Welcome to Talking Points, a series that looks at what makes certain products worth talking about, brought to you by Gear Patrol Studios.
If you spend ample time exploring the outdoors, carrying a multi-tool is more than a good idea — it’s mandatory. But not all multi-tools are created equal when it comes to being prepared for a worst-case scenario.
Enter the Leatherman Signal, the ultimate multi-tool for seasoned adventurers who want to be ready for the unexpected.

Leatherman Signal Multi-Tool
A true EDC tool
Measuring 4.5 inches long and weighing just 7.5 ounces, the Signal is loaded with a whopping 19 tools that will cover you during mundane tent repairs and unexpected emergencies, alike.
Every tool, save for the plier head, locks securely into position for safe and confident one-handed use, and many of the features can be accessed without unfolding the multi-tool.
You’ve also got options when it comes to how you carry the Signal. If you’re partial to the pocket, the included removable clip keeps the tool securely within reach. An integrated carabiner and belt holster provide additional options, too.
