i order the leatherman ps4 squirt.
first leatherman so i have high hopes

does anyone own one yet?any problems or input?
i know its a leatherman and i cant really do wrong with them.

i think its gonna be nice
 
I've had one Leatherman or another on my keychain for 15 years. Started with a Micra, went to the Squirt S4 when that came out, and now I'm looking to get a PS4 (pliers and scissors? FINALLY!). If you keep them with your keys in your pocket, the finish will get beat up, but it's a tool, not an art piece. I carry a regular knife, a hawkbill knife, a SAK Cybertool 29, and the Squirt on my keychain, and the Squirt is every bit as useful, if not more useful than all my other knives. Don't use the blade much of course, but I use the other tools almost daily. A Squirt is far more useful than a Victorinox Classic.
 
I love my Leatherman Squirt S4!

Me too - great wee tool. I recently got the blade up to 'easily shaving sharp' and the scissors really are good - they are my tactical folding scissors, quite a big step up from what is on a SAK or even the fairly good ones on my LM Wave.
 
PS4 is a great keychain tool, it replaced the Vic classic in my EDC rotation. You will find the scissors a bit small, but quite functional.

I have had it for years and carry it every day. The scissors are really handy.

i really hope that the scissors are as good on the ps4.

i plan on getting the full 25 year warranty out of my squirt.

i was going to get the s4 but when i saw the upgrades they put on the ps4 i fell in love.besides the p and s leatherman put torx bits on it so you can adjust it.

i plan on the squirt being part of my edc.along with some sort of deep carry pocket knife, like the buck vantage pro. it has to be discreet (college campus...)

i have a little $6 swisstech 8 in 1 on my keychain. (if you dont have one buy it). its one of the best things i have bought.its so much smaller and light weight.

It's good so far, hard to know long term - after another decade of EDC I'll see if it is still holding up well, but it still looks new despite the first decade of EDC. I also carry a Victorinox Cybertool (now called the Cybertool 34 because there are a couple more variations) and the LM Wave includes some tools that the Cybertool lacks (file, saw, serrated blade, locking blade, GOOD pliers). I probably use the Cybertool more, but that is because I am a computer tech and that sort of work is what Victorinox designed the Cybertool for.

But seriously, if you want some REALLY good scissors on a small folding tool then you should grab a Squirt S4 - best multitool scissors I have.
