Leatherman V. Gerber: Anybody know if the bit kits are interchangeable between Leatherman and Gerber?

Doubt it. The Leatherman ones are a proprietary shape rather than the standard one 1/4" used in regular tools.

there is no difference between this kits but if you can afford the DCKTS go get it because the bag is really messy to keep both tool charger and batteries organized add to this drill bits and gadgets you will need and you have a picture of why you need the hard case in the other hand Dewalts cases are really well design sturdy and not bulky so make your own judgement but I think the DCKTS is the answer to the past design

I am unaware of any way to use bits on this multi-tool... It did not come with a toolkit or bits and there is no way to attach an extender or bit to the multitool to make it into a bit driver. You just have the tools that fold out of the middle and the pliers.

No, standard bits do not work. Does not have a standard chuck. Only SDS bits fit.

According to Leatherman, no. Check the Leatherman website - they list the tools and compatible accessories.

When I received this one I passed my old Leatherman PST down to my son. I think I got it the year he was born, 1987. They quit making PST's in 2004, the same year they stopped making the original Wave. The old Wave didn't have the bit set included with the current version, which IMHO is a superior tool. If you are looking for an original Wave, You will be missing out on the interchangeable bits altogether, which is one of the most valuable features.

I doubt it. My other (small) multitools won't. I don't own a Leatherman Wave, so I can't be certain.

Here are models the driver extender works with: http://www.leatherman.com/131.html#q=bit+driver&start;=1

There's really no reason to pay the price charged for this when a standard bit holder would work much better for that purpose. You could probably even take a cheap standard hex extension and grind down the male hex end to match the flat bit holder on the Leatherman to same effect.

Just loose bits and it's basically the same bits twice. I needed it because I had lost a couple and this was the only way I could find replacements. No bit holder but I still had mine from the original leatherman.

Give the Victorinox multitools a look also. They're far higher quality than the Leatherman they replaced in my tool kit.

According to the website, its just different packaging. The tool is the same in either case, go with whichever is cheaper

Yes. The 40-bit kit is designed for the Skeletool; I purchased this 40-bit kit with my Skeletool. The bits can also be used in any screwdriver that accepts the standard hex-shaped bits. In my case, I have an electric screwdriver, so it's nice that I can use all those bits from the leatherman 40-bit kit for both the electric and the Skeletool.

Similar but I prefer the Gerber brand and quality, have had no problems with either. Hope this helps, if you have no preference I would go by price�

Just a Guy I have no doubt used my Leatherman 300 several times to repair/adjust my glasses, but eyeglass bits?? Never seen them on my 300. I would recommend the Leatherman website to see just what is or is not on each tool. Regards, Paul

No. I didn't know, but leatherman.com provides a nice tool comparison feature. Apparently Charge TTI has everything the Wave has plus a cutting hook and a crimper. I printed the compare as a pdf, but I do not know how to include it in this response. Hope that helps.
