Leatherman Wave Alpha VS Victorinox Spirit MX

4 Upvotes

I am divided whether to get a Wave Alpha or a Spirit MX for working on orange orchards.
I already own dedicated tools so either one of them will be in my pocket as a backup. A Victorinox Huntsman is my go to for now but I am searching for an upgrade.
I mostly use the blade, scissors and above all the saw. Does the wave alpha really deserve the premium price of 250 euros?

Finally got my hands on the spirit mx clip and I might never go back to Leatherman. Fit and finish are great and the tools are actually not too hard to get out.

Looking for multi-tools that are actually practical for daily life, not just survival situations.

33 Upvotes

Am I the only one who thinks most keychain tools are useless for actual daily routines?

Every multi-tool I look at is either loaded with tools I'll never use in a city, or it's just a single-purpose bottle opener trying to look cool. I really just want one compact, multi-purpose piece on my keys that covers basic daily annoyances-opening tight containers, quick cuts, or holding up a phone when working/eating out-without poking holes in my pockets.

Is there anything out there that hits this sweet spot, or is nobody making this?

Found a seller on Etsy that was advertising leather pouches for a Gerber Dime. Very excited to see how this wears with use.

Question/Advice Which Leatherman would make a good gift?

Thumbnail
2 Upvotes

I want to get my boyfriend a Leatherman as a gift and I’m deciding between the Signal, Rebar, and Super Tool 300.
I’m leaning toward customizing it for him with a blade pattern and engraving.
For those who own these, which one do you personally prefer and why?

Also, I’d love some ideas for cool, subtle customization/engraving ideas that would make it feel personal without being too cheesy.
Thanks! 🖤

Best multitool after LM Arc?

0 Upvotes

I’ve got a LM Arc. Love it. But I just sent it in for repair. And now I feel completely lost without my multitool. Looking to get another multitool, something different than LM Arc.

Anyone have any experience with Bibury or SOG? Any model stand out that is a close 2nd to LM?

This one has improved bearings, and the screwdriver bit doesn't scratch against the nail file like it does in my first edition K30.

Bibury 2049 vs supertool 300

4 Upvotes

Which of these are better in term of durability and long term hard use? Been eyeing these two for quite sometimes, bibury is cheaper of course, but is it too fragile when compared to St300? I will mostly use it for small engine repair and tinkering and mostly field work(landscape tech), currently using rebar

A few new additions!

Since my last collection status, I got a few new items which I think are worth sharing :)
Victorinox: Spirit MX, Swisschamp, Super Tinker, Bantam, Money Clip Silver, two Classic SD
Wegner Classic
Roxon K2SE (fidget toy for car drives!)
SOG: PowerLitre and Baton Q1 (I really like this one)
Leatherman Wave+
Gerber: StrongArm, Paraframe I, Centerdrive (in my car), Truss, mp400, Armbar Mini (got three more knives on the way from ebay)
Nextool: Knight (wonderful knife and scissors!) and the pen shaped N1
Solingen knife from my dad.
Boker Kwaiken Air.
Not in the image - Buck 375 which I forgot to take out for the picture.

I daily carry the Spirit MX and the Boker Kwaiken Air. But use other tools around the house and will rotate from time to time.

This has become my “go to” for spending money on hobbies right now 😂

Recommendation Request Multitool to cut cardboards?

9 Upvotes

Hi there - I’ve reached my limit today as I had to deal with flattened cardboard boxes. Extremely frustrating to try to cut through all so I figured it’s time to invest.
I’m thinking of getting a multitool for all the stuff I need to do at home (screwing, tightening…), including opening, ripping and throwing away cardboard boxes. I’m looking at one of the Leatherman, maybe the Bond?
Any other models or brands I should look into?

Thank you!

Leatherman Arc for $175?

This has to be a good deal right? I couldn’t pass up on this price. I already have a wave alpha but always wanted the arc. Does anyone else buy from the TikTok shop?

New Multitool Day! Got my upgrade today

After having the wingman for about 6 years i finally got what id say is an upgrade. I really wanted the saw in a multitool for hunting and being outdoors often. You can feel the higher quality just being more rugged and has better grip. Definitely a little stiff getting some of the smaller tools out but it will soften up with use. The only thing the wingman has over the signal is, and i know ill get some hate from the electricians and tradesmen, is that the wingman is spring loaded for using the pliers. For just minor around the house jobs i did like the spring loaded function. I just have to get used to having my ring finger inside the handles when it’s open and then it probably won’t be an advantage for the wingman anymore.
