Leatherman Wave+ vs Victorinox Rambler

“Do you have to have pliers? If not, look into Victorinox Swiss Army Knives. Blades can usually be found <3 inches and they have a variety of tools that can be used in a variety of ways. If you need just a rudimentary SAK, look into the 58 mm Rambler or Manager. For a taf bigger, Climber and Super Tinker. The scissors are awesome and you'll be surprised how useful the screwdriver at the end of the can opener is.”

“If by “Swiss army” you mean the actual company, Victorinox (which is famous for Swiss army style knives), here are a few that are great for hiking/outdoors: * Victorinox Huntsman * Victorinox Hiker * Victorinox Fieldmaster * Victorinox Ranger 79 M Grip * Victorinox Camper * Victorinox Rambler Leatherman also makes great “Swiss army” style multitools: * Leatherman Wave Plus * Leatherman Signal * Leatherman Surge * Leatherman Skeletool Remember, bigger, more expensive, and/or more tools is not necessarily better. Look them over and go with what speaks to you and makes sense (affordable, something you think the bf would like, etc.). Your bf will love whatever you pick, because you picked it and are thoughtful. Good luck! Let us know if you need further advice and/or have additional questions.”
