I want a leatherman for Chrimbo, but there are too many to choose from… has anyone got one to recommend? I want to have the ability to take a PC apart (if I suddenly have the idea to write of thousands of pounds worth of kit!) and do usual odd jobs with.
Cheers
lol spunker………..not sure i want to know what sites you visit!! 😯
I bought myself the leatherman charge Ti or summat when i was out in the States a few years back, it comes with all the usual bits, has a changeable screwdriver (slotted to phillips) and also various other screwdriver heads (hexaganal type heads).
If you want to save some money
i have the leatherman kick at least i think thats the one (had mine for years before they were so popular), its the most basic of them but tbh there isnt anything that a little imagination cant solve with regards to not having the exact tool for the job. and i the tools available on it cover most of what anyone needs from a portable tool.
oh and you dont really need one with scissors on when you have a blade.had mine for 9 years now and nothing has broken.
the wave is the most popular and is probably the best as its middle of the range with regards to features but its twice the price of the kick.
I also have a leatherman kick but before the age of the scissor addition, it’s old like me and as above, it’s still going strong.
I’ve had a Pulse for several years now. Really good general purpose tool.
But what are you doing poncing about with one for fixing a PC? Leathermen are for manly activities like huntin’, shootin’, and skinnin’ varmints!
I’ve had a wave for a few years now, with the screwdriver attachment deely. Easier that draggin a load of tools about although I do find I end up making do with whatever the leatherman’s got instead of going and getting the proper tool.
Tried using it for hunting but hoying it at an elk just resulted in in a severe goring (I wee in a bag now)
We found a pretty decent one in my garden last year, I think some nob had been bouncing on my trampoline in the middle of the night when he was pissed, so it served him right. Vic took it, so I don’t know what it was or anything about it, but he got all excited, bless…
I have used the bog standard one for years Turks, use it to build my computers, skin animals, cut biltong, its fine
