Someone should make a custom multitool, where you select the tools/blades, and their arrangement in the multitool.

Strange thing is Gerber user to do this, but it looks like they don't offer it anymore. You used to be able to order which tools you wanted on which side and pick what sort of plier jaws you wanted, color, etc. I looked just now and they appear to have stopped offering that.

Everytime I open the scissors on my Wave I think "Damn, that's an ingenious system for a pair of scissors". I must say I'm happy with my Wave but I don't use it very hard, so it looks like new after one year. Victorinox does look pretty strong, but I like the needle nose on the Wave better.

My PowerPlier is from when they were first released, I think. Also, mine aren't needle nosed.

The juice KF-4 serves me well.

Not necessarily the best, but the Pulse has served me well. It's got locking tools that I regularly need, doesn't weigh a ton, isn't too big and was reasonably priced.

Always been a leatherman kinda guy. When leatherman releases their new tools, I think they just might set new standards for multi tools.

Those new tools sure look nice.

This is STILL a timely and useful thread.


And, it ties in quite nicely to Monocrom's recent thread on Multi-Tools in B.O.B. use.

The Leatherman Wave and Charge are tough to beat. I'm a multi-tool guy, those 2 are my favorites. There are a few different Charge models to choose from that have slightly different tools so you could pick which one suits you best.
The Wave is very similar, sometimes having the exact same tools, but has a different feel in.your hand. IMO the Charge has a more comfortable feel due to it's nicer nicer scales, but you pay for those scales so to some it's not worth it.
I've never been a big fan of Gerber, and to top it off with a ginormous cherry, the fact that there made in China kills it for me every time. Leatherman is made in the US.
If rust is a big concern, the Vic Swisstool is a fantastic choice. That is a great jul multi as well and is nice to use.

I prefer the Charge TTi, mainly for the S30v blade and titanium scales. The Gerber switchblade-y plier one handed opening is really fun, though.

I also prefer Charge TTi, it is the best tool

I'm a big fan of the Leatherman MUT. For me it is the perfect EDC for my career choice(Army).
