Here's my New model Leatherman Surge. Just £74.50 from Gooutdoors. Bargain,cheapest that i could find it for in the uk. Not enjoying the leather case though.

I fully agree regarding the leather case. Wish I could make something like this...

That was fascinating. I would love to be able to collect all my EDC items together and ask him to make a case to fit them. The case that came with my Charge is rubbish. The elasticky bits are just not up to the job. And I'd want to hang it horizontally off my belt too.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FK8t7y3hxjM
There are a few people selling custom cases on Etsy but none of those shown really float my biscuit.

Not a Leatherman but I've just ordered a Gerber Suspension from Amazon.
At 20 quid delivered it would have been rude not to
I bought one as a post Christmas present to me and have genuinely used it almost every day since. It's almost invaluable for the type of work I do and all seems to work well and feel fairly solid and well made. Knife is sharp, pouch sits on my belt nicely and I can't really see how spending £30 extra for a leatherman would have really given me anything better.At 20 quid delivered it would have been rude not to

Yes... The ones on Etsy are okay but I don't think they are the same quality of the one in the YouTube clip. There are a few people selling custom cases on Etsy but none of those shown really float my biscuit.
I'm half tempted to buy some leather working tools on eBay and have a go myself... Only half tempted though!

I don't need one. At 20 quid delivered it would have been rude not to
Can't believe something so good/solid can be bought delivered for about £20.
People always think I've spent a load on their present too!

This is my default gift now when buying someone a birthday present.

I bought 3 ages ago £20 in a pack with a headtorch, gave the head torches away. I don't really rate the suspension when the leatherman wingman is only £35.Can't believe something so good/solid can be bought delivered for about £20.

I do keep a modified suspension (knives removed) in the car but I have been meaning to switch it out for a wingman.
