More choice in grit, and because of the lock tabs on the Rebar, you're limited to the tools you can put against it. I will be exploring tool load out until September starts.

I figured getting the t-shank holder from the Surge would be too much modding; that's the one from a ST300 EOD. I got it from Loki-mobil. Had to re-profile the radius, make a notch for the lock tab pivot, and take a little bit off the height for handle clearance.
I really like the idea of doing this because I have need of a metal saw more than a wood saw when I'm at work, but still like not having to choose one over the other.

Are we allowed to use extra bits with the Rebar? Like a bit kit or other add-on implements?
I hope so because I'm carrying a knifeless one to stay within the law outside of work and am carring a sak for my blade.

I spent a week at Myrtle Beach earlier this month with a Sideclip (going light and old school) and didn't have a single issue.
I'm sure the Rebar will fair just as well.

First days usage was to replace the rubber end on my walking stick, it was more worn than I thought and nearly went arse over tit this morning.
Knifeless Rebar + Pioneer combo so I have a blade and can keep within the law outside of work.
Pioneer to cut up the side of the old rubber end

I used the wood saw with extended handles to reach a box that was just out of reach (being short is lame....). This is why I like and almost prefer the classic LM design, the versatility of the handles.

Well I have to admit it's been a slow day multi tool wise, but I'm sure it will pick up through the month.
Pic 1 is my mt carry for September. It includes of course a Rebar in BO, a Pioneer X (scissors), Leatherman bit kit (in duct tape case lol) bit adapter and bit extender.
Pics 2 and 3 depict a problem I've known about since I purchased this defective 12 pack of Diet Coke. My wife and I played a little game of who will get stuck trying to open this can. As luck would have it, I ended up with it. So I put my Rebar and bit adapter to good use and punched the tab open.
I know it's weak but that's what I have so far today

The jigsaw blade makes quick work of cutting a piece of plastic wire mold. The stock blade from Leatherman is a little aggressive, but it gets the job done.

I've got a ST300 EOD myself, and use that blade a lot.

That right there is where my plier MTs get the most use. Pulling pins for 3-pt hitches, mower decks, etc.
Unfortunately, I seem to never remember to take a pic while I'm doing it! Good job for remembering! :D
Yep I thought it was a perfect time for a pic :D That is the biggest part of the challenge for me (remembering to take the pic :ahhh :D )

Day 1 Rebar challenge PiTBuLLz4Me
Well I have to admit it's been a slow day multi tool wise, but I'm sure it will pick up through the month.
Pic 1 is my mt carry for September. It includes of course a Rebar in BO, a Pioneer X (scissors), Leatherman bit kit (in duct tape case lol) bit adapter and bit extender.
Pics 2 and 3 depict a problem I've known about since I purchased this defective 12 pack of Diet Coke. My wife and I played a little game of who will get stuck trying to open this can. As luck would have it, I ended up with it. So I put my Rebar and bit adapter to good use and punched the tab open.
I know it's weak but that's what I have so far today

I mowed the grass, and the pull string on the mower caught in seat of a swing set. The Golden Rebar was employed to bend open the seat hardware and release the captured string. Another international crisis averted.

I cut a dead plant out of the landscaping but wanted to save the little air plants that were attached to the dead plant. The Rebar's serrated blade worked perfectly at this job.

Just got home from the game, which we won 57-18, and the Rebar is a very good tool for audio visual equipment set up. The bit adapter and bit kit definitely compliment the Rebar nicely making it a very complete tool set.
Yes Obi1 we will have to do that. I get up to Northern Virginia several times a year, so we should definitely meet and hit the Viet restaurant. Onward to day 3 everyone!!

Thanks Obi1 !! I appreciate it. Have to admit I'm liking the Rebar more than I thought I would. Usually I like the outside handle style tools. I purchased this Rebar for this contest and its growing on me. Extremely light tool for all that you get. Now I understand all the love for the Rebar. After the contest I'm going to try to put scissors in.

Thanks Obi1 !! I appreciate it. Have to admit I'm liking the Rebar more than I thought I would. Usually I like the outside handle style tools. I purchased this Rebar for this contest and its growing on me. Extremely light tool for all that you get. Now I understand all the love for the Rebar. After the contest I'm going to try to put scissors in.

Today I caught up the yards that I cut for family members. I cut a total of 3 yards and the Rebar came in very handy. I used my Rebar's replaceable wire cutters to cut trimmer string for my Echo trimmer. This is one of my favorite features of the Rebar, the replaceable 154cm cutters. The Rebar is a very compact multi tool with many super usable features. I also like that so many here have modded their Rebar's to fit their needs. I am really starting to think this just might be the best tool period.

During the ST 30 day challenge I fount the ST300 tool set good, just a heavy tool for EDC.
The Rebar does this very well, for me in a sheath and on weekend in pocket. May just need a second one to add a pocket clip for casual carry.

In my view, the Rebar is the best balance of real utility vs. weight/size for EDC. The Swisstool Spirit is very close in this regard, however, and is in some respects superior with its outside-opening blades. But it is also just a small amount heavier than the Rebar. The Spirit's outside-opening blades are a big deal to me, as they can alleviate the needs for a separate folding knife. Opinions differ, but I would like to see outside-opening blades on all Leatherman products, which allow for quick access to the most-used tool (main blade usually) with the added benefit of a smooth handle when gripping the plier. I can feel the Rebar's file digging into my manflesh when I use its pliers. Smaller MTs like the Juice lineup have their own level of utility, but in my view can't compete the Rebar and larger MTs in terms of usability. But when the sole measure of EDC goodness is that sweet spot of utility per ounce, the Rebar is the winner. This measure may be the most important for EDC, because even a heavy user will spend most of its day in the sheath or pocket where every ounce matters.

Carried around all day with me. Used it to do some inside maintenance on my van. Tighten the screws on the handles after popping the cover with the flats. Those handles start to get the wiggles after a lot of use. Didn't take pics in the moment, need to get better at that, was kinda running around and busy all day so had to keep it moving. Here's a pic, after the fact.

Cobbled together a window opener out of one of the cleaners mop shafts, part of a file hanger out of a draw, some tie wraps, and some 2 BA brass setscrews. Not the prettiest but it works, and hopefully this one won't get "borrowed". The other end to push them shut again is one of my walking stick rubber ends.

I continued carrying this pair over the 3-day weekend, doing lots of chores and honey-dos around the house and property. I have to say that, aside from a little less reach on the pliers, the Rebar is as good a tool for most jobs as the ST200. I think the knifeless Rebar is probably the best all-around Leatherman available for those who carry a separate knife. I don't use the knife blade on a plier MT, except as a backup, and I don't believe I've ever needed it--but it's there if I do.

Yesterday my wife handed me this soap container to remove the "drain-back" spout as she always does. If you remove these things as the bottle empties, you can get about another 1/2 cup of soap out of there that is trapped by the drain-back feature. She says she gets another 5-6 loads of laundry done with it.

Today I used the serrated blade on my Rebar to cut some 550 paracord. I wanted a neck lanyard to carry my ink pen for when I'm wearing a shirt without a pocket. Never liked carrying ink pens in my pants pocket in case they leak or bust. The serrated blade on the Rebar is very sharp and cuts well.

English cucumbers — also known as hothouse, greenhouse or seedless cucumbers — are typically longer than the regular, garden variety and have a milder flavor. The skin is thinner and it contains smaller, less noticeable seeds.

Added zipper pulls to my bag. The plain edge did a better job. Third cut is serrated edge. Rather messy.

Ah, the things we deal with as we get older! Hell, I have hair growing out of places I never knew it could grow from.
I hope you weren't driving while you were taking the pic. ;) :D

You know, if you used a SAK magnifier to burn it off, you might earn a Fire merit badge. At a minimum you would earn the respect of your MTO brethren, which is far more valuable than any badge.

Well it's Friday so that means high school football. Once again used the Rebar to set up the end zone camara and Echo instant replay system. This is our 3rd game and so far undefeated. Updates to come. (http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160909/287c6991f015a990c00652df0508ba29.jpg)

The Rebar definitely helped. It's very useful in setting up all our equipment. Kind of strange though some of the coaches really like it but seem like they've never heard of Leatherman.

I'm sure some of them have played a few scrimmages without a helmet. Seriously though you just don't see people with multi tools here. I live in a rural area and most people carry tools in their trucks. I'm always looking for someone with a multi so if they have them they're not being carried. I've seen one person with a Spyderco knife but most have a kershaws clipped to their pocket or a Buck folding hunter on the belt.They must have banged heads too many times themselves if they've never heard of the great Tim Leatherman! :multi:The Rebar definitely helped.

I used my file for the first time to shorten the kick on my Case Sowbelly. This is the first time I've used the file on the Rebar, and I realize now how much more I prefer the longer diamond file on the Pulse. I think a swap is in order.

I dropped my walking stick getting out of my car this morning and created a burr right where my hand goes. I used the rebar file to dress it off. It's a bit course for it really and this is where I miss the diamond file on the surge I would have normally carried.
It's not pretty but will do till I get home and have access to a diamond file.

I've got an old Icey-Tek, maybe 20 years old, not sure. I think Icey-Tek became Yeti. I recently had to replace the latches to the rubber ones from the original bungee cord latches. It will still stay cold for over a week. Sorry about derailing the thread Y'all.

Stripping a length of 0.75mm2 mini mains cable to test a galvanic isolator. Stripped just using the scissors and pliers of my knifeless rebar, mainly because I wasn't in a hurry and I couldn't be bothered to go fetch my cable stripper tool from the workshop.

Serrated to cut off leather strap that became tangled on a young ladies wrist along with a bicycle chain as she tried to do something with her bike. Heard a scream and rebar did the rest.
Phillips to remove cover so I could replace comm ICs.
Small flat blade to scrape away corrosion on circuit board that got water on it.
So far...

I was doing some shopping while on vacation and ran across this Buck 110 Folding Hunter at Walmart. It was on sale and I couldn't pass it up. This knife was all I used to carry back in the day, so it was a sentimental purchase. This was the only one they had and it was less than $20. So my Rebar is hanging out with my new Buck knife and my SOG Slim Jim today (http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160914/5b0eb527eff469057ae0d414a7639a35.jpg)

The pliers to grip a larger Allen wrench to open a cabinet with outer security locks at stop 1. At stop 2, pliers again to insert 23g wire into connectors that worked loose, knife to open static bag of repaired board, small flat blade to lever up the 2 proms from old for locating onto repaired board, pliers for relocating nylon standoffs and inserting cable plugs to small for my large fingers.
After done it wanted to pose above the bill acceptor red landing lights -

Wow, $20 is a great price. Was that with the leather sheath?No it came with a nylon sheath. My nephew bought one a few weeks ago and his had a leather sheath. His also was in a clamshell package and mine a box. I guess Buck is like Leatherman and packages products in different configurations

Day 14 Rebar Challenge PiTBuLLz4Me
I was doing some shopping while on vacation and ran across this Buck 110 Folding Hunter at Walmart. It was on sale and I couldn't pass it up. This knife was all I used to carry back in the day, so it was a sentimental purchase. This was the only one they had and it was less than $20. So my Rebar is hanging out with my new Buck knife and my SOG Slim Jim today (http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160914/5b0eb527eff469057ae0d414a7639a35.jpg)

Day 14 - another busy day split between a couple of sites. The Rebar has a good variety of tools that I use often or have learned to use more frequently.
The pliers to grip a larger Allen wrench to open a cabinet with outer security locks at stop 1. At stop 2, pliers again to insert 23g wire into connectors that worked loose, knife to open static bag of repaired board, small flat blade to lever up the 2 proms from old for locating onto repaired board, pliers for relocating nylon standoffs and inserting cable plugs to small for my large fingers.
After done it wanted to pose above the bill acceptor red landing lights -

Heck, I tried to give him a Wingman to carry and he said no thanks.
There is no helping some people I am afraid :-\ Good try though buddy :tu:

Nope. It was a big step for him when he bought a Micra at a yard sale for $2. Not like he carries it though. :twak:
Day 14:
Had to cut a little piece of wiremold this morning.

As many years as I have used them no one has ever converted to using one no matter how useful they seem to them :facepalm: :D
No kidding. They don't want to buy or carry their own MT once they have figured out that they can borrow mine. >:( :twak:
I have gotten to the point I ask what they want my knife or MT for and if I don't like the answer they don't get it or I end up doing it myself :facepalm: :D

I have had a newbie with me for a few weeks, he liked my Rebar, then found my Wingman in tool bag, it was on his side 8:00 to 5:00 each day, but he put it back in its slot at EOD each day.
That is why my SuperTool300 and Wave remain suitcase.
We will see how he does on his own when returns from schooling.

You don't want the tip snapped off or the blade all gummed up with the glue off of packaging tape? Poncho, that's just plain being selfish
Or when they roll out a big roll of plastic on a concrete floor and proceed to cut all the way through the layers to the concrete with it :-[ I have been known to carry a utility blade knife just for this as they all should as well :whistle:

Two weeks into it and I am still happy to have the Rebar on my side :cheers: How bout everyone else :DAbsolutely agree! The 300s a little too big to pocket, still great tool (obviously, same tools as rebar) to keep around the house and in my toolbag for heavier duty. The rebar I can either pocket or holster, and it is a great size for either. The wave has oho blades and files which is great, but NO AWL!!! And the juice is just a tad on the small side to confidently tackle all jobs, plus no locking (just in case).
The Rebar is an easy choice for my go-to Leatherman.

14/30 rebar. Cutting the biggest tags off of what should be a comfortable pillow... The scissors are sharp, almost better to just slice cut versus chop away, that make sense?
The amount of tags is ridiculous nowadays. My jacket had 5 tags, plus two loops for hanging, and all that just at the inside of the collar, which is is at the very least annoying, having all that material and some sharp nylon corners at the back of the neck.

I like the old-school design, so I'll get a ST300 eventually, but I just love my Rebar.
Adding scissors improves its versatility immensely, not to mention mods others have done, like pocket clips and diamond files.
Slim package, packed with useful tools, and it looks nice too.
Still, a MiniBar would be nice. :D

I had to call on the saw in the t-shank holder yet again. Needed to modify a surface mount box to accept the wire mold that I cut yesterday (which can be seen in the pic as well). That piece proved to be too short, so I got to cut another piece as well.

Yeah, they are both pretty gaudy ("extravagantly bright or showy, typically so as to be tasteless"), but I'm okay with that. I use them for a while, until I start to get a migraine, then I switch back to stainless or BO.

Last site replaced old readers with new, 5 total, about 30 minutes each pliers and 3D Phillips handled mounting. But with both hands in use not able to capture in use pictures.

Made another plastic hook, and then decided to bend and twist a clothes hanger into a hook rack.
Pretty decent until a permanent solution arrives. The bathroom has no hooks whatsoever, nor does the kitchen. Can you believe it? Not a single one. :facepalm:

I needed my single beam flash light to add some brightness to a cabinet and it did not function, changed batteries but observed corrosion on two of the three battery inserts. File worked wonders and returned a dark light to a bright light.

After going through all my mail from last week I found a package that arrived while I was gone. One of my Instagram followers sent me one of his custom Rebar sheaths to test and evaluate. I have to say I'm impressed with the quality of it and the ease of use. One thing I definitely like is the clip can work on a belt or a pocket. I've been using it all day and like it clipped in pocket. It also doesn't add any noticeable weight. It's made by R.A.E. Gear. I'm definitely going to buy one from him for my MUT(http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160917/991d8cd7efc6d6962926efc74dd675a0.jpg)(http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160917/6280f58b30c9a6670bcf5bb0d47303c4.jpg)(http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160917/c34741813136d8441585f048994350c0.jpg)

I attached it via screws on a plank, it should do for now.

I've got a few problems with multitool challenges - most of them aren't UK legal (not such a big deal really), the multis are bigger than I can comfortably carry and, most worryingly, I just don't need a multitool that often.

Same here. When I carry one, it is a "just in case" kind of thing. Its the peace of mind knowing that I have things covered. But mine gets used very little. I like to have a blade, flat and phillips drivers, precise scissors (Victorinox), mini phillips (Victorinox) and pen. And those are covered with something like a Cadet plus Manager. But I do feel good having an MT on my belt just in case the need arises to save the day for someone else.

I totally agree. Some days I don't have a lot of need for a multi, but when the need arises a multi usually comes in very handyI just don't need a multitool that often.
Same here. When I carry one, it is a "just in case" kind of thing. Its the peace of mind knowing that I have things covered. But mine gets used very little. I like to have a blade, flat and phillips drivers, precise scissors (Victorinox), mini phillips (Victorinox) and pen. And those are covered with something like a Cadet plus Manager. But I do feel good having an MT on my belt just in case the need arises to save the day for someone else.

But, yes, there are days (especially weekends) that I don't always find a use for a MT. I'd still rather have it and not need it, than need it and not have it though.

Well, I woke at 1:30 AM with that light on my mine. So work my Rebar, ventured down stairs, used my blade to free the new fixture from the blister pack, the the Phillips to remove the bad fixture, used the awl to mark the new screw hole, used one original, the awl again to make a hole for a screw insert, and Phillips to start the screw, blade to remove screw hole covers, and then Phillips to tighten.
Here is group photo of tools and finished mounting. Took about 20 minutes, then back to sleep till alarm.

Same here on the limited usage part. I still like having a pliers based MT just in case though :tu:::)
:pok:
It is a hard challenge if you aren't use to carrying the Rebar in the first place :D
Maybe next time mate :salute:
I've got a few problems with multitool challenges - most of them aren't UK legal (not such a big deal really), the multis are bigger than I can comfortably carry and, most worryingly, I just don't need a multitool that often. Most of my day to day needs are covered by a pocket knife and some scissors.

The challenge for me is the picture taking :D At least it was a bigger challenge when I first started with the challenges :facepalm: I have it down a bit better now with the taking of the pic then uploading to photobucket :cheers: When I first started really putting pics up everyday though it was a way more complicated and time consuming process :ahhh I have days that are more MT needed than others as well and even have a time finding something to do with one everyday :D Which is why I completely understand that most MTs are there just in case instead of heavily needed :salute:

Day 17 Rebar Challenge PiTBuLLz4Me
After going through all my mail from last week I found a package that arrived while I was gone. One of my Instagram followers sent me one of his custom Rebar sheaths to test and evaluate. I have to say I'm impressed with the quality of it and the ease of use. One thing I definitely like is the clip can work on a belt or a pocket. I've been using it all day and like it clipped in pocket. It also doesn't add any noticeable weight. It's made by R.A.E. Gear. I'm definitely going to buy one from him for my MUT(http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160917/991d8cd7efc6d6962926efc74dd675a0.jpg)(http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160917/6280f58b30c9a6670bcf5bb0d47303c4.jpg)(http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160917/c34741813136d8441585f048994350c0.jpg)

Company names a couple of times, this is latest.
To bad, it is a nice option, a bit pricey yet nice.
If he had treated Grant fairly, I suspect he would have sold 50 units or more going forward.

John you didn't do anything wrong. The guy who sells those metal sheaths has some history with Grant the owner of the forum. That's what that link is about.Thanks Steve, I wasn't aware of this. To clarify, while on vacation last week, I was contacted on Instagram by one of my followers who wanted to send this to me free of charge, with one string attached. He asked if I'd give him a shoutout on my page.
I had been posting a lot of Rebar pics on IG from the challenge here. So when offered this I said sure why not. The gentleman who contacted me seemed very polite and honest. When I got the sheath, which made it home before I did, I liked it because it added no significant weight and I could pocket clip it like a folder knife.
I can assure anyone I'm not affiliated with any company. My IG is pitbullze4me if anyone is interested. I'm not sure what happened in the transaction referenced in the link. Mine was absolutely free and shipped super fast.

Day 2 of a rainy stretch in Central Va. First day of Fall and it feels like it. I did use my Rebar to open a mail call package. The Microtech is something I've wanted for some time, let's say a early birthday present. It's not something I'll carry everyday, due to living in the Commonwealth of Va, but I can open carry as soon as I figure out what that means.
10 more days to go !! The Rebar is definitely a great multi tool to carry. Favorite feature is size and weight (http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160920/8f555d62d21bb98a6da3dc6ef7b125dc.jpg)(http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160920/96afcc4103d267b25ab85e87d3b3d312.jpg)

20/30 I'm not minding this sheath either. The belt loop really sucks. And the flashlight isn't a great one but it just fits so perfectly...This style of sheath was paired with my orange wave. My rebar was received with the box style.

I have recurrent flirtations with traditional knives, as they have a certain aesthetic appeal not found in modern designs. But then the practical side of my brain reminds me that a Victorinox Compact has 10x the utility of a Case pen knife.

Powernoodle Day 21The Vic compact knives do have more capabilities but those Case pen knives have that old school cool factor. Love the older style Case, Buck and Scrade Old Timer knives before Schrade became Chinese made.

Day 21
Noticed one of the bolts that holds an outdoor light fixture to the wall was loose, so I used the Rebar to tighten it. I can't figure out how a bolt that never gets removed managed to back itself out. Maybe the heat?

I guess it depends on how one uses a knife. Our fathers and grandfathers, the WWII generation and their predecessors, all managed to live their lives with slipjoints and intact fingers. If I use every blade as if it were a slipjoint, its never going to fold on my fingers irrespective of whether it has a lock. It forces me to slow down a little, have my mind present in the moment, and exercise more care. I use blades to slice - and that's it. I don't dig, twist, pry or exert forces on the spine of a folding knife. But some people do, and that's where a locking blade or fixed blade would be appropriate. I've cut myself many times over the years, but its never been for lack of a locking blade. Its usually because I've been in a hurry, and ignored the basic safety rules of cutting away from your body, etc.

The Buck traditionals are Chinese too. :facepalm: That Case is one gorgeous little knife though. I'd be proud to carry it.

No question about it. There are plenty of guys who have sold all of their "modern" design and carry only traditional knives. I totally get it. Its all about appreciating the history, remembering how Papaw used to do it, and slowing down and enjoying the experience. With a modern folder, I can flick it open and do the job before I even know what happened. That's good on the job site, if you have a lot of work to do or in a theoretical defensive scenario. But there is also some value in enjoying the aesthetic side of bladework, and slowing down to appreciate the polished bolsters, jigged bone covers and the cutting experience. I generally reside in the modern folder world, but occasionally retreat to traditional folders to slow down a little and reset my brain.

I can't remember ever being cut by a knife folding closed on me during use, but I have had them fold up on me. I also typically just need a single blade, and if there are others, they don't get used, unless there's a specific task that the extra blade is much better suited for

I carry pretty much SAKs now always but if I was going to carry a knife that was just a knife I would always carry a traditional slip joint :dd: That is what I always carried before I started carrying SAKs and what most everyone I know carries with the exception of a few that have moved on to some of the more modern folders :cheers:

The knife in the picture took me back to when everyone carried a "pocket knife". I'm not a knife expert but I thought Schrade sold out before any Buck knives were made in China. That's why I said I loved the older style of what I call a pocket knife.

The third day of rain again finds me with not a lot of tasks for the Rebar.
The discussion of pocket knives inspired my pic for today. This is "my" most valuable knife. It was owned by my grandfather, who raised me from a young child, a WW2 vet and life long farmer. My grandmother gave me this shortly after his death in 2002. I'm not sure if the exact age, but I know it dates at least until the late 1960s. He carried this knife everyday even though he had others he received as gifts. If any knife has put in work this knife has. He truly used it for everything and it shows. One blade is broken and the tip is gone from the main blade. It is a Colonial knife made here in the states. (http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160921/5c9da3662ddb282acafd6aebd15a91ed.jpg)

Opening a couple of tins of tuna. The tin opener in the cottage is a weird one that uncrimps the edge of the tin, which then won't fit inside. I like to use the lid to press down on the tuna to squeeze out the brine, so the rebar opener was just the tool for the job.

No question about it. There are plenty of guys who have sold all of their "modern" design and carry only traditional knives. I totally get it. Its all about appreciating the history, remembering how Papaw used to do it, and slowing down and enjoying the experience. With a modern folder, I can flick it open and do the job before I even know what happened. That's good on the job site, if you have a lot of work to do or in a theoretical defensive scenario. But there is also some value in enjoying the aesthetic side of bladework, and slowing down to appreciate the polished bolsters, jigged bone covers and the cutting experience. I generally reside in the modern folder world, but occasionally retreat to traditional folders to slow down a little and reset my brain.

Day 4 of rain around my area, so I decided to do a little blade maintenance. I'm using the Work Sharp Guided Sharpening System and finishing up with a Knives Plus loaded strop.
The Rebar wasn't dull or anything so I used the fine stone and then the ceramic hone. I have to say I really like this system and seems to work well on small and larger blades.
After getting the blade where I wanted, I made some passes on the loaded strop to refine the edge. The Rebar sharpens easy and I think that's a huge plus on what I would say is a hard use multi tool.

Also small creramic for serrated :like:The model I have has that too Obi. I have never attempted to sharpen a serrated blade. I usually don't use the serrated blade often so as not to lose the factory edge.

Same here. Just don't use it very often so it's stays sharp. The Leathermans I have with serrated blades came razor sharp from the factory.

Minor repair on my small umbrella.
Normally the lanyard is attached on the handle, at the edge, thus putting a lot of pressure on it when you hang or hold the umbrella from the lanyard.
This caused the handle to become loose, and pop off when I carried the umbrella by the lanyard.
I removed the handle and the lanyard, and attached the lanyard on the rod, by a small wire through two holes on the rod.
Then, I just punched a hole in the handle, and attached it back on the rod.
Now, hanging or carrying the umbrella by the lanyard puts pressure just on the rod, without interfering with the handle.
Holding the umbrella by the handle when open is still ok, despite the handle being loose.

Yesterday I was unscrewing a terminal on a power converter to attach a line, and the terminal came loose on the inside of the transformer. That was at the end of the day yesterday, so it got to sit over night and the Reaver helped me repair it today.

In my view, the Rebar is the smallest and lightest of the MT genre that retain enough utility to be useful on a daily basis. Moving down one class on the size scale, the Juice lineup is smaller, and it has its own appeal, but utility suffers as size and weight diminish. So for me the Rebar is as small as I'll go if I still want to have real world utility. Its a good one for those who want to carry all day, everyday as a "just in case" MT. I truly do not know its there when it rides in a vertical pocket on my 5.11 pants.
That being said, I have always preferred MTs with outside-opening blades. To me, it just makes so much more sense because it gives quick access to what is usually the most-used tool - the main blade - with the significant benefit of making the plier handles smooth in the hand. I remember former MTO member JafromMn opine that inside-opening blades were preferable as this configuration kept everything from getting dirty when the MT was closed. JafromMn was a serious, hardcore user of MTs, and his opinion carried some weight with me. But in my daily MT usage as a suave, handsome, urban professional, keeping the MT clean is not a problem. So I definitely prefer the configuration of the Swisstool Spirit, so I can access the blade quickly and not feel the file and other tools digging into my hand when I use the pliers. As much as I love the Rebar, and could make it through life just fine with nothing else, I'll still prefer the Spirit. It is also noteworthy, though, the the Spirit costs substantially more than the Rebar, and that can be a big factor for the budget-minded user.
So what I would like to see someday from Leatherman is a Rebar and ST300 with outside opening blades. Timmy Leatherman obviously knows how to do it (the Wave), and for me this would be the next logical choice in Leatherman micro-evolution.

Thoughts on the Rebar at day 24:Well said Powernoodle. I'm very happy with the weight for what you get with the Rebar. Honestly, I don't even notice I'm carrying it. Yeah the inside tools are a bit of a pain, but not a deal breaker for me.

After carrying this for a bit over a month( I started carrying mine early), I'm a believer that this might be one of the best multi tools out today. I also agree with the inside tool models keeping out dirt and dust. I was cutting grass with a Swisstool X in a sheath, when I was finished I took it out for something, and it was full of grit. I had to wash it out to get the grit out. Outside tools are nice, but they can have issues as well.
The Rebar is definitely going in my rotation once the month is over. I'll probably carry a Swisstool Spirit for a bit but I'm sure the Rebar will get carry time. I've enjoyed this challenge so far and you guys pictures!!

Yes, we won 63-21. We were 63-0 into the 3rd quarter when coach put the 2nd and 3rd string guys in. So they essentially only scored against our junior varsity team. I think this was smart so the younger guys get some experience in tough situations. Before the bye week last week we played a game and went 70-0. They didn't score on the JV guys. The other team was pretty upset and let it be known we were showboating. Where I live in Dinwiddie Va football is a huge deal. We routinely have more fans at away games than the home team. We won states in 2013 with a perfect 15-0 record. The last few years we've been rebuilding and started with a sophomore quarterback. He's now become very good and I hope we do well this season.

Thoughts on the Rebar at day 24:Well said Powernoodle. I'm very happy with the weight for what you get with the Rebar. Honestly, I don't even notice I'm carrying it. Yeah the inside tools are a bit of a pain, but not a deal breaker for me.
In my view, the Rebar is the smallest and lightest of the MT genre that retain enough utility to be useful on a daily basis. Moving down one class on the size scale, the Juice lineup is smaller, and it has its own appeal, but utility suffers as size and weight diminish. So for me the Rebar is as small as I'll go if I still want to have real world utility. Its a good one for those who want to carry all day, everyday as a "just in case" MT. I truly do not know its there when it rides in a vertical pocket on my 5.11 pants.
That being said, I have always preferred MTs with outside-opening blades. To me, it just makes so much more sense because it gives quick access to what is usually the most-used tool - the main blade - with the significant benefit of making the plier handles smooth in the hand. I remember former MTO member JafromMn opine that inside-opening blades were preferable as this configuration kept everything from getting dirty when the MT was closed. JafromMn was a serious, hardcore user of MTs, and his opinion carried some weight with me. But in my daily MT usage as a suave, handsome, urban professional, keeping the MT clean is not a problem. So I definitely prefer the configuration of the Swisstool Spirit, so I can access the blade quickly and not feel the file and other tools digging into my hand when I use the pliers. As much as I love the Rebar, and could make it through life just fine with nothing else, I'll still prefer the Spirit. It is also noteworthy, though, the the Spirit costs substantially more than the Rebar, and that can be a big factor for the budget-minded user.
So what I would like to see someday from Leatherman is a Rebar and ST300 with outside opening blades. Timmy Leatherman obviously knows how to do it (the Wave), and for me this would be the next logical choice in Leatherman micro-evolution.
After carrying this for a bit over a month( I started carrying mine early), I'm a believer that this might be one of the best multi tools out today. I also agree with the inside tool models keeping out dirt and dust. I was cutting grass with a Swisstool X in a sheath, when I was finished I took it out for something, and it was full of grit. I had to wash it out to get the grit out. Outside tools are nice, but they can have issues as well.
The Rebar is definitely going in my rotation once the month is over. I'll probably carry a Swisstool Spirit for a bit but I'm sure the Rebar will get carry time. I've enjoyed this challenge so far and you guys pictures!!

Day 24Thank you, I am gone through the week each week and this year the roses have been doing well with little attention. They truest are "do nothing" roses.
Those look nice LoopCutter. Not only are my roses not blooming this time of year, but I think something's been eating them. :facepalm:
Here are some addition pics for you to enjoy, ( just showing off, not really)

Goofing around with the awl today while watching football games. Made a makeshift squirt bottle. The awl is very sharp, I've used it on aluminum effortlessly as well. An awl is definitely useful on a multi tool imo. (http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160925/76b8108fa214f8f3a1e7e54b856b3c7f.jpg)

Cool. There is a small microbrewery on the way to the Outer Banks NC they brew under strict German purity laws. It's the best beer I've had and I usually stop and buy some on the way home. They're named Weeping Radish, I especially like their Black Radish beer. Good stuff!!Shipyard Pumpkinhead. Shipyard is a local (Maine) based brewery. Good stuff, similar to Sam Adams :tu:Monrogue day 24:What brand is that? Just curious. A great weekend use for the rebar in my opinion.

Good stuff, similar to Sam Adams :tu:Monrogue day 24:What brand is that? Just curious. A great weekend use for the rebar in my opinion.
Beverage :)

Kev's Day 26you guys and your ciders lately ::). I never really got into them, although it's gotten super popular the craft cider movement. A sip tastes great for me. But more than one just had too much sugar... But, the other night I sampled some more and I liked it. And I drank a whole one too :drink:

I really never thought of buying a Rebar because of the whole inside tools deal. I saw others on the forum, and Internet, giving it much praise. I wasn't a believer until now. If I could only pick one MT, it just might be the Rebar. I'll probably carry it a bit longer out of habit, but won't have to worry about forgetting a daily pic. Thanks to the challenge for opening my eyes to the Rebar and all its utility. Probably a little early, but I enjoyed it guys!!

This is exactly why we encourage people to give these challenges a go.
Given the choice some would give up on an unknown tool pretty quickly.
By staying with it for a longer period of time and getting some real world use out of it you tend to bond with the tool and get a better feel for it's capabilities.

This is exactly why we encourage people to give these challenges a go.
Given the choice some would give up on an unknown tool pretty quickly.
By staying with it for a longer period of time and getting some real world use out of it you tend to bond with the tool and get a better feel for it's capabilities.

Only a 2-layer in your pocket, nothing else, nada, zip...
Sounded real tough.
I wondered, would my Vagabond or Pioneer qualify, I think those are 2-layers.?

:tu: :tu: :tu:Wow 2 more days left!! This month really went fast. I enjoyed the challenge and looking at everyone's pictures. I have to say I'm more impressed with the Rebar than I thought I would be. Truth be told I purchased the Rebar just to participate in the challenge but carried it a few weeks prior to the start date.
I really never thought of buying a Rebar because of the whole inside tools deal. I saw others on the forum, and Internet, giving it much praise. I wasn't a believer until now. If I could only pick one MT, it just might be the Rebar. I'll probably carry it a bit longer out of habit, but won't have to worry about forgetting a daily pic.

Definitely been a great challenge and I am not a bit tired of the Rebar as I was with Mr. 300 :whistle: The Supertool 300 is a great MT for work but not as great for a weekend MT unless I am working around the house :tu: The Rebar however has been a great work and weekend MT :cheers:
I may give the traditional folder challenge a go when I get back from my vacation next week :salute: Give me a chance to carry some knives that I have never carried before and some that haven't been carried in a long while :D
This has been a great thread and there have been some awesome pics and excellent uses in here :like:

That's mainly because the traditional, slip joint challenge overlapped with this one. Blame JD for the scheduling. From September 1st to September 15th many of us had to carry both, and use a traditional slip joint as our primary cutting tool and the Rebar for everything else.

It's been twenty-nine days of trying the Rebar out against household chores. But has it, though?
No, it has not been twenty-nine days. It's been much longer than that. I've had the Rebar for almost a year now, and it has handled everything I've thrown at it with ease.
Granted, I am not a heavy user. I'm just a regular guy, coming across regular, everyday tasks, and being able to handle those with just one tool is very pleasing.
The Rebar is light enough for pocket carry, or in the Maxpedition Micro which I tend to carry it in. There are many useful implements which perform phenomenally. My particular favorites are the saw, file, and awl. Another aspect is the design. I enjoy the looks of the Rebar's box-design. Sure, I do appreciate the Charge's one-handed blades, but there's just something that makes me smile when I pull the Rebar out and get to work.
I've slightly customized the Rebar, by adding scissors. I might add a pocket clip, but I do like carrying the Max pouch, so we'll see. A diamond file is also something I'd be interested in, after seeing the mod done. But even out of the box, the Rebar is very capable. Utility, looks, weight, comfort, quality, everything I look for in a multitool is there.
I love my Rebar, and have confidently chosen it as my primary multi-tool. And after all this time, I can say I don't see me looking for a replacement. :multi:

Well the final photo of the 30 day challenge is here, and also the last day of my holiday.
I couldn't think of a better end for the challenge than a nice soak in the hot tub to get the last bits of beach sand out. I've really enjoyed this month, and once I've modded the knifeless rebar to include the surge saw/file holder it will be by daily carry outside of work.

I had wanted to finish up the challenge pics at our football game tonight, but we're currently in a tropical storm and the game is postponed. I really didn't do much today, so in honor of the last day I thought I'd have a beer. It's been a blast guys!!!(http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160930/04ba0077b6b1ec48805b3a43a7257f19.jpg)

Wouldn't mind doing the 111mm one, to have a 30-day badge for a Victorinox as well.
Or maybe the Spirit. Maybe both?
I'll sit out the minimalist, and think about my next one.
Congratulations to all the badge receivers, it was so much fun, and great pics all around! :tu:

It's almost a strange feeling not knowing what I'm carrying now. One thing I enjoy about the challenges is not having to worry about choosing which MT to carry.This challenge for me solidified that I will carry the rebar the majority of the time. But I know what you mean. And The ability to have the freedom to choose is welcomed ;)

The hard part for me was more in line with remembering to take and post a pic everyday. This proved to be challenging in that regard. Probably why there were less than a dozen people in this challenge. Great job everyone! Hats off :hatsoff:
Post by: Monrogue on October 01, 2016, 04:40:59 PM
Yeah, I have a few others that will be nice to carry again. The Rebar is one of the top few, but probably won't be carried for a bit as others need my attention ;) I agree that the pic posting daily is a challenge, especially if you don't use the tool much (like me).It's almost a strange feeling not knowing what I'm carrying now.

Haha yeah. I do have some other tools looking at me kinda funny, like 👋 hey remember me?! It also proved tough to remember to take a picture when in the moment or while actually working your job. So most the time it was a glam shot or tinkering at home after work days for me. Needless to say great little tool.Yeah, I have a few others that will be nice to carry again.

Here's a couple thoughts I have. Feel free to comment with yours:
Pros.
-awl, every multitool in my opinion/use needs an awl
-blade shapes, I like both SE and PE
-file, the cross hatched side is good (not great)
-drivers, the flats and philips are all great, good selection. Seems to cover everything I come across
-replaceable hard wire cutters
-wire stripper
-sheath availability/variety
-ease of modification and compatibility
-overall shape and size
-weight
Cons.
-awl, needs a sharper point imo
-overall precision of hard wire cutters
-file, the single hatched side dosent seem to be good for much
-can opener/cap lifter
Overall satisfaction with the Leatherman Rebar is a solid 8/10 & :tu: :tu:
Overall thoughts. I'm going to continue to keep the rebar as my number one go to edc plier based multitool.

I'm still carrying mine as well, along with the vic pioneer. I'll go back to my surge during the day for work though.

Still carrying it out of habit but I started about 2 weeks before the challenge began. Now that the challenge is over I might put a pair of scissors in sooner or laterI will carry my Rebar going forward for most of my work day purposes. I liked using my ST300 during the July challenge, that really proved to me a MT was a viable solution for me. It was heavy, and my suspenders were requiring frequent adjustments.
Then the Rebar was selected and it did not miss a beat.
If memory serves me correctly, the one tool I did not use during the challenge was the opener.
Guess what, day 31 - Rebar opener was implemented to remove caps from 2 ice cold IBC Root Beers at a local apple festival my wife and I took in today. Sorry, tool with me but not my phone, so no action shot. (http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20161001/ad0121bf6b8115aae3a5405f0e855919.jpg)
For me SCISSORS are not a want on my Rebar, as I also carry a Micra.
The only tool I would change in the future is the file.
For me the Rebar is that tool that is presently 'just right', yet I will keep and eye out for that better tool in my future.

I carried the surge a lot prior to getting the rebar. I've enjoyed the lighter rebar to the point I don't think I'll carry the surge as much in the future. The challenge did make me rethink my edc and its weight.Still carrying it out of habit but I started about 2 weeks before the challenge began.

I'm with you on that. I carried a Pioneer X during the first 10 days of the challenge but left it at home during vacation. I kept the Rebar sharp to the point it handled all my cutting tasks. I just figured scissors would make the Rebar more complete.Still carrying it out of habit but I started about 2 weeks before the challenge began.

I also agree the Rebar file is very lacking for a file. I don't know what other Leatherman file would fit off the top of my head, but I'd like a Charge/Wave style file it it would fit.

But first. A couple thoughts. So, the good ol'Rebar :D This has to be among my favorite Leatherman multitools. The tool load out is really great for me, and the size and form factor is so easy to carry everywhere whether it's in a pocket, pack or tossed in my van (down by the river).Speaking to the con of the awl not being sharp enough, I'm not sure about that. Here is a pic of the awl puncturing an aluminum beer can with ease. We were goofing around after vacation and a friend wanted to shotgun a beer. The awl barely touched the aluminum before it punctured it. This pic didn't make the cut for my daily pic, but here it is a bonus pic from Day 17 lol (http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20161001/5e664e9f41066514b919e7211cc4dcec.jpg)

I think I meant angel, not point. Ala the Alox awl or violently sharp and pointy SOG awl. Where as if you make a hole with the leatherman awl you'll be left with a mangled big ol hole. Of course this is subject to my opinion.
