Just a heads up peeps if you order the tool online it says lifetime warranty in your cart. If you buy in store it only comes with a 90 day limited warranty! So buy online if you can! Again the free lifetime warranty pops up only after you have added the item to your cart. I went and returned the one i had bought in store and bought it and had it shipped to my house online so it would have the lifetime warranty attached!

Man, you got this out quick. I'm the one that sent in the tip. Glad to see it's not junk. I've been loving HF recently.

The guys at Harbor Freight have been bringing it lately. They are tapped into the market and clearly understand how to write the specs for the OEM.

Competition is always a great driver of innovation, so I say bring it on. Leatherman seems to need a swift kick to the nuts as of late.

If you are an inside track member, Harbor freight has a 20% off any item no exclusions in store coupon going on for memorial day weekend. It makes this $32 - same price as the LM bit kit, lol!

Nice video. I bought a leatherman wave with a leather case that came with it back in 1994. It costs me a little over 40 bucks at Wal-Mart. I still have it. I use it just about every day at work. It has not broken or has any pieces missing or chipped. I am proud to have one that lasted me this long. Waves are hard to beat.

I've been hesitating on buying a Surge or Wave but really want something bigger than my SOG Powerpint. Got a HF 5 mins down the road so I'll be picking one of these up. Thanks for staying informed on the industry, because it probably would have been months till I even saw this thing otherwise.

Just picked one up and wow you weren’t lying pretty good for 40$!! Pleasantly surprised

Leatherman’s pricing has been out of control for a while now. Hopefully this brings them back to earth. $32 for that tiny bit kit is ridiculous.

I’ll keep doing business with Leathermen. They have done alright by me over the years. Whenever I need my Supertool 300 tuned up, it has always been done for free and promptly shipped back to me.

If Harbor Freight makes a leatherman style bit kit, I will buy them both. And if their clone bits are sturdier than leatherman's, it will be absolutely hilarious.

I just bought one from my local store, wasn't even on the shelf yet. The employee went to the back room, opened the package, and handed me the first one. I opened the package and checked it out as soon as I got in the car and the multi-tool was just as described. This is my new daily carry for sure. Thank you for the content, sir.

Just picked this multi tool up today after watching your video this morning. I’ve had a Leatherman Wingman for years, and always wanted a Wave but not at that price point. I am blown away by how nicely made this Gordon tool is, for $40 it’s an absolute steal!

Awesome! I would love to see Harbor Freight come out with a complete set of bits, a ratchet, and a Surge clone! Leatherman needs to wake up!

This will be my next multi tool purchase without a doubt. For the price its def a no-brainer.

Harbor freight has stepped up their game on a lot of things lately. For instance, floor jacks and winches compete with the big name brands

It’s crazy how similar these two are. It even has the hidden lanyard under the saw just like the wave! Great video I picked this up right after watching this video! Now I’m looking on how to add a fero rod

Hopefully they will do a surge version! Leathermans B.S. with the ratchets impossible to get and garage scams have pushed me away from them.

Some people have been claiming this has a lifetime warranty due to a typo. It does not. It's 90 days as per the product page and as per all other Gordon products.

I’m loving this. I go regularly to HF and always wished they would distribute some of the clones one sees in Amazon or Aliexpress but this went much further. 😊

Walmart/Ozark Trail has a $40 one that I used for years before losing it. I was impressed.

As a big leatherman fan I have to say that I am tired of them being stolen on site. An alternative that does what I need and can be abused without you being worried about damaging something expensive, well for me, I’m happy that there are working mens tools coming into the market.

I just got this I have a handful of Leatherman multi tools. This right up there with them. the good quality is outstanding. I was very surprised.

I have a Wave and Surge and love them both, but this new clone from Harbor Freight is priced perfectly for my 13 year old son who is in Scouts.

Just picked one up, I'm impressed with the build quality. The knife blades have a good edge for factory edges. The files work well, no peeling on the diamond file yet, don't expect any either, I use that file daily. The scissors work well, no snag, nice smooth cut. The locking mechanism is good and strong, very positive lock, no slipping. For the price I'll be keeping a couple as back ups and in my camping gear. If you need a multitool and you are on a budget definitely get this, for $40 bucks it's worth it.

I picked one of these up yesterday thanks to your video and I have to say, not only am I impressed, but the main blade was hair-shaving sharp right out of the box, which is much more than I can say about the leatherman skeletool CX I got for father's day.

I got my first wave in the mid 90's. I carry one nearly every waking hour and not a day goes by I'm not using it for something. In 2005 I used the screwdriver for a pry bar and snapped it. Sent it to Leatherman and even told them what I'd done. They didn't have the exact parts so they had to replace it, no questions asked. Lets see how this $40 wonder does after 20 years. If it's still in use I'll be impressed.

Always wanted a Leatherman wave. lookin forward to grabbing a Gordon 20 in 1 for $80 less.

My local Harbor Freight didn't have it. There's another store a little further south that supposedly did. I went down there, but the guy had no idea what I was talking about until I showed him online. Turns out they had some in the back. They hadn't even put them out yet.

Thanks to your video, I just ran to HF to get one. It was not on the shelf yet. Cashier went into the back and got one for me. I used the online coupon and got $4 off. After I paid, the cashier told me it has a lifetime warranty. Thanks for the heads up! Great review!

I've been waiting for something like this. Thanks Dominic.

The plyers on my multi tool is the Go To 80% of the time, I need to grab or twist things many days and this does it. The next item used is the Phillips head and lock up on this is needed, I have had non lock up collapse, no good. Good review, appreciate it.

just picked one up at my local harbor freight! I think its an awesome multitool! great alternative to a leatherman.. i only wish they would have to done a regular 1/4 bit set with these as well!

Definitely picking this up. As far as the warranty issue concerns me is that it’s less than half the price of the wave. I’ll buy three of the Gordon’s before the wave.

Thanks to your video I took advantage of the 10% off Memorial Day sale at Harbor Freight. Since the Gordon mutitool is a new product the staff didn't know where it was in the store. Lucky I came across who I would call the employee of the month and she found it 🎉. Cheers to you Dominic for being on top of this great find!

Waiting for the bits from HF.

Bought mine today because of this video... love it. It's on my belt.

What a impressive Leatherman wave clone wow

As a connoisseur of Leathermans, I’m normally loyal to this particular brand, but this Gordon definitely intrigues me. This is basically the only video that would even cause MacGyver to pleasure himself.

Was watching this , called HF they informed me they had 2 left, jumped upput my shoes on and drove 5 minutes. Hahaha i shoukd have ought all they had and sold them to my work buddies!!!

I really wish it had the regular universal size but driver like the Bibury does! Simply makes a thousand time more sense for easy access and replacement of bits!! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Just purchased mine about an hour ago with the 20% coupon. I collect tools for fun and I bought it cuz there are a lot of folks online that are raving about this tool. Figured I will have use for this in the future.

I will absolutely have to pick one of these up. And thanks to your other commenters, online rather than in person. Thanks for the tip!

Thanks for sharing! I just picked one up based on your recommendation! I just couldn’t justify the purchase price of a Wave on my budget. But so far, this a very impressive tool.

I brought my Harbor Freight Leatherman Gordon multi tool yesterday and I love it 😉👍.

I need to get one of these before the price goes up. Thats a killer deal.

Wow! Since my Wave is the original, it looks like I can upgrade to the current version (+ breaker and gut hook) for less than I spent on the original. Wotta bahgain!!

The Gordon, Biburry, SQT, and Workforce clones are probably the best Leatherman clones out there currently; if you were curious.

If they come out with the flat bit kit…. I’ll buy it to use on my Waves. This is a surprisingly good tool. Of course, since it copies what is also a good tool. Which tracks.

Love it. Love that it takes the bits. I love the bit system. Leatherman seems to be closing down their systems and tools so I'll take this any day. Also, you can buy an extended warranty on just about anything at Harbor Freight for $5-10

When they released the bearing 8cr knife I knew they were approaching. This is awesome!

Harbor Freight has a "no exclusions" 10% off coupon for this weekend too! I am gonna go grab one. I bought a Bibury Surge clone recently but theres no belt clip and I love the clip on my Surge.

I was on the fence about this. But with Roxon actually listening to feed back and the possibilities a Flex seemed like a better option.

I had a wave years ago and gave it a way in a weak moment. Regretted it ever since. Didn’t want to spend that much to replace it but you just sold me on this on. Hopefully it’s made of decent steel.

Am in need of the tool. This review is perfect for my purchase at my favorite store.

Walmart has a great mini, multi-tool in the camping and fishing dept. Around 10 bucks.

To bad they couldn't make 1/4 inch standred bits work in harbor freight version that would be amazing then any bit would work from every major brand

Just got a gordan.. made a few deadfall traps.. its pretty nice

The fact that the pocket clip comes on the tool is a win. The pocket clip for the Wave was like $13 after shipping since you can't get it in any store. A whole clone that looks to be the exact same for 1/3 the price is insane.

I was always a Leatherman fan. Have had ton's of models from the very first one and have never had to use the warranty once! That being said, the reason I have never had to use the warranty is that my biggest issue with multi-tools is loss or theft (mostly theft!). Therefore, the extended warrantees means didly squat. I buy the knockoffs now. Leatherman has gotten way too expensive even if the quality is a bit better. Heck, I prefer five cheap Chinesium 10mm wrenches in my toolbox, over one missing Snap-on now that respect for other people's property is so low.

Ive been wanting a Leatherman for years now but couldn't pull that $100+ price point. I went with Gerber based on the updated options for that price point but now I can't wait to go to Harbor Freight and get my hands on that Gordon multi tool clone! Especially with this weekends 20% coupon

I still have my original Leatherman. Haven't been able to justify the cash for new ones. Going to try this.

Had a Leatherman Wave, loved it, never rusted and retained a razor sharp edge very well. Others loved it too apparently cause it was stolen....i might give this a chance because $ is tight.

Saw this video this morning and went straight to HF. I had the same experience as you did when I asked about it. They thought they didn't have it, but they checked. Sure enough, they had five of them in the back and not out on the shelf yet. When the manager came out, he brought out two and told me that he was buying one for himself. The cashier said, "We have milti-tools now???" With the Memorial Day discount and some HF Money I had, I got it for $7! Compared to my Leatherman, I don't know which will be my daily carry. I might go back and get another one tomorrow.

That's an ideal survival multi-tool, and the magnet might be useful to magnetize a needle for a makeshift compass. An auger/awl would be great.

Just like Icon and Snapon. I’m buying one.

I have one of the original Letherman tools. It is an extremely dangerous tool. I have to say Gerber put them to shame with their first entry. Letherman, tools exit toward your grip, hand and fingers. Gerber, tools exit away from your grip to the inside of the grip. Don't know if that made any sense, but it sure is a whole lot safer to use.

Man. Just bought a Bibury last week. Should've have waited lol, I'm happy with the Bibury but this seems much better

Wow lots of bronze washers I like that my Leatherman surge is similar to the wave impressive Harbor Freight

Might have to pick one of these up. I typically lean towards light EDC. Have a Gerber arm bar that I love because of the full hex bit compatibility. I just don't use most of the tools on my full size multis

I got a Wave + for my wife a couple years ago. This Gordon and the Wave would be perfect if they added an awl. I have a Surge for my truck, and its got me out of a couple jams, especially with the bit kit, changing out a coil pack on the highway. I carry a Rebar for work. The large flat head broke, so I changed it out for Wave scissors. Almost perfect except for the fit/finish. I have a Victorinox Huntsman for hiking/ EDC.

I've been using and abusing a Wave for over 10 years, no issues, other than the blades are kind of soft and dull quickly. This looks like a good option to throw in the glove compartment in the car, or the toolbox on a boat.

I see this as a big potential for multitool modders. Reason being is, if you drop 120 on a wave, and then drop that much more on mods/custom tools for your wave; what benefit do you get from going with a genuine leatherman if you're just replacing everything on it? If people start making custom tools for this gordon multitool, you could probably work your way up to the cost of a stock wave, but end up with a customized tool that is exactly what you want, for much less total cost.

I'm impressed I'm going to have to go grab a few of these

A great beater for work. Can't wait for those coupons. Harbor freight should release a ratchet bit extender version.

The gut hook is a nice addition (especially if you use it as intended, ie, a gut hook for field dressing animals).

I live two blocks from a Harbor Freight. Since I need a proper multitool and don't own one, I will definitely be going with this Gordon Multitool.

The deep pocket clip compared to the Multiforce or the Leatherman is really nice. Keeps the tool completely in your pocket. And it comes very sharp which is appreciated.

I've never had a leatherman, always Gerber lol just because that's what we were always issued in the army for us mechanic's

I love how you love tools bro❤. I love them too lol . God bless, always informative.

Just ran out and got one on lunch. They didn't even have them out for sale yet. But brought me one from the back. I can't believe how similar they are. Great quality and It even has the hidden loop for a rope knot pull ./tether. .

Amazon has a ratchet that fits the driver. Its great.

Harbor Freight is a really neat store. You should do a budget guide just on Harbor Freight.

bought last one at my local HF. VERY IMPRESSED by quality and features. this puts Leatherman pricing insanity in proper context. And i hope HF develops a line of multitools of this quality. i'll buy at least one of each :)

Wound up with my own side by side with the Multiforce. Went to Walmart for some things this morning and for once they had a Multiforce. So, while not really needing it, I bought it. This one was $3 more than the Gordon.They could easily shave that price with a far less ridiculous packaging. They pose a bit of a conundrum. Both seem to be very well built and have basically the same tool set except for the micro bit. Personally I like the reverse end orientation of the OT. I also like the dual belt position of the OT sheath. The OT is not as stiff out of the box as the Gordon. The OT blade is sharper but the Gordon file is far and away superior. Scissors seem to be in a dead heat. The pliers and wire cutters seem to be on a dead heat as well. I happen to prefer the combination serrated blade and strap hook opener of the Gordon. I prefer the more standard bit driver of the OT. I see you have a disassembly video up so I'll watch that. Right now I'd use the Multiforce body with its bit driver, switch the serrated blades and the files. But for now I have the Gordon in the horizontal belt position in the OT sheath. My Gerber Multiplier is in my ATV tool box and the Multiforce will be at home in my pickup tool box.

I wasn't quite sure of the quality but this video sealed the deal for me! Going to have to pick one up.

I have the new icon knife. I have been presently surprised. Especially since my edc is civvi or benchmade. It holds an edge well and sharpens well on ceramic sticks. It is smooth on the open and close. Time will tell though. As far as a multi tool i have carried the same wave for 15+ years. It has never let me down. I'll probably try it but im not sure if it will have a home on my belt.

I love this I’m gonna pick one up the next time they send out a coupon. I went and got the multi force after your review and absolutely loved it and carried it daily over my wingman until I lost it at work. Love the reviews man keep it up

My pliers broke as soon as I used them. Looks like a bad heat treat. Will be returning tomorrow

Yeah my local harbor freight had to go in the back and find one for me too. Along with a memorial day coupon, I got it just for the 39 bucks and was very surprised how well it compared to my Leatherman's. Appreciate the review, I did not know the clip would come off that easily so now I am going to poke at it some more. :)

I'd like to see a Super Tool 300 and Rebar clone as they are my favorites.

Really happy with my SOG Powerpint.

I was never a fan of the extremely pricy Leatherman bits, so I took a cheap locking bit driver and ground the sides down to a perfect fit in the bit holder, drilled a hole matching the gap in the holder and now can secure it with a pin and use any regular bit on the market in my Wave for around 7$ and one hour of elbow grease.

Thanks for the video and the review. I had one of the original hand pinching Leatherman tools 30-40 years ago or however long it's been. Never was impressed that much with it myself, and I'm sure not going to give a $100.00 plus for one of the newer versions. I still have a Leatherman Mini tool which they brought out after the original. It's ok for what it is and that's a gadget to help get you out of a bind when you don't have access to a proper tool to do whatever job you're needing to do. From what I understand, that's why Mr. Leatherman originally designed the original tool for, he'd got in a bind somewhere and didn't have whatever tools with him to do the repairs needed to get him going again. I'll probably eventually buy one of these to keep on hand since the price is reasonable for what it is. Thanks for the video

I was in Harbor Freight today looking for wrenches. Happened to notice this on the way out. It was in a weird place a long way from the place they usually have knives, etc. It was the last one they had in the store. Out of curiosity I bought it. Looks pretty nice. As the day progressed I had chances to use it several times. Not at all sorry I purchased it. I'm a little torqued at Leatherman s it seems like their idea of improving their tools is to give us a $300 Wave supertool. They had the patent for however long and could think of no way to improve it. They need to get innovative or they will get passed up pretty quick at this rate. What I'd really like to see is a side by side with the Ozark Trail Multiforce. I like the idea of the OT use of their bit driver.

I lost my Leatherman at the airline gate and purchased a Mossy Oak, for around $35, about a year ago. If the Harbor Freight knife had been available (or I had known about it), I probably would have purchased it. However, the blades of the Mossy Oak seem a better alloy than Leatherman; it is easy to keep razor sharp, whereas I never could quite achieve that sharpness in my Leatherman. I also appreciate that the various blades and tools of the Mossy Oak open up out of either back of the knife, so the knife remains closed in use, except when the pliers are used. The Mossy Oak bit holder seems to be virtually identical to the wave and overall, I use my multitool many times a day, especially the knife blade, and I am completely satisfied with the Mossy Oak.

Well thanks to this video i picked up 2 this weekend. Very impressed, excellent product for the price! Thank you so much for the heads up!

Low key have the best looking packaging at harbor freight too.

I heard this was coming out so I went to Harbour Freight hoping they had bits, my precision screwdriver broke on my Wave and Leatherman's website was having problems and wouldn't let me make an order for a new one. They didn't (yet hopefully) so I just bought the tool. I carry the Wave daily and have done so for probably more than 10 years, my only gripe with it has been that the blade never felt as sharp as pretty much any other knife I own. The Gordon version feels sharper out of the box than the best sharpening I can do on the Wave. The difference in the steel is the reason and only time will tell if it holds up as good but I'm impressed.

Good to see. I broke a needle nose tip on my Wave and havent bothered to replace it cause they are now like a hundred bucks or more and the rest of the tool is basically brand new.. but since I mainly only use the needle nose, scissors and bits, i never carry it anymore.. but for 40$ I'll give this a shot! (a skeletool with scissors, some bits, and maybe a saw blade would be my perfect multitool)..
