ANY MEMBER IS WELCOME TO ADD REVIEWS
Being that I do not own ALL of the Leatherman line. Please feel free to add pertinent info! I’ll include in the reviews
Just been sitting around talking with Veer about Multi Tools. Got me to thinking, Multi Tools are another venue many people look for advice on. I thought I would review a few I have. Anyone else who owns them is welcome to chime in. What I am really looking for? Any short comings or improvements to personally owned multi tools other members may have. Please no disputes about which is best. Any MT can be the best depending on how suited it is to what the owner needs it for… Getting kinda late. So I’ll prolly begin reviews tomorrow.

Personal opinion ( Pros & Cons )
Pros
Excellent multi tool for anyone who carries a ‘black gun’. It has all the wonderful tools needed to work on firearms. The bronze scraper won’t scratch the firing pin assembling cleaning out buildup. The bolt extractor & pin pusher are nice touches as well. Sportsmen & Gun enthusiasts will definitely take a shine to this MT. Nice sized blade & saw ( exterior mounted ). The Bronze scraper & pin pusher are also exteriorly mounted. So you don’t have to open the tool to get to them.
Cons
It’s Ginormous! While it does have a pocket clip. It’s not comfortable in your pocket. The built in hammer on the back seems like a excellent device for mangling your hand. The plastic pieces are completely annoying. Call it my OCD, but I have a firm belief plastic has no place on a multi tool. It’s a pretty specialized tool. What will make it coveted, will also steer people away from it. Not to mention it’s a bit spendy for a MT.

PROS & CONS
PROS
Very sturdy well made MT. Large to say the least. Made for work, not ease of assess. ALL tools lock into place. Very simple useful design. Very economically priced.
Cons
Very large MT. Not for office work. This tool may be more than you are looking for. No external tools, a beefy MT.
