The rarest would probably be the ancient Roman ones.

Or maybe the "Confederate Army Knife" (This one is SO cool) It definitely gets my Southern blood all riled up.

LOL!

I would have to say the new 25th Anniversary LM Charge. I believe only 500 were made!

These would be almost as cool as the Confederate one if there was a cork screw. If you look closely at the stone dagger you will see a Swiss cross. Not sure if it is Wenger or a Voctorinox though.

scrappy · **Reply #11 on:** May 13, 2008, 09:37:45 PM

sorry, one offs do not count. the 25th anniversary is the same tool with gold or something???
no you are right these are all very rare. my work is is blocking the links so I will have to look later.

J-sews · **Reply #12 on:** May 14, 2008, 03:37:25 AM

Dunno if these Leatherman Anniversary tools are the rarest of the rare, but they are mighy scarce. The ultimate shelf queens for sure.

Here's the 10th Anniversary PST. It is 24k gold plated. Only 200 were made.

Here's a 20th Anniversary Wave. It is Black Diamond plated. Only 500 were made.

Leatherman123 · **Reply #13 on:** May 14, 2008, 03:43:02 AM

Bob, you know you want to give my the 24k gold plated PST!

scrappy · **Reply #17 on:** May 14, 2008, 05:47:14 AM

How is it you know of the Case tool Scrappy?

scrappy · **Reply #21 on:** May 15, 2008, 06:52:03 AM

I should have known.

I have one in my collection. I like it as it represents imo the case family's only multitool. I have some rare tools but nothing extremly rare. I have every leatherman tool (not counting color variations and anniversary models) except the cs2. I have a syderench, byrdrench, coleman, laminated shrade and craftsman tools, a few old sog tools that are harder to find now. I like tools. there is just to many to get em all but I wish I could.

J-sews · **Reply #22 on:** May 15, 2008, 01:38:19 PM

Hang onto that Case tool then. It's no great device obviously, but anything with the word CASE on it seems to be worth ten times what it ought to be.

SpydeRench you say? One of the older Made in USA models?

Dtrain · **Reply #23 on:** May 15, 2008, 03:22:49 PM

I think Hoppes also put out something similair to the Case tool.

That's an odd looking thing.

scrappy · **Reply #25 on:** May 15, 2008, 08:19:13 PM

It is an odd tool,

ya I know they sell a taiwan spyderench now. I use the byrdench and the old spyderench is a collector's piece. cost me 130 4 or 5 years ago. I asume you have one?

scrappy · **Reply #26 on:** May 16, 2008, 02:38:08 AM

Bob,

I assume you have a spyderench right!

Yessir I do. It is a made in USA one, with a plain edge blade. Never really carried it though. It is more of a fascinating piece of gadgetry to me than a practical tool.

Which blade does yours have?
