bob multi tool

[bronson3304]

looking for a good quality multi tool for my bob, any sugestions?

I don't have one in my bob but I carry a leatherman wave.
I also would love to drop the coin on a leatherman MUT.

I have both Gerbers and LMs and have multiple models. I carry the Gerber on my belt fishing and in my suitcase on vacation and it has never failed me. Gerber cost a little less however either will do the job.

For the price, the Gerber Suspension is a decent choice.

The SOG is nice but my Gerber is the best multi-tool I have found at least for me personally.
I have used them since the leathermen I had broke, was replaced and broke again. Never had a failure with the Gerber. Had one stolen but never broke one.

SOG is one of 3 Multi Tools that I have not been able to break. With the other 2 being Shrade and Buck. I actually prefer the Buck Tool but they are no longer made...

I have not seen the Schrade tool. I have a few of their knives and they are tough pieces. The Gerber I carry gets worked everyday. Very handy. I guess it is a personnel thing like so many other choices.

I like them they are probably the handiest to use. I just have broken enough of them that they sent me a Letter Recommending that I switch to a different brand of tool...

I used to break the Plier Jaws regularly...

This^^^

Too many advantages over the others... it still puzzles me why people would by Gerber & Leatherman over SOG.

 

[flatlander]

Ummm
My name is BOB and I've owned Gerber tools ever since they came out.
Just sayin'

In my humble opinion

I have carried multi tools every day for over 25-30 years... have tried manybut.

My Recommendation is

Leatherman Super tool 300 and elutriationsscissors in my letterman supercool scabbard along with my super tool.

The super tool Is strong... holds a good edge

Big enough to do real work. and comfortable.

Blows Gerber away!

If I have my pants on... it’s on my hip... if not it’s within reach.

I also carry Leatherman micra on my keying. (as do my wife, and 4 adultkids)

 

[red_zr24x4]

I carry one made by Victronix (Swiss Army) everyday. I've had it for about 12 yrs. now.

I currently have a Gerber Suspension that works great for the problems i come across and for $35 it has been well worth it. Really depends on what type of work you will come across.

anyone know what the attachment that is just a hole is for?

 

[DadOfFour]

I've had Shrade, Leatherman, Gerber and they're all decent. I'm happy with all of them, and carry them regularly.

Same with leatherman...broke everyone I have owned. Treat the Gerber's the same way...no failures..... Personnel preference....

 

[Exodus]

blamecharles the hole is for a lanyard I believe.
I have broke Gerbers. I am on my first Leatherman, and have only had it a few months so we will see. I think SOG multitools are like Glocks.

I have not owned a Leatherman in the last 20 years. I was that unimpressed with the first one I bought...

another +1 for SOG. I have one and it's solid. BTW never had a problem with warranty work on a SOG either
