LEATHERMANSuper Tool 300 Multitool with Premium Replaceable Wire Cutters and Saw, Stainless Steel with Nylon Sheath

Excellent!

I have owned 2 other Leatherman tools. One for over 30 years and the other for 15 years. Still use them but broke the blade tip on bigger one. It still comes in handy. Carry that one in my car and smaller Leatherman in my pocket. Great for everything.

Great tool great quality very handy to have on your belt around the farm

This Leatherman (Super Tool-300/831102) is already making my job as a comercial overhead door installer just that little bit easier. If you do the kind of work I do, I think you'll like what it can do for you, as well. My job requires that I work on ladders, sometimes very tall ladders. It also means working in some very tight spaces. That means I regularly find myself at the top of my 28 foot extension ladder, unable to strap on my tool belt, because of space requirements. So, it used to be that I'd be twenty feet up in order to do a simple thing, like adjusting limits, and find that I also needed to refit a few wires, retighten a few mounting screws, or other small extras. I'd have to extricate myself from where ever I was, clamber down, grab a pocket full of tools, and do it all in reverse. During the last week my new Leatherman has saved me many of these trips. Just today I had to rewire an operator, and trace a few wires that went through some waterproof connectors. Loosening up the cinch-nuts on the connectors was easy with the plier head, and they were about an inch wide, so the tool has both good grip, and the ability to open wide enough to do what I need. The stripper/cutters are just as easy to use as the ones on my $36.00 needle-nose pliers. They're actually sharper, and replaceable.As for build quality, I honestly can't find anything negative to say. It's built like the proverbial tank. Fit and finish is excellent. The plier head and replaceable cutter/stripper inserts were the main draw, for me, and I'm not disappointed. They're very well aligned, and built to take hard use. The fact that the tools aren't available without opening the handles really doesn't cause me any grief, at work. If I get a Leatherman for use outside my job (a distinct possibility), I might go for something like a Charge, with it's tools available without opening up the tool. But for heavy/work use, the Super Tool is everything I need, without the flashy extras. Not that I have anything against flashy extras, but they don't belong at work, where many of them may not survive. Not a problem with this Leatherman.The premium leather and nylon sheath is certainly up to the job of containing and carrying the tool, but wouldn't look nearly as pretty, after a few weeks on the job. I'm saving it for wear, outside of work. I bought the Leatherman nylon molle sheath, to wear at work. It's also very good at it's job of keeping the tool secure, and if I catch it on something the velcro doesn't completely open and dump my shiny new tool out, like the single snap on the premium model could.The only thing relatively negative I could say about the Super Tool is that I'd like to see a few of the tools exchanged for something more useful. I, personally, don't have much use for can openers, awls, or a lanyard loop. But that's just me. Perhaps others like those items. However, for a working tool (which this thing definitely is) I'd like to be able to order a version with, perhaps, a good full size quick exchange bit driver, in place of some of these. There may be an adapter that will slip over this tool's excellent phillips head, to accomplish this. Not sure if that works with this model, or not. It would be nice, though, to have it internal to the tool. But, again, that's just me, and it seems that Leatherman is doing just fine without my input. As a certain very popular gear reviewer on YouTube is fond of saying, your mileage may vary.Bottom line; this Super Tool-300 has impressed me enough to guarantee that I'll be buying other Leatherman products, in the future. It's worth every penny.

I once laughed at people carrying multi-tools. Until I was given one by my father. I didn't laugh anymore. My current Leatherman Super Tool 300 literally changed my life. I found I used it everyday at some point and if I forgot it, I'd turn around, go home and get it. Having no 'tool' at the ready, just wasn't going to happen.I've got several of the smaller Leatherman tools, and they just sit in the drawer, while the Super Tool 300 is used daily. Sent one of the Wave's back because it was still under warranty, after I'd broke the knife blade...it wasn't repaired, it was completely replaced with a new one. So when my old Super 300 broke the tip off the pliers (pulling/wedging a pin out of a tractor jack), I didn't even think about sending it in for repair. Then I wore out the wire cutting inserts. Then using the screwdriver tips for leverage, they broke off... All the damage done was my own fault, not a design flaw of Leatherman.Thought for maybe a minute should I send it back for replacement, or just buy another. Seeing as this tool has gotten me out of serious jams, and been so reliable, couldn't see having it tossed into a garbage bin and a new one arriving.So, we got a brand new one. This one will find a place of honor in my shop.IMHO, the Super 300 is the pinnacle of Leatherman heirarchy. It's beefy, strong, and ready for anything. I stopped flying commercially after 9/11 because they weren't allowed on aircraft. IF I were dropped anywhere in North America with my Leatherman Super Tool 300, I have no doubt that I could survive, and even thrive.Worked in AK as an NPS Backcountry Ranger for a decade, and this Super Tool 300 was by my side every single day. Work and day off. On one patrol, I forgot it at a rest break, and didn't discover the loss for five miles. I backtracked across the high alpine tundra to the location, found it, and it was one of the best days ever.My only complaint with the old Super Tool 300 was the leather scabbards never lasted long, with daily use. Bought new leather scabbards on Amazon made by Leatherman, but they lasted maybe six months before being destroyed. Hopefully, this new cordura nylon case will last longer. If not, I've gotten use to buying third party scabbards.Would I buy it again? Yes, in maybe 20 years or so, when I wear this one out.
