I've got exactly the same sitting here on my desk. I was given it today for my birthday.
Nice piece of kit.

New leatherman incoming!

Multitool bracelet, 25 different tools that is able to be taken on a plane, the stainless one looks good. There is a watch that will fit to it as well. I think I would love to have one if I could figure out how to attach my G shock to it. Seem to be a touch pricey though at $200 (not sure if that is with the watch or without).

Looks like it will be $500-$600 with the watch, but saying that I still want one!

st a pineapple! $600!!!!

I think I might be waiting for a second hand stainless steel jobbie.

I do like it though, pretty sure there will be knock off copies to try and see if it gets any use before committing to the real thing

Has anyone tried a Leatherman Sidekick? my Gerber's screwdriver snapped last night and I've never been a fan of the blade (although brilliant to open) it's bloody difficult to sharpen

Carry it all the time and use it lots (i've sharpened the blade on my Gerber so much theres no serrations on it anymore!)

Edit: Had an early skeletool, which was great, but I don't want a serrated blade and it seems the non-serrated skeletools are stupid money now

I hear you and normally I'm a sucker for a bargain, I've just got no time to drive out to Canterbury and sort it.

If I had I would have been all over it!

Will post up some pics when it arrives withe the rest of my collection.

Sorry. Depends which case your going for. Might pop down for a surge myself tomorrow. Gave my last one to my father in law.

Tools and things like that seem to be a straight swap from pounds to dollars, if not less!

The dollar has taken a large boot in the bks over the last few weeks so things are not that much cheaper now. A leatherman wave is $90/£61plus local taxes at Walmart.
I can get it at go outdoors ,using the offer of price match minus 10% for just over £70. My Rev further up this page was £10 cheaper at Basspro in Orlando, than at go outdoors. Cheapest Surge I've just found is on amazon for $90/£61,i can get it again at go outdoors using the price match and 10% for a shade over £73. the saving are not that great frown
