Leatherman® was founded in 1983 in Portland, Oregon by Timothy S. Leatherman. He partnered with his friend Steve Berliner to develop multi-cool called Pocket Survival. Later on they added more tools, knives and others, and nowdays the company produces over thirty products. Leatherman could use his education as he graduated from mechanical engineering on Oregon State University.
Leatherman® multi-tools include mainly multi-pliers and other multi-tools including paramedic rescue shears. You can also get bit kits for example. Practically all Leatherman® tools are made from stainless steel and other material used is 420HC steel which contains more carbon.
Some of the models come with MOLLE compatible sheaths, which can also offer space for storing of replaceable tools and accessories. Moreover, each piece comes with 25 years warranty and logo of the manufacturer, which guarantees high-quality. In addition to multi-tools you can also find another Leatherman® products such as sheaths and pouches or accessories.
