Versatile and high quality multi-tool
The ease of employing this multitool is among the best , multitools available, and you can one hand open and close every tool on the Arc. All sharpened edges are evenly ground, the action on the scissors is incredible. The wire cutters and stripper worked well on 10AWG copper wire. The diamond coated file works great on soft metals, I'm very happy with most of the tools on the Arc. Where it could be better: swapping the leatherman bit driver system with a standard, non-proprietary bit driver would be best. The included leatherman bit sleeve does not have the t6/t8 bit, which of course you need if you are working on many lightweight folding knives (you have to purchase the whole, 2 sleeve set to get that bit). It is quite a jump in price over every other mainstream multitool option, which in my opinion the price is reasonable when considering the manufacturing costs of adding CPM Magnacut to the stable of leatherman materials. Super-fast shipping as usual, thanks KC.
