The best multi-tool will always be inferior to the “correct” tool. I generally don’t care for them, but in a pinch, they will sometimes suffice. I generally have one in the Jeep or when I go the the junkyard or on the motorcycle.

I’ve got a few Leathermans. Funny thing, I actually _found_ 2 of them!

I sent one of them back to Leatherman when it broke. They sent me a brand-new one (no questions asked) complete with case. It has the sharpest knife blade I’ve got. That’s kinda cool.
