Leatherman 934870 40 Bit Assortment with Nylon Sheath Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I am a paratrooper in the United States Army and I use a multi-tool every day.I have been issued tools from Leatherman, Gerber and SOG and all have their good points as well as bad.

The SOG rusted quite easily after being exposed to perspiration in Afghanistan.It was also not easy to expose the blades in the handle.

Gerbers worked well, but the screwdrivers were not beveled well.Also the bottle opener was so short that it was difficult to open a cold Sam Adams.

This assortment of bits works extremely well.I have never been a fan of leatherman multi-tools because of some poor design flaws in the early leatherman models.Specifically the original Leatherman tool was pretty hard on your hand when using the pliers. The "blades" were on the outside when the pliers were in the open position. If you ever had one, you know what I mean.

Leatherman corrected that with the Wave series by contouring the handles, but the bevel on the screwdriver (flat head) left much to be desired.

I used several Gerber models and was pretty satisfied with them (except for the LEDEND model.....no can opener) Gerbers also will pinch you if you are not careful when using the pliers.

The Victorinox Swisstool is built well, and with MINIMAL care will never rust.The blades are sharp and their placement is well thought out.It has rounded edges in all the right places and as such is comfortable in your hand.It will never pinch you when using the pliers.

I got a Leatherman XT-i as a gift and found it to be well made and comfortable to use. With the addition of this bit kit it should be even more functional.The bits seem to be well made and durable.I still find myself carrying my swisstool more often than the Leatherman, but that is out of 6 years of habit. I'm not ready to retire the Swisstool, but I will give the leatherman a chance.

I also put the bits I thought I would use the most on one card and carry that in the belt sheath that the XT-i came in.That seems to work well.
