Leatherman Super Tool 300 - The Original

The most recent Leatherman Super Tool 300 has more than 10 years of compiled consumer input and engineering skill in each feature. Each one is engineered to address the user who expects strength, immediate access to tools, and comfort for tough jobs.

Possibly the most vital feature of the ST300; the pliers have been optimized for strength. In order to maintain the balance of materials when leaving room for the new removable wire cutters, more steel was added to important areas, making them by far the strongest pliers we've ever made. In addition the neck of the pliers is sloped for easy operation within tight spaces.

Cutting wire-regular, stranded, or hard-is a common application on the job. When frequent, heavy pressure is used, cutters can end up being dented and dull, which means the pliers will stick and jam up. By making the regular/hard-wire cutters removable it is easy to sharpen or replace them with ease (replacement cutters available separately). Further to this, by optimizing the heat treatment process and replacing the standard stainless steel with premium 154CM the wire cutters will hold an edge three times longer for maximum durability.

The idea of "clumping" was originally launched with the first Super Tool. By pulling on only one tool, you would get them all from the handle at once, this includes the knives. To enhance safety, the new ST300 has just that, "Edge-safety Clumping". If you pull on either of the two knifes they are the only blades that will come out. Conversely if you pull on any of the other features the sharp-edged ones stay in place.

The ST300 straight blade is hollow ground for manageable sharpening. Screwdrivers are in the sizes tradesman use most and are also hollow ground for a better fit. The handles are rounded for comfort and have cut outs on the side to instantly access blades when wearing bulky work gloves. The locks on the ST300 have been beefed-up to guarantee full engagement when the features are under heavy use.

ST300 is in store now and supplied with Leatherman's market leading, 25 year warranty. Leatherman Store is showing the retail price as £91.95 for the stainless steel model and £105.95 for the black oxide version with a cap crimper.

History of the Super Tool:

The original Leatherman Super Tool was introduced n 1994. The original multi tool of its size and strength, it was an instant success selling more than one million units in the first two years alone. In 2001 adjustments were made and the Super Tool 200 was launched. The new ST200 featured moon shaped locks on the handle sides, as opposed to the original all-in-one locking system. Customers still raved about the tool's strength and many applications, but the locks and "clumping" were not as user-friendly as they would have liked. Enter the Core.

In 2005 Leatherman re-designed the ST200 placing new locks on the back sides of the handles and doing away with "clumping". The jaws were also re-designed for strength and the new tool was labeled the Core. Without realising the popularity of this all new tool and how quickly it would be adopted for every day use on job sites around the world, the lock design and tool accessibility was not what it could be. Fast forward to 2009 and the Super Tool 300. This new design, specifically for heavy-duty, on-the-job use is certain to find its place in tool belts, gear boxes, saddle bags, MOLLE vests, and center consuls the world over.
