It all started with a gifted MUT… and here we are!
About six months ago, a good friend from the explosives department at the mining company I work for gave me a Leatherman MUT. That was my first Leatherman and how I discovered the brand. Well, one thing led to another!
Here’s my collection, from left to right:
Surge: My go to for home repairs, DIY, electromechanical projects, and 3D printing. The bit kit and ratchet driver make it even more useful.
ARC: This one is a backup for another ARC I use as my daily work EDC at the mine. That one’s currently at the mining site.
Super Tool 300: Lives in my car, just in case.
MUT: The one that started it all! I don’t really have much practical use for it since it’s designed for more specific tasks, so it’ll probably remain a collector’s piece. Still, it has a special place as my first Leatherman and a gift.
Surge: A gift for my dad. Hopefully, he’ll enjoy it as much as I enjoy mine
I’m not really looking to collect multitools just to keep them sitting in a drawer. I want each one to have a purpose and actually get used. The MUT might be the exception.
What was your first Leatherman?
