Best praise vs top criticism for Leatherman Sidekick
“Leatherman sidekick for the win Locking knife and saw on the outside Spring-loaded pliers Flathead and Philips head screwdriver Can opener, small serated knife, and small file on the inside Not too big, not too small”
“Every Leatherman tool has its loyal fans, the Wingman family of tools is no exception. That being said, i think the rev (and the wingman, sidekick, bolster are all pretty crappy. If I were you, I'd look at the bond, curl and rebar. All three are more expensive, but all three are much better tools. I'd argue they are a much better value.”
