I've never met a man who didn't love his Leatherman tool, and the Leatherman online store carries every possible variation on the basic Leatherman. My dad has two, a small one and a bigger one, that he uses for everything; my husband carries his with him all the time, just in case. I would suggest the Wave or the Surge, if this is your first Leatherman.

"Leatherman" is fun to say.
