Pros & Cons

Pros

I expect this to outlast me, if yiu use it as described. Great for edc in an urban or suburban area.

The package opener is great for opening plastic packages. The locking features for the knife a scissors work great. The knife and scissor placement, and spring loaded pliers make one handed operation easy.

This tool is doable for a edc in your back pocket next to your wallet. Nice compact size too. Fits easily into a pocket or a tool pouch. If your looking for a smaller multi tool for pocket carry, this is your tool.

All parts appear to be good quality stainless. Well made and durable.

It still pays to buy usa. And it does so at a reasonable price. It's worth every penny.



Cons

The leatherman wingman screams cheap overpriced junk. They claim it's stainless steel but i find it hard to believe. Just 2 years and already appears rust everywhere. Extremely upset with leatherman.

This one is less convenient, harder to manipulate and set of tools is not ideal. The screwdrivers are ok, but if you only need that and a sharp blade, i'd recommend one of several other tools by the same manufacturer that offer more for the same money...  Read More

The file is single sided, less than an inch long and has no sawing edge. The knife utility is hampered by adding a saw edge to ~ half the length. Can't cut a fishhook. The spring on the scissors only fails 30% of the time.

The wire cutters are beyond horrible. Because the handles are curved, even when it's closed it is spread at least an inch further apart than the wave. Unless you have huge hands it makes it nearly impossible to get your hands around the grips if you h...  Read More

Blade lock is small and the blade will cut you unless you close it with both hands.

Price


This is a great tool for the price point!


Good value and it’s very compact great for working and camping etc.


But for the reduced price, this is a great value.


If it was priced $2000 dollars i would pay it with no hesitation trust me on that.

Packaging/appearance


It comes in a very nice box, with a nice holster (pictured).

Competitiveness


I will not use the sheath for the simple fact that i don't use chinese garbage, plus it's a shame they don't make their own (ca...  Read More


I’ve owned a half dozen multi tools including leatherman, gerber and schrade.


The quality is definitely less than the surge but is still a quality tool at 1/3 the cost.


The wingman has a good selection of tools for the price and a few notable upgrades and drawbacks compared to the juice series.
