I wonder if any of y'all that own or have handled the full-size Victorinox SwissTool, the Leatherman Surge, and the Leatherman Core could comment on the ergonomics of these three multis in comparison to each other?
From other threads regarding these tools here in the Forums, I'm familiar with the features and perceived strengths/weaknesses of each. I've had a chance to handle a Surge and a Core in my area, and I liked each one, but I've never handled a full-size SwissTool - I can't seem to find one at a store in my area (Denver). I LOVE the ergos on my SwissTool Spirit, but from the photos I've seen, the full-size SwissTool is shaped differently. If the ergo difference between the full-size SwissTool and the Leatherman products is minimal, I'll probably go with the SwissTool.
Note: I own an original Wave, a new Wave, and a SuperTool 200, plus the Spirit, and I like each for different reasons, so I'm sure any of the three new tools listed above would be okay, but I'd like to hear from anybody who has had a chance to handle all three.
