Charge is Definitely in Charge

Dear Tim Leatherman,
I am writing not to tell a story of heroism, or how my Leatherman fixed a million dollar machine. Instead I am writing to say first, I own six Leatherman multi-tools and the Surge has always been my favorite, but that changed today when I bought a Charge TTi. It feels awesome in my hand and it looks cool to use and carry. So I found things to use it on to try it out. The Charge does everything as well as the Surge does, and I have every confidence that the Charge will handle what ever comes its way. I work as a firefighter/paramedic and I use your products daily and I depend on them, and they have never let me down.

I would bet that for every story that is written here on the website there are a thousand that aren't. I don't feel completely dressed until my Leatherman is on my belt. My wife jokes that I love my Leatherman more than her, and in some strange way she might be right.

All I am writing is to say THANK YOU to you and all the fine folks there at Leatherman who design, build and ship your products. I love carrying and using an American product. I also tell everyone I know to buy and use your products.

So in closing I would like to say keep up the good work, and I look forward to seeing what this Charge will do.

Tell Us Your Tale

OK, you voyeur, you. Enough of reading other people's stories. It's time you told your own tale of gripping heroism or even just neat DIY'ism. We know there's a Shakespeare in you somewhere. Don't make us use the Steens to find it.
