Had a fein for years and years.

Excellent .

But recently got a makita 18v 

As id left my fein on site one weekend and needed one .so got the makita on a saturday morning .and ive not used the fein since .

Not cos its bad .its just the freedom and ease of the cordless is way handier

I have fein 110 and 240

clas Ohlson  240 and battery (2)

my plumber mate has the makita 18v....very impressed with it

 

clas Ohlson ( possibly deleted now ) only has a small battery BUT it is only used for cutting plastic,  actually has enough charge to cut 6 floorboards on one charge with a decent blade

bought a Leatherman in Florida in 1998-carried every day and being used for all sorts.

still going strong.

also have a gerber tool but find the extending pliers a bit of a faff to then open another tool.

 

so its  a leatherman for me

I really didn't want to like the leatherman. I thought it would be too heavy, too cumbersome on a belt, and that I wouldn't use the pieces on it. All of this was a lie. 

I love mine now! I have the wingman. 

The one thing I would say is get one with spring-loaded  pliers. Not all of them have it, but it saves having to make a separate action to open them again whilst holding something fiddly in place!

I have the leatherman charge along with the extension bar and all the screwdriver attachments.  Extremely useful and it will,even take standard 1/4" bits as well.  The new variant has replaceable cutter blades BUT only one driver holder. Mine has 2 so I keep a flathead in one and a 1/2 Pozi in the other

they do a nice looking SOG military version that I believe has some 'gun tools' on it

I broke too many Leatherman multi-tools. Big mits and applied pressure resulted in bits of Leatherman ...

Then I bought a Victorinox Swisstool and have never looked back. Superb piece of kit that has served without fault for many years all over the world.
