New multitool, halp guise

I have the Surge and love it. It's endlessly expandable because it can take any t-shank saw blade, which means you can do basically anything with it. Go with one of them, and you won't regret it.

Love mine too, other than i fucked up the cutters by cutting steel springs, but good thing these are replaceable.

I have been considering a new multi tool. I carry a knife all the time and never have liked using one on a multitool. So I'm looking at knifeless models. There are basicly two options. Gerber 600 or leatherman rebar. Neather has a bit driver that i would prefer. So I'm think the 600. Cost much less, is black, has the weird saw blade that might be cool. Anyone know another I should consider?

ok guys, i appreciate leatherman and im sure it's great but, considering my requirements, brand elitisms aside, is it really THAT far forward from the competition?

>>34892012
No, but as long as it's better than the competition, why is anything else important?

Get a Surge. I have one, and I'll have another if I lose this one. This isn't brand loyalty. I don't give two shits if something's made in the USA (not American). I just carry what works for me.

Get a Surge or a Wave.

right, so you bumped me back to where i was before, leatherman surge.
I have a couple of questions regarding it.
Does the opening wear off? will it get very lose?
how much can i trust the liner lock for the main blades? i heard that might be a concern?
What about the black oxide finish? if i understand correctly the steel is all stainless just the same and the finish is just an extra? correct me if i'm wrong
I do not live in burgerland, will leatherman still honor the warranty? even if i dont get it direct from them? (would like to but they wont ship outside the US, correct me if i'm wrong) how hard is it to find replacements and accessories outside burgerland? Prices? pocket clip at the very least is a must

Thanks in advance

this havalon would be my choice, it uses replaceable scalpel blades. I dont need a shitty little knife on a multitool since i always have a proper knife on me anyway

I already have a leatherman and victorionox, but I want something with a bit driver, which I believe the havalon has.

SOGs look like quality, but I haven't handled one

Gerber is trash.
>with a possible exception to the overpriced MUT one

>>34892525
I had no idea about havalon desu, it looks interesting! i like the carabiner feature (liked it on leatherman MUT and Signal as well) would you recommend havalon for a starter?
BTW, i agree on having a dedicated blade as well, but everything i have ATM is fixed blade, any robust folders you would recommend for EDC?

I've carried mine for about 8 years now. When it finally dies, I'll be happy to buy another one. Anything other than a surge is a mistake imo.

the best lethermans made where the classic ones.
You can still find them on ebay.
right size/weight to utility and nothing fancy.

>>34892581
depends on what kind of work you intend to be using it for, I haven't bought the havalon yet for a couple reasons
>only recently found out about it
>looks a little light duty
>cant spare the cash right now

price and size range on a folder?
for the absolute best price/performance I'd recommend the smaller framelock crkt drifter, specifically NOT the large version, they use dif steels, the small one has 8CR14Mov that is better than AUS 8 from kershaw and cold steel.
I've used it for heavy shit like prying up 10d nails, leveraging doorframes, opening paint cans, hammering nails, baton and full chiselling with an actual hammer on wet lumber, and other shit you really shouldn't use a knife for (especially a folder) and I fully expected it to break or chip because I got it for $20.
It's never chipped, lockup is still perfect, and blade centering hasn't changed.

the only other folder i have worth mentioning is the CRKT Amicus I just got, its a fucking tank, and the design is perfect for a harder use/outdoor knife, but there's a lot of little things about it that piss me off.
>pivot pin is bullshit, doesnt lock (like if you loc-tite the threads, the barrel will free spin when you try to adjust or disassemble)
>too tight to flick open for a decent lock up
>loosen pivot for easier opening, gets you sticky 100% lock up, close knife and blade clicks on the side
>sharpening grind was done by a downie with one eye closed
>fucking aluminum backspacer sticks out like its intended to be a hammer, but its fucking aluminum

I need to grind down the show side scale (red) for lock access because its impossible with gloves
gonna stake or do a small weld on the pin (green) so it doesnt suck so much
need to get better washers because theones that come with it are thicc teflon which I'm almost certain contribute to the shitty centering.
>but i got it for 50% off from amazon so, idk ymmv. its a good knife?

So, i think i'm getting a stainless surge, those bit kits in your edc pic, i didnt know they exiated, might be a deal maker for me
>>34892821
I'm not doing any physical work desu, i just want it for peace of mind, potential use if i need to fix something and potential self defence. I live in Barcelona, we just lost our jihadi virginity today and we are not allowed to carry guns (and technically not knives either, but luckily police are far cooler than politicians with these things) and i want SOMETHING.
I'll start looking into low pro body armor too (i have military grade body armor cuz sperg collector, but that obv wont cut it for edc) ik it's off topic but if you know about that pls let me know as well.

Mikov predator with pocket clip

Automatics are uber banned in here.
Besides, that's fucking expensive, would rather take my chances concealing my AKM bayonet under a jacket XD (would be my go to choice, not even kidding, if the heat here wasnt so unbearable)

>>34893015
>autos are banned
since when? I bought a mikov and a butterfly in Lloret de mar back in 2009
check out Lamnia.com, I'm pretty sure they don't sell anything shitty
