LeathermanSignal®
If you plan to set foot in the woods, particularly with plans to set up camp or cook a meal, pick up a Signal. Equipped with 19 total tools, the Signal outfits users with outdoor adventure-centric specialty utensils in addition to familiar standbys. Spark a fire with the Ferro rod, cut kindling or blaze a trail with the 420HC combo blade and stay secure with a built-in emergency whistle – all packed into a 4.5-inch package.
LeathermanFREE® K4
The streamlined K4 FREE pocket knife multi-tool utilizes Leatherman’s genre-bending magnetic architecture to ensure easy, one-hand use and drastically reduced wear and tear. Packed into the K4 are all of the K2 FREE features with one added utilitarian bonus: spring-loaded scissors.
LeathermanMicra
Leatherman credits the Micra’s popularity with hobbyists and anglers to its having “the best spring-action scissors around.” In place of pliers, this smaller multi-tool (just 2.5 inches closed) can handle delicate tasks all day long, thanks to its light weight (1.8 oz) and 10 invaluable tools. Perfect for pockets, sewing kits and tackle boxes.
