I bought this for turkey hunting. The pruning shears are sharp just what is needed for clearing low hanging branches and ground clutter. The choke tube wrench works well very handy to have on a turkey hunt. Why 3 stars? Two reason the main one is that the tools in the handle do not lock into place. This to me is a serious short comming for a tool of any kind. Leatherman boasts that the pawl is the largest they have ever offered not very usefull if it doesn't lock. The knife blade is serreated but does not lock. I don't know what they were thinking. You will have to be very carefull when using the knife or pawl, thus reducing it usefullness to a large degree. The second reason is the somewhat sharp edge of the handle when using the prunning shears. This is not designed to be used all day in a nursery for sure. The rubber gripping ridges on the handle dig in after a short time. But for getting low hanging branches out of theway it will do just fine.

I deer hunt almost every weekend in the fall and participate in archery, rifle and muzzleloading. I typically hunt from the ground, so cutting shooting lanes is particularly important. In the past I have used a Leatherman Super Tool, using the wire cutters on small branches, which worked OK but was slow going. My wife got me the Vista, and it's great so far.

The Vista's pruners are sharp and cut through branches a little over 1/2" easily. The saw works well for larger branches, but don't be surprised if you get a hand cramp on trees/branches over 2" in diameter since the saw is only about 3" long. I haven't used the other tools nearly as much but they seem to be robust as well.

The sheath work well too with a nice wide belt loop that fits on my hunting belt.

Another great tool from Leatherman.

My husband has a Leatherman Multi tool and I just got him the Leatherman Pruner. He has used it and I have used it myself. It's very easy to use and very sharp. I highly recommend as this is a superb product for men and women. It has everything you need in one tool
