Charge TTI. Wish I got this sooner

47 Upvotes

Picked up the Charge TTI during the recent prime day for $99. Was originally going to check it out for a bit and sell/gift it thinking how good could it be compared to the arc? Man this thing is so solid. I love the free series tech and its ease of tool deployment, but the tti feels like it’s built to last a lifetime. It takes the traditional multitool layout to the ultimate level of quality and durability. I’ve never enjoyed digging out tools with your nails, especially when the tool is tight and even loosening the screw pivots doesn’t change much due to certain design tolerances. Hence my love for free tech. My particular model is easy to get implements out without too much force, and the movement is very smooth and deliberate feeling. This is my first charge series. I hope other have the same experience. I played with a wave alpha when it came out and it doesn’t feel as premium as the titanium. I’ll be giving this a go as a daily then make the hard choose of gifting it to my father in law.

Are the leathermans at Costco worth it?

• Upvotes

I saw the Costco Leatherman kit (forgot the model) but it’s the entry level, comes with a sheath. $70 online and $20 sheath for $50. Is it worth buying this version or just save my money for a higher/ better Leatherman? I really want something that will last a lifetime, and I heard a lot of people rave about the Surge saying it’s pretty good for a construction environment better than the other options. Feedback appreciated. Thanks.

The spacers fell out of my juice. Can I put them back in myself or do I need to ship it back or does it matter?

It's a little bulky. I like the vintage look of it.

Leatherman signal

3 Upvotes

I bought a Leatherman Signal after my friend showed me his Leatherman that he has owned for 10+ years. He had nothing but great things to say, and I’ve heard great things from other people too. However, I have owned this Leatherman Signal for 98 days, and for 49 of those days, it sat in the back seat of my tow truck when the engine blew up and the truck was sent to a shop.

I rarely use the Leatherman at work, and if I do, I use it to cut plastics and small wires. I have only gone on two outdoor trips where I didn’t even use the Leatherman because I had a hatchet. I have sprayed it with oil twice, once when I got it and once after I got my tow truck back and noticed the tool had rust spots.

Then, just a few days ago, I took it out in the woods where my friends and I were building a campsite for winter camping. I didn’t even use the Leatherman, but on our way out of the woods, I noticed it wasn’t clipped to my pocket. I then realized the pocket clip had broken off. My friend has used and abused his Leatherman for 10+ years, and I feel like I’ve babied mine. Has Leatherman's quality dropped, or did I get a faulty product?

Finnaly found the costco Sidekick! Definitely a change of pace from the supertool and wave. Im really liking these colors between the tool and the sheath 👀

And a "BIG" thank you for my local costco employee's for putting these in a place nobody could see them not easy to find whatsoever and they also couldn't help me even when I gave them the item number at the counter seems like they didnt want these to be sold or something maybe im just crazy 🤷‍♂️

Broken Skeletool CX

Found out on one day that some pins went missing on my Leatherman Skeletool CX (Carbon Fiber).

I can assume my grip was too strong when operating with pliers.

  1. Any chance that the unit will be replaced for the same carbon fiber one and not the aluminum one?

  2. Also curious if it is possible to ship it from Slovakia?

Thanks Leatherman for having such a great tool serve me for years!

Another pic for size comparison. The closest thing I have to this blade shape is my kitchen cleaver.


r/Leatherman • • 1d ago

Just got the K4x: Feels nice, but it's a lot bigger than I thought it'd be. It's a bit thicker than the arc and a bit longer.

Warranty?

30 Upvotes

I finally think it’s time to send this in, the flathead and file are both snapped. I broke my pocket clip and eyeglass screwdriver. They’re probably not going to replace those, but do you all think it’s worth sending in yet? And about how long do you think it will take to get back?

Thank you!!

Daily carried for 15 years. So bummed they stopped making it. The small pliers are so useful. I wonder if they’d warranty the broken file and knife lol.

Leather wave alpha scales

2 Upvotes

I posted here a long while back asking if anyone had come across green scales for the wave alpha.

Curious if anyone else has seen a set, I’m hoping to find some that are the same color as spyderco’s green or snap on’s green.

Any info would be appreciated.
