LEATHERMAN, Bond Multitool, Stainless Steel EDC Tool with 420HC Blade and Nylon Sheath

First of all I’m a Leatherman guy. Love their products for toughness, reliability, and quality. The Bond is Lightweight and perfect for EDC. It is my summer shorts carry multi-tool.

I have many multi-tools, both Swiss army knives and Leathermans.Among Leathermans, I have the wave, surge, PST, super tool, micra and rebar. This is the cheapest of them all, and is my favorite for EDC.

Purchased as a gift- my family member was very happy. All as described, quality tool, nice case for it too.

I have carried a leatherman for years, over 20, a gift from my wife. Then, I misplaced it. Couldn't decide if I really needed another one, but finally bit the bullet and bought this. There are quite a few changes from my original leatherman to this one (same model). Most I think are ok. However, it is very stiff and difficult to open and close. First time with the knife, I cut myself closing it. I am always amazed at how often I reach for it and it is really annoying how difficult it is to open and close. The value of the tool more than outweighs this little annoyance. BTW, I am on my second leather case and this one fits right at home.

I bought this as a replacement for a Leatherman that I had owned for 18 years. I was an idiot and forgot it was in backpack when it was confiscated at airport security.While I would consider this a typical Leatherman in terms of price, it is definitely more basic than my previous tool. The individual tools will meet my needs for quick fixes when I am away from home. The ones that are missing should not be much of an issue.For the price, it seems lower end than I would have expected. However, I hope to get at least 18 years out of this one too.

My favorite pocket sized multi tool.

Love the simplicity of it, and it's a great price for what you get for quality. My father had a very similar one when I was growing up so I had to get it. I use it for sorts of things during my day now because it's light and easy to carry.

I finally lost my PST after ~25 years. Since my primary interest was in the pliers, I got one of the lower end models that was closest to the original. This is improved in every way from the original PST. The edges are rounded, so it can be squeezed harder without killing your hand, the opening mechanism is more solid, and the tools are more thoughtfully arranged. Time will tell if it has the same longevity of the original model, but I don't see any defects that would indicate early failure.One of the big problems with the original was some of the tools could collapse in use. The phillip head screwdriver was particularly egregious. Yea, if it's closed, it won't snap shut on your hand, but that's little consolation after slamming your knuckles into the work surface. All the tools /tend/ to stay put in use with the Bond. If one was using the interior tools all the time, it might be a good idea to get one of the models with locking blades, but for occasional use, the Bond is fine. If used as directed, you won't have amputated digits.So... If you liked the Original PST, this is the same thing but better. It's a good tool at a good price. If you think you want something more. I can't help you. Checkout some of the other models. I've always been happy with Leatherman's workmanship. There's a quality Leatherman available for whatever you want to do.
