In 1983, Tim Leatherman started selling a novel gadget for DIYers: a compact, folding device loaded with helpful tools based around an easy-to-grip pair of pliers. Fast forward four decades, and Leatherman has grown into a giant in the world of multi-tools, with a deep product lineup trusted by DIYers, outdoor enthusiasts, and anyone who prizes a handy, well-made tool.
To celebrate 40 years of manufacturing high-quality tools, the Leatherman Garage (the brand’s skunkworks innovation arm known for releasing limited-edition tool and knife designs) will release the Batch #005: 40th Anniversary multi-tool on 5 July 2023.
