I've had leathermans ever since they started making them. I've lost a few, and have broken a few,... so here's a strange story about one of my leathermans.
While living in interior Alaska, I ordered a Leatherman Super-Tool from Cabelas by mail order. A few months later I broke one of the Super-Tool's jaws so I sent it to Portland Oregon for replacement (or to be fixed). About 2 weeks after that, I received it back (unfixed) with a note that said,.... "Not ours.",... the strange thing was the note looked as if it had been written in pencil by a 4-year old. :?
On my next trip to Fairbanks, I took the broken Super-Tool with me, I went into a sporting goods store that carried Leathermans and asked them if they would replace it with one from their display case and they said "YOU BET".
60 seconds later I walked out the door with a brand new Super-Tool. :D
I still wonder to this day, what exactly the "deal" was when I sent the broken tool to it's place of manufacture and WHY they sent it back saying it wasn't theirs. It definitly had "LEATHERMAN SUPER TOOL" stamped on both sides of it (complete with trade-marks and "PORTLAND OR"). :? :? :? :?
I'm sure when I'm dead and buried, my wife will make sure I have a "leatherman" in my pocket. LOL

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
