It looks to me like the phillips driver on the rebar is the same size as the ones on the fuse kick and blast, if so then you could use the bit kit that has the adaptor and use standard 1/4 inch bits with it as well.  We will have to wait and see to be sure.

I love what I see, and this one maybe be destined to be my favorite MT.

Of course, I have that hope with every MT purchase. 

I'm sure I'll end up with a Rebars in stainless and BO.  I think I would have liked it to be just a tad smaller, but Timmy didn't ask me.  :)

Notice also that the white painted lettering and ruler markings are no longer present on the black oxide tool.  Thats an improvement from the first protos.

Did you guys (Bob and Grand) try comparing the angle of the open plier heads of Rebar, Charge and/or ST300? Were they around the same angle? whose was wider?

Thanks.

Hmmm, we did not do any actual comparison photos Max, but the Rebar opened quite wide. I would estimate it opened as far as the Charge or Wave.









Oh, and speaking of Wave and Charge, my guess is that this Rebar plier head might soon be making an appearance on those two models as well. :salute:

If it doesn't officially I'm certain there will be a few of them floating around here!  :D

It's typical- no matter how many shots we take on how many different angles, it's never enough to keep everyone happy or answer every question!

I am not sure if this is a negative comment implying that we ask too much from you two for your trip, or a positive comment saying that this tool is drawing lots of attention and its good to see many fans of a MT regardless of it being the rebar.

If it's the first of the two, then I have shown my appreciation in one of the appreciation threads. I wasn't necessarily looking for new pics but just what you observed when you opened the pliers of Rebar and/or charge and/or ST 300.

I agree with you too, the Rebar was my favorite new tool of the Show. :salute: Hopefully they will be available for sale soon and I can get my own, then I promise to take lots of comparison pics for you! :D

It was just a comment that guys here are so interested in any details that there could never be enough.  If I ever suggest that folks are asking too much or trying to get too much info then I might as well close the forum.  A site like this is all about asking questions and getting answers, and I'm sure I could take a thousand pictures and folks would still have questions because people are so interested in the subject matter.

Nothing derogatory implied or intended.

I think Bob handled it more than I did- I was trying to take as many photos as I could as fast as I could since we weren't certain how much time we had.  To me it didn't really feel any different than any of Leatherman's other "box type" designs.

When opened and using the pliers, I suppose the closest tool to compare it to would be the Pulse, what with the rolled metal edges and all. With the tool "closed" and using the knife, there really is nothing to compare the feel to. It fits in your hand way better than any flat-sided tool does.  :)

I'm a (very minor) knife modifier/retailer and I asked one of my distributors about the ReBar the last time I phoned in an order.   Guy on the phone yells over his shoulder, "ANYONE KNOW WHEN LEATHERMAN IS GOING TO RELEASE THE REBAR???"  I hear mumbling in the background.  "Guy here says not until the Fall."
Well, that certainly is a bummer...if its really true and they weren't just blowing me off.   >:(

While I was interested in all of the new tools introduced at this year's Shot Show, the Rebar was by far and away the one that appealed to me most. :salute: I'm anxiously awaiting the release date also, as I foresee it becoming my new edc tool.

According to the website, doesn't have the pocket clip.

But since it's just a smaller Supertool 300, and the supertool doesn't have a clip i didn't think this would either.

I as hoping, since it is smaller than the ST300 an would fit in a pocket, that they would include a pocket clip option.

I don't believe there is any plan for a pocket clip for the Rebar. It's about the size and weight of the Blast and there was never a pocket clip for that.

I added a Nite Ize clip to a Blast. It works great. I suspect it would work on the Rebar as well.
