The opening and closing of the tools is usually easier, it just looks a bit more difficult than it is! :-)
Appearance:
The finish on my Leatherman (as seen in the video) could rather be described as not polished, rather lighter matte distressed style although it is new in my opinion (I hope times) There are no sharp corners, edges or burrs o. Ä ., everything is processed cleanly.
For Tool:
The tool is built around the pliers around and more of a light-duty tool. The pliers actually belongs in a larger category medium. High okay, perfect for my EDC especially in this price range, here I do not know anything.
I can not compare my Victorinox CS Plus it that is represented in a different class, because it weighs and costs but also two and a half times as much.
However, at the beginning sometimes leathermantypisch but a little stiff. Here help a few drops of oil Ballistol-.
From the outside, only the shears and the knife can be opened, for everything else the tool must be opened.
Dimensions & Weight:
- Material is acc.Manufacturer details a 420 HC stainless steel (stainless).
- Weight: 194 g on the kitchen scale

Here in a nutshell:
+ Pro
+ Reasonable price
+ Good workmanship
+ Good tongs, even for filigree work,
+ Forceps left me with no play
+ Belt Clip
+ Equipped with Torx screws, can be tighten if necessary
+ Plenty of useful tools on board
0 Neutral
0 filigree wire cutters: Thicker wires can thus certainly not pinch off.
0 Simple steel, reliability remains to be seen, I will, if necessary, bring an update here
- Negative
Locking the inner tools only through spring support; ie extreme lever movements should be avoided z. B .: the screws Here there is a risk to einzuzwicken fingers or hurt.
- Tools can be opened only when the Zage is expanded
My Conclusion
Strong buy recommendation for price-conscious buyers. Solid material, reasonable facilities. You have to just be aware that it is not a tool for extreme activities here, a tool does not replace a toolbox
