and desperately needed any of the extra tools that come with a leatherman. I guess it could see how others might need that option, though.

I also worry that I might be called to be a scoutmaster if I buy another really nice/expensive multi tool.

Why Gerber?

SandYFan

why not?

It's just that the pricing seems the same. Why use a brand I've never heard of?

Gerber is what I use and I have had no issues.

Gerber is a great knife brand and the flick motion of their tool is why

Take a look at Gerber, as well. Both very high quality.

What are the differences?

SandYFan

There are a few here who could answer that much better than I, but I bet that

Hmm I do not have a motorcycle, but that seems handy.

Also, just walking around with it gives you instant 'cred' in certain places

It's difficult to tighten a bolt with a pocket knife.

Do you take pliers camping?

jdub

8/29/14 2:09pm

I take everything camping. It's likely moving...but just really short term.

8/29/14 2:12pm

I had a leatherman and used everything but the knife. I should have busted
