After listening to Les Stroud tell us how he never goes anywhere without "a good multi-tool"; I decided I probably should pick one up. I got to looking at a few brands, mainley the Gerber and the Leatherman's. After narrowing it down to a few models, I decieded to go with the Leatherman "Blast". It seemed to be the best blend of features (that I would need) vs. weight. At 6.9 Oz, it has most of the stuff I think you would need, and is 2oz less than the "Wave", and 5oz less than the "Surge".
I have been wearing it on my off hip and I forget it's even there.

What Multi-tools are you guys wearing / using?
Here's a pic of the "Blast"

I bring a LM Charge Ti when out in the field (camping, hiking, etc), though I don't wear it. My fullsize Rittergrip is clipped to my pocket when in the field (the mini Rittergrip takes its place for EDC), and then I alway bring a daypack containing, amoung other things, the LM Charge Ti and my fixed Rittergrip. Usually there also an Estwing Sportsman's axe (hatchet) and an 18" collapsable Trailblazer Buck Saw are also stuffed into my duffle.

I have an old school Gerber I've been packing around off and on for the past 10 years now. It was my first real knife I've ever owned, bought it shortly after joining the Scouts.

I bought it so long ago I don't remember the model name, but here is a pic of the multiplier 600, which is pretty close to what I have.

Welcome Stranger,

I still carry my Leatherman original Supertool. Tried a Surge, it was just too big. I may go for the new model Wave, as soon as Costco or some other discount place has them at a decent price. I carry mine all day, every day, and use at least one of two of its tools daily...

Leatherman Wave and Squirt as EDC

i prefer the swisstool and the swisstool spirit, they are in my opinion the most well build tools out there. All tools lock and are accesibly from the outside. They have well designed handles, making them very comfortable, without adding the bulk of zytel liners.

I have a Gerber similar to Rio's. Just like him, I've had it so long I don't know what model it is. Mine is black with blunt nose pliers.

I often look at other models, and even other brands, thinking I might need an upgrade, but I just like the feel and function of the Gerber.

I would recommend a SwissTool as well. I have had them all, more or less and the SwissTool is IMO, the best on the market.\

Another vote for the Swiss tool.
The Surge (Leatherman) a close second.
Have tried them all.
SOG makes a fine tool as well.
But the Swiss tool is my EDC.
Also carry a folder as well,goes without saying right ?

A Leatherman Wave is always on my belt.
