Mini Tool plier head
on: February 18, 2017, 10:00:01 PM
     I was wondering if anyone knows if leatherman ever put the larger plier head in the mini tool like they did in later model PST and PST2 tools?

I am almost 100% positive that the plier head was pretty well the same all the way from being to end in production with minor changes and plier pivot size. I think that my BO one was made in 2003 or 2004 and the plier head is the same as all the rest of mine :tu:

My 2002 and 2004 Minis have "Leatherman, Tool" pliers, all the rest have "Leatherman, USA" pliers.

Has anyone ever seen an actual made-in-Japan Mini ?  It would presumably only have "Leatherman" on the pliers (no "USA" or "Tool").  I've only ever seen a photo of one, never heard of anyone with an actual tool.

     Thanks.  I knew someone here would have the answer or the tool to look at.

I have a few Minis that I can check.  I don't believe any are Japan made versions, but it is worth a look.
