After I showed my Surge to a friend, he was delighted and wanted one too with a MUT pouch, spare saw/file and ratchet. The most useful and versatile Leatherman for me.

Excellently made multitool that can do a lot. I carry it in the larger MUT pouch, so there is still room inside for a replacement tool, as well as a torch and a fire starter on the outside.
-
Excellent multitool, absolutely top-tier in terms of build quality, materials used, and precision of fit and finish. I have around 10 different models, and if I had to keep only one, I would choose this one. Its only drawback may be its considerable weight — it really is a solid chunk of steel, about 350 grams. The blade is excellent, so there is no need to carry an extra folding knife, and the tools themselves are very practical. The scissors are by far the best among all the models. For me, this tool set is ideal. It is just a shame that the Charge does not offer the same. In summary: an excellent choice, a very solid tool, and I will definitely buy another one, this time in the stainless version. Another advantage is the interchangeable T-shank sockets — it is a shame that LM has not introduced them to other models. In short, if you are hesitating — it is definitely worth it.
-
Reliability, excellent workmanship and precision are qualities that I always associate with Leatherman products. Every zloty spent on this American brand's offerings is an investment for many years.
-
After a long search, I decided this is the best multi-tool for very demanding tasks. Indeed, it is heavy, durable, and practically indestructible. My only comment is that it operates a bit stiffly – it’s not as smooth to use as I would like.
-
Large and heavy, it gives the impression of being a really solid product. I bought it and was surprised that at this price, no case or carrying pouch was included! The personalisation is done very well – I especially recommend it as a gift.
-
These are my second Leatherman pliers – again, very sturdy, the workmanship is of a high standard. In the set I found a sheath and a file in a separate case. I received the product without any damage.
-
Used in the garden, at home, and at work – no technical problems. The main advantages are its sturdiness, T-shank blade slot, and scissors. Other functions are similar to other models. Disadvantages: the bit pocket in the pouch is too tight, and when you insert two sets of bits, you have to force the saw pouch to close. Additionally, the pouch construction lacks a MOLLE system.
-
I have had this multi-tool for over a year now and its been in my kit bag all the time. It's been incredibly useful to have and I have used it to fix a lot of issues even made use of the saw to cut some branches which were in a awkward location. I have even purchased a dedicated pouch made by Savotta for it. Highly recommend, excellent quality and extremely useful.
-
This is already my second multitool from this brand. I probably don't need to mention the quality – Leatherman always keeps the standard. If I had to point out something, it would be the weight, but thanks to that the tool is really solid.
-
A durable tool offering many options. The interchangeable blades are a big advantage. The product is well made, comfortable to use and easy to transport. We'll see how it performs in prolonged use.
-
I took it with me on trips and for more complex household tasks, and over time I got the feeling of a serious tool. It feels solid and robust, and everything works logically and without unnecessary movements. When you need confidence in the result, it never makes you doubt. It is comfortable to carry, easy to access, and works stably. Overall, this is a choice for those who want a reliable solution at hand and don’t want to think about compromises.
-
The price may seem a bit high, mainly due to the 25-year warranty. For this model, the weight is noticeable, so it’s not a pocket-sized device. The tools work smoothly, do not jam, and have solid locks.
-
This time I got the black version. It's a true workhorse among American tools. The price is high, but many are tempted to finally have one.
-
"Solid kit." A true giant among Yankee tools. A sturdy workhorse – what more can I say. It's not cheap, but many will no doubt wish to own one someday.
