Leatherman

I use a Wave.

Why? It's got all the tools I need (knives, scissors, pliers, screwdrivers, can opener) and it doesn't have a lot of junk I don't need. Because I've carried the same one for something like 5 years now (and a standard Leatherman model for a decade before that) and it's never let me down.
 
I carry a Micra all the time and a Wave when I'm not at work. The wave is laid out better than most and has a diamond file. I very handy tool to have. My wife is always impressed when we are out on a hike and require some type of tool. The wave seems to always have one attached. She calls it the majic tool box.:)

I carry the Standard b/c it was given to me...Good multi-tool. All of the Leathermans are tough and designed well- although I am looking at a Wave or similar because the blades can be opened without opening the whole thing.
 
I carry a micra every so often. Always carry a folder with me, I've never had a real need for a leatherman. Not saying they aren't great tools, just that my life doesn't require the tools it has to offer. I'm fine with a good blade. It usually sleeps in the junk drawer.
 
I have the super tool. Has everything that I could even think of using.
 
i'm a big fan of the GERBER multi tool. i always carry a folder of some sort but when i'm at work theres alot of litte maintenance jobs it'll handle without breaking out the big toolbox. the plier design of the gerber is the best of the bunch as far as i'm concerned.
 
I have no idea what I have or were they are.
One is a small one with scissors instead of pliers
Other one(s) ( maybe I have two of these, dunno) has pliers and other stuff.
Seems I took these out of the package, wiped them off with Singer Sewing Machine oil, wrapped back up in wax paper and forgot about having them until just now.

I won these or given to me as gifts.
 
SOG Powerlock Multi-tool for me. And it comes in a nice leather sheath. I also have a Gerber, but the SOG is much better quality, and easier to use.
 
Super tool for me. Gets used almost every day for the last 2 years and has held up very well. I have a Gerber Suspension also but I have not used it much. The Gerber is fairly new and the tools are relatively difficult to open so I still use my Leatherman.
 
a bud borrowed my leatherman , I am left with the Kershaw multitool , but its too big to carry so it stays in the range bag.
 
Another Wave user here. I added the extra bits also, picking just the most common ones to carry with the Wave. They fit all my scope mounts, grip screws, etc. Great tool for it's size. I carry mine everyday, everywhere. I keep an old model Wave in my car kit.

(Check my sig line for a chance to win a Leatherman!)
 
I know this doesn't exactly answer your question, but when I do carry a multi tool its the Gerber.

Me too - I started carrying Gerber long ago because I could use it one-handed while fishing. Then the owner of Leatherman came out for Kerry during the elections and I decided he could keep his tools since he voted for a tool. :)
