You review like I feel somedays. It remains magnificent.

i cary a SwissTool RS in my belt for14 years now and have served me very well, outdoors and urban, built as a tank, no wear, no malfunctions, very happy with it. Bought two more for my daughter and my grandson.

I car camp and just throw the can of beans on the fire until it explodes

After years with Leatherman I got a swisstool some months back... I would never go back. My last Leatherman is in my range bag, but the Swiss tool is now my daily.

Whenever im feeling ...down, maybe even a little depressed, I come and watch your video's. Just to remind me some other dude *sounds* more depressed than me. And that makes me happier. Now hearty heart my damn comment!

Victorinox Swisstool 👍👍; Leatherman 👍. The original Leatherman Wave was much better than the current model. Nothing beats a Victorinox. If you are going to carry a multitool, carry the best - Victorinox!

I've had both tools Swiss and Leatherman for over 10 years and by far I prefer my Swiss.

Thanks for continuing to create videos. I enjoy the variety and appreciate the effort.

I’d like a crunch review sometime. A popular and broadly appealing object like that would get at least 800 lifetime views

I am new to this channel, but I already feel very sarcastic and grumpy. I like it :-)

The quality on the Swiss tool is unmatched. I had my SAK since 1985 and it is still going strong. When you open the tools of the Leatherman, having to open the pliers is annoying and then the rest of the tools bunch up. With the Swiss tool everything comes out smoothly and not interfering with any other adjacent tool. The craftsmanship is perfect on the Swiss tool!

The mini-pliers on Victorinox pocket knives is not a small version of a multi-tool pliers. It is light, close work, and even a super tweezer. Or power finger top. Hardly junk! In computer chassis and small enclosed mechanical or electrical devices they ate better then a clunky big MT pliers head. The Swiss Army SOLDIER KNIFE is officially used in a number of armies as a utility knife. Last year it went on the list of official procurable knives for US soldiers. Same as the Swiss model except oxide black coating and the letters 'US' on the scales. A number of armies have long experience with Victorinox knives. Utility pocket knives, bayonets, and multitools. Apples and orange! But otherwise A great review--thanks.

I live outside the USA, i live in Switzerland and the have had no problem with the Warranty on Leatherman tools, just send it back to the store i bought it from and got it fixt. Good service. Even Though i live in Switzerland i have neven seen anyone use a Victorinox Multi Tool, probably because it sucks, if you actually use the tool get a Leatherman.

Man, I love your humor! Great review. Thank you!

Love my Leatherman Wave. Love your reviews.

I have a Wave as potato bag in my house A Surge as potato bag at my truck console A ST300 and Charge + G10 at my belt for work Finally a Swisstool and Pioneer X at my belt for casual ...... Swisstool is more for general use. General hybrid pliers and tools, the precision is magnificent and they do that second blade like they know you carry a primary one (which I do : Buck 110 G10 Slim Pro SV35N) And Leatherman for people in USA is the work horse, more practical and pliers are electrical dedicated. I prefer the Swisstool pliers for mechanical bolts but Leatherman for tradesman Both are great...... Choose whatever you like more....... Is not gerber or SOG to say is trash.... LOL

You are the only creator that can make me watch a 10+ min. video about a multitool.

I am a barber, and I have used Leatherman scissors to get an errant hair here and there.

Hi from the UK. Really enjoyed the video. I purchased a Swiss Tool back in 1998 (no scissors included then). It is a superb piece of engineering. I have used it a lot over the decades and there is hardly a mark on it. It also came with a very high quality leather sheath, still in good condition today. I like Leatherman tools and own a few but the Swiss Tool has always been a firm favorite.

lol Leatherman can’t never beat Victorinox multitool. Leatherman and Victorinox both produce excellent multi-tools. But what are the differences between the two brands? Victorinox the finish is always good. Scales and tools are always nicely polished and all edges are nicely rounded. The adjustment of all moving parts is also great for almost all tools. This finish is the result of a special, secret process in the Victorinox factory. Not only does this feel great in hand, it also ensures that you rarely come across Victorinox multi-tools with rust stains. When you compare this to Leatherman you’ll see that different parts are often a little sharper along the edges. It also occurs that the tools are not as equally adjusted, or have a little more wiggle room. In addition,you come across rust stains a little more often on Leatherman multi-tools.Swiss quality against USA.Swiss- for one step up. Whichever of the two brands you decide to go with: both produce excellent tools.

I was a huge leatherman fan! But I was tired of having to send it in once a year for warranty, 11 years ago I bought a Swiss tool and have never had to send it in!

Without a QUESTION the Leatherman Surge does EVERYTHING RIGHT-EVERYTHING! The swiss tool X does everything with a PRESTIGE and refined look and feel, like a shiny DIAMOND with lots of BLING BLING, like in the movie blood diamond:) Polished at a jewelry store you will NOT want to REALLY use this SwiSS X:( Leatherman is a TIMEX and the Swiss TOOL a ROLEX! Every time the X tool comes out, people bow and stand back in AWE............carried EVERYDAY in a max pedition single magazine pouch custom fit is EXCELLENT :)

Awesome video as usual

I use my pliers for pliering and my scissors for scissoring. Knives are for knifing.

I carried a leatherman rebar for the longest time. Then I got a leatherman wave+ as an impulse buy. Now I’m carrying a leatherman juice s2 and I love it.

Thanks for posting all of the awesome and honest multi tool review videos - I watched them all, and read all of the comments (that took me a while!), and it helped me finally decide to get the black/silver Wave+ (rather than a Rebar, Charge, or one of the Victorinox multitools), as a gift for my friend, who might get a job either with the Coast Guard or a commercial sailing vessel. Now, I just have to decide which multitool I want to get for myself (it is between the Wave+, Surge, and Charge / Charge TTI), since I think it would be handy to have a versatile multitool on hand / in my toolbox, etc. to use around the house, in my car, on camping trips, etc. Maybe you could do a comparison video and highlight some more of the differences between those three/four? I know you prefer the Wave+, but it would be nice to see a really comprehensive, in-depth, side by side comparison/discussion of what seem to be some of the best of the Leathermans, and get some additional thoughts and recommendations.

Jesus, I’m dying! Great review!

Super review...

I laughted my ass of, awesome and funny review! Cheers!

I'm one of the 900 who watched your beer review. I also spied a Charge tti +. Nice! Pliered that like button!

File rides just fine behind the Surge in its holster. Love that one. Would consider a Wave probably but I am cheap.

You are a good script writer. I like your style.

I don't agree with your negative comments on the pliers of the standard 91mm SAK. Their purpose is different to the one of the pliers-based SwissTool. The former is meant to be a pocket knife while the latter is a multitool. What each set of pliers can achieve is obviously not comparable and both have their limitations, but that's because they're different tools, not because one is simply “useless". Every tool has its limitations.

just got a supertool and saw your review thanks and some of the jokes were hilarious.

I'm we with you bro, I love my Leatherman Wave 🌊

Great review! Love all the objective points of comparison. I’m happy with my SwissTool RS, but I’m an occasional user at best. The large scissors are outstanding and very functional. The serrated “rescue” blade is nice to have. The ruler is surprisingly useful - very handy. The smaller SwissTool Spirit X looks nice, being smaller and with a more ergonomically designed handle. I’ll be interested if you ever review one. Unfortunately in eschewing the flat handles for the nice curved design, the Spirit loses that great ruler.

I would like to throw in another Multi Tool I would love to see you review is the SOG Power Assist or the Power Lock. Those are my two favorite all things considered. Great review. I have never tried the Swiss Tools but I do have a new Champ.

I love these tools I just wish one of them had some sort of mini hammer tool or a spot on the tool that has a little extra heft to it for smaller nails. Thanks for the video! 👍

I found This victoriknox multi tool in the forrest Yesterday, Thank you to you that lost it 😊

Hot damn you do a good review. Subbed.

A good review! Knew nothing about that Swiss Version. I don’t actually have a bunch of Leatherman, really only one that I liked with needle nose pliers and a wire cutter I used for fencing projects

I am in Australia now, I do find swisstool with non locking blade option. Can you confirm how the blades are getting opened in non locking version, is it through slip joints?

Standard SAK pliers are the best tool ever for pulling splinter from monster wood splinter to tiny metal ones.

Nice review. I have a Swiss Army knife with pliers. I use them to pull nose hairs. I am listening to the podcast you were on too. Interesting.

I can't wait for a review of the Swiss Army.

Nice review. Worked with a guy on a site, that had that tool. I use the Rebar. Man, it sure pissed him off seeing that Leatherman every day..

Best channel

Great review! Thanks! Made me laugh couple of times.. Ha ha

Lol. Your humor and sarcasm makes your video more informative! You were terrific on Knifenuts podcast! You showed No sarcasm there. Just some boredom. Anyway that got me to subscribe here.

The Super tool can also take a bit driver adapter than fits over the phillips head driver.

In the end, which is better?

The large flat head w/ wire strippers is also a chisel 👍

Does it have a lateral play on pliers?

The Can opener on the leatherman is based on the model by Wenger. Another Swiss army producer that was bought by victorinox. So they could use this style of opener on their knives but they decided to use the less efficient

the can openers and awls in these can save you in a pinch with alternative uses in maintenance work I've found. as far as real work these tools are invaluable to have on your belt. The parts the get complained about aren't usually from anyone using them in the real world however. hobbyists, and "backpackers"

I love your reviews! You’re as hell. I have a swisstool and I hate it it just breaks thumb nails. Leatherman killed it with the Wave and Surge those are the tools I like.

I have victorinox swisstool military fin black bs and leatherman free p4 and i love them.😎❤️

Was going to comment on a brilliant joke you made, but got distracted.... if your review wasn’t so long I’d go back and listen again, but who has that kind of time?! Lol. Keep’m coming. 😁

I think the Swisstool needs 7 or 8 more flatheads

Didn't see a video from you on them but have you used or reviewed a Leatherman Style (CS or PS)? Strangely I keep seeing them paired with random Victorinox when I'm trying to snipe Victors on Ebay. Edit: I think I spot one during the (now outdated I'm sure) multitool collection shot.

Where did you get your fold up case that holds your mutitools? I need one I have waaay too many. lol..

The SwissTool is more or less standard in Europe. Official danish designation is “M11”, and it was introduced in 2011/2012, though the original press release is no longer available on the military webpage. Here’s another article about it translate.google.com/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fkrigeren.dk%2Fnyt-multi-tool-erstatter-den-rode-foldekniv-i-haeren%2F It replaced the old model. Foldekniv M/92, which basically means folding knife model 92, which was also a Victorinox knife, and probably a model that “no army anywhere would use” : goo.gl/images/cZcjo8

Interesting. I have has my swisstool for about 20 years. Mine does not have a file on it.

The swiss have a really good combo can/bottle opener that I'm pretty sure they have a patent on. You can find it on the victorinox compact. I don't know why they don't use it in their knives more often it's way better than having both the two knives and an extra layer on your multitool for no reason.

Those are some nice speakers you got there. ZLX 12’s? Do you moonlight as advanced dj bro on the side?

I would ask that you always add at least one thing to the review that is not directly related to the subject. Just to annoy the rivet counter out there. Epic AKB. Lovin the channel.

Leatherman warranty in Australia was awesome! I used it 5 times...bloody busted Leathermans, I could’ve bought another one with the postage I paid. Now, the warranty sucks and ain’t worth a pinch. I’ve moved to Swisstools now and sold my Surge. It gave me a limp.

I find using the can opener on my swiss army knife is faster because I always have it in my pocket, so I don't have to go find something I never use and the can opener on the knife is also easier to clean. The only time I ever use a real can opener is if I have more than 2 cans I need to open, which is pretty much never.

Now for a serious comment: thank you bro! I’ll point some European to why here in Murica we go for Leatherman!

I have got a swisstool from 1996. And i use it all the time. I can said than nothing is broken, even if i have made many many things with it. I recommand it to the people who whant to have a tool who is not a bullshit.

Great vid. I agree the Surge for the big manly dude, the Wave for the smart old man like me who understands the use of a multi tool can never be as good as using the right single tool. One thing I noticed you didn't say, well maybe I didn't hear it because I dropped my hearing aid in the middle of the vid. The Leatherman tools can be taken apart, whereas the Swiss tools can not be taken apart readily. That means you are at the manufacturer's mercy. I changed my knife on my Wave from the 420 to a 30V steel. Found the 30V knife on Ebay at a great price and changed it. Can't do that with the Swiss tools. I, like you, need psyche help when it comes to multi tools. I don't have as many as you do, because I became addicted to Sig Sauer and H&K, so I am always broke. I have about 15 multitools. My favorite are Leatherman, followed by Swiss, followed by the real Schrade (American made) and lastly SOG.

I wish they would replace the can and bottle opener with the combo opener in a bantam. Then maybe add an extra flat head with some tool

This guy is hilarious

I don’t know how to spell ‘genesequoi’, but I feel Victorinox has more of it than Letherman does.

Maybe you should look at the Victorinox Ranger 174 Handyman? Or the Boatswain

Still on the way to discover Victorinox large 111mm awesomeness.

Not a beer review but still very competent.

6:13, those aren't all flathead screw drivers. The bigger one is more of a prybar type deal and the one with the strippers on it is a chisel

Even though i have a bunch of multitools ,i like watching your reviews. “Never seen broken plierheads on swisstools because no one buys them “ leatherman free “ look around if everyone is watching and flip them open” 😂 raw reality with some humor spices 🤣

What's the swiss tool model you have in the review??

Hey, I have the mechanic! The pliers are more like jewelers pliers..... I use them when taking apart my laptop.

Would you happen to know if any of the Swiss tool models come equipped with a key 🗝🔑 ring 🤔?.

Carry a Wenger Soldier for the can opener mostly. Can open a can faster & cleaner. The one (or many) time one has to open a can made from inferior metal and leaves metal slivers to impale your fingers with you may understand the preference to a push-type can opener. Carry a modified Leatherman Charge TTi as well, as I needed an awl on board. Great multipurpose cutting for thing materials, like removed grips from bikes. replacing rubber on motorbikes, cutting other materials or boring holes through stuff that you should not be cutting with a normal blade with, and also great in repairing electrical sockets & fuses with. Awl is a fantastic tool for the person that wants or needs one. Problem with Leatherman is the only tool that covers all bases is the Surge, which weighs nearly a pound, and bends belts trying to EDC one. Way too heavy and bulky. Why Leatherman did not shrink the Surge down to a Charge or Wave size has perplexed me for many years. So every other tool Leatherman makes they leave out something. Every tool... Was debating about getting a Swiss Tool to EDC since am nearly fed up waiting for Leatherman to evolve, tool wise. Guess their idea is they can sell two tools to do what only one should. Have ordered spare Victorinox push-type can openers to see if I can fit one into the modified Charge TTi that I own. When I get the time, and if it works, I'll keep what I got. If not, and still temped, will get a Swiss Tool. Cannot find one tool that does it all with a decent warranty to boot. Modifying a tool to do what you want voids the warranty. So I carry a Wenger Soldier's knife & a Leatherman Charge TTi until I find an equinox multitool.

Holy 💩 that’s an impressive multi tool collection!!! It’s probably worth more than my 🚘

Multi-tools are nerdier than knives. I don't know why, but every tech nerd I know carries a multi-tool. Most of the non-tech nerds I know don't share whether they carry or not.

😂 😂 Awesome love your personality

As someone who’s been a Victorinox fanboy for the last thousand years, I am thoroughly offended by this video. Thanks, bro! 😃👍🏻 Now, I can finally get some sleep. Social Justice Warriors, unit! ✊🏻

Bro, you forgot the corkscrew. The Swisstool (all of the versions) come with a little hole on either side into which a detachable corkscrew (sold separately) can be inserted and used to open up a yummy bottle of rose. You can order a gigantic sheath that has a special place for the corkscrew, but, otherwise, you'd have to carry a weird detachable tool loose in your pocket with your condom from 1985 and breath mints. The sheath is about the size of 4 Wave sheaths rubber banded together. Anyway, there you go....a "secret" tool on the Swisstool!

The Swisstools have chisels, don't they? I think that's pretty cool. Don't think I've ever seen that on a Leatherman.

Do multi-tool reviews also reduce the JPM (jokes per minuted) rate or is that just me? I agree that it's serious business though. Knives, lights, and beer are fun, but multi-tools are for actually getting shit done. You should check out the SOG powerlock. I had the original powerplier for over 20years before it finally couldn't take the abusive relationship any longer and broke down. I sent some pieces of it back to SOG and then sent me a brand new powerlock as a warranty (lifetime) replacement. If what you do the most with your plier-based multi-tool is "pliering things" then this is far and away the best that I've used. If SOG wont lend you a demo, I'd send you mine to try out (it probably needs a vacation already).

Olight m1t raider next please 😊

Victorinox swisstool and spirit have the possibility to use all standard bits, no less, no more than leatherman wave surge. You buy the mini ratchet or mini wrench that fit in a specific shit.

You should do a review a Gerber center drive. Most important tools on outside, and hex bit center screwdriver and one hand opening. It's made in the USA so it's good quality as well.

Dude...check out the SAK Pro hunter

Could you do a review of the Wave Plus and a Mikkeller beer? (Or a Ærø beer or a Ølværket beer or.. ) We are quite proud of our beers in Denmark and it would be cool to hear what you think.

I forgot to make a witty comment the first time I watched this video this morning, but I got one now StOp PouRiNg ThE bEeR LiKe THaT

I'm looking forward to turning 40 in half a decade so maybe it will be acceptable to carry things like a multitool or, mainly, a phone on holsters on my belt. I don't think society would judge me too harshly, but for now, the wife has forbidden it. Oh, and I wanted to ask if those are your PA speakers and motorcycle. Are you currently going through a mid-life crisis you're not telling us about?

You mean the old Victorinox patent Wenger copied that LEATHERrMAN copied? The can/bottle opener is a Victorinox Patent that they stopped using back in the 1950s, when they switch to their current design that cuts away from user, doesn't pry jagged lid towards working hands and functions as a pot hook/scraper/small flat head and functional phillips head driver and allows for better recycling. Victorinox are pretty crazy recyclers from the steel, alox even the cellidor (organic plastic) they use - like the 'Patagonia' equivalent for knives only been doing much more for longer not that pratts care!

I have the victorinox rescue tool and the leatherman surge. While i think the victorinox is better made (finish), i vastly prefer the surge.

I am not a barber, but I still feel important. Thank you.
