Leatherman Saved My Life

I was driving in my Volkswagen Vanagon camper when out of the blue a car pulls out of a side street and t-bones my van. ... Read the Rest of This Story

Tell Us Your Tale

OK, you voyeur, you. Enough of reading other people's stories. It's time you told your own tale of gripping heroism or even just neat DIY'ism. We know there's a Shakespeare in you somewhere. Don't make us use the Steens to find it.

Kansas City Needs More "Kicks"

This is not your typical Leatherman story, but I like my Leatherman so much I have to let you know what I did to get more. For the last few weeks my fiancé has been on me to pick a gift for my groomsmen and I blew it off. Well, the wedding is November 10th and on November 6th I was using my "Kick" to tighten the wheels on my luggage for the honeymoon and I figured, I am a genius, I will just give my groomsmen these handy things. Little did I know what was in store . . .



I have 5 groomsmen and at the last minute my fiancé told me we need gifts for the ushers, readers and her Dad. I said fine, no big deal "who can't use a Leatherman?" No one I know couldn't put it to use. So out the door I flew after looking up the closest dealer, because I thought I would get them engraved on wed I had to hurry so they would be ready for the rehearsal dinner on Friday. Target was a big store shouldn't be a problem I thought, for 12 Leatherman "Kick"s. First Target I bought 3, second Target across the city, I bought 4. Another Target a few miles away I bought 3 more and finally I found a Target on the other side of town with two.



I appreciate your product and believe the folks that receive them will as well. A little side note . . .There are 2 Targets in the southern Johnson County, KS area and 2 Targets in the eastern Jackson County, MO area who need more Leatherman "Kick”s. They seem to have a hard time keeping them on the shelves when a procrastinating self proclaimed genius (I think you guys would agree because of my choice) buys them out. Thanks for your time and continue making one hell of a product.
