Wrenches for all Leatherman screw sizes
on: January 05, 2013, 05:19:15 PM
I was just about to take an ALX apart the old fashioned way when I remembered I had some universal wrenches that could work better than any pliers. :D The screws came off without a scratch to the BO and the screws themselves are also intact. :tu:


Tools used: Pocketwrench II and a Wenger Universal Wrench tool on my Wenger Urban. :D

Nice!! Don't think they'll work on the Rebar, since the screws are recessed, but it looks like a good non-marring solution for the others that use those @#$%^& serrated screws.

 :salute:considering doing this as well, hope you don't mind me asking, is it a straight forward swap or do you need to do some mod on the Rebar pliers ?

Thanks

Depends, if you have scissors in your charge, you'll have to grind a bit off of them, if you don't (like the ALX) it's a drop in. (Have a look at the Black Tide-thread by Metro, he's done quite a good walkthrough on a wave, which is practically the same)
