Durable Multi-Tool Designs

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Leatherman Signal Multi-Tool Has Every Necessary Household Tool

— April 24, 2018 — Art & Design
Designed to hold every compact survival and household focused tool, the Leatherman Signal Multi-Tool excels in any type of scenario.

Featuring a combination knife, awl, saw, safety whistle, fire starting rod and even a diamond-coated tool sharpener, the compact device can be used on the trail or in any garage. Made with the brand's famous high-quality steel and plastic, the device was created to last a lifetime and be passed down through generations. The needlenose plier and regular pliers are set beside the wire cutters, a flat end for hammering and a stripper. In other words, it offers organized placement based on specific uses.

Finishing the tool off is the bottle opening end, ensuring the new Leatherman Signal Multi-Tool has covered all bases of utility.
