Leatherman Free K4 Grey Knife

I never write product reviews. However, this tool has come in handy more times than I can remember. All tools are handy, no unnecessary ones are taking up space. My only three improvements on this design would be:- Better knife steel. 420HC is decent and gets the job done, but I have to touch up the blade quite a bit.- Add tweezers.- Pocket clip has a tendency to get in the way. Never created too big of a hotspot, but I could see how some would complain.

I have owned two of these. This knife immediately became my EDC. The blade geometry is perfect for utility work of all kinds. The handle is extremely comfortable (once you switch the pocket clip) and allows for good control-similar to a Corsican Sperone. The tools are all great and the scissors are a must in my opinion.My only criticism is the color. When you use a knife with multiple tools you often put it down while working. The dark grey color is a detriment to finding the knife in many locations-inside buildings with lots of cement or grey carpeting-which is pretty much every modern building. I don't understand why Leatherman has only have one color option for this knife while offering multiple options for the model sans scissors. Everyone needs scissors and ... MoreI have owned two of these. This knife immediately became my EDC. The blade geometry is perfect for utility work of all kinds.

Everyone needs scissors and everyone needs to find their knife again. I lost my first because the color was too camo for working on machinery.

I was a bit disappointed by this. I was hoping it was smaller. It is a pretty large and heavy knife/tool to carry everyday. This would be fantastic for camping, hiking and/or hunting. Or in lieu of carrying a full-sized Leatherman. But for an everyday all day carry knife this is not a comfortable choice.Again, the quality of this knife/tool is by far top notch, just not what I was looking for.
