WHO IT'S FOR

Anyone who wants a full-sized multi-tool that does it all. For some, the Wave Plus will be the perfect-sized EDC. For others, it might be better in a backpack or everyday carry kit.


WHY WE PICKED IT

The Wave Plus is our all-time, international bestseller. It was designed by our CEO Ben Rivera and is one of the most beloved multi-tools in Leatherman history. If you’re looking for one multi-tool to do it all, you need not look any further than the Wave Plus.

This fan favorite traces its lineage to our original Leatherman® PST from the ‘90s. It has been updated based on years of design by our top engineers and feedback from our customers. Whether you want it as your go-to tool for every day, or just want an all-around multi-tool for (almost) anything, the Wave Plus is a favorite for a reason. Home, work, or hobby, the Wave Plus has the 18 tools to make you a multi-task master.

#3

Skeletool® CX

The Minimalist EDC
|

HIGHLIGHTS:

  • Sleek, minimalist utility
  • 154CM stainless steel straight blade
  • Includes only essential tools like pliers and bit driver
  • Removable, low-profile pocket clip
  • Available in multiple colorways

WHO IT’S FOR:

Anyone looking for a lightweight, low volume everyday carry, pocket knife or multi-tool with essential capability.


WHY WE PICKED IT:

Skeletool CX packs the most essential tools into a sleek, smart package. We chose the CX over other Skeletools because of the premium 154CM stainless steel straight-edge blade. This upgraded steel has a great balance of corrosion resistance and toughness. This makes the Skeletool CX a great pick for an everyday carry knife. But, of course, it’s more than just a knife. The pliers, bit driver, and wire cutters will come in handy more often than you expect.

A minimalist, modern look matches up with what you wear to the office, and this multi-tool won’t take up a bunch of space in your pocket. Choose from multiple colorways to suit your personal style. The Skeletool CX has everything you need and nothing you don’t.

#4

Free® T4

The Pocket Problem Solver
|

HIGHLIGHTS:

  • Compact and lightweight
  • FREE technology for one-handed opening of all tools
  • Available in five color variations

WHO IT'S FOR:

For those looking to step up from a basic pocketknife and don’t need pliers or full-size features.


WHY WE PICKED IT:

Designed with everyday carry in mind, the FREE T4 features a signature design and epic haptics—all tools lock into place with a confident, reassuring click. Of course, everything is one-hand operable (with the exception of the removable tweezers). The FREE T4 is made from a durable combination of 420 stainless steel and glass-filled nylon. Ideal for EDC, the FREE T4 is a high-functioning tool in a convenient, packable size.
