Leatherman CROC?

detron · **on:** October 23, 2013, 07:13:46 PM

I just saw this at Home Depot, looked odd.

to me it looks like a cheap, half made piranha, but some people may prefer that

Not a bad buy. Did the Sidekick still come with the carabiner tool and the sheath?

Smashie · **Reply #2 on:** October 23, 2013, 07:16:07 PM

I knew I shouldn't have read this, these new one piece tools they are turning out don't seem to be that good

detron · **Reply #3 on:** October 23, 2013, 07:21:07 PM

no carabiner or sheath

Can this CROC tool be used as a mini pry bar?

enki_ck · **Reply #5 on:** October 23, 2013, 07:34:23 PM

And is this one available only as a combo or can the Croc be bought separately? I'd like to know how it compares size-wize to the Piranha.

it is EXACTLY the same size, just no "eye" for the 1/4" bit, and no hole to hold the bit.

also , no lettering.
I did not see this tool by itself

Thanks.

Thanks for the info!
I imagine that could pry like the piranha then.

Wow, that is really interesting. It's not listed on the LM site at all. Although I just saw the skate tools are now on there - the Jam and Grind.

If the price was right ($5-7) I wouldn't mind having a CROC by itself.

Metropolicity · **Reply #10 on:** October 23, 2013, 08:34:52 PM

weird.

Maybe it was a botched batch where they forgot to punch the hole out.

*well then....we have 10,000 of these units....let's sell 'em*

rdub934 · **Reply #11 on:** October 23, 2013, 08:37:03 PM

Good call, Metro! Maybe these will be collectible in several years if that is the case.

detron · **Reply #12 on:** October 23, 2013, 08:38:43 PM

they are not listed at http://www.leatherman.com/pockettools

EDIT

just saw rdub934 already said this

detron · **Reply #13 on:** October 23, 2013, 08:40:27 PM

I am trying to decide if I should buy one and not open it

Syph007 · **Reply #14 on:** October 23, 2013, 08:41:23 PM

That is really weird...

detron · **Reply #15 on:** October 23, 2013, 08:52:48 PM

So i called Leatherman, and it is a promo package, but they will sell the Croc individually in the future. It is brand new.

I was thinking the same. I wonder if they are at my local Home Depot.

Detron, I can see you and I think alike. I just messaged them on FB! Lol, I am glad to hear this - hopefully the price will be reasonable. The Piranha lists on the LM site for $35 (and is cheaper on the streets) and since this is a simpler version it would make sense that it would be cheaper.

detron · **Reply #18 on:** October 23, 2013, 09:03:39 PM

this would be better in my Skinth M7 than the piranha because it is completely flat. HOWEVER, I can just take the bit and bit holder out of my piranha and achieve the same thing, and be left with a "bit driver" and a rectangular hold that can turn a wingnut or something

Sorry. Not with the tools. It was an end cap display no where near the tools

Oh sorry. Now I understand.

Exactly where the Wingman was when it came out.

So did you buy one.

A half made piranha should cost half the price.

if it does my ptx 154cm piranha may get a reptile friend.

I think Leatherman could package up their floor sweepings and some of us would buy them.

So, how much for the Croc by itself?

captain spaulding · **Reply #29 on:** October 24, 2013, 04:42:40 AM

Stopped by two Home Depots and they did not have them.

Ill save the money for something else.
