Hello All,

Apparently this Leatherman Surge & c308 (new knife) is available at Costco in a presentation case.

Can anyone tell me what they sell for?

Thanks - Joe
 
oh gosh. Don't tell me that. Now I am going to have to get the surge as well. I wanted the Core but Costco has some great prices so I will end up with both I guess..:rolleyes:


Anyone know where I can get a Core cheap or pre owned?:o
 
In the Good, Bad, Ugly sub-forum Tballetta reported buying one for $89.

--SAK
 
Yep its $89 I had to resist buying 10 of them

Gatch, Thats the one. Looks like an easy way to make a 100 bucks.
 
Hi Folks,

Thanks for the information. Now all I need to do is find a Costco store that has them.

Again - I appreciate the help - Joe
 
Holy smokes! I already own a Surge! But This just seems to good a deal to pass-up. And that leather sheath looks a lot less 'fuglier' than the initial leather sheath the surge originally came out with.

Thanks for the tip guys! :)
 
I too noticed that sheath. What about it Tballetta? Is the Surge sheath that came in your set as good as it looks?
 
Its good leather but it is really stiff. It will take some serious breaking in before the extra bits will fit. You can get em in but not deep enough to close the flap. It looks great.

Yes Costco is carrying them

My black leatherman fugly sheath "cracked" across the top of the flap after 1 WEEK of use. During this time, I pulled out the Surge maybe once a day...

Maybe I was supposed to be applying body lotion to the sheath?!?!?

I am bit disappointed at the quality of newer leatherman products.

What other models of LM's does Costco Carry besides the KF4 and Surge?

I applied some Armor-all leather conditioner on mine, so far no cracks, and I live in a fairly hot & humid climate. :o
 
The Costco deal on the Surge/C308 package seems like a great buy. Does anybody have feedback/experience on the C308, or similar Leatherman Knife tools?
 
Hi,

I've got 17 Leatherman knives and really find them pretty neat. I also have about 400 Victorinox knives and think they offer a great deal more tools in them. However, looking at where I think Leatherman is going, this will become a great line. The Costco set is really neat for either the user or the collector.

Enjoy all these Sharp Pointy Things (SPT's) and have a great holiday.

I started a thread on this, but at a Target store today I found a Surge with nylon sheath on clearance for $28.98! It was just the basic without the bit set, but they also had 301 knives on clearance for $17.
 
Haven't posted in a long time but have still been lurking quite a bit.
I saw this thread and had to comment on the C308 knife.

I got the set for Christmas and I like everything about the knife except the locking mechanism is an accident waiting to happen. If you grip the knife to tight any slight movement of the finger unlocks the blade.

I emailed Leatherman and they said they would take it under consideration.

Also the leather pouch cracked the first time I put the tool in it.

Overall it is a nice tool though.
