Leatherman has officially discontinued the Free P2 and P4. These two tools showcased the companies new FREE technology with magnetic architecture. These models have taken a backseat due to the Arc model's release. Not sure where the company is going with these two models being discontinued, but one can hope there's a new budget FREE model in the works. Maybe a budget friendly Arc?
There's always a certain amount of excitement that comes when folks get wind that there may be a new Leatherman tool in development. What makes it difficult is when there's no official word from Leatherman themselves. There have been some leaks from websites that give us a possible glimpse into what they are cooking up.
What kind of people would write collect and review multitools? Quite simple really- we are designers and do-ers, outdoors types and indoor types, mechanics, doctors, problem solvers and problem makers. As such, we have, as a world spanning community, put every type, size and version of multitool, multifunction knife, pocket knife and all related products to every test we could manage in as many places and environments as there are.
