Leatherman's Fuse Extra-Large Multitool

The Leatherman Fuse multitool packs 12 tools into a lean, 4-inch frame. The all-locking blades include an extra-long knife blade and three extended screwdrivers that help you reach into tight spaces, and the Zytel handle grips give you a firm and comfortable hold every time. The Fuse incorporates Leatherman's new jaw design with stronger pliers and longer wire cutters, plus a wood/metal file, scissors and bottle/can opener to round out the portable collection. And now, the Fuse features an all-blades locking system that is 50-percent stronger than Leatherman’s original locks. With a slim chassis and an assortment of the most-needed tools, Fuse puts portability at the forefront of your need to be prepared

Key User Features:

The Fuse's interior features are supremely easy to access -- just swing open the handles and rotate the blades out using the convenient nail nicks. The scissors open the same way, with a swift rotation and a nail nick; and when the scissors are fully extended, they lock into place. All of the tools available in the Fuse are made from 100-percent stainless steel, engineered to the optimum grade hardness for each individual tool.

The Fuse features a system of all-locking blades. To release the interior blades, just press the grooved portion of the push-button lock and carefully rotate the blade back inside the tool. These blades are straight, and they may be sharpened by using standard sharpening methods, for easy maintenance.

The Fuse has a slim chassis and an assortment of the most-needed tools for real versatility and portability.

The Leatherman Tool Group and its History of Quality

In 1975, Leatherman Tool Group founder Tim Leatherman was inspired by leaky pipes and a cranky car on a budget trip to Europe -- and thus the idea for his first pocket survival tool was conceived. Since then, Leatherman has become an internationally recognized company with hundreds of employees and a wide variety of durable, versatile, stylish products. Created with bold designs and truly rugged construction, Leatherman products are a perfect addition for tool kits, emergency sets, and glove compartments everywhere.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great addition to the Leatherman line, January 4, 2005

This review is from: Leatherman 830025 Fuse Pocket Multitool with Leather Sheath (Tools & Home Improvement)

As a PC tech, this tool has been indispensable in my job. I've owned several, my favorite being the Wave, but I like this one because it's lightweight and has just the tools I need (after all, who really needs a saw in computer work?) The nice thing about this one is all the blades lock, and the lock release is easy to use. Another nice feature is the "get only the blade you need" feature. On my old Wave, I would pull out the scissors and the screwdrivers would all come out with it. With the Fuse, if you want just the scissors, you'll get just the scissors.

While the tool itself is built very well and feels solid, my one gripe would be the leather sheath that came with it. It just feels cheap. Maybe I was spoiled with the deluxe sheath that my Wave has, but I would think that Leatherman would include high-quality sheaths to complement their high-quality tools.

While I would never consider replacing my Wave for my outdoor adventures or simple home improvement projects, the Fuse is a worthy addition to my collection and is a great asset in my job. I would definitely recommend it.

This review is from: Leatherman 830025 Fuse Pocket Multitool with Leather Sheath (Tools & Home Improvement)

This is a high quality tool, as would be expected from Leatherman. It has a nice, solid feel and all joints are snug. I carry it with me at all times for those odd jobs that I don't want to run out to my tool box. As would be expected, I am more likely to fix those little problems when the tools are close at hand.

This tool comes with a combination plier/needlenose plier/wire cutter/stripper head, a nicely sized knife, three screwdrivers, a lanyard ring, scissors (which are perfectly leveraged), and a combination can opener/bottle opener. All blades are locking, with a nice release mechanism. In addition, there are well thought out "extras", such a ruler stamped into the case in inches and centimeters which is accurate enough for those quickie measurements that don't require extreme precision.

While not as comprehensive as some multi-tools, I have found the Fuse to be a nice compromise between functionality and portability. Highly recommended!

I really like the new Leatherman Fuse. I was attracted to it because it has scissors. I use it for hiking. The pliers are perfect for removing cactus needles and the scissors are useful for cutting cloth or moleskin, etc. I carry it in my briefcase also. It comes in handy in any situation.
