Very nice good job LM  :tu:


Does anyone who saw the unofficial pic know if there have been any changes since it was 'released'?

ES4.

Why chisel and file?

It is supposed to be "Electrician", isn't it?
I miss the point in woodworker's tools in an "E" instead of, just to say, two more screwdrivers.

Wow; very nice  :D

I think the Style CS is the one I'll be chasing  :gimme: I assume it Squirt size or thereabouts  :ahhh

The regular Style looks very Swiss Army ???

Thanks for these Def  :salute: Are these the same tools that were talked about last month?

Chisel ,I thought that was a flat blade driver  :think:
And I rather like having a file about for getting sharp bits off things like conduit and metal clad encloses that would otherwise end up in your fingers

Exciting...  :ahhh :ahhh :ahhh

I'm looking forward to getting my hands on a PS4 - it may even put my Rambler and Micra on the sideline for a bit!

That Style certainly is a classic in LM clothing  :tu:

the file would be quite useful to cleaning battery terminals, etc.

I don't get why it has scissors though... the is a wire cutter in the head.

shame it still doesn't strip 22 AWG wire, which is common in breadbording.

I like the Squirt PS4, Style and Style CS.  Any idea if the Style comes in other colors than black, like Storm Gray?  It looks like a nice keychain tool.

Before I get excited about the 2010 models, need to save my excitement reserves for inspiring myself to finally get an ST300 in January.

I like the PS4, kinda. Most of any at least. Definitely not a little MT fan, if I'm carrying, I'm carrying big. ;) :multi:

I think maybe I would consider that PS4 though, looks like it has everything I would need, except a saw....
I think I am with Turbo, gonna gun for a ST300 before any of these. :D

Well the ST300 is about as beefy a tool as you can get, and it was just released a few months ago.  What more could you want?  :P

Also, there is an exclusive, private unveiling at SHOT this year that I have somehow managed to be deemed important enough to be invited to- no info is available yet, and I doubt any will be available before the show, and I'm not allowed to take photos, but rest assured I will pass along as much information as I can as soon as possible!

Looks like they can be dismantled  >:D

I think the file on the ES4 is a good thing but I agree I'd like to see it able to strip lighter gauge wire. My own preference would be for it to start at 22 and end at 28 or even 30. That's not a common requirement though so LM are forgiven :)

I'm assuming the blade on the Style is locking  :-\ ?


I'm not taking any more mod orders at present, sorry.

That's what I was thinking too. Cool.

These look like interesting things, but the scissors are going to be a bit puny on a squirt I would think  :-\
I used to come here a lot.

Def,

Any idea (approximate) when these tool will actually hit the stores?  I wonder if the Micra is going to be phased out now with the introduction of the Style CS?  Are the black sections on the Style and Style CS Zytel or metal?

I should hope they don't decide to finally nix the Micra; it's a wonderful little tool. :/
