Great idea Cap!I love the show but at some point it getting unreasonable, they could crush zombies skulls with pretty much ANYTHING! Even with plastic container.
How quick does bone discompost? Not that quick!

They would probably sell 10,000 tools the first week to people who wouldn't even use them. Even better would be if they did the commercial and then got the tool used (close up) on the show and have Rick say something like "If I didn't have my Leatherman we would of been screwed".

That's not out of the realm of possibility.Zombies have no blood flow.No blood flow means acid would accumulate in the muscle (lactic acid).The acid dissolves the calcium in the bone making the bone soft and rubbery but also even more like a sponge.Liquid (water) goes into the sponge-like bones.In winter or particularly cold nights the liquid freezes and produces micro-fractures (kinda like stone to sand in deserts).Voila, ultra-weak bones explained.

I sent Leatherman an email about availability. They just replied that they will start shipping in August. I still wonder whether they can be easily modded. In fact, it would be interesting to incorporate the long bits into the whistle area. I wonder if they'd fit. Sent from Tracy Island

I actually think I'll skip on this one.. As bad as I want one it's way out of my price range and I've got all it has in my hiking pack

Personally, I feel the hammer is a very intriguing addition, but like the MUT, the rest does not fit my needs. So, I'm kinda torn, which probably means I won't get one.

As a backpacker this tool really interests me. Almost everyone I have met at camps carry a basic SAK in their pockets and other gear in their bag. Very rarely I see a LM. Size and weight wise the Juices are sort of similar but to be honest Juices will never feel the same once sands gets in the scale so it's never carried again. Even though it still functions once you hear that crunchy/grinding noise you don't trust it any more.I guess most of us will pay top $$$ for dependable, simple to use and lightweight gear if it's highly recommended by others on the trail or by store reps who also are into the same activities and will not mislead you. I guess that's going to be the key to this tool's success. Will first time users give a thumbs up or down? Most of the time products created by market research are total failures. Remember the Pontiac Aztek

Another new video, this one shows the Hammer can be use as bit holder.
