Wow!! Hi HVAC budget. I really like this!! You come across a lot of cool items!! Making leatherman much better!! Wondering if Tim Leatherman is watching!! i’m already surfing the website using the link that you provided thank you so much!! loving your channel brother!! strengthen honor my friend. 👍🏿💯❤️
I never pulled the trigger on the Shapeways pocket clip for the Skeletool before they went out. 🙄 A better pocket clip is a must and I feel would be the best mod for the Skeletool.
I did this to my OG Wave and Surge with tiny magnets using tools from a $3 Ali Express Swiss Card clone. It's SO handy having a pen and tweezers on a Leatherman 👍
I'm thinking of buying two son-in-laws a Letherman for Christmas. Is there a preference you would have? I think one would mostly use his for cutting, boxes, letter's, paper, etc. and the other maybe a multi tool would be better. To use the knife, and basic other tools ? Thank you, John.
That's an interesting question. As far as the multi tool goes for the second one, I would buy a Leatherman Bond for relatively cheap Leatherman- Leatherman Wave for intermediate gift. And the Charge or Arc for a very expensive gift! For the first one The Leatherman T2 or T4 are more budget priced knife based multi tools and the K2 and K4 look a lot nicer but are much more expensive. All these listed are good tools. For cutting boxes as cheap as it may sound it is really hard to go wrong with the Milwaukee 6 in 1 fastback utility knife multi tool. I know it's not a Leatherman but the utility knife is great and you could buy laser etched utility blades off of etsy to make it feel more premium. Honestly, the fastback is probably better suited for continual box cutting than any Leatherman.
I mean, it's nice if you want them (thumb studs, no thanks) but the only truly useful thing was the hammer (mallet would be more accurate). I honestly don't think the other commenter knows what "innovation" means.
I think the pen/scribe/ferro/toothpick mod for the Arc will also work for the Free P2 and Free P4.
My friend, I bought this EXACT hammer for my skeletool. It's very good. I used and it worked. Approved!
@@aperturelabs8552 Great to hear!!
I'm a big fan of Kristen VanPatten's work! I've bought many of his mods and they are all stellar!

KVP is the Goat on mods.
@@unfi6798 He really is!
Its a poor indictment of Leatherman that a third party is being more innovative.
@@petermoore9504 Unfortunately!
Considering the $230 price these accessories should be included free of charge.
yea very true
It really is
Thanks so much for sharing some of my designs! It's always fun to see your videos when I open youtube!
@@kristenvanpatten3854 You're welcome!!
Ordered some thumb studs for my surge and charge ti. I'm going to order some for my wave plus and some tweezers.
@@leohthelion8485 Nice!

Just visited Kristens’ site, bookmarking. The hammer would be useful for my Skeletool
@@motorolas Nice!
It's great! I have one on two Skeletools. They fit like a glove and great when you just need to tap something in.
👍🏼very cool accessories
I expect I'm waiting in vain for any news of new things for the Surge
I don’t like the thumb studs on the file and saw. The one on the knife blade lets you know instantly what tool you are opening.

That sounds great!

I wonder with the ferro-hammer, would the ferro rod break in pieces if I smash things hard...
No it will not. The hammer material offers a little bit of cushion, and all of the force of impact is transferred to the frame.
…or just carry a SAK with your multi tool? Just a thought
I've seen some reviews on the Gordon tool from harbor freight and was wondering if the thumb studs work on that tool since it's a clone of Charge.
@@DanoSlingz not sure. I'll have to look into that.
@@hvacbudget8600 thanks. it looks to me that the holes are different. I don't think it'll work on the Gordon

Thumb stud on the file is a waist
