You be the judge…
I have had my Leatherman Wave Multi Tool for almost four years now (I got it for a birthday, not Father’s day
), and it ranks up as one of the most used tools I’ve ever had.
I work in the trades, mostly running heavy equipment installing underground utilities, and my Leatherman is on my side every hour of the working day. It gets used (and sometimes abused) and has never let me down.
I break out my Leatherman whether I need to open man holes, cut wire, pull wire, cut pipe, work on my machine…you name it, the list goes on and on. There have been many times when other tradesmen have gone to their van to get a tool, only to return to find me doing the job with my Leatherman Wave.
The knives are locking, and easy to resharpen (even if you’ve used your blade as a mini shovel – I told you I abuse it!), and they hold their edge for a reasonable amount of time.
I have even found myself wearing my Leatherman when the wife and I go shopping. Thinking to myself (probably in some MacGyver type of fantasy) that if something happens to the car, my Leatherman’s all I’ll need to get us back home!
The only draw back that I have found is that the phillips/flathead screw driver bit easily comes out of it’s socket, to be lost forever (I’ve had to get a few replacements myself), so tell Dad to watch and make sure his bit stays in place!
The Leatherman Wave Multi Tool really is a handy and remarkable tool. It is easy to use, and comes with a lifetime warranty, so you know your Leatherman’s got quality workmanship, and is built to last.
So if your dad is resourceful, self reliant and loves to be prepared, the Leatherman Wave Muti Tool is definitely for him!
Happy Father’s Day!

P.S.- As of this post, you can get the Leatherman Wave from The Hot Gift Guys for $20 less than my Mom bought mine for in the Big Box Store!
P.P.S – Opt for the Leather sheath – as hard as I am on mine, it’s still in one piece.
