Does Signal get any points on size, portability, looks, weight and steel quality department to name the few? No?   :shrug:

I've using mine off and on since I originally posted. I've not done a full review, maybe I'll take a shot too. It's not a horrible tool and definitely has possibilities.

I'm interested to hear what you think now that it's seen some use.  :tu:

I'll look forward to reading those. I do think it is way over priced though. I'd like to hold one just to see what it is actually like.

I hope you use that hammer a lot, because you gave up a whole lot for it.  :whistle:

Well, of the small tool in LM's offering (Wave/Charge frame) I like the bit holder... I'm actually having trouble what to put into my Charge. Trading those tiny scissors, can opener and eye-glass screwdriver for a smallish hammer seems like a pretty good deal for me.

Which is why I probably should get a MUT... put in a blade-exchanger, maybe the scissors from the Surge. But what to do with those, for non gun owners useless scarper thingies :think:
It wouldn't be the internet without people complaining.

Not just that, the hammer also make the tool very awkward to use.

I'm tempted to pick one of these up just so I can get a good feel for what it's all about.  Too much whining about the hammer in this thread.

It looks interesting, getting to see it in production form is cool.  I detest the "survival" bits, but other than that I dig the frame and layout.  Mini-mut is actually a cool concept and I use my multi as a hammer all the freaking time.  The price is ridiculous though, I'm gonna have to wait until it drops a tad.  Maybe after Christmas.

I feel the same.  I love my MUT, and as some of you know, I've been saying for a LONG time that LM needed to make a civilian version.  They didn't hit the nail on the head with the Signal, but they did graze it. ;)

Maybe they'll be smart, and make a couple of useful variations of it.

Yup, same here too. I simply love my MUT and was longing for a civilian/outdoor version of it for some time now.
The MUT has got so much potential for becoming a new "Signal" it's not funny. The size, the construction, tool implements etc. Swap the punch with a removable fire-steel, insert lightweight aluminum whistle into the modified side-slot where the small screwdriver bit used to sit before you inserted it into the bit holder at the bottom of the handle. Turn that carbon scraper into a serious awl. And no need for miniature sharpener, at least not for me.

Signal tried, but delivered in-the-middle of the road, kind of a boy scout tool.

We now need more serious and thought-out Signal version for grownups.
EDC and OCD. A wicked mix.
