Love that Red! I have the Storm Grey and love the compactness and weight of it. I was just commenting via another thread on mine the one end of it looks really sloppy the way it's been riveted together because of all the tools and metal they've crammed into it. How's does yours look nice and straight?
The S2 is a solid little tool. I've often wondered if the sides would be even if they lost the bottle opener. Can/bottle openers are the least used tools on my MTs - I could do without them. The S2 minus the opener would be perfect.

I could happily live without the opener on it and it would make it even. It seems like an afterthough on LMs part - quick, cram an opener in where it doesn't fit!Thanks for the replies chaps... I can assure you that review writing is a lot more fun than a 10k word dissertation on ATM gene methylation in Hodgkins lymphoma. I think I stopped writing after that
In all probability, yes. Although I finished researching this topic a couple of years ago so there may be newer papers available giving a definitive answer. The cells I was working with were almost definitely mutated B cells... and I had to laser cut 100's of the little bast*rds out of tissue samples locked in a small room going crazy
Let's talk packaging Leatherman, what's up with that?! Do we really need a ginormous blister pack in these ecologically sound times? I think not personally, and even given the size of the great big tin in the package, it was still utterly OTT. The tin however, is probably going to be useful so I forgive them this faux pas.
Great review lassie, you've certainly got a talent for it

It's to prevent shoplifting, you can tuck a big blister pack in your pocket. Leatherman offer both blister pack and cardboard box packaging and retailers decide which to order. Big box store tend to buy blister, while the smaller stores that keep stuff behind locked counter tend to order box.
