If you haven’t seen anything about the Leatherman Free, it’s amazing, and we’re going to tell you all about it. It has all the durability and functionality you love about a Leatherman. It’s still made in the USA. However, it easily opens with one hand. Not only the pliers open one-handed, all the other tools are also easy to use with one hand.

When you push your thumb between the plier handles and break the magnetic bond, the tool can swing around and to open the pliers much like a balisong. From the closed position, use can use your thumb to open the other tools.

All of the inner tools work off a universal locking system, so once a tool is open, it firmly locks in place. It unlocks by simply lifting the tab associated with that set of tools.

The Leatherman Free comes in two models, the P2 and the P4.  The P4 is bigger and beefier and has a total of 21 tools, including two 420HC drop point blades – one plain edge and one fully serrated edge – as well as a saw. The P2 has 19 tools. It’s about an ounce lighter than the P4 and comes with a partially serrated 420 HC drop point blade. Both models are easily carried with either a pocket clip or the included ballistic nylon sheath.
