Leatherman Knives is a US based company. It produces some of the finest multi-tools and sells them only to the US market. Nonetheless, it is one of the top pioneer brands in the knifing industry today.
Leatherman was started a few years in 1983. The owner of the company Tim Leatherman came up with the idea after using a Swiss Army Knives and realizing that the knives didn’t do for him everything that he wanted.
So he decided to start Leatherman – the bonus of being wealthy. Since then, Leatherman multi-tools brand has been evolving. Today they are a knifing powerhouse with a variety of products including Leatherman scissors, strap cutters, screwdrivers, and bottle openers.
The multi-tool can endure just about any kind of work and still remain in shape. In any case, they come with a 25 year warranty. Take a look at some of the bestselling Leatherman Multi-Tools that the market has today.
