Sticky

My Gerber mp400 has lasted nearly ten years the leatherman freestyle i bought lasted ten days. Broke bending a needle. I vote Gerber.

The Gerber multi-tool will pinch your hands when using the pliers if you're not carefull

I have a six year old Gerber and a 2 year old Leatherman Charge TI. The leatherman is better because the tools are easier to deploy, the Gerber I use the pliers mostly, so the Leatherman is something I carry and the Gerber is in my desk.

i'm going to stick with gerbers. My mp400 has lasted over ten years.

Leatherman will replace (or repair it, if you prefer) for free. One of the best guaranties in the industry. Plus, they are made in America, unlike many others.

i'm going to send it back this week

Goat skin makes really good lace. Don't know about pigskin.

We don't have any of that white stufff here in the desert.
