    Just tried it on https://www.leatherman.co.uk/

    It actually works. Now, do I really need a 3rd Leatherman?

    Off topic, but multitool connected –

    I’d like a tool that has:

    good-ish pliers
    small non-locking blade
    bit driver
    scissors would be nice

    If I carried that and a few bits (screwdrivers, a couple of hex) I’d rarely need anything else – I really don’t need to be carrying a bottle opener, corkscrew, or awl around with me all day.

    Has anyone ever seen a tool like this?

    Closest I can think of is the Leatherman Juice S2 with a bit driver adaptor but they’ve discontinued it.

    Think you need two tools: a squirt ps4 and a micro bit driver like this one from bahco.

    The uk leatherman site has a very limited range available.

    Two tools! My pockets are already full!

    At the moment I use a Skeletool, which is pretty much what I want except for the locking blade – which makes it a bit dodgy to keep in my bag.

    The Squirt does look like it would do almost everything though (including opening a bottle! Why are multi-tool makes so obsessed with this function? Is there a shortage of bottle openers in the world?).
    Is it another discontinued model? I can see a few for sale, but it doesn’t seem to be available on the Leatherman site.

    sorry SillySilly, I missed your post.

    Yep, I think that’s what I need. There still seem to be a few Juice’s around so I’ll see if I can get one. Cheers.

    I have a skeletool which I really like, but similarly am a bit reluctant to carry it around when e.g. camping now that I know that there are potential legal issues with thr locking blade.

    Squirt PS4 looks pretty useful though… might have to put that on my Christmas list!

    I use it all the time, beats flicking them off with a lighter

    Of course it’s useful for some people – it’s just the ubiquity. Some multi-tools have locking blades, some not. Some have screwdrivers, pliers, bit drivers, scissors, files, saws, wirestrippers, can openers, etc. They ALL include a bottle opener, and the manufacturers seem to be inordinately proud of this – often featuring it in the advertising.

    It’s as if the main problem that mankind faces is how to open a bottle, and the other functions are just an add-on.

    I get what you’re saying, but generally they aren’t a main feature sacrificing anything else – Skeletool and Style, it doubles as a carabiner. On my Free P4, what else could be put on the driver shaft? Sometimes it’s actually the can opener that doubles as a bottle opener – and it’s usually rubbish as a bottle opener. In fact can opener – that’s one thing I’ve never needed

    It’s supposedly trivially simple a process to make a Swisstool legal-carry
