Leatherman Surge And Leatherman Wave - A Detailed Look At Two Best Selling Leatherman Products, Both Make A Brilliant Choice
So why is the Leatherman Surge different from the Leatherman Wave? For one thing, the Surge includes the company's largest pliers. The tool also has its longest blades. This product, just like any product designed by Leatherman, is built to last but this is sure to be tougher than smaller models. The Surge is definitely a more considerable work horse because of its size. It boasts 18 regular Leatherman tools and its two interchangeable blades.
The Leatherman Surge Tool, with its large knives and pliers has a really solid feel to it. Additionally this model has a thread looped awl that the Wave does not have. If you are looking for a tool with tougher knives and pliers for heavier jobs, the Surge is a perfect candidate. But since it is far heavier than the Leatherman Wave Multi Tool, it is difficult to attach to your belt. It is a better option to carry this multi tool in a rucksack.
For everyday, easier jobs the Leatherman Wave is still preferred by most people, mainly those who just need a useful tool for the purpose of general use and not not necessarily for professional work. Women also prefer the Leatherman Wave because, well, it is cuter, of course and can easily fit in their handbag as it is lightweight. It can easily be carried on a belt or attached to keychain. The Wave became even more popular when it was improved and upgraded in 2004. The main feature that significantly improved the sales of the multi tool is its all locking blades that can be opened with only one hand, not to mention sporting stronger knives, tools and pliers. The Leatherman Wave would unqestionably have become the unrivalled pocket multi tool had it also benefited from the interchangeable blades feature of the Leatherman Surge.
The Leatherman Surge Multi Tool has one minor flaw though, your skin can get pinched while operating some of the tools. Opening and closing the tools also requires a little extra work. Despite this and as stated, it is a minor flaw that won't even harm the image of the product.
We cannot say that the Leatherman Surge is better for you than the Leatherman Wave because it is built for a special purpose - for heavier tasks ahead. If you require a multi tool for lighter tasks, the Wave is a brilliant choice. Whichever you choose, you can be sure that you are buying a quality and durable product that only the Leatherman Group can come up with. Aside from this, you can never go wrong with Leatherman as all products are guaranteed for 25 years. If you need to view other excellent products from the Leatherman Group, the web is a good place to start.
