The Juice CS4 is designed for people with smaller hands, and is only 3.25” long when closed. Moving into a smaller, but still full-sized, Leatherman tool, we come to the Juice CS4. Also, at this price it’s a bargain. Sure, you won’t be getting all the practicality of the Wave or Charge TTi but it’s got you covered in most situations. The real attraction here is portability as the Skeletool can easily fit onto your keychain and goes unnoticed in the pocket. This multitool has a belt clip but unfortunately, does not come with a standard sheath, so you’ll have to buy one as an optional accessory. The light 5 ounce weight makes this the lightest full-size multitool on the market. The body of the Skeletool is manufactured of stainless steel, with 6061-T6 aluminum handle scales. Add on Leatherman’s optional 21 double-ended bit kit, and you extend the possibilities tremendously. The Skeletool also includes a carabiner/bottle opener and a large bit driver. The combination knife is partially serrated and made of 420HC stainless steel. This is Leatherman’s most recent model and is packed with needlenose pliers, regular pliers, hard-wire cutters, and regular cutters. Best price we found on the Charge TTi.Īt number three is the Leatherman Skeletool, a lightweight 5 ounce multitool with 7 tools in a 4”, mean-looking package. If you have the money go for it, otherwise stick to the Wave. But is all this worth an extra $40 or so? Not in my opinion. It has a couple of extra tools and the titanium handle is superior to the stainless steel. The Charge TTi includes a replaceable pocket clip and quick-release lanyard ring, and features premium sculpted titanium handle scales for great comfort.īasically, the Charge TTi has a better blade, comes with a better sheath and a bunch of bits and is overall a little lighter than the Wave. There is also a wire stripper and a crimping tool. Next up, the needlenose pliers also serve as a regular pliers, wire cutter, and hard-wire cutter. You also get a medium screwdriver, two files, scissors, a saw, and a can/bottle opener.

It includes a high quality S30V steel knife and a 420HC serrated knife with cutting hook, as well as both a small and a large bit driver with a small selection of bits. The Charge TTi is a feature-rich multitool in a light, 8.2-ounce package. Best price we found on the Leatherman Wave. If you’re unsure what to buy, get this – you won’t regret it. Don’t get me wrong, Leatherman has higher-end models for those with money to burn but the balance between features, quality and cost is just about perfect with the Wave. There’s a reason this has been Leatherman’s most popular model for over a decade – the design is ingenious, the quality is outstanding and the value for money is unrivalled. You can get your Wave in plain stainless steel or with a cool looking black oxide finish. This multitool weighs in at 8.5 ounces, and measures 4” long and 2” thick. The Wave is constructed of 100% stainless steel, and includes a lanyard attachment and a leather/nylon sheath. It includes 2 pliers, wire cutters, two 420HC knives (one of them is even serrated), a saw, scissors, a wood/metal file, a diamond-coated file, 2 drivers, a bottle opener, 2 double-ended bits, and more. The Wave is now a full-sized multitool with 17 tools crammed into a superbly designed body that is small enough to carry. Of course, I’m talking about the New Wave which replaced the original Wave in 2004 and has ruled the multitool kingdom ever since. The vast majority of consumers should look no further than the Leatherman Wave. So, without further ado, here’s my list of the top 10 multitools. Take it from me, all you need is Leatherman. Their 25-year no-questions-asked warranty says it all. Since Tim Leatherman built his first multitool and created Leatherman Tools in 1983, the Leatherman company has continued to innovate and demonstrate unrivaled quality. Leatherman is the undisputed king of multitools and simply unmatched in my opinion. You may be surprised to see that they’re ALL made by Leatherman– but you shouldn’t be. In this article I will show you the absolute ten best multitools on the market today. Nothing comes close to a quality multitool when you need sheer sturdiness and practicality in an EDC form factor. Still, there comes a time when you need more than a one or two blade folder and since I was introduced to the world of multitools in the late 80’s I’ve been a fan ever since. As a pocket knife enthusiast I spend most of my time collecting, reviewing and of course using folding knives from today’s major brands like Spyderco, Benchmade, Kershaw, Buck and CRKT.
