Need help identifying Leatherman knife
on: April 15, 2017, 05:13:25 PM
Howdy folks, I need help identifying a Leatherman knife I recently purchased. I have looked at the retired knives on the Leatherman web site and couldn't find this one. Any help will be sincerely appreciated, John

It's a Crater as far as I can see, but I don't know enough about Leatherman to give you more info...

Google told me it's the Crater C302, which in fact is discontinued.

Nice find.
It appears that it may be heavier than a typical OHO folder because of the scales.
If I start and end the day above ground, it is a good day!

Hope yours is as good!

The C302 does not have the screwdrivers. But thanks for looking for it for me. John

If my research is correct, that knife was only sold in a box set with a Surge, and only at Costco. It was never listed on Leathermans website.

I could be wrong though, I just read that somewhere online.
