A Christmas multitool for a family friend (female)

[Bo T]

We were getting ready for Thanksgiving and our friend was helping us out. She needed a pair of pliers so I handed her my Leatherman KICK. After she borrowed it a couple of more times she threatened to keep it. So I am thinking that she gets one or something similar for Christmas. Is this the best, inexpensive multitool out there or are there others that I should consider?

Anything Leatherman is worth considering. I'd strongly consider a Juice S2, or a Fuse. If it's for a lady, anything with scissors; it's been my experience that ladies use them much more frequently

Agreed. You can't go wrong with a Fuse.

I was going to recommend the Kick but chris is right about the scissors. I'd still recommend the Kick just because it's my favorite

I'd strongly consider a Juice.

They make a very stylish & practical MT.

When it comes to multi-tools, the words "best" and "inexpensive" rarely go together in my experience. My female employees mostly prefer lighter tools like the Swisstool Spirit, the Gerber 400 series, or the Leatherman Fuse or Blast. Some of them carry full size tools like the Wave.

Thanks for the good advice. I'll checkout the ones suggested.

Maybe a pink (if she likes pink) Leatherman ps4? if not, a juice s2 should go over quite nicely.
