Leatherman. Knives vary depending on what she is cutting ect?
Daily chore knife would be Kershaw Leek or similar. I'm fond of Cold Steel Knives as well, something like their "voyager" series or the AK-47 Knife. Google their website.

I know a couple of guys that are multitool junkies and both love the leatherman wave.

I have leatherman and SOG. I recommend SOG because of the ability to change blades. One breakes, replace it with a new blade. You can put the tools and blades you want. I have two knife blades in mine. Didnt really need a can opener. SOG also has very good customer service.

Leatherman wingman. Spring loaded pliers and a pocket clip.
Real handy and can be had for $30.

I have two Leatherman tools. An original first generation, my favorite except that the pliers are hard on the hands, and a Wave. The latter is more practical for all round use but heavy.
For a non tactical pocket knife look at the Bob Dozier designed folders sold by K-Bar. Spear point blades and good steel for $20.00. For a very fine and elegant but expensive knife, look at a French made Lagoule $150.00+.

I have a Wave for an all purpose in the woods. But for everyday I carry a Wingman. It's lighter.

My wife wants a good quality, not expensive knife and a leathernan for Christmas.
There are so many leathermans out there, Im over whelmed.She doesn't want a mini, or a huge, has bits, etc., model.
Something that has scissors, sharp blades, screwdrivers, something to keep in the vehicle to be useful, and be handy for use in her office. No major abuse, in other words.
As for the knife, general use, no pocket clip, non tactical looking, and stays sharp.
Any suggestions for models and makes? Owned them them all. Get the Wingman. People that are recommending the Wave, have never owned the Wingman. Merry Christmas, Dave

Wrong. got them both. Wingman, while a decent tool - it's a Leatherman afterall - ain't no Wave.

The Sidekick is also a good option. It's a slightly different version of the Wingman.

Something to keep in the vehicle... One wants a Wave on his belt.
