- My first experience with the EOD models has been very positive. The cutters on these EOD models are exceptional, and the 300 offers tools that are not available on other models.

I have had this knife since 2012 engraved with my name. Only multi I’ve ever owned, never let me down leatherman makes a awesome product.
I just bought one of these tonight. Thank you for the fine video.
bought this in a promotion without looking too closely on what differs the EOD version, but after your presentation - I am happy I did. Thanks for the nice review.
Thanks for the review, I’m an electrician and think this is a great tool set. Will pot one on my wish list
My favourite Multitool. Used mine a lot in my last job, almost daily. I did some modifications on my SuperTool 300 EOD, simply to make it more practical for the environment I used to work in (animal shelter). I've decided to get the EOD version due to the C4-punch, which I used as a Marlin spike and that was one of the most used tools, due to tangled and messed up dog leads.
I replaced the pliers with regular SuperTool 300 pliers, as I needed that 'grippy part in the middle' instead of the detonator-crimper. We often had to repair fences and mess with wire, therefore the regular pliers appeared more practical for that purpose.
Besides I replaced the combi-blade with a full drop point blade and the saw with a fully serrated blade. Partly serrated blades are ok, as long as the blade is long enough. [I own a Glauca B1 and the partly serrated blade on it is great, as it is long enough]. I often had to cut ropes in that job, therefore, - viewed from the point of form factor -, I needed to have a fully serrated blade.
Side note: Who needs a woodsaw, a metal saw or a file if you already have an adapter for T-shank-jigsaw-blades on board? So I simply got myself such blades / files in form of T-shank-compatible blades and files.
Last but not least: The SuperTool 300 platform is carry legal in my country. Therefore I do not have to worry to overlap with the 'law'. [Annotation: Any item containing a one-hand operated blade is illegal to carry in public my country]. Maybe the MUT EOD would have been a better choice out of the box, but it is not carry legal here. A Multi-Tool is that kinda item you wear on your belt and forget about it, as it is just there, like a passport, a drivers-license, keys, etc. That's why that factor of carry-legal is that important to me.
Sounds like you built yourself the perfect multi tool for you application. Thanks for sharing.
Hello sir did u ever consider adding the flat bit holder from the 300m supertool? Also man I really want the 300 eod for that spike, Iv been looking for a tool with a marlin spike for years, is it really tat sturdy enough to be used as one without it breaking on you ?
Thanks for the video. This one made me decided to buy the supertool eod
Nice! Thank you for the info on the wire cutter blades! I'll probably be replacing the blades on my Rebar now. The wire cutters are the only thing on them I wasn't super impressed with since I actually do a lot of copper wire cutting.
I also think on this model that they could have dropped the single purpose saw since they have the replaceable saw as well and put in a full length Wharcliffe/sheepsfoot "safety" style serrated blade and left the other a full length plain edge. It just seems to me that a military themed multitool would benefit from having a good strap cutting capability. Plus, I'm also the type that if I want serrated, I want full length serrations, and if I want plain edge (my preferred), I want it full length as well.
Unfortunately, the EOD cutters will only fit on the EOD model tool. They are shaped a bit differently than the standard cutters. I didn’t realize that before posting the video. Apologies for the confusion.
Thanks for the wire cutter info buddy. 👍🙂
No problem.
very cool! i didnt know this one came with that file! thanks for the video :)
You’re welcome, thanks again for watching.
Wow this is the quality I want from Leatherman. Impressed. I'm tempted from the standard ST300. Thank you Sir, I keep watching and learning from Your videos.
You’re very welcome.
The C4 punch can undo knots. I carry an EOD ST 300 in my pack, a surge file can fit in the saw changer with some filing on the T shank. Additional saw can work in it too.
I could see a lot of use from that C4 punch.
The c4 punch can be used to adjust the fsb on an ar as well much like the tip of a bullet
Best tool I’ve seen I’m sold!!
Wish I had picked this one up before I did. It is pretty good.
Any chance you can measure the thickness of the t-shank adapter? I'm wondering if it can directly sub out the eyeglass screwdriver on the leatherman wave...
The hard wire cutter is on the inside base of the hand grips just below the hinge.
Hi Tool Crib, you mentioned signal and st300 saw. ST300 is Just a little bit longer. I am looking forward more vids.
That would make sense I guess. I think the Signal is more along the size of the Wave with a pummel, where the ST300 is a 4
1/2" framed tool. Thanks for the observation.
Does the black molle sheath fit on a regular belt?
Is there a File attachment You can buy that fits in the Saw holder..?
How do you close the leather man once you have opened it with the needle nose pliers ?
Hi Ben, question for you. Will say, a wood saw or file fit in that Metal saw adapter in this super tool 300 EOD ?
About the T-shank saw blade: How do you feel about getting a metal cutting jigsaw blade like the one on this tool for the Surge? Not just the one from leatherman, but any good brand blade? I'm not super familiar with jigsaws, but it looks like the T-shank blades usually don't have a hole in them and are relatively thin, so they'd also wiggle in the surge holder, right? Have you tried this before? Maybe it's possible to drill a hole into like a bosch jigsaw blade or something but it'd still be too thin to fill out the holder...Thanks for your input!
If the blade is thinner than the Surge holder, then you want them to be without the hole. The spring is designed to keep moderate pressure against the thinner aftermarket blades to help alleviate any rattle.
Really loving the blade exchanger on this bad boy. I usually experience the same difficulty with my Surge's exchanger that I just witnessed you have. It is unforgiving with less than perfect t-shank placement. Not a deal breaker by any means, but this one is superior by far for ease of use.
It is pretty nice to use, seems to hold those bits really solidly.
Where you bought this saw adapter?
I wondering . Can I move the T shank metal saw from ST300 EOD to my Wave to make it a perfect multitool ?
You can buy saw blades at your local hardware store that fit.
Normal jigsaw blades fit well.
Cool
Thought about getting this one and modifying the c4 punch to be a Marlin spike
My favourite Multitool, for sure. Ok, my 300 EOD was slightly modified by myself for my personal needs. Besides mine looks really beaten up after years of use and abuse, but I like it that way.
About the modifications: I've replaced the partly serrated blade with a regular Super-Tool 300 drop point blade. I've replaced the wood saw with a Super-Tool 300 fully serrated blade. (For what reason should I need a built-in woodsaw, if I can carry a set of replaceable, lightweight, easily available t-shank jigsaw blades for metal- / wood-cutting and grinding?). I've replaced the pliers with the standard Super-Tool 300 pliers. Why? Because I need the grippy part in the middle in my reality, instead of a crimper for priming charges. (I'm not doing EOD in a warzone ... just modified it for my warzone). :-)
So why all that hassle? For what? Five reasons:
1. I need a Multitool that offers a tool that can be used as a Marlin-spike (the C4-punch).
2. I have to cut stuff ... I need a drop-point blade.
3. I have to cut ropes, therefore I need a fully serrated blade.
4. It has to be carry legal in my country, as I want to carry it anytime and anywhere. (Any tool / knife with one hand operated blades is not carry-legal in my country).
5. I needed something unique, something not available out of the box. Therefore I've made up my mind and simply built it on the basis of available, original parts (which I had to import). :-) / :-(
I like it. I like it a lot. Thanks for sharing and for your reasonings behind your modifications.
Sorry, I'm a year and half late to the party but I bought this exact t-shank metal saw from the Leatherman website one day, hoping it would fit snugly in my Leatherman Surge, but it does not, sadly ): It has a little too much blade wobble for my liking. And same goes for every aftermarket metal saw i've tried too.. I wish they would just design a metal saw with a thicker t-shank, and hole for the tension spring.. that way we'd be able to use it in our other tools, like our beloved Surge for example D:
Does the black finish come off that easily
I used to use the USA and Canadian military issue EOD tool on UK detonators, and I found that the Crimping tool was a smaller diameter than our European detonators, which meant that I had to be careful to only use partial pressure when crimping my dets or I would cut right through the tube! I have to assume that these pliers would have the same issue, so buyer beware! Leatherman note: the replaceable wire cutter could incorporate a replaceable det crimper for different global markets...
The C4/PE spike is universal, but I wonder if the threads, and the cleaning tool threads, would match NATO thread sizes?
Now we are getting into the realm where you are going to be more knowledgeable than I could ever hope to be. All great points to consider. Thanks for sharing.
Do you have a video dedicated to the regular supertool 300?i have one but I'm curious to hear what you think of it.
I do.
Cannot remove the metal saw. Help please.
💚💚💚
Thank you.
Just to clarify. When you mention soft vs hard wire cutters are you you referring to stranded vs solid gauge wire or the difference between cutting copper wire and chain link fence? There seems to be some confusion in the comments.
I am referring to soft wire as copper and aluminum wire (solid or stranded). Hard wire would be things like chain link, nails, metal tie wire, coat hangers, etc......
You can stack two T-Shank style metal saws in the Leatherman Surge to get rid of any blade movement. Works flawlessly. Otherwise, you can cut the T-Shank of an old saw and use it as a spacer. Keep up your excellent work!
Great idea!
So do the surge tools fit in this blade exchanger?
Also if you do want to use jigsaw blades in your surge then some heat shrink tubing over the T shank tightens them up nicely
I don't know. I'll have to try it and get back with you.
Adam Lee the Surge file and saw are just a bit too thick to fit into that exchanger. They would have to be surfaced down in order to work.
I wonder why they dint fit?
Suspected as much. You'd definitely sand a surge file down fit though wouldn't you. Esp since the mutt sheath has an extra pocket.
That is a damn nice tool though
I’m wondering why the wire cutters won’t fit?
Can you use the t shank from the surge in the super tool or use jigsaw t shanks
Not the one from the Surge. It has a different lockup. However, the 300 EOD does have a similar T-shank adapter for using aftermarket accessories.
I'd like to put that inside tshank adapter in my wave.. and that phillips driver..
that is beautiful, the only thing it's missing is the T-Shank saw as I don't see it being included
What about scissors?
Hey! Would you recommend the black leatherman surge or the classic one?
Both, it's all a matter of your personal preference. I personally like the black/silver and silver versions myself.
TX Tool Crib I was eyeing the black/silver model .. does the black in the blade wears out quickly ! ?
I guess it all depends on how much you use it. Mine wore out fairly quickly because I use mine almost every day.
For more moist/wetter places the black oxide is more rust resistant having the BO on it. It's essentially pre rusted black.
Any idea if the eod cutters would fit a charge? Thanks.
I will double check, but they should fit all models with replaceable cutters.
rgoring81 Diezelle is correct. The EOD cutters are built slightly larger and with a more squared off end at the back. They are not a direct replacement for standard cutters.
Thanks for the replies
I have the new style sharper cutters that Ben mentions in both my surge and wave. While not quite as good as the eod cutters seem to be they are a worthwhile upgrade.
Sharp enough to grip onto 3 core 240v flex and still strong enough to snip a 1/4" bolt!
In testing the surge actually snipped the 1/4" bolt ever so slightly better than my snap on slip joint pliers which are the best pliers I've ever had
@@adamlee581 yeah I have the newer style in my g10 charge. Being a sparky the thought of better stranded wire cutting was appealing.
The EOD cutter inserts do need to be lightly modded to fit non EOD pliers.
I need to try this out.
I just tried to swap out and found they are shaped a bit different.
My ST300 EOD has MUT pliers so no go.
Also, I removed the main blade and installed SOG wire strippers.
The EOD is 154CM and I'm not exactly sure what the "premium" version is considering leatherman doesn't even specify they have different versions
0m3n thank you.
Wait did you forget to crimp something?
You do realize you are not cutting the wires properly(using the blades on the surge properly) you have to place the wires at the very end of the surge tool for it to securely make a clean cut, In most heavy duty Leatherman tool there is also a hard wire cutter below the pliers were the two grab handles meet.
Trying hard not to put wire all the way in the wedge/best spot for cutting for model that is not for promotion today 7:05
Tonny Malero not really. Crushes soft wire pretty good if you use the hard wire cutting notch.
