That's an easy one. Get all three :)


Oh.......that isn't even in question.  I will eventually get all three.  It's just that I have to prioritize.  I also have slight SAK and Case knife addictions that I have to attend to.   :D   And a wife that doesn't share my multitool, SAK and Case knife collecting passions.

I was just thinking, maybe leatherman still uses the punch outs that are considered to them bad, they just don't put the leatherman name on them.

Maybe that's what that is-it could of even been punched out at the leatherman factory in oregon???

One of the few current production Leatherman tools that I don't own is the Crunch.  For some reason it just never caught my attention.  Lately, I've been thinking about getting one.  I don't know whether it's just to fix my multitool jones or what.  At the least it's a nice addition to my small but growing collection.  I've been wanting to get a couple discontinued Leathermans I don't own like the Flair and Sideclip first but after reading this thread my decision to wait is weakening............... :ahhh

You should be able to pick those two up pretty easily I'd have thought Allan. Good luck :tu:

Well done Allen , it took me over a year to nab all the retired LM's & I tried hard too ignore the Ti & Xti (futile ploy to save $ ::) :D). Now Allen does your family include the Juice Pro , Juice SC2 & Core  :pok: :pok: :D :D :D. I think a Riveted PST is mandatory too  :D :D :D :D.

Massive reanimation of a old thread.  :D  It occurred to me that I actually reach for my Jack Pyke "Crunch" quite often but I doubt it's well remembered much these days.  As Dave said; it's by no means a Leatherman in terms of quality, but as a compact pair of locking grips it's perfectly OK for what I tend to grab it for.  Mostly it saves me going to the garage to grab a dedicated tool.
