Multitools

I am a farmer and the three things I can't do without are my motorbike, cellphone and a Cape Union Mart Leatherman ripoff. I cut 2mm high tensile galvanised wire with my ripoff and the cutter can still take lots more punishment. That said, I am thinking of upgrading to the real mccoy if the farm will pay for it. But any multi-tool is better that no multi-tool.

just a little advice that i got from the leatherman repair guys, if you use your leatherman/woman anywhere near the sea then you should lubricate it with car engine oil as this is the best way to prevent it from rusting, the guys recon that you should not use WD40, Q20 etc etc on the thing....stick to engine oil!
 
How i tend to push the envelope on everything i own and then a bit beyond to test the boundries, and I must admit my Charge XTI has had it's fair share of a good beating, and it's still brand new, I can't be without it, just no way.  Also owned el cheapo rip-off's all the flavours but they lasted as long as they were in their pouches, most gave up on their first application.... I'm not saying they're CARP, I'm just saying that the LM is still as new after all the CARP it's be put through and it's been two + odd years.....

I have had a leatherman wave on my belt everyday I go out since 2004.

That leatherman has seen a lot of work even here in Dubai.

Wave is a great tool for guys with big hands.

Bought a Leatherman Pulse in 2002. Still going strong. The leather pouch shows some wear and tear but the knife is still in top condition.
