Did you know that the original Leatherman multi-tool wasn’t called the Leatherman? The prototype for the now-famous tool was called Mr.Crunch, but one of the main tools, a double pair of pliers, was too expensive to manufacture back in 1975. Now Leatherman is bringing back this iconic lost feature and combining it with their most advanced multi-tool to date, the FREE P4($149.95). Mr. Crunch is the inaugural release from Leatherman’s Garage series. The stainless steel multi-tool uses the same FREE magnetic technology used in the FREE P4. It allows for quick, one-handed access to 21 different tools. The tools include:
- Bluntnose Pliers
- Premium Replaceable Wire Cutters
- Premium Replaceable Hard-wire Cutters
- Electrical Crimper
- Wire Stripper
- 420HC Knife
- Spring-action Scissors
- Package Opener
- Awl
- Can Opener
- Bottle Opener
- Wood/Metal File
- Phillips Screwdriver
- Medium Screwdriver
- Small Screwdriver
- Extra-small Screwdriver
- Pry Tool
- Ruler (1.41 in | 25 mm)
- Chisel
- Small Bit Dr with Eyeglasses Screwdriver
And, of course, the iconic double pliers, which snap into place when deployed and stow away when they’re not needed. It also comes with a Heritage Mr. Crunch leather sheath.
The limited-edition Leatherman Mr.Crunch multi-tool sells for $199. You can head over to Leatherman.com for more info or to purchase.
