the almost perfect pocket knife

The c33Tx the Leatherman Crater series is the best pocket knife I've ever owned. Although it is even for my not very big hands rather small, but you get used to it, you have to be enthusiastic. It's easy, touches his pleasant and is perfectly finished. Nothing rattles or grinds, no edge is unclean or even begin to be incorrect, the blade is sharp and perfectly. The Blade Launcher is just great. By means of this small lever to open the blade with your index finger in a split second. This knife is almost like a switchblade. Whether you need this function is sometimes an open question, and of course you can open the blade with the thumb pin. Ingenious is also the folding and lockable snap hook, which also serves as a bottle opener. I like those meaningful double functions.

But there are three minor niggles: the screwdriver is attached a bit inconvenient. To open the one needs to have a good thumbnail. Although the black blade looks great, the everyday use these optics but damage and is therefore impractical. And the short serrated / the saw teeth, but which is x in the model name, although looks great, extended the blade and facilitates in some cases even to cut in such a short blade of a penknife I think that but rather superfluous because we (me has happened in carving a stick) so sometimes slightly hooked blade in the cut or slip. But above all, the latter is a matter of opinion and I not worth a star deduction. The Crater knife with smooth blade and without x in the name, ie without serration, are not offered in Germany. On Austria or the United States, however, already.

Anyone wanting to use the knife as a constant companion, but you should have heard of the §42a of the German Weapons Act. There the guiding handed knives is regulated, even if they are not really weapons within the meaning of the Weapons Act.

From me there is certainly a strong buy recommendation.
