PoP, I have to aggre with Bond! I have never used a Gerber but I do own both the Leatherman Super Tool and the Leatherman Micro scissors and both have traveled with me to Kenya and other parts of the worl and have held up to the abuse that I have put them through. Leatherman gets my vote and the Wave seems to be the bes now that the Super Tools is gone.

Good luck PoP! I can't wait to meet you next month!!!
