Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The Blast multitool's compact folded shape measures just 4 inches long.

The Full-Sized Blast Multitool from Leatherman

Loaded with the most requested features, the Leatherman Blast is ready for work. Longer blades mean easier slicing, sawing, filing and more, while the Zytel handle inserts provide a comfortable, reliable grip. And in this model, new designs for the handles and pliers help the Blast sustain more than double the squeezing load of the original PST. This multitool set includes all the handy, flip and fold-out tools you'd expect from an industry-leading brand -- all with 100-percent stainless steel construction, manufactured to the optimum grade hardness for each tool. The Blast boasts an open-tooth saw design that allows easy starting and cutting on the fly, plus long wire cutters for a lengthy reach. These pliers are especially designed for a large squeezing load, with a unique jaw design that adds durability.

Multitool Capabilities:

• Needlenose pliers
• Regular pliers
• Wire cutters
• Hard-wire cutters
• Clip-point knife
• Wood/metal file

• Scissors
• Large screwdriver
• Small screwdriver
• Phillips screwdriver
• Small bit driver
• Ruler (8 inch/19 cm)
• Bottle/can opener
• Wire stripper
• Lanyard attachment
• One double-ended bit

To expand your Blast's functionality, try adding the removable bit driver or the universal tool adapter (both sold separately)

The Blast comes with one double-ended screwdriving bit.

Key User Features

The Blast features all-locking blades. To release the interior blades, all you have to do is press the grooved portion of the push-lock button and carefully rotate the blade. The regular and hard-wire cutters are located within the plier jaws, and the straight knife blades may be easily sharpened using standard sharpening methods.

To access the interior features of the Blast, just grip the handles and swing them open. Each interior blade can be opened using the nail nicks, and so can the scissors. When the scissors are fully extended, they lock securely into place for safety and ease of use.

Optional Accessories (not included)

The Removable Bit Driver Accessory is sold separately, and makes a great addition to the Blast multitool. This removable bit driver works by installing right on top of the integrated Phillips screwdriver blade. You can also add the Universal Tool Adapter to your Blast arsenal. This adapter is a standard 1/4-inch hex drive that locks in three positions.

Warranty

All Leatherman products are covered by a 25-year limited warranty. If within 25 years from the purchase date of your genuine Leatherman tool you find any defect in material or workmanship, you can count on the manufacturer to make it right with fast warranty service. To obtain warranty service, return your tool to Leatherman Tool Group. Depending on the tool defect, they will decide whether to repair your tool or replace it with a product of equal or greater value. No variations, upgrades or refunds are offered.

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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very good multi-tool, November 13, 2006

By	weirdo_106 - See all my reviews

I got this as a present for Christmas of 2005. This is one of the best multi-tools on the market. Along with knives and plier heads, it also has a saw blade, screwdriver heads, and many other bits.

I am in the U.S. Army. Numerous Soldiers, who need a compact multi-tool, personally buy different varieties of Leathermans .

This is definitely worth getting.

1.0 out of 5 stars Broke twice under normal use, once new, once fixed under warranty., February 1, 2008

By	Jeffrey A. Smith (Philadelphia, PA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The tab which secures and releases the tools snapped twice while I was closing the tool under normal use. It is a bad design. There is just a small hinge nub which broke. The tool is also very stiff to open and close. My previous Leatherman, a Wave several years old, was a dream until I lost it.I couldn't remember the model name and I bought this one instead. Despite others with good experience, mine is totally unsatisfactory.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent high quality product., February 27, 2007

By	Rob C. "coachrob7" (Pennsylvania) - See all my reviews

This is not my first multi-tool but it is my first Leatherman and I am really impressed. It's just an excellent, high quality, well made tool. Every feature is top notch and I find the lock/blade feature for every tool extremely desirable. I would recommend this tool to anyone.
