Solid tool, well designed May 9, 2006 E. Gibson IV (Portland, OR USA) 24 out of 24 found this review helpful
I bought one of these for my fiancee, who is the gardener type. I bought it so she would stop absconding with my pocket knife, and so far my plan has worked nicely. I'm no conoisseur of bypass pruners, but these seem well-constructed and plenty sharp. The tools are typical Leatherman steel, which is to say adequate unto the task. I strongly prefer locking knives, and this one doesn't. That's a bummer, particularly with the saw. I've also become very accustomed to having access to the knife blades on the outside of the tool (the way the Wave and Charge are designed) but I think that would have made this tool too bulky and unwieldy. As it is, it's a big tool...noticeably larger than my Charge. The handles are comfortable enough, with nice injection-molded rubber inserts. The sheath is great. There's a metal pocket clip, and a nylon belt slot. The tool can be stored either folded, or in pruner-mode, which is a very nice touch. Well made, well designed, well-conceived. Despite my quibbles, the lady is a happy gardener, and my pocket knife is way less muddy. Mission accomplished.
Uncomfortable August 12, 2007 AJD (Chatham, NJ United States) 9 out of 12 found this review helpful
I returned this tool. I found the handle very uncomfortable compared to the few hand pruners I already have; perhaps, my hands are just too small, or my grip is too weak. I also found the little tools very difficult to open. After thinking about it for a day, I realized that I would find it too annoying to bother with or to even pass it on to someone as a gift. I knew I'd prefer walking to my garage to get the tools that I liked working with.
Quality garden tool May 11, 2007 R. Kawa (left coast, USA!) 8 out of 9 found this review helpful
Quality garden tool that is almost too nice. I got this for my wife who loves working in her garden. She wanted something that would cut back on the number of tools she carries around. I'm finicky about my tools and so its hard to watch this garden multi tool get dirt and plant sap all over it. But she is happy with it and I don't mind cleaning it up. A bit pricey but a great example of you get what you pay for. In this case that is quality.
Leatherman Hybrid Pruner April 6, 2007 Larry Lichtenstein 7 out of 8 found this review helpful
I think what you pay some what dictates the usefulness of this product.It is in no way the quality of a pair of felco #7 but for general puttering around it is a good tool. I did have to slightly modify it, the prunner lock was sticking so I ground it down and all the blades needed touching up with a power strop.I think Leatherman could improve this tool by making replacable blades for the pruner and put a locking device on the accessory blades although with the handles in the closed position it would be hard to have a accident and hurt yourself and maybe a hand lens would be a nice addition to the onboard tools
Handy tool July 9, 2007 J. Kistner 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I have had been using this tool for about 6 weeks now and I love it. It is very handy device to grab and slip the clip on my pocket as I make the rounds of my garden beds (flower and vegetable) to do a little maintenance. The pruners work well for deadheading and light corrective pruning, the weeder works well for loosening the occasional errant weed, and I even find the screwdrivers handy for tightening trellis screws. Now instead of trying to load my pockets with several tools all I have to do is grab the leatherman. Some seem to have issues with the sheath, but I like it and believe I prefer it to leather as some have suggested. For some small flowers I still, however find I prefer my garden scissors for deadheading and of course for heavy duty pruning it is not going to be your tool of choice, but for general maintenance I find its all I need.
