Description
After spending his childhood in Oregon, Tim Leatherman stayed local and received his Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering from Oregon State University. Time spent traveling abroad – which included staying at hostels and driving an untrustworthy $300 Fiat – convinced Tim of the need for a pliers based, multi-purpose tool. “I was carrying an old Boy Scout-type knife and used it for everything from slicing bread to making adjustments to the car. But I kept wishing I had a pair of pliers!” Tim set to work developing and patenting his idea. On July 5, 1983 Tim officially incorporated Leatherman Tool Group, Inc. And as the story goes…the rest is history.

Great Multi Tool
Was looking for a lighter Multi Tool and this fits that criteria. I really like that the pliers are spring loaded.
