Very worthy, darn you shot show, my list keeps growing as others has said, nice to see a more durable coating its amazing what a bit of colour can do to an established range of tools and the new users it will appeal to, freakin excellent Leatherman

Not that big on the color thing but this looks sharp!

Interesting, a headlamp with a cool 'looking' Fuse. Which headlamp model was it?

I might not be a Fan of the Leatherman Line like I used too...(I am very pleases with my Swisstool),but I really like the Concept of an Orange Tool with a Durable Finish..As a Driver I have no idea how many times I have used a Multi Tool on the side of the road somewhere in less tha favorable conditions..As in the Dark and of course Snow while making an Emergency repair to keep rolling. I have had a few "Oh Crap" moments scrambling to locate my Multi where the Orange Color would have been a Godsend..Please ask Leatherman if they would sit down with some Truck Drivers and design a Multi just for Us..There is a whole lot of us folks out here travelling up and down the Highways day in and day out...

Great points there D   I wonder if they can do one in Glow In The Dark?

I would love to have a Dialougue with Tim Leatherman or an Engineer..A few subtle changes and the addition of what I feel would be a Driver Friendly Sheath System and I feel he would have a hit..but I am just a lowly Driver..But one of thousands lol

Forgive me for throwing a bucket of cold water on the orgy, but I have a techno question.  Remember the problem the Red REI skeletools had when the paint started chipping off?

Was that problem recified with these new Fuses??

We certainly hope so.




The folks at Leatherman tell us that these tools will be given a cera-kote finish, which has a reputation as being much more tough and durable than ordinary paint. However, that being said, it wasn't clear to me if the colored Skeletools were also done in cera-kote...?

Yikes - that's not a pretty picture Bob  I think with all coatings the key to it will be the key 

If they spray the standard polished finish expect one result, and if they bead blast it first expect another. It'll be more a test of adherence rather than the coating itself I'd imagine

That red Skeli looks good to me.  I like experienced tools.

Cerakote is a baked on ceramic finish, similar to Vitreous enamel but done at much lower temperatures.

[genevabuck]

I won't touch a painted tool.

Holly cera-kote batman, did they bast them in butter then paint them (do not show this pic to 5hif7y )I really hope Leatherman's new paint is better than what's on this red skeletool

[J-sews]

....baste them in butter....

Anyone have any updated info on the orange fuse?
