Wonderful quality, one hundred percent satisfied!

Chose a gift for DR. At first I chose wave plus, somehow charge plus was associated only with "titanium pads" and "expensive" charge plus and wave plus. Yes, and the cover of the wave, it seems, will be simpler.

Pros
  • The mechanics are good, the blades are sharpened normally, the tool feels like a thing. Quite compact. The presence of a clip and ring for the sling in the kit, as well as a set of branded bits. Nylon pouch with a pair of inside pockets and side pockets for a screwdriver extender
Cons
  • No warranty card! 25 years manufacturer's warranty without a warranty card is not valid. There are shells on one sponge of the nippers, but that’s a trifle - you can fix it on a stone

Unsuccessful purchase, I am disappointed.

I purchased this tool on 03/06/2023. Outwardly, and indeed the thing is fire. There are surprisingly a lot of bits in the kit, as many as 9, which by the way is very strange. They alerted the Chinese stickers and the fact that there is no guarantee. , they say they left 2022. The guarantee is only from the store and this is one year. For this money it is doubtful

Pros
  • Multitool is certainly cool, but there is a BUT
Cons
  • No guarantee

Reliable purchase, guaranteed to be a good purchase.

Before that, from the large multi-tools there was a ganzo with a set of bits. He is certainly very strong and heavier than one and a half times. I had to part with it at the airport - they didn’t let me carry it in my hand luggage (the price difference is huge, of course, I took this one for 10,000, but the feeling of the instrument is completely different. I don’t regret it at all. I advise everyone to choose a quality product right away, and not look for a cheap replacement

Pros
  • Very monolithic, does not play, it is very convenient to get and remove the knife with one hand, it is very convenient to grind knives with a diamond file, the main knife is very strong and the sharpening from the factory is just super, a case with bits of norms, strong sponges, pliers, small screwdrivers in the subject
Cons
  • There are not enough springs on the pliers, sometimes the skin on the finger bites

A good quality product, I rate this purchase perfectly.

For everyday wear on pants, trousers - that's it. I recommend this particular model because its size is optimal for EDC. Has pros: 1. Very high quality tool 2. There are no backlashes at all 3. Compact, easily and without any inconvenience, you can carry it on your pocket. 4. as befits a multitool - multifunctional Got cons: 1. Hard to clean (but this is a problem with all multitools. 2. You can’t wear it on sweatpants anymore, as the fabric is softer and sags hanging on the clip.

I like the product very much, fully consistent with my expectations.

A couple more points that are neither a plus nor a minus. ● The case from this set (832516) is also convenient because it immediately has a pocket for a bit die. Otherwise, when buying any die, the cover is automatically changed; ● I was very worried that a replica might come, good or bad, but a replica. Therefore, if there is any doubt, it is better to overpay a bit and take it from the office. representative, or at least where there is a guarantee stub. Whether or not there are a lot of…

Pros
  • ● Of course, you can watch 1000 videos on Youtube, but these hours of video content will not be able to convey all the ergonomics of the multitool. Here you take it in your hands, and you feel the buzz. As they say - "Thing!"; ● There are no backlashes, everything passes and closes with some millimeter gaps; ● Knife, its shape and sharpness out of the box. Really convenient to use. The one-handed opening and liner-lock still add to the convenience immensely; ● Serrator. I started my history of acquaintance with Hong Kong about 12 years ago. There were also Auchan multi-tools for 200r, and the "Expedition" that had already sunk into oblivion, and the top from Ganzo 302b, but only after trying this blade on Leatherman did I understand how the serreytor should work. It cuts fabrics, ropes in such a way that it seems that I don’t make any effort at all. Like a surgical scalpel; ● The saw and the needle file have not come in handy for a month of use, however, again, it is enough to google the areas of their application and understand that here is "everything👌"; ● Pliers. Comfortable and not rough. Not massive. ∠ The disclosure is impressive! They end with thin edges, and since there is no spring, something taken remains fixed "in the paws". Because they are not spring-loaded, this has its drawbacks, a matter of taste and the task at hand. Removable wire cutters, again, "a plus in karma"; ● Bits. They are convenient at least in that there is no weak link - an adapter, losing which the bits usually become a vestige. And then a bit⇛tool and nothing more; ● Fixing all open tools. 4 main ones - liner-lock, the rest with a blocking plate; ● World Warranty 25 years (more on that later) Below are the advantages of this particular tool (832516): ● Cool set that you get out of the box: A nylon case with a pocket for one bit die, a clip, a ring (it is larger than the main one, integrated, so I can’t say that this is a duplication. This ring is for a different rope size) + a die with bits. Bits - IMHO, normal, in terms of not the most useless, but look closely. Total 6 bits in the die, one in the tool, 7 * 2 = 14 screwdrivers in the kit (+ 2 mini watch screwdrivers).
Cons
  • Is it even possible to attribute this to such a big word as "flaw" - everyone decides for himself, but still subjectively: ● Price, damn it. The dollar exchange rate, of course, decides😩; ● Black dies, the ones that are "6061-T6 Anodized Aluminum Alloy." - He's scratching. Not much, but after a month of use, a couple of 'strokes' have already appeared. I repeat, this, of course, is a working tool, and if you are not a shelf speaker, you are unlikely to be able to keep the presentation out of the box. But it's still not pleasant. It’s like someone struck your beloved new car with a key a little on the door😀 ; ● One of the few tools, for disassembling which you need to buy not a rare TORX bit with a hole, but a key . I don't know its official name, I'll attach it in the photo; ● Personally, my needle file strikes a little behind the wall of the body when closing, but I saw this in the reviews, it's not very critical.

Beyond praise! The product definitely deserves your attention.

I chose a tool from different manufacturers among the top models. Why Leatherman in the first place. In addition to purely aesthetically, I also like the fat plus this one-handed opening of the blades (and there are two of them, a plane and a sereytor), their well-thought-out location and full size (almost along the entire length of the body). Also a big plus is compatibility with the bits of the tool itself without any additional knobs. A set of bits fits in a case with the tool itself…

Pros
  • All essential tools in one compact set The design is collapsible and serviceable, but you have to look for special keys Design Reliability and official guarantee regardless of where and how you purchased The arrangement of tools is conveniently thought out: knives are on the left and look down, power tools are outside, small ones inside All tools are locked There are two bit holders Blade made of steel 154CM
Cons
  • Soft, fast licking and expensive original bits. Ordinary ones do not fit, they require an expensive adapter (which, by the way, can be made independently from any bit extender by grinding it down according to the thickness of the body bit holder) Black finish is scratched A rather rough blade with a thick pivot Prone to rust despite the stated stainless steel (unlike Victorinox bodies), so WD-40 grease is required.

The item is of good quality, there is only one minor defect.

Still, leatherman, unlike victorinox, needs to be chosen live. Mine came with backlash on the sereytor blade, scissors and pliers handles. Plus it's not lubricated at all. By the will of fate, a month later I had to choose another one - already in person in a decent knife store. I looked at three copies - each had at least a small, but some kind of jamb. I took it on with bonuses for 12 - here, in general, it's forgivable. Offline cost much more than 20 - for such a price you already want…

Pros
  • The perfect combination of tools, durable, reliable, small, handy.
Cons
  • General quality

The product suited me, I will recommend it to my friends.

I will wait for a new sample from the service, the official photo and video service recognized the marriage. If there is no marriage, the score will be higher. I have long wanted such a toy, sorry the quality is not very good. Links to videos were rejected as suspicious. PS: the product was replaced with a new one, date 042022. There is no backlash so wild, now everything suits

Pros
  • Live smaller than in the reviews, it is convenient to carry. Nice heaviness. Rich set of tools + bits Scissors sharp
Cons
  • A strong backlash of the blade in two copies, one in 2022, the other in 2022, is already shaking on the first one, and did not really have time to work with it. The serrator and the saw are slightly loose, and the file is like a glove. Bought from an authorized dealer. Aluminum pads scratch from aluminum to metal too easily The vaunted 154CM blade out of the box barely cuts the hair, scratching the skin The pliers are uncomfortable, with a bare hand there is a great chance to pinch the skin on the fingers with the handles (on a large pad he squeezed until the blood) It is not very convenient to use bits, the handle of the pliers is not fixed in the expanded position, and when closed, it is impossible to crawl into narrow places without a bit holder (not included). With a clip, it does not rest on the belt, bent over - it fell out

I didn³'t expect the quality to be this good.

The multitool itself is made with high quality, it lies pleasantly in the hand. I chose Charge Plus because of the better steel on the main blade, the optimal set of tools and additional equipment (bit set, clip, quick-release ring). To each his own, as they say "taste and color" I consider the ring superfluous, the multitool is equipped with a more convenient "secret" ring. You can hook a carabiner on it, the diameter allows.

Pros
  • Fast delivery, came in a week. On the market, taking into account discounts and bonuses, thanks, the tool cost less than wave +
Cons
  • I was waiting for a warranty card to be included, as in some other stores. I think its absence is not critical. In the case of a warranty claim, the form can be downloaded from the OmegaTool website.
