Do not EVER use the hardwire cutters on these unless they're the replaceable models like on the Surge or Wave+. If you clamp down too hard, it'll deform the metal and render the pliers very difficult to operate if not worthless altogether.

This is a great tool, but be realistic and use the "right" tool whenever possible.
I agree, but just as an FYI from someone who has done that a bunch, you can file a warranty claim and send it in for repair (~$10 for your shipping in) or if you would prefer to fix it yourself a quick brush of the cutter section with a Dremel followed by a drop of wd40 should get things back into shape.

It's things like this, and not having scissors, that makes me either go with low end multitools, like Walmart/Ozark Trail, or as you mentioned the Surge-level and up.

I'm by no means a heavy or pro user of multi tools, but the middleground like this Rev just seems like a bad value to me.

The bargain basement multitools hurt to hold and don't do anything well. This strikes the happy medium for me where I can use it for it's purpose and carry it daily, but if I walk into a place with unexpected security and I need to toss it my day isn't ruined.

Good deal but nowhere near as slick as when Costco had the Rev and Style CS pack for $20 a few years ago. Welcome to 2025.
Wasn't that in store only and limited to a few stores. No doubt my costco didn't have them. resellers man.

No, that was online with free shipping. Those were the days.

The (Costco shelf) predecessor to the Rev was the Bolster (my edc). I also own the Arc, Wave, Skeletool, and sidekick. I will typically bring the Wave when I visit my parents or in-laws to fix various things around the house.

I personally prefer the lighter duty multitools. I've not really had much need for scissors, and I prefer spring loaded. It's just personal preference. My Bolster gets used (maybe abused) and lost quite often. Fortunately I've had it returned to me every time I've forgotten it somewhere.

I also think it's a great price for entry into discovering the value of leathermans. If memory serves me correctly, I believe I paid $27.99 during a Costco flash sale five years ago. For more heavy duty, specialized tasks, I have other tools so it hasn't been an issue for me. Just my 2¢

yep, it sold out quick, but it was one of those just hit buy and don't think deals. I still use that more than any other leatherman i have due to the range of tools but still very compact size.

At 30 this is still a great deal if you need a leatherman, but its not a great deal if you already have 5 (not going to name names lol)

My $17 WorkPro or whatever from amazon is a vastly better tool than my Leatherman Wingman, which is the same base tool as this rev.

That said I just picked up a Victorinox MX Clip and it's a clearly superior tool in terms of quality. At the ~$110 price it's been at recently it's a good value step up from these cheaper tools.
