Description

The lightweight Glider™ is a premium folder with a striking, hollow saber ground MagnaCut® sheepsfoot blade that features a fully-radiused blade spine, hidden lanyard loop and sculptured lines for smooth, everyday control. At a mere 3.7 oz. (about the weight of a deck of cards), it’s lightweight and comfortable to carry. A faceted handle design with only two visible fasteners gives it a clean, elegant look. The deep-carry pocket clip ensures secure stow on-the-go and is reversible for left-or-right hand carry. The patent-pending Delta™ Lock prioritizes safety and is easy to use. It includes a lanyard and bead that fits both Leatherman flat bits and standard ¼ inch bits. Also includes a two-sided Torx #8 (for pocket clip screw) and Torx #6 bit (for thumb stud screw). Available in three colors: Alpine, Jet Black, and Okra with a Cerakote® finish for extra durability. Made in the USA.

"Received the Glider with a chip in blade strait out of the box. Contacted customer service and was told they had no more blades for replacement and offered 15% back as compensation with a suggestion that I could carefully grind down the blade. With a 25 year warranty I would think they would take care of their customers better. Makes me question the quality of leatherman products"

This may be the knife!!!

"I hesitated for a while due to price! I daily carry the ARC and I have had other knives! When I kept seeing descriptions of this being a forever knife and a tool, I decided to take the shot! I couldn’t be happier! I’ve had it for almost 2 months of daily carry (with my ARC) and just love the knife! It has weight, but for what it gives, it’s a great trade off. I enjoy how sliced the blade is! Can’t recommend enough! Price is high, but in 2026, what isn’t! This will be in my pockets forever with my other Leatherman!"

"I use my Leatherman products on a daily basis but this one is sitting next to the collectible drawer. It is so well made and designed it could be knife art sort of speak. For now it sits on my desktop and I enjoy it’s presence."

Rene B. (5/5)

Weight and action

"The knife is beautiful but the action is terrible for a non assist knife and it weighs a ton, if they could fix these 2 problems i would look at the knife differently as of now I can not recommend the knife to anyone. Thank you"
