Not seeing much info or advertising on this, but it is a rather neat tool that definitely deserves some rep.
So here it is:
You may be lookin at this and thinkin “what the deuce?”
This is the Leatherman leap, a multitool designed for a younger age group of users.
Leatherman recently unvieled this tool at SHOT Show 2014 and plans to release it in summer of 2014.
It comes with your standard pliers, as well as outside access tools that lock and can be released via the lock button on the outside.
All of them are designed to be easier to use with smaller hands.
What’s neat about this tool is that the blade comes with the tool, but not on it.
When a parent or guardian thinks that the user is responsible enough, the blade can be permanently attached to the tool.
I think this is an awesome tool, as it is a great introduction to multitools and knives for kids.
Here is the youtube video of it at SHOT Show:
