Company founder Tim Leatherman (yep, it’s called a Leatherman because that’s his name) has held a lot of different jobs, ranging from English teacher to helicopter mechanic. No wonder, then, that he would go on to create one of the definitive multi-purpose tools: the Leatherman Surge. Outdoor magazine Field & Stream named the Leatherman Surge its "Best of the Test" in 2006. What more need be said? Probably nothing, but we'll share a few tidbits anyhow since we have your attention. The tools in the Surge are made of stainless steel and all the blades lock for safety. You'll find just about every tool you could need in a pinch, from needle-nose pliers to a wire cutter, from an electrical crimper to a saw blade. So whether you're a helicopter mechanic who needs to adjust something on an engine, or an average Joe or Sally who just needs to tighten a screw, our research makes us confident you'll always be ready with the Leatherman Surge.

From independent research, we selected the Leatherman Surge as a 3LUXE "Best Of". To see our other Multipurpose Tool selections visit our Multipurpose Tool Overview.
