I want to love this thread so much, but I feel many of my prized PST’s are not represented.

Early Winters PST w/ Blade Etched

Identical PST as mentioned above, no etch, with USA added

JPST US Pat 4238862 w/ Large Lanyard ring on wrong handle.

CC PST much earlier than 1993

1986 BO PST w/ POCKET SURVIVAL TOOL spelled out

I know everyone has been working very hard for an amazingly long time on this, and I’d love to see a renewed effort from everyone to truly blow it out.  I’d personally love to reference this amazing chart, but most every time I come to look at it, I get the feeling that it is oversimplified and what I’m looking for isn’t represented.

I realize that progress and identification is the whole point of this thread, so I will do my part and post photos and descriptions of the tools listed above.  Hopefully we can all benefit and I look forward to seeing the chart become more comprehensive as we move forward.

Thank you to everyone for the incredible work over the years.

Based on my post above, Black Oxide should be listed as first appearing in 1986. 

The 2021 Version 6 of the chart in post #1 mentions it starting around 1993 if I recall, it is in the bottom right hand corner to f the chart.

Thanks Poncho, I certainly have a SAE (Inches Only) ruler version of the Cap Crimper in Black Oxide from 1988 and I believe [mention]wowaboro [/mention] has already documented a SS and BO from 1988 in his PST Components Guide.  I’ll get photos of mine for review but I think it’s safe to say 1993 can be updated to 1988 after review.

Thanks to Brenton (Legend), it turned out quite unexpectedly that the latest production date of the PST is not 1004, as it was thought all these years, but 1104. He discovered and bought one on ebay, and I rechecked my old stocks and also found this rarity.  Now I will correct all my records :)

Late to the game, but here is my first PST1 :

•   Rivets or knurled screws? Rivets, no hollow base as far as I can see
•   Lanyard attachment? Y
•   (Old) small diameter or (new) large diameter plier pivot? Not sure
•   LEATHERMAN alone cast into plier pivot? Or with USA? Or TOOL? LEATHERMAN® TOOL REG'D TM1325473 (does not say US)
•   A hard wire cutter notch? N
•   Handles stamped with what? (see pictures in next post for examples) Big letters Leatherman mid 80's ?
•   Inch ruler only, or inch/metric? Grr… Inch only
•   Date codes? N
•   Drop point knife blade or clip point? (saber?) Drop point
•   Knife blade tang stamped LEATHERMAN alone? Or with USA? Or JAPAN? Japan
•   Screwdrivers: pivot-in or pivot-out? pivot in

I'm guessing I got a Japanese changes II, right ?

Apart from the inches only, this thing is a beaut'.

Got luck on mine, it was part of an exchange (I got my first PST from Aloha and he started the fever), cause I felt I needed a backup and get my hands on a PST 1… It was a Japan one, didn't even know that before I opened the package.

Well I'm brand new here, and probably wont frequent these pages, but wanted to offer another PST example I inherited from my father. Also has the original leather case!

I think I'm looking at an early JPST, post 1985 but pre 1988. Pretty much identical to the Japanese PSTs I see in this thread but no Japan on the blade tang.

Is that still a JPST or am I looking at a rando US PST?

// PST Finishes

“Most have seen a Stainless Steel and Black Oxide finish on a Pocket Survival Tool. 

The 24k Gold Plated version was produced for the 10th Anniversary of Leatherman Tool Group, limited to 200 pieces. 

There is however a lesser known Diamond Like Coating (DLC) finish which was first developed to meet U.S. Armed Forces standards for wear resistance in black tools issued.  Seen here, third from the left, is a 0696 PST as issued to the United States Marine Corps.”
