I just tackled a 2 hour job with this awesome tool.I was very surprised how versatile it really can be.One thing I do have is the bit set and that helped with the allen wrench fitting I needed.

I say this with the bit set and your good to go for most jobs.

Only downside for me was no sheath included.

Im kind of a tool geek and usually carry a pocket knife plus...When I bought this I knew what I was getting.What I did not anticipate was the time it took to open the Crunch.Leatherman products are the best hands down but if you want a one handed speedy tool,this is not it!

LEATHERMAN Fuse Black Oxide with Cap Crimper Black Nylon Sheath Model 830475 Review

LEATHERMAN Fuse Black Oxide with Cap Crimper Black Nylon Sheath Model 830475
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
First things first, the pliers on the Fuse do not have a "cap crimper" even though the description above suggests otherwise.For those who want this tool for EOD purposes this function's omission may be a big deal.However, if you are not going to use the cap crimper it is best not to have one because it makes the plier tips more susceptible to structural failure (a problem SOG has solved).Also, as a side note for those looking for a knifeless Fuse w/ a black oxide coating: Leatherman does not make one, so don't believe internet sites that claim to sell them.

Overall, I really enjoy carrying this multi-tool.The blade comes nearly razor sharp and is almost as long as the handle (Leatherman knows how to optimize the use of free space).All the implements lock tight and are easily unlocked.To make things even better, the reach of the flathead and Philips drivers is extraordinary, very useful if you work on electronics (this is one of the main reasons my Leatherman Juice S4 sometimes finds itself sitting at home while I go out).Further, the finish holds up fairly well, though other metal instruments such as keys tend to scratch it.

If you are one who is trying to decide whether to purchase a Fuse or a Kick, definitely pick the Fuse: it has locking implements, an upgraded plier head (same as on the Wave and Charge TTi), scissors, a longer blade, and comes in black.The only advantages the Kick has is price (however, there's only a $10 difference between the satin finish Fuse and Kick) and the possibility of adding a pocket clip.The Fuse is the better choice by far.

In this item's decription it states:

Technical Details
Works with Core, Surge, Charge, Wave, Blast, Fuse and Kick

I have a Blast and this was a gift for my father, who has a Charge. This adapter doesn't work on either of our tools. The one that works is called the "Universal Adapter" instead of the "Stadard Adapter".

Product Description:
Leatherman tools came about as Tim Leatherman, founder of Leatherman Tools, traveled abroad. Leatherman traveled abroad in a 1969 Fiat. During their travels it was discovered that the car was cranky and had leaky pipes. Leatherman conceived of the idea of a pocket survival tool. He worked in the basement of his home to create this tool. He wanted a tool with full size pliers with a pocket knife. Leatherman created the multipurpose tool calling it Mr. Crunch to which he received a patent for this. Sales grew and Leatherman introduced another tool. This one has more features with all locking blades. Then Leatherman decides to go small. The ultra tiny micra becomes and remains the category's top seller. Be sure to check out the Leatherman Surge Multi-Tool with Black Nylon Sheath. With these features, plus Leatherman's strongest scissors yet, Surge is sure to make a splash at the work site. The Leatherman Charge XTi Multi-Tool with Premium Nylon Sheath. The perfect tool for the most ambitious outdoorsman or the most demanding professional. And look at the Leatherman Removable Bit Driver with Black Nylon Sheath. Very convenient and easy to tote.

Leatherman 830427 K502x 3.1"strt/nyl Pocket Knife W/bit Driver Review

Leatherman 830427 K502x 3.1'strt/nyl Pocket Knife W/bit Driver
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The K502x is a great knife.It is that simple but I'll give you some pros and cons

Pros:
Fits really well in your hand when it is closed and open.
Rubber grip prevents you from slipping when applying alot of force even with sweaty hands
Since the knife has a 154 CM blade it can be sharpened to dangerous proportions.I've gotten it sharp enough to shave with using a water only fine grind stone.
The screw driver provides excellent torque and bits stay snug while in use.
The thumb nub provides perfect leverage for opening using only your thumb.(however it is only right handed)

Cons:
The back of the blade is a sharp as an ice skate.So watch out when using the thumb stud to open the blade if you finger slides along the 90 degree edge it probably won't cut you but it will leave a mark.
The bits stored in the handle move a but but don't fall out.But I imagine as the knife gets old they could possibly fall out.
The rubber is not as durable as I would like but it has lasted so far with only loosing a little piece of the corner after someone used my knife as a hammer.
The 154 CM metal is not rust proof.The blade should be oiled regularly and kept dry if possible.
The belt clip is designed for thicker belts.With my braided cloth belt the knife has come loose while running.

Again overall this is an amazing knife.I'd buy another one if the one I have ever wore out, after its 25 year warranty. :-)

Winchester 22-01347 Small Wood Handle Tool Review

Winchester 22-01347 Small Wood Handle Tool
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I got this tool for free with another (Gerber) multi-tool. I would not buy this tool for much money.

If you want a folding pair of small needle-nose pliers, this is a pretty good choice. The motion is smooth, the machining is fairly precise, and the spring-loaded action is really handy. The pliers are indeed small; they are suitable for items no more than 1/4 inch (8mm) wide. The handles are an adequate 2.5 inches long, and while they are not quite level with one another, it's no big deal. Pliers feel quite strong, with minimal flexing.

The large straight screwdriver is poorly made, with a rounded-off instead of perfectly straight shape. The can and bottle openers are abnormally shallow. The serrated blade is very thick but not very sharp. The straight blade is tiny and not sharp. The cross-head screwdriver is tiny, like a sub-#1 Philips but more vaguely shaped. The nail file looks and feels like a student project. In short, none of the fold-out tools is of a quality to match the pliers and handles -- they say "made by the lowest bidder in China".

The wood accents on the handles are attractive and feel good, but they do make the handles surpringly thick -- about 18mm at the thickest point.

For the pliers and appearance, I would give 4 stars. For the other built-in tools, I would give 1 star (a failing grade).
