@maxlvledc question about the last bit driver adapter. Is it the right size to put on a 1/4 square (socket) adapter?
(I've heard so much about how bad the bits are (bad heat treat) but the form factor is so compelling. Being able to store more Leatherman bits in the same physical space as regular 1/4 hex bits makes me want to try them but I'd like to use a Chapman with a 1/4 square bit as the driver.)
We need more leatherman content creators
This is an excellent point.
I've got some projects in the pipeline, in about a year be on the lookout for more tool/Leatherman reviews
I want a Leatherman bandolier to carry all the accessories.
It would take one to carry ALL of them…A belt maybe with them all around it…?
@@jameshoffman1842two holsters on each hip too
At what point does a multitool start being more hassle to carry than full size tool with not as good precision
Yes they hate money. The Ratchet extender has been out of stock for over a year and cost over $100 to get it somewhere online
And I still bought one because I thought I needed it. Turns out, I did. Got the 90 deg. one they sell on Amazon. Every day carried
@@jameshummel8776can you share a link for the one you got?
I feel the bit kits are underrated. People praise the regular 1/4 inch bits but dont realize you can carry 40 bits a LM ratchet driver with a Surge and have a workshop on your hip.
Carry that every day!
I can’t agree the flat bits are soft and deform plus by design they have less cross sectional area and just don’t grip well. Your mileage may vary.
I've been doing this for years with my charges and Arc. It's been really handy.
So basically their marketing team is one dude with a Chromebook
I would be 10x as good on the first day with a cell phone.
I still have the Leatherman I bought on the USS Peleliu in 96 or so when I was a Marine on deployment. Use it almost every day!
Got mine in Okinawa in 85 on my way to Germany. Still use it sometimes not every day
@@paulbosley6448 That's awesome, man!
The ratchet is a must have. And I am not overexaggerating. It is so good it should be included with every high end leatherman.
But it's not because Leatherman is just fine with money, weird...
I go with SOG, that compound leverage is awesome! I've have issues with Leatherman saying damage was from abuse and since the tool is riveted together, it's a unit, we won't repair it for free. SOG has had no problem sending me new plier heads or accessories and I just fix it myself. It's a plus to customize it with tools that I use more regularly.
They don't do that any more btw, now that they are owned by GSM
I sent a leatherman back. Told them I broke the file trying to pry a brake pad off a railcar ..sent me a new rebar.
@@conductorcammon Lol!
I've noticed that they've replaced the riveted Squirt PS4 with a screwed together version. Much cheaper to replace one tool than the entire multi-tool.
I do agree. I am a faithful Leatherman user. I bought the very first model when it became available. I presently own 5 different models and you have to take it upon yourself to figure out which accessories you might want or need. They could definitely do better in their presenting what they offer.
Thanks for the video brother.
I love my Leatherman wave and yes the ratchet extension is a god send as well as well as the bit kit set they have paid for themselves time and time again
I got a wingman Leatherman with the bit accessory and an extension for a gift how are you supposed to put bits to use do they go in a special tool or leatherman
It's sad that they discontinued the leatherman rachet driver. I'm so happy I got one before they ran out.
Really, truly- they discontinued the rathet driver?!?
The impact drive is the best one by far!
And then they make custom badass multi tools that everybody wants, but they only make 100 of them and people jack the price up in the aftermarket
Um, I'm not sure Leatherman hates money. A single extender (no bits inc) for the Wave (for ex) is $20, that's really expensive. In reality, the accessories wind up being very expensive. I do however LOVE my Wave AND I have a 30year+old Leatherman thats has been well used and looks and works like new. It actually has 'patent pending' stamped on it. Even the original leather case has lasted well.
He didn't say you're not paying for quality or something, because that's what you do. Quality products cost a bit more.
What he's saying is that they could make even more money if they just "exposed" their line of products more.
It's just a clickbate title to get views it has nothing to do with real life
@@Whigu🤡🤡
Leatherman makes accessories for people who already know what the accessories are and what they do
Man, with how useful these knives seem on a first glance, I just keep getting surprised again and again at how versatile these things are
You mean multi tools?
I really gotta get myself a Leatherman
i found a leatherman on the side of a road and after using it a couple of times, I can see why!
Mann, you're lucky for finding it 😭
Unusual. From years of owning multiple models, I can say for sure that most are high quality pieces, but I did purchase a brand new Wave that had QC issues, got a full refund and have never had that problem again. To be honest in this, the best Leatherman's are above $100, below that it can be sketchy. For example, my Super Tool 300 is flawless, but the more budget oriented models such as the Sidekick isn't one that I'd recommend.
Couldn’t have said it better.
@@project7442
Whhhoooooooossshhh!
And his name isn’t “Mann.” It’s “Ghost Ship.” 😂
@@keirfarnum6811 😂😂
I've loved Leatherman since everyone in basic & AIT either had one or wanted one. This was back in mid 90s and even though not every product appeals to me, I've been nothing but satisfied and never had anything break on me. When I need it, it's there.
If it wasn't for good people like you making videos we would not know nothing about accessories! Thank you!
I literally broke my new surge yesterday trying to cut so 12 Guage wire. The pliers completely snapped in half. The medium flat head snapped last week. idk if it's just mine but the wave I had 10 years ago seemed much stronger
That's super wierd...I'd contact leatherman
25 year warranty. Did they replace it?
Dude, if heaven is measured by those tools, u r already there. I love your collections! Those r limited, rare or extra fancy though 😇🤩😎😁
The leathermans you mentioned all had pre installed lanyard loops…
Do they all? Both of my Charges and I think my list Wave came with them just not installed...
Got a Leatherman PST II.
Nice to have in my pocket. Good quality.
I wanna see you make a lock-pickers Leatherman using parts off Covert Ins. or something because they have holes on the tools perfect for adding to your EDC.
I had no idea thanks! Love my 300 super tool but didn't know about all these nifty accessories!
Also they're just ridiculously overpriced, so nobody really needs to know about them.
A multi tool is a self contained tool to cary for quick use when needed. You might as well carry a tool box if you’re into accessories.
Wave pocket clip is great.
The Ratcheting bit driver and a SOG power pint are a total game changer.
Still waiting on the resupply of the ratchet driver. It's $35.oo part, I'm not spending $150 for it on the secondary market.
So glad I found your channel. Please don’t start cramming products down our throats like most do!!
He's right. I use that Leatherman adapter with my Victorinox Mini Champ. The square side of the adapter fits very nicely on the philips driver/bottle opener.
It's not about the money, it's about the tools we meet along the way
Idk why you would file down the extender, they work perfect for front iron sights. They can also be used to tighten certain bolts.
So true! I got that middle extender, from watching your videos lol
Your right. Iv been hunting the proper multi tool for years. Haven’t bought one because all yuh see is the baby models in stores and there’s hardly any information online.
If I can help email me, mle.collab@gmail.com
Buy a wave plus and a bit kit. Plus an extender.
Leatherman does like money 💰. They knew someone would make one of these videos b4 long. Leatherman actually saved tens of thousands of dollars in advertising when u posted this video lol
You’re giving me some ideas on how to spend my free time during my christmas break.
I've owned those for over 20 yrs
Love the wave o have had a few and the wave is the nicest, although I like the new one they have
They hate money but why they so expensive shit WHY!
I definitely had no idea they offered a ratchet
Leatherman also hates freedom... At one point in time they were supplying tools to the atf with the words "always think forfeiture" marked on them. It was said in the event an agent isn't sure what to do, forfeiture of the item in question is always an option. I'm not saying these great Leatherman tools are not of quality, I'm just recommending we buy things from people who value freedom.
In the multitool world they are still better than the others.
Leatherman hates money 😂 so true
👍. The edges of the bit holders are excellent for prying certain things you don’t want scraped/scratched, car, electrical, knives. 🧐
They do advertise just not where you think.For example my local range has a massive leatherman poster and also I think it’s one of those; the people who have it are the adverts. Like I always had it recommended to me and now I am the one saying to people hey check out leatherman; I love mine.🤔
So glad I found your channel after whatnot, good stuff man. I thought I was the only one who thought letherman didn’t promote their own shit 😅
my surge is about 13 years old, been through a couple of pouches over the years
My right ear liked this
Don't forget the tweezers. Leatherman tweezers are awesome!
Awesome man can't wait for part 2
Already up 👍
I was excited when they announced the ratcheting bit driver, up until the point if came out that it's made overseas. I pay a premium for Leatherman because they are made in USA.
Would love to see the pocket clip for supertool300
Very good to keep in your bike tool kit. I have the victorinox ratchet kit and the spirit x multitool
surprisingly Leatherman is doing just fine
They should have made the Free P2 and P4 compatible with the Rebar bit adapter
Yes, its true- Leatherman hates money!
Wow... I had my first Leatherman like 30 years ago and I didn't know of the existence of ANY of these... Plot twist: We sell Leatherman in our shop! (I don't personally, but we stock them)
Love these product s!❤
so true, but glad they don't so we can get the info from you!
Your title fits. I had no idea of the accessory variations.
It can be a simple explanation for that. The accesories are not fabricated directlly by them. If they need to sell more of them they need MORE MONEY blocked on a order to they suplier for that accesories. For the part 2: When they put discounts on their accesories, is probabilly need some money fast to pay something so they sell their existing stocks or their production slow down and the batches from the suppliers are becoming acumulating stocs and there fore blocked money flows. Also thei may do this for atracting people on their site and increasing the sales on their tools. But in my experience is that thing with batches comming from supliers as scheduled but to fast for their own production.
I wish they made the bit sets configurable with a wider variety available. I only need metric Bits and could use a few more of them instead of imperial ones.
Lots of companies are sooo bad at marketing
Which I can't understand at all...for got sakes it's how you make your money!
Very nice!
Great company and a warranty program that can’t be beat.
I will take exception with the nylon sheath that has the inner pocket for the bit holders and two outer pockets for bit extensions. I Now I have had to sew up the bottoms to keep the extensions from slipping out. And how about making an extension that works with drill motors.
I have used and owned those accessories for nearly as long as I have been a Leatherman Tool owner fast approaching 40 years
Surge has lanyard built in on the end already
The wave and charge have a built in lanyard hole as well.
Good point. Why don't they do an accessories vid? Is it because the accessories aren't guaranteed like the tools themselves? Maybe they don't have to as lots of TH-camrs see this as a miss and are keen to show their accessories thereby doing the job for them, and with genuine enthusiasm.
I am someone who works Maint. for a living. No one is going to carry a multitiool and then also carry whole sets off accessories to still be left with tools that halfway do the job they are supposed to.
This video only applies to people who then hope when they pull out their tools a random person says "hey cool" thus validating their pointless extra purchases.
if only leatherman would make/release more of the ratchet bit holders, i’d buy it but no way imma pay 200 for it 2nd hand.
Leatherman is awesome
Except the wave already has a built-in lanyard ring, and they don't tell you that
I've had a Leatherman for years and I never knew any of these things existed.
I had no idea. I’ve needed a ratcheting attachment for probably decades and didn’t realize it exists.
Like I said..their marketing team..needs to be fired.
All multitools without corkscrew are goes straight to the trash😮
Where can you get that black leather with the red stitch holdster in the upper left corner?
Ah, yellow birtch outfitters.
They don't want to turn it into an expensive collecting hobby which would automatically happen if people knew about all the different parts.
*Leatherman™️* relies on word of mouth and brand superiority for their advertising.
I’m perpetually finding out that I’m living 20 years past the golden age of all these companies.
Just saw the numbers on my crunch are 1199, is that a November of ‘99?
…. Figure it out …. Soldier! 🇺🇸🗽
Wave is the best tool a man or woman could ever own. There is no debating 🤷♂️ I’ve had one all my life since the very first one .
recently bought the leatherman bit adapter set... I also wanted the bit kits and the leatherman Style PS... but both were old out and the bitkits will reportedly only be available in europe next year...
so I just got the bitadapter and now I didtched the other items and found other solutions..
Their torx bits really are soft
"Leatherman takes the leather out of you" unofficial text phrase. Catch it! Ooh it's a hot potato 🥔 🔥
I want a pocket clip for my rebar.
I just want a pocket clip for my rebar
Im using Surge/Super Tool 300M with one bitset and Rachet bitdriver
Personally I think all of these are pointless because the whole point for it, is to easily fit into any pocket (with the exception of the pocket clip of course, which is a must-have for sure).
Can you do a video or short on upgrades for the MUT
Hard to top perfection...but have you seen how the swisscard scissor fits in one of the bit slots??
Can’t find the second part
If Leatherman hates money I'd sure hate to see their prices if they decide to adore money.
All the bits on my leatherman broke. Since then I am using a swiss army knife.
Oh and the black coating got ugly sooo quick.
Lamborghini doesn't advertise either...
Touche
Do you know where to get a sheath that will hold a bit kit and a Super Tool 300 (as shown in the video)?
i think they heard you , the recent price hikes are all your fault hahaha.
Leatherman's lanyard clip is included it's hidden inside the tool
True, but they still include it
I'd really like some tool blanks for my Leatherman wave in several different thicknesses. I have ideas for unique tools to replace the ones I done use. Any ideas?
Actually there is only one extender and that is the ratchet. It is so good holy shit. If you don't have it yet buy it right now immediately. It's a game changer and you won't regret it.
Only issue I have with it is strength..just don't put too much pressure
I wish I could find a pocket clip for my 300. That would be cool!
I got you: amzn.to/3BnE2zo
@@maxlvledc Dude thank you! These look awesome, I might put one on my phone too. So many options of what to hang on my pocket now.
