First, I needed a new pair of pliers, and then. . .

". . . long story short, I wound up at the Leatherman site. I'm a site manager for an artist cooperative housed in a historic Saint Paul warehouse, and I realized the Surge had the exact tools that I often need for quick fixes on the fly. Like many Leatherman reviews, I found I had use for it immediately right out of the box. Brilliant design and a real pleasure to use."

Purchased for my Son in Law

"My son-in-law is an Engineer and the VP of his company. I observed him checking my Leatherman out; mine is designed for Explosives. I figured that for his promotion to VP, I would get him the Surge; my daughter said he just loves it. As an executive, he still likes to get out in the field with the Bridge design and construction; he loves to carry the Surge and use it whenever he can. We both know that Leatherman is the leader and originator of multi-tools and quality design. We can’t say enough! Thanks, Leatherman, for another great design."

Great gift

"I gifted this to my husband for his first Father’s Day. He is an electrician and does so much handy work around the house. He was raving to me the other day that he hasn’t had to carry around any other tools because it does all the tasks he needs around the house."

"I like the versatility of this product. The black coating scratches easily. The first time I used it, I set it on my truck console. Just from bouncing around on the road for an hour covered the entire tool in silver scratches.Would have been nice if that was noted before ordering. For the cost of this tool, the coating should be more durable."

Very disappointed

"Got this for my husband for a Father’s Day present. He used it once and broke. This is the 3rd or 4th one that has broke after minimal use. Very disappointed in the quality."

It was a gift

"Only inspected the exterior for customized laser etching but will go over it after some use when available to do so, the scissors on my Surge got loose but not too concerned yet, might gracefully smack pivot point with a hammer"

Leatherman Surge

"This is my second leatherman tool. Started a new job with town maintenance and was looking for more than my original leatherman tool. Thus one has been great so far when needed."

Lasted less than 2 weeks before pliers broke

"It has great options and accessories but the plier part snapped off while trying to pull a screw."
