Leatherman or Gerber

Leather man still USA made? I have an older tool stamped Portland made or something. The other newer ones are silent.

 

Yeh my old gerber multitool is/was awesome, but now they are softer pot metal or something because the blades bend/break way too easy, as did the scissors which i wanted for fishing and my old one didn't have.. Sad to say but they aren't the same anymore. That being said i just looked on their site and they have some pricey stainless models that might be good? I do like the fact that my leatherman wave has the knife on the outside which is what I need 90% of the time. Of course thats also why I mostly just carry a knife now, much easier/lighter clipped to my pocket for daily carry.

Have several Leatherman Tools and love them.

I just bought a little CS that I keep snapped on to my key chain. So far, I like it for what it is. I'll probably get a larger tool to keep in the truck itself.

 

My new ones are still proudly made in Oregon

 

Got my first OHT today. Didn't know it was spring loaded pliers,all tools lock,wire cutter blades are replaceable,pliers lock closed to use the tools. This leatherman is awesome,highly recommend. Now need the MUT.
