Reviews
A bit bulky
"A bit bulky but a very nice knife. Bring back the free P4!!! This thing is just a thick with far less tools."
Yes.
"Locking Lobe Hinge = High IQ Different tool steel for Tools and Blade = China Quality Multitools. Great blade. Snapping Tools. Still best knife I have ever owned - I have two."
Great tool w/ a major flaw & poor customer service
"I usually avoid writing negative reviews, but Leatherman has gotten under my skin. I've been a lifelong Leatherman fanboy, and this knife is my favorite tool I've had thus far. It offers some legitimate accessory tool functionality without settling for a "lesser" knife blade. The blade is large and rock solid - zero play when it is locked in position. It's made from a quality alloy that holds an edge. However - I am on my third one of these tools, as the belt clip has snapped off of all three of them. It always happens when I brush up against something and the little flared portion catches an object - a box, a door frame, a wall corner, etc. It doesn't bend, it snaps - brittle failure. The belt clip does not match the tool in terms of strength and overall durability - it's oddly small compared to the size of the tool. I would've been more understanding but I reached out to Leatherman to simply ask for some replacement belt clips, not a new or repaired tool. I did not receive a response; this is infuriating given that this failure mode has occurred three times. A lack of response to a legitimate quality or design flaw is very poor and it's insulting as a historically devout customer. I can't say I don't recommend the tool, just be careful when you may be bumping into something with your hips. Leatherman - I'd greatly appreciate it if you would address warranty claim number WRC0065385."
General Purpose knife
"Brilliant knife to carry for all those little tasks that show up daily."
I dropped it from 20
"I dropped it from 20 feet while setting up my tree stand it bounced off a rung of the ladder and opened itself then hit the ground not a mark on it and works likes nothing happened"
So so
"Heavy. The knife release is not good, makes you release towards your hand. I am sure it will stand up to a lot but."
Free K4 great every day carry
"I like this Free K4 however it is very heavy in the pocket or on the clip. What would it weigh with a non stainless steel body? Would Micarta work for this knife and create significant weight savings? Thx"
"Excellent piece"
Rust ?
"I've been a long time supporter of Leatherman. At the moment I'm a little irked. I paid top dollar at REI for the Free P2. It's the best knife I've owned. So i thought. . . then after getting it wet and not drying it off you would think the stainless steel would not RUST. . . Well it did and I'm not happy. The steel is junk. I also had the knife on the rebar snap on me like a dry twig. I'm pretty upset. I like your product but you went and cut corners. Unfortunately i think I'm going to have to move on. ."
