Tell Us Your Tale

OK, you voyeur, you. Enough of reading other people's stories. It's time you told your own tale of gripping heroism or even just neat DIY'ism. We know there's a Shakespeare in you somewhere. Don't make us use the Steens to find it.

Blast is perfect

There is no end to the list of saves that my Leatherman have given me over the years. I farm full time and if I leave home without at least one of my 5 Leatherman Wave or Blast, I turn right around and head home to get it. I would wait until lunch time to get my cell phone.
 
Farming has changed quite a bit in the last few years. I find myself using these things for small electronic tweeks and repairs on tractors and irrigation systems, and on many bigger jobs that would destroy the average tool. I got my first PST for Christmas, 1987. I missed it when you stopped making it. But the Blast is the perfect upgrade. Over the years I've lost more Leathermans than I care to mention. If I had a triumph it would be the times that they have been recovered as much as a year later hanging on a piece of farm equipment having survived the previous planting season without falling off. It was like a lost pet coming home. Thank you for making a tool that I feel I can't live without. I can't say that about any other tool I own.
