To bring running a little trick to the whole thing to: Simple banjo completely solve, clean and coat all friction surfaces thinly with WD40. Then the screws with blue Loctite threadlocking screw again and to z.Bsp. the blade is no longer wobbles and already läufts clean and no longer rubs.
The tool itself I even consciously adjusted something difficult comes up, because there is nothing more useless than frictional missing links of a pair of pliers. Is this too easy on and shakes a little, they will inevitably eventually break the shaft. A positive connection the tongs holds just longer.
My bit holder works and also the Zweitbit is held firmly in my copy. Moreover I built from a bit holder for a cordless drill bit holder for the Leathermanaufnahme. Simply grind with a Flex the hexagonal shank to the right degree and already fits the bit holder perfectly into the Leatherman tool and normal hexagonal bits can be used.
Thus, it will save you the purchase of quality and not so expensive Leatherman bits.
The bottle opener is functioning properly and the blade is easily resharpen spite of the steel used very useful and, above all. Just outside me is very important, because what I want to start with a great VG-10 blade, if I get this out not sharp again.
In addition to the Rockwell hardness also increases the porosity and brittleness of the steel.
And now the most important for me:
The clip :)
I bought the tool for the most part because of it. Strange how many find it annoying, but I always found it annoying, z.Bsp. the Leatherman Wave so to carry in your pocket. I need a well-functioning clip, such as all of Spyderco knives on a knife :)
The last: the design :) Ich finds very successful and it is the combination of a hard material such as steel and the liquid molding like about this tool!
I would not hesitate to a bolted tool prefer a riveted, because I can adjust it at any time and get back in top shape :)
Strong buy recommendation from me and even a collection of very nice :)
