Leatherman Surge And Leatherman Wave - A Detailed Look At Two Best Selling Leatherman Products, Each Makes A Superb Choice
So why is the Leatherman Surge unlike from the Leatherman Wave? For one thing, the Surge is fitted with Leatherman's biggest pliers. The item also boasts its longest blades. This product, just like any product created by Leatherman, will last but this one looks even stronger than its predecessors. The Surge proves to be a more serious work horse because of its size. It packs in 18 regular Leatherman tools plus its two interchangeable blades.
The Leatherman Surge Tool, with its large knives and pliers has a really robust feel to it. This model also has a thread looped awl that cannot be found in the Wave. If you are need of a tool with tougher knives and pliers for heavier jobs, the Surge is the ideal candidate. But since it is heavier than the Leatherman Wave Multi Tool, it is impossible to carry it on your belt. This multi tool is better carried inside a bag.
For everyday, more simple jobs the Leatherman Wave is often preferred by most people, in particular those who simply need a handy tool for the purpose of emergencies and not used for a profession. Women also prefer the Leatherman Wave because, well, it is cuter, of course and can easily fit in their handbag because of its lighter weight. It can easily be carried on a belt or attached to keyring. The Wave gained more popularity after it was enhanced and upgraded in 2004. The main feature that improved the number of sales of the multi tool is its all locking blades that can be opened with just one hand, without mentioning its tougher knives, tools and pliers. The Leatherman Wave could have become the perfect pocket multi tool had it also benefited from the interchangeable blades feature of the Leatherman Surge.
The Leatherman Surge Multi Tool has one minor issue though, your skin can get pinched while opening and closing some of the tools. Opening and closing the tools also requires a bit more effort. Well, as stated, it is just a small flaw that won't even influence the image of the product.
We cannot say that the Leatherman Surge is a more suitable option than the Leatherman Wave because it has been created for a special purpose - for heavier tasks ahead. If you think you need a multi tool for more simple tasks, the Wave is a good choice. Whatever you choose, you can rest assured that you are buying a quality and highly durable product that only the Leatherman Group can come up with. Besides, you can never go wrong with Leatherman as all products are guaranteed for 25 years.
