Pretty much all Leatherman pliers rely on the "lip" as you call it Paperclip. As do the Victorinox tools, Bear tools, Gerber butterfly-opening tools, etc. It is a pretty stout and well proven system. :salute:

The sheet metal stop on the Multitasker is about 1mm thick also. :)

It must be a proven design then :salute: Thanks for informing me, J-sews.


Do you follow what I'm saying?

I think I understand the gist of what you're saying, and the rivet is of greater concern when you're turning a nut/bolt especially with the MT perpendicular to it, but actually I was thinking about cutting wire. After hearing your story and people breaking pliers heads however, perhaps the lips are pretty stout afterall :D

It uses regular slotted screws?
Awesome :)

One of the advantages of Emersons , always slotts or phillips . If you see Torox , it's either been pimped , or it's a knock off .

I can see that it uses anvil cutters (just like linesman's).

Odd seeing conventional screwdriver fasteners on a MT  :-\ :-\ :-\.
That is going to take a bit of getting used to  :think: :think: :think:
