Leatherman 830039 New Wave Multitool.

This is the latest New Wave multitool from Leatherman. It features improved pliers and wire cutters, externally locking knives, a file, and a saw. All the internal tools are positive locking and include scissors, flat 1/4-inch bit driver with Phillips head, flat screwdrivers, can opener, reversible eyeglass screwdriver and wire Stripper. Comes with handy leather sheath and made in USA with Domestic and foreign parts.
The difference between a Leatherman and a cheap imitator is huge. Steel quality is measurably better, and tolerances are smaller, so your pliers really grip and your wire cutters really cut. I liked the screwdriver bit size, really slotted in tight on Phillips and slot screws.
Generally it’s a great tool. The Surge has better scissors, but the Wave is very compact–not truly comfortable to carry around in pants, but definitely in Jeans.
