Leatherman Rebar Multitool with Premium Replaceable Wire Cutters and Saw, Coyote Tan

The consensus

What reviewers found

Synthesized across the trust-weighted source mix below.

Across the reviewers we read, the Rebar earns a near-cult status on r/Leatherman, where one thread titled "hot take: the Leatherman Rebar is the perfect [multi-tool]" sums up the community position. Owners on r/Leatherman repeatedly describe it as the "tankiest" feeling tool in the lineup, with one review highlighting "noticeable lack of flex in the arms when applying pressure." Another r/Leatherman owner says they prefer it to the Wave because of the lighter, smaller form factor, even at the cost of a smaller blade. The Rebar's pitch is straightforward: all-locking tools, premium replaceable wire cutters, a saw, and a no-nonsense layout, at roughly $100.

What reviewers liked

  • r/Leatherman community repeatedly describes it as the "tankiest" feeling Leatherman
  • Premium replaceable wire cutters, rare at the ~$100 price point
  • All-locking tools, a frequent ask for trade and work use
  • Lighter and more pocketable than the Wave+ per r/Leatherman comparisons

Where it falls short

  • No scissors, called out by r/Leatherman owners as a significant omission
  • Blade is smaller than the Wave+'s, a tradeoff some reviewers dislike
  • No pocket clip from the factory
  • Less feature-rich than similarly priced Wave+ for users who want bit drivers and scissors

Across the reviewers we read, the Rebar earns a near-cult status on r/Leatherman, where one thread titled "hot take: the Leatherman Rebar is the perfect [multi-tool]" sums up the community position. Owners on r/Leatherman repeatedly describe it as the "tankiest" feeling tool in the lineup, with one review highlighting "noticeable lack of flex in the arms when applying pressure." Another r/Leatherman owner says they prefer it to the Wave because of the lighter, smaller form factor, even at the cost of a smaller blade.

The Rebar's pitch is straightforward: all-locking tools, premium replaceable wire cutters, a saw, and a no-nonsense layout, at roughly $100. Verified-purchase reviewers on Amazon (4.6 across 5,000+) reinforce the durability story, and the design's lineage to the original PST gets credit in community threads for its compact pocketability.

The consistent and honest knock: no scissors. On r/Leatherman, one owner calls that its "only flaw, but a significant flaw," and that's the one feature reviewers say sends some buyers to the Wave+ or Wingman instead. If scissors aren't critical to your use case, though, the across-the-board read is that the Rebar is one of the most robust tools-per-dollar in Leatherman's catalog.

It's lightweight and extremely durable, I have put it through so much and it never misses a beat. I can not recommend this tool enough.

Out of the three, the Rebar feels the tankiest. The tension in all the joints and the noticeable lack of flex in the arms when applying pressure ...
