Leatherman Surge And Leatherman Wave - A Closer Look At Two Best Selling Leatherman Multi Tools, Each Makes A Brilliant Buy
by Chris on February 15, 2010
So why is the Leatherman Surge different from the Leatherman Wave? The most notable thing is that the Surge features the company's biggest pliers. The product also boasts its longest blades. This product, just like any item created by Leatherman, is built to go the distance but this one looks tougher than its predecessors. The Surge proves to be a more serious work horse because of its size. It incorporates 18 regular Leatherman tools and its two interchangeable blades.
The Leatherman Surge Tool, with its substantial knives and pliers has a really steadfast feel to it. This model also has a thread looped awl that cannot be found in the Wave. If you require a tool with tougher knives and pliers for challenging jobs, the Surge is a perfect option. But since it is heavier than the Leatherman Wave Multi Tool, it is impossible to carry it on your belt. This multi tool is better carried inside a bag.
For everyday, more straightforward jobs the Leatherman Wave is still preferred by a great number of people, especially those who simply need a handy tool for the purpose of emergencies and not used for a profession. Women also prefer the Leatherman Wave because of its appearance, of course and can easily fit in their handbag as it is lightweight. It can carried with ease on a belt or attached to keychain. The Wave gained more popularity after it was enhanced and upgraded in 2004. One of the main reasons that improved the sales of the multi tool is its all locking blades that a user can open with just one hand, not to mention sporting tougher knives, tools and pliers. The Leatherman Wave could have become the best pocket multi tool had it also benefited from the interchangeable blades that the Leatherman Surge has.
The Leatherman Surge Multi Tool has one minor flaw though, you can pinch your skin while opening and closing some of the tools. Opening and closing the tools also requires a little extra effort. Well, as stated, it is just a small flaw that won't even harm the image of the product.
We are unable to say that the Leatherman Surge is a more suitable option than the Leatherman Wave because it is built for a special purpose - for tougher jobs. If you think you need a multi tool for easier tasks, the Wave is a good choice. Whatever you choose, you can be certain that you are buying a quality and long-lasting product that only the Leatherman Group can come up with. Aside from this, you can never go wrong with Leatherman as the entire range of products are guaranteed for 25 years. If you need to see other wonderful products from the Leatherman Group, the internet is a good starting point.
