When Leatherman launches a new product, most who love the wilder side of life tend to sit up and take notice. But we usually expect it to be a multi-tool. After all, the Portland-based brand is the pioneer of multi-use tools featuring blades, screwdrivers, corkscrews, and more that hikers and campers never leave home without. But while the new launch from Leatherman is still pocket-friendly and enormously practical, there's a sharp difference: they're all knives.
Leatherman's new knife range isn't a total departure for the brand – it's dabbled in limited-edition blades in the past. But now it looks like the brand, which launched the very first multitool over 40 years ago, is taking a confident step into the competitive world of premium folding knives.
