What Redditors Say

Best praise vs top criticism for Leatherman Wingman

Best Praise

+10 pts

“I recommend picking up a cheap used one on Facebook Market, and just removing the blade. I got a Wingman for $20 like four or five years back, swapped the blade with a washer of similar thickness, and haven't had a problem with the TSA after their initial short-circuit reaction and realizing that it doesn't have a blade.”

Top Criticism

+5 pts

“I have a wingman. Do not get the wingman. Both scissors and cutter suck. Pliers have a lot of play in it. Get a rebar, bond, wave, skeletool, or curl.”

“This was ny first choice... only thing is i like the orange peeler/package opener that minichamp and gerber dime has that rambler does not. Im not a fan of using a knife to open packages. Saw pharmaceutical version of the rambler that used to have that. But that's super rare.”
