I owned a Gerber multi tool for about 15 years and then recently lost it. Some lucky earthling now owns my Gerber. I found a Leatherman tool in a drawer that my son had discarded and decided to use it. After about two days I found that the Leatherman was very uncomfortable to use due to its design. Today I bought a new Gerber at a Father's day special price and will be very thrilled when it arrives and I can get rid of this substitute.
