HMIC

I bought the Crunch as an addendum carry.I was lucky enough to get one out of this last batch. I carry a SuperTool 300 every day, but wanted the option of a more conventionally shaped plier head for times when that is needed, along with the vise grip function. The crunch offers both of those attributes. I am a professional Auto Tech and shop owner. I have a giant tool box full of Snap On tools. But when I'm in the parking lot checking something, or under a dash and need an unexpected tool, the Leathermans always come through for me. Plus, I fix everything around the house, so the tools are always handy for a quick fix, or when at a friend or relative's house and I need a tool. Leatherman is Top Quality stuff. I've found nothing better because there is nothing better. My only question is WHY would you not continue making the Crunch? The only thing I might recommend is making it full size the the ST 300. But it's great for what it is.

A newspaper clipping about Tim Leatherman's Mr. Crunch, and Tim Leatherman's original drawings and prototype for Mr. Crunch multi-tool.

MEET MR. CRUNCH

In 1975, Tim Leatherman was looking for a tool that didn't exist. So, he decided to build one. Tim headed to the garage with a few sketches and an idea to create what was in his mind. Fast forward eight years and the Leatherman PST® multi-tool was born.

But during those years, Tim built, tested, broke, and engineered a host of prototypes and parts that ultimately didn't make it to production. Even the name of his patented prototype—Mr. Crunch—was changed in favor of the now-famous "Leatherman." One of the main tools was a double-pliers feature—too costly and complex for manufacturing back then.

For this inaugural Leatherman Garage release, we're combining our iconic forgotten feature with our most advanced multi-tool to date, the FREE® P4. The P4 is designed with the FREE magnetic technology that allows quick, fluid access to all 21 tools. And the double-pliers snap into place when deployed and stow away when they're not needed. We hope this product inspires new ways to fix, tinker, and solve your way out of problems, just as Tim did in his garage over 40 years ago.
