Pros & Cons
Pros
The leatherman has more tools on it but its stiffer. The philips screw driver is #2 (although it is very short and clumsy) the tool is not heavy and bulky.
The replaceable carbide inserts are very handy in case you cut something you should not be cutting. The only thing that might be an issue are the carbide triangular cutters. You can wear one out and then rotate it to a fresh cutter two more times.
New locking system is a very good idea. I love how the gerber tool open with a flick of the wrist. Locks are great, and double as a comfortable place to put one's thumb.
The finish is outstanding and maybe improved over the previous generation. Gonna have to order another and maybe a spare lol. My old one is in my surveyor's tool belt, and i carry the new one at all other times. This is the second gerber i have bought... Read More
The multi plier is a little stiff at first and needs some machine oil and a little use to loosen up. The new multi plier is slightly larger and also is the ballistic pouch.
Cons
The plier jaws are too stiff and need oiling before use. The screwdriver heads are too tick and the small screwdriver is too small and not as precise to be a small precision screwdriver. The carbide insert cutter leaves a gap at the base of the cutter... Read More
Highlights
Quality
), all the tools seem sturdy and well made.
Great product well made i use it every day.
And the wire cutters should only be used on copper or small gage steel, broke a set trying to extend their capability.
Have gone through 3 of them and gerber replaced every one when they died for free.
Shipping
I got this one to get me by while my gerber diesel multi tool was being sent back to gerber.
Did have to wait a little bit longer than expected for delivery, but there was good communication with the seller concerning this.
Competitiveness
Better than the needlenose pliers on the competition for work in the trades.
I had 2 gerber, a lethearman and another i can't remember the brand.
