently.
Like you, I went to the Surge. But if I had to choose, I’d go back the the ST300. I keep it on a pack now. I like the integrated tools design better for outdoors.
i feel dumb because when I went to US back in 2018 I didn't buy a leatherman for that price. In Italy every leatherman costs 50euros more than in the US
The sad thing about this video is the fact that both 300 and Rebar are not only the best bang for the buck but pretty much the ONLY Leathermans left that have a good value. Where I live the two of them are the only "real" MT by Leatherman for under 100€. The Wave used to as well but it did climb from 90€ a couple of years ago when I bought mine to over 140€.
You’re right, prices just keep creeping higher and higher.
Victorinox metal saw is better than leatherman metal saw, can you please make a metal saw comparation? I would like to know wich one is better
Well, I would say that is accurate. Especially when you consider the file on Leatherman tools is not a metal saw. The only metal saws on Leatherman products are in the SuperTool 300 EOD.
@@txtoolcrib its true but, I just cut a screw with the edge of the wave file. I suppose that can be used for that too 🙂
I'm still waiting for Leatherman to do a broadbill pliers, Gerber did it , come on Leatherman step up
I’m surprised they never made one honestly.
@@txtoolcrib me also as a answer to Gerber tool with what I talk of
It would be better for us to see when you open and close the tools.
Love my Rebar. Hate my Wave.

I used to carry the more budget class Leatherman in my teens and early 20's but with how long these things last, it just made sense to me to just spend more and get what I wanted. At that time scale, cost isn't as important to me.
I am of the same opinion.
@@txtoolcrib My best value leatherman was the skeletool. Got it for $30, and I think some people got it for $20.
if only the 300 had scissors
No scissors. D'OH!!!!
Only on the Knifeless Rebar
You should check out r/leatherman on Reddit.
Very reliable, also sadly the ugliest pliers LM has. I'd get a discontinued Core or 2nd-hand gen1 Surge anyday over those monstrosities.
True , i use a knifeless rebar (UK) at work , great tool but not the prettiest :)
Well I can say they aren't the most sleek or modern. But they have that classic style. Built like a tank. O.G. Handcrafted in America type. I guess they keep then that way too pay homage to their original best tools
It's stupid to talk about the price. Price is NOT a quality of the tool. You don't use the price to cut wires or so.
It is a major consideration for people that are trying to decide the best fit for them though.
Smaller lighter to expensive.
Less is less.
No for me.
30 dollar " alot" Loool
To some people it is. To me it’s not that much of a difference considering the ease of use between the two.
@@txtoolcrib Surge is 20 times more flexible with it´s bits kit´. extender etc and 30 dollar is only about 20-30% difference and that is not much when talking bout that amount of money...
I am fully aware.
US Army I. Carry two. 300s. Way. Better than. Any. Gerber. Chinas best friend. Hooah 😅😅😅😅😅
overpriced
Talk too much!
Go get a nice multitool from Ali express for $40, Leathermans are rusty trash.
Well that’s not true at all. Why so much negativity towards Leatherman?
My comments keep getting deleted, RUclips is a mess.
Leatherman is the best !!!! Don't buy from commies !!!!
