Looking for a BIFL multi-tool
You could not go wrong with a Leatherman Arc or Free P4. Outside of those specific models, I'm of the opinion that there are better options not made by Leatherman. The SOG PowerAccess for full-size and the PowerPint for a smaller more compact size are probably my favorite no brainer options. I'm also a fan of the Roxon multi tool because you can customize it to hold whatever implements you want, though that's a bit newer so the "buy it for life" aspect could be up in the air. It may be difficult for you to figure out exactly what implements your husband would want so it may be difficult not spoiling the surprise. It is also a cheaper option so there is more wiggle room with just buying more than he could need to let him experiment, or even change the implements depending on if he's camping or at home.

$2K Amazon Budget—Help Me Turn Digital Money Into Sawdust
A measuring tape, stud finder, ladder, eye protection (some that seal like goggles, and some that don't), ear protection, dearskin gloves, and a respirator with extra filters should be your first stop. It's easy to forget safety gear until you need it, and these items are only to be bought by well known brands. A cheap measuring tape is a bad idea as they're not all accurate. A quality multi-tool (Leatherman Free P4 is my top choice) can make a lot of repairs possible before you get other tools and is great to have around. Electric tools: pick one reputable brand (DeWalt, Milwaukee, Makita, Ryobi, etc.) and buy a drill, a sawzall, and an impact driver from the same product line. This keeps the batteries interchangeable, and beware of fake batteries. You'll need drill bits, impact compatible sockets, and various saw blades as well. Will you have a yard to take care of? If so, a Corona hand saw, hori hori, pruners, loppers, a mower, weed-eater, and blower could all be considered. For hand tools, buy cheap first, then replace with quality later if it ever does break. You'll want drivers (Philips, flat, and hex at minimum), a hammer, a level, various screws and nails (consider getting a wall hanging hardware set). A socket set is recommended as well. Get painters tape, duct/gorilla tape, and packing tape, super glue (for static repairs), shoe glue (for repairs requiring flex), and clamps of various sizes. Rope is useful as well.
