I think the ST300 should be the same thickness as the ST200

That's what I think as well Bob. And the ST200 was a fat old tool.

Yes sir, there is nothing like the good old ST for packing allot of tools in a thin frame.

+1 to that.

So am I right in thinking what you gents would really prefer is an original Super Tool, but with rocker arm blade locks? (In other words, a Super Tool 300 without the rolled handle edges)

Since I carry the original everyday without problems I wouldn't see a problem

Not at all! Rolled handle edges are a necessity on all modern tools!

Rolled metal handles are beautiful.

+1 I find the original Supertool much more comfortable to use than say, the Blast. I admit the PST was a real pain though.

Benner · **Reply #220 on:** June 18, 2009, 11:16:19 AM

No problems with the Original here either. I find that the tools in each handle actually make it a flat-ish and comfortable grip.

gadgetman7 · **Reply #221 on:** July 16, 2009, 02:53:30 AM

So any news about knife blade lengths and release dates?

Leatherman123 · **Reply #222 on:** July 16, 2009, 02:54:44 AM

I personally think the ST200/Core/ST300 are wide so you can access the implements with gloves on.

It does help. I hope that it will be even easier with the cutouts for the large blades.

Talk about things coming full circle, For years I carried and loved the Supertool then discovered the Swiss Tool and since it was a Vic I got rid of the Super and starting carrying the Swiss Tool.

Then along came the Spirit which made me retire the Swiss Tool. Now I rediscovered the Kick and put the Spirit down. I am looking forward to the Supertool 300 I like the looks, the features. (Am I fickled?)

You are definitely fickled!

So are we down to an exact date yet for release

or is it still just Sept

Thanks

Rob · **Reply #227 on:** July 30, 2009, 04:21:57 AM

Dealers are supposed to get a blast email with ordering info and that hasn't happened yet so I'm guessing a month or more away is still looking likely.

RaptorMan · **Reply #228 on:** July 30, 2009, 04:25:16 AM

I cant wait I need one of these tools. Has anyone seen the sheaths for these yet? I hope the go old school on the sheath or a whole new design.

If Leatherman employees in fact reads these boards, they will know without a doubt what we think about their current sheaths!

If they went through the trouble to update an older model, I'd really like to see them issue it with a quality sheath like the original Super Tools.

gadgetman7 · **Reply #231 on:** July 30, 2009, 09:23:28 PM

I'm still curious about blade length. I sent Leatherman customer service an email a couple of weeks ago but haven't heard anything. I really hope it's under three inches.

If its fleather than I will be buying up all the ones on Ebay and using them for trades.
