Anyone Know What Leatherman This Is (The Sentinel, 1996)?

[Ben X]

Here is a link to an album of screenshots I got, not a whole lot of good ones, but just wondering if anyone recognizes what model it is, airdate was 3/27/96. I am not that familiar with Leatherman, I only bought one, but it was because of this show! Can't tell if it's a PST, ST, etc.

Well, I'm no expert but I'm pretty sure it's a Supertool

x2 im almost certain thats a older ST 

[DaveK]

Yup - I'd say its a Supertool too

[Ben X]

Oh boy, so do I buy a 1st generation to be like the show, or purchase the most recent incarnation with all its improvements?




...So, what's a Super Tool 300 going to set me back?

[nuphoria]

What's all this "or" business about? 

[Zed]

The original is a great tool, but the new one is a improvement, plus i think there starting to sell cheaper on amazon etc, you wont be disappointed with the st300 or the old version,

I used to love that show as a kid 

The word you're looking for is "AND". "OR" is not an acceptable conjunction around these parts.

Whilst this is true, the only way you are going to properly appreciate the improvements in the ST300, is to own an original Supertool too. And a Supertool 200. And a Core. You probably need to get the BO versions as well as the Stainless versions, and maybe the versions with cap crimpers.

   this is true, although i had the core, then the st300, and then for a little while the original ST, but ive not had a 200 yet      but daves right your have to try them all

Who, that 300 is close in price to the Spirit, around $50 on Amazon! Much cheaper than I would have expected. Talk about torn! Swiss precision and outwardly accessible tools or the ruggedness and replaceable cutters of the 300? See, if I start collecting multi's the way I collect SAK's, I'll REALLY be broke for the rest of my 20's

the wave is good as well   

the st300 next to a swisstool of course the spirit is smaller than both , the wave is smaller 4inch tool

[Ben X]

Oh wow! Thanks for the comparison video, I have a Swiss Tool that I find too large to pocket carry, and the ST300 is much larger than I expected- very solid size though!

Found a Blast on clearance today so I picked it up- not quite a Super Tool but it was a good price so I might just keep it Part of me wants to sell it and get the Super Tool 300 though

Alright, decision made, posting the NIB clamshell Blast over in the For Sale forum
