Leatherman Sidekick Overview

The Leatherman Sidekick Multi-Tool features stainless steel construction and 14 tools with a stainless steel finish. Each tool locks into place for safe and confident use in the studio, on a worksite, or as an everyday carry. A lanyard ring and replaceable pocket clip help keep the Sidekick within arm's reach. The multi-tool comes in clamshell packaging including a ballistic nylon sheath with touch fastened closure and is assembled in the USA.
Each tool contained within the Wave+ is suitable for multiple tasks, making this an incredibly flexible addition to any professional tool kit. Flipping open the multi-tool reveals a pair of spring-assisted needle-nose pliers that can also accommodate the tasks that would normally require a set of standard pliers; they also sport handy wire cutters at the crook. Each arm holds an array of tools that lock into place for safe operation. One handle carries medium flathead and Phillips screwdrivers, while the other holds a combination bottle/can opener with an integrated wire stripper, a serrated knife, and a wood/metal file that terminates in a small flathead driver. The file is also etched in order to double as a convenient 1.5" ruler. When closed, a 2.6" and a straight blade of the same length are easily accessed. Both the straight blade and its small serrated counterpart are machined from 420HC stainless steel.

From shooting testimonials to setting up the Booth for AMA Supercross - Race Day Live, this too goes with me everywhere.

The standard for a classic leatherman. I feel like it's a good middle ground between price and features. I wish it was a tiny bit smaller and that getting the screwdriver tools out was a little easier, but those are minor complaints.

This toolset is great to have on set, it comes in handy in unforseen situations and fairly small to pack in your kit

The thing is it is so much easier than a Swiss army knife. Everything opens without breaking a fingernail and all the tools are useful. There is no waste. I love this tool, keep in my camera bag.

Does not come with a Carabiner!

So I asked a question specifically about the Carabiner, BH said the item shipped with one but in fact -at least for me- it did not. It saddens me a bit since I really needed it to hook the tool to my rig for quick access. Other than that the Sidekick is flawless. Slick. Insanely SHARP. Rock solid. Handle with care!

well designed with a few caveats

This replaced by ancient, original Leatherman which is still fine, except the tip of the knife blade snapped off. Good features of this new model = the knife and one other blade can be opened without opening the entire unit; both of these blades lock open = much safer; there is a small catch to keep the pliers open. On the downside, tools other than the knives are harder to open than on the original Leatherman.
