Leatherman Signal - is LM making a survival multi?

[in_sympathy]

I'd like to handle one but not at $120.

That's an arrogant price alright

Listed as $262.00 on Leatherman Australia!

Holy Molly, that's too much even in Australian dollars


Dream. Wish. Leave nothing undone. Repeat.

I pretty sure they wouldn't take it away but they could add a bit carrier in the package go a minimal amount. I just wish they would replace the saw with a blade exchanger like the Surge.

Can't be done from design perspective - has to be a single unit since it is a survival item. Imagine loosing all those replaceable files and saws during some catastrophe


Dream. Wish. Leave nothing undone. Repeat.

Hmm...you have a point, have to find a way to somehow attach them too.

Better save your money for the trip home. Still counting on those this summer.

Yeah but none of us actually buy them locally do we?
We buy on the interweb and pay 1/3 the local price.

None of us does but the general public is gullible.

  Thanks for your kind words, mate.

You had to show that guy to the World, hadn't you...

Now everybody knows what a tool our Prime Minister is...

What are the cut outs/channels on the hammer? Also, their appears to be some sort of clip or something added. Any thoughts?

Leatherman Utility / Survival Tool?

If it is based on a MUT frame, I'll really be looking forward to it.

It isn't really based on a MUT frame, per se, but more of a MUT-inspired tool.  I've gotten to play with what's very close to being the finished tool, and it's VERY cool.  I really think people are going to love it.

[Kampfer]

It is a mini MUT, not a large Skeletool

[Rossko07]

What size are the blades? Wave or surge length?

[sawman]

I just don't see them selling for that much when you can get a Rebar for $40/50 which has everything. I bet the Rebar is one of their top sellers.

Everything but the the Rebar is a sweet deal. unless you NEED  a mt oho blades, the rebar is awsome. It's lighter and more compact than the wave without losing capability.

[Kampfer]

What size are the blades? Wave or surge length?

2.7", Skeletool sidekick wingman size

That's a joke right?

I wish it was a joke.

[tommywp]

I've read most of this thread, but not all, so apologies if this has been discussed. It looks like all of the smaller tools will need to be used with the handles open...like how you use the driver on the MUT/skeletool. Is this right? Seems ok for the driver and can opener,  but weird for the awl and any other tool that a modder might swap in.

Has anyone seen a release date?

I will tell you what I know later when I got home.

[rescue4500]

seems to me like I read somewhere that it would be august or septmber  maybe it was one of the websites that has it available for preorder..... http://www.thepublicsafetystore.com/leatherman-signal-multitool.html?kw=leatherman-signal-multitool&cmp=YSWFDS&gclid=CMa8grzI9MYCFYM9aQodMIUD2w    according to this the first week of august

[sawman]

I saw one place with a pre-order priced at $99.99. Still, a bit pricey for me.

This tool seems to offer too little for the space it takes up - if that makes sense - kinda like the Skeletool.
