Comments

Rider1992: Very impressed. Product is well made and operates with ease. Having a locked knife that can be opened with one hand is a great feature. Having a pocket clip another plus. Even the scissors locks in place.
Money well spent.

Groucho Groucho: Great all round tool. Useful for many things and the knife is razor sharp. Good quality and well made. Would recommend.

Steelystephen: I was pretty happy with the Wingman when I first received it but two short weeks later, the pliers became so stiff that the spring loaded opening stopped working and the handles had to be pried open each time. I have returned it and have lost faith in it since it started out working and then failed. It is as if the stainless steel of the pivot point of the pliers has galled and become tight. No amount of oiling the joint helps at all. Also, the wire cutters don't overlap like other Leatherman tools so the hard wire cutout can't be used to strip wire insulation, which is some thing I used a LOT working on electronics in the field.

I had the same problem with my Skeletool CX when I got it 3-4 years ago. That tool bugged me every time I had to pry the damn thing open. Again, oiling the pivot point of the pliers did not help. This was the main reason I finally decided to try yet another Leatherman. Didn't have a lot of tools anyway. It looks great but now it lives in a dark drawer somewhere.

I bought my PST 2 in 1996 and carried and used it pretty much every day for 20 years. The only complaint I had with it was that the tools did not lock and I had a couple of scary...

Honest Reviews Canada: INITIAL THOUGHTS
I've owned 3 Leatherman multi-tools, and from the 3 that I've owned, this one is probably the most convenient. Having too many tools on one multi-tool is sometimes overwhelming, so having this little guy around is awesome. Overall, I've loved this multi-tool.

TOOLS REVIEW
1. Needlenose Pliers -> This is the MAIN tool of the device and works flawlessly. The main hinge isn't too stiff and does the job really well. Never had any problems with the pliers. Both the pliers are spring-action, so you don't need to put in too much effort to get a good grip and they won't fly open when you release the pressure.
2. Regular Pliers -> Same goes for these pliers since it uses the same hinge as the needlenose. No problems getting right in there and the other tools don't obstruct the grip too much. You won't have any problems using either of the pliers.
3. Wire Cutters -> Kind of difficult to access due to the way it makes you hold the Leatherman. However, the location of it makes the most sense to get the cleanest, effortless cuts and accordingly they're not too big of a problem.
4. Wire Stripper -> Probably the worst tool out of the 14 as I...

Aaron Prince: Update Oct 1, 2017:

Had the tip break off the blade of this Leatherman tool (lots of serious daily use). Went to the Leatherman website to request a replacement. I shipped the tool back to Leatherman per their request and received back outfitted with a new blade within a week. Fantastic!

***********************

I purchased the Leatherman Wingman in April 2013 so I've been using for 1 year 8 months. By way of comparison I Recently purchased the Gerber 01471 Multi-Plier. I'll keep this review short and focus on the differences since others have reviewed the details on the two units.

There's a couple dollar difference in price with the Leatherman coming in higher.

MATERIAL: Immediately you notice the higher quality stainless on this Leatherman(L) over the Gerber(G). It has a nice stainless finish, slightly polished and just has the look of quality. The handle on the Gerber looks interesting. I think it's anodized aluminum and not paint. The stainless on the Gerber has sort of a matte finish.

PLIERS: Especially noticeable on the L is the plier. Bigger, thicker jaw with a better tolerance casting on the pivot point of the plier. The L is a...

Jeremy: Now of course there are always going to be folks who want more, but a multi-tool or Swiss army knife is all about having a *usable* tool on hand when needed, or saving many walks back to the toolbox for the purpose-made tool.

With that in mind, this tool excels.

Compared to a similary-equipped Swiss army knife, it is thinner, since the tools are split between two handles, instead of one, but heavier. The pliers is much more useful than that of a folding Swiss army knife, but not quite as useful as that of a full-size or Heavy Duty series Leatherman.

+ Spring-loaded pliers are not strictly needed, but once you've tried these, you won't want to go without them ever again. They just make it so much handier!
+ Combo knife blade and scissors are externally accessible; brilliant!
+ Unique and useful package-opener tool is not currently found on any other Leatherman. This is a good way to open clamshell packaging without risking hurting oneself as much. Just remember to move your shoulders to do it, not your arm joints, so that if you slip, the knife doesn't move as far and slice you up.
+ #2 Phillips and large flat screwdrivers are generally useful
+ The...
