It's amazing really, someone's spent all that money on a great tool and then just left it propped up on a rusting farm vehicle, how careless of them

There might be more tools scattered all around that place.

it's even immune to dust!

Not any more there isn't!

The Swiss sure know how to make a tool that lasts

[Roadie]

Me again, seem to have the pic taking bug once more!

that's reminds me, I need a "New Hole!"

[Grant Lamontagne]

Mike beat me to the article, but for quick reference:



New hole on the left, old hole on the right.  The liner lock mechanism has also changed, with a bit more surface area showing at both ends.

Interesting article, shows just how much attention Vic pay to the smallest parts do all the little changes make it a much better tool or is it just "slightly" better?

[Grant Lamontagne]

The liner lock is easier to access, especially with gloves.  I don't think it needs instructions printed on it though- it's like training wheels on a Harley.  If you need them, you probably shouldn't be using it to begin with.

The hole design seems to allow the thumb pad to rotate better inside the hole, so the blade opens smoother.  At least, that's how it appears to work, and I'd be lying if I said I came up with that theory.  We have our own Swiss Man to thank for putting the brain work into it!  The average person may not notice a difference, but when you put the two of them side by side and really pay attention to it, you can feel the difference.

one alligator is like "Huh!" and the other is like "Grrrr!"

[Roadie]

The Leatherman Crunch, I do like this tool and think it should get more appreciation!!


And the amazing levitating Vic Spirit:

[J-sews]

Nice Crunch, but I'm even more impressed with the magical levitating Spirit!

It is a very handy function when you need somewhere to put it when you're at the top of a ladder! Just weird that Vic forgot to put it in the manual.....

Suddenly the name "Spirit" seems quite appropriate!

Great pics as always mate.    I didn't realise you had a Crunch.

[Roadie]

Ta Had it for a while now, I tend to carry it a lot when i'm out on my bike with a couple of hex bits. Its a well designed and made tool but it is a little speSmurfpillsed.
