Review on πŸ”§ LEATHERMAN FREE T4 Multitool and EDC Knife: Magnetic Lock, One Hand Access, Made in USA, Stainless Steel, Crimson by Mike Devine

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good and bad, but mostly good

GoodIt's light. It fits well in the pocket. The design of the scissors, awl, screwdriver and file is almost identical to the Free P4's tools; These are the new pliers from Leatherman. They all lock and feature a new one-hand magnetic opening system that sits comfortably on your thumb. The blade feels nice and sharp but is smaller than the blade of the Free P4 pliers, but this smaller blade also contributes to the T4's compact design. A pair of tweezers is also a good addition. The bad part is that there are a few plastic parts inside the tool. This contributes to the light weight but feels cheap and 3D printed. I haven't checked if this pocket tool is covered by Leatherman's 25 year warranty but I have a feeling it isn't as it doesn't seem like the plastic parts on this tool will last as long. Very atypical for a quality brand like Leatherman. I hope I'm wrong because in general I like this baby.

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than other picks
