Expert Reviews

What reviewers liked

The Leatherman Super Tool 300 multitool has cutouts on the handles for easy operation with gloved hands though I found the cutouts useful even without gloves. The handles have rounded corners and edges which allows for comfortable use without gloves even when applying maximum pressure.

- Pro Tool Reviews

The Super Tool is constructed from an improved, high-carbon 420-grade stainless steel, and extra steel has been added to key areas, which guarantees long-term durability.

- Morning Chores

Wire cutter is replaceable.

- Wiki EZ Vid

One improvement we really like is the inclusion of replaceable wire cutters. In our experience those are often one of the first parts of a multi tool to give out. Having the option to painlessly switch them out is a huge improvement.

- Outdoorsman Toolkit

Got this as a gift for my husband and he was ecstatic. It lasts a long time. This is a second purchase, the saw on the first one broke but the rest of the tool was fine. Since he uses the saw a lot i repurchased.

- Leatherman

I love how easily accessible the tools are with the big cutaways on the handle.

- Best Multitool Kit

Everybody loves the Super Tool 300 for its quality feel and its durability.

- Pocket Multi-tool

One of the interesting things about the tool design on the Super Tool 300 is in the way they clump together when grabbed. This is by design as it prevents having to seek out individual nail nicks.

- Fit 4 Recreation

Super Tool 300 strikes the right balance of full-sized robust tools in a heavy duty package. The Super Tool 300 comes ready to work with two knife blades (clip-point and serrated- both made out of 420HC stainless), four screwdrivers (three sizes of flat tip and a Phillips head), a saw, three wire cutters (stranded and replaceable regular/hard-wire cutters), and heavy duty pliers – all in a sturdy and well engineered package.

- Best Multitool review

This is a solid built tool, with very little frills, but very practical features.

- Best Multi-Tool

Exact tool load out as the Core…and that is no bad thing.

- Multitool.org

The wire cutters on this model are best on any multi-tool I’ve seen. These are super strong, I cut barbed wire with ease. Try doing that with a cheapy tool and see what happens! These wire cutters are replaceable so when they where out you can change them out and be right back in business.

- North Country Farmer

We loved the thin-profile pliers. When we used them in the field in areas where there were tight clearance issues, they performed flawlessly.

- EDC Ninja

Replaceable wire cutters.

- Toolbox Direct

What reviewers didn't like

There is only a single Phillips head screwdriver with three (5/16″, 7/32″, 1/8″) flat heads. I probably would have preferred one flathead and two Phillips personally.

- Pro Tool Reviews

Can be hard to close.

- Morning Chores

Vintage design can seem old fashioned to some.

- Outdoorsman Toolkit

I never liked seeing Velcro on a pouch, it’s practical, but it wears out, a nice solid button would be better…

- Best Multitool Kit

What it also means though is that you have to open the handles to get to any of the tools. You pretty much have to do this to get to the pliers on any other multi-tool anyway. But I prefer generally to be able to get to a few common tools, without having to open up the multi-tool.

- Pocket Multi-tool

The one downside that I personally don’t like, after comparing the Super Tool to some of the newer models is that the tools are not outside accessible.

- Best Multi-Tool

Another issue that I have found that appears to have some commonality with several online user complaints… one of my 300s is super difficult to open and close. I know this will loosen up with time, however, not only are the main handles tough to open and close, but so are the tools inside of those handles. They are so stiff they fit the bill for the term “nail breakers”.

- Multitool.org

Its a big tool and its heavier than your average multi-tool. It weighs 9.6 oz and is fatter than other models so people with smaller hands my find it harder to use.

- North Country Farmer

Both knife blades aren’t accessible from the outside. For veteran multi-tool users this may seem a bit counter-intuitive, but it only adds to the simplicity of the Rebar.

- EDC Ninja

Tools aren't accessible from the outside.
