Leatherman is famous for its high quality, innovative, multi-utility tools. One can find various tools that are very useful for daily odd jobs and at picnics, backpacking, camping or trekking activities. These tools are usually made with high precision instruments and are very compact, so much so, most of them will fit in a keychain or in the back pocket. Some of the tools are priceless for the fact that it is very hard to find them in hardware stores when one needs them in the time of crisis.There are many models of multi-utility tools each with a predominance of one tool and a few others for support. The Charge e.g. has a serrated scissor that is very strong and has a great grip too. Made of materials like anodized aluminum and blades of 154 CM, this hook can be used for cutting through hard materials too like leather and linoleum when need be. It has a stainless steel body and also comes with other utility tools like pliers and wire strippers along with a file that is diamond coated for extreme sharpness. Crunch is another utility tool with 420 HV stainless steel made vise grip pliers. It has a screw slot that can be adjusted along with an array of screwdrivers. One can use the blades for dealing with adamant screws and buttons.The Leatherman blast is another variety that is completely different from the others. The blades of this tool are longer providing extra grip and comfort. The load which can be managed with this tool is almost doubled because of the length of the blades which also allows one to saw and slice easily. It also has a point knife and screwdriver bit along with hardwire cutters that can help fix even strong fences. The comfort grips ensure that one doesn?t feel uncomfortable holding the metal utility tools. The freestyle hybrid tool is probably one of the best engineered multi-utility tools around. The knife is very quickly accessible like a pocket knife made of 420 HC steel, it is serrated with a clip point combination designed to provide the ultimate strength. The locking blade and the one handed opening make this tool very easy to use. The Juice is another model from Leatherman, perhaps one of the more popular ones, because of the great utility value. It is a highly compact yet versatile package that contains almost every tool that one might need in day to day activities or on camping and trekking exercises. It consists of three different sizes of screw drivers, along with a metal file and a diamond coated file. Couple of different varieties of wire cutters, a 420HC serrated knife, awl, bottle and can openers makes the juice an all in one combo. With attractive colors, anodized aluminum handle for better grip and a stainless steel body, the juice gives you an easily accessible set of tools that also include pliers and scissors. All you need is one such tool and you can do away with your tool kit for long distance journeys too.
