Squirt E4

Looks like Leatherman is re-issuing the E4-

I guess I am going to have to update the Manufacturer's Information section again...

 I do some electrical work....and that looks like it could be useful to me. Does the stripper work well?

She might get in the way, what with all that dancing and shaking.... but that's ok! :D

Actually, I guess the tools are all typical LM sized, but I still wish I could see what's what. The page doesn't show any of the tools, or am I missing something?

(EDIT) Well, I just went to Amazon's site and see that the screwdrivers appear smaller than my Core ones. That's not good since I use the Phillips and small flathead a lot. Still, it looks like a nice little multi. I could definitely use some strippers.

Hi Tony,

Actually the tools are quite small.  This is really a key-chain tool rather than a full-sized one.  Strippers do seem to work well.

 Well, hey I'm always looking for a good stripper!  ;)

 So, it's about the size of the Micra? Now that has promise!

     I have one of the Radio Shack branded ones and used it quite a bit for work on automotive guage wire. It worked quite well and was a life saver for quick jobs away from the truck. It is not heavy duty enough for anything above auto guage wiring in my opinion. It is like a Squirt P4 with wire stripping notches.

I did a review on the E4 here.

Joebw and tet6t8 are right, it works well for its size, but is a bit smaller than I prefer. I keep wishing Leatherman would scale the whole concept up a notch, and make a Juice-sized tool with wire stripper jaws.

My short list of toys to get is something like......three pages long at this point.  :P

How about yours?

I can't afford the amount of paper I would need for my short list! :P

Seriously, the next couple on the list are a couple of Squirts.  I only have an E4 and I'd like to try the others out.
