Nope, because the next blade above it would have been cut out from where the handle was....

Still I imagine it's been heavily modified from whatever piece it was cut out from.

Apparently ALL multitools, multifunction knives and even many dedicated knives have to have a bottle opener.

That was a provision that Canada added as an amendment to NAFTA. I'm just quoting from memory, but I think it reads something like this:

"We don't want none of your tools crossing our border unless we can open a beer with them, eh?"

I can't say for sure as I'm not lawyer, but that does sound like an official Canadian document!  :D

It has to be Charge TTi leftovers, to my knowledge they wouldn't have scrap S30V from anything else.

Thought I would drag this up, looks like OHT was added at the end of last year as well.

I'm kind of excited to test out a Leatherman OHT.   Wondering about the thickness of the tool handles right up next to the plier head.  I'm not fond of the nail pulls being cut all the way through.  That always seems like it creates a weak point.

Rebar looks good.

the OHT is a complete different tool for leatherman so it will be interesting to see how the pliers deploy in comparison to a gerber. like a flik. i cant want to see a review. its a long time to wait to get one though
