Leatherman FREE T4 12-in-1 Multi-Tool

Leatherman’s FREE T4 builds on the already impressive FREE T2 with more tools in a near-identical form factor. On top of its 420HC stainless steel blade, screwdrivers, and pry tool, it now features a pair of spring-action scissors, a heavy-duty file, and a set of tweezers that tuck into the grippy and durable frame. Like you’ve come to expect with Leatherman’s FREE series, each tool locks in place and can be operated with a single hand for easy multitasking. Available in six distinct colors, the FREE T4 comes backed by Leatherman’s 25-year guarantee.

A mechanical engineer by trade, Tim Leatherman was always good with tools. But it wasn’t until a budget trip to Europe in 1975—when he had to constantly fix his old Fiat—that he realized just how lacking some could be. Upon returning home to Oregon, Leatherman began designing a tool that could fit in a pocket and tackle any job that came his way. After years of refinement (and unsuccessful business pitches), he finalized the design for the Original Leatherman Pocket Survival Tool: a mini toolkit built into a 5-ounce, 4-inch frame. The success of the PST laid the groundwork for dozens of tools to come, and paved the way for the pocket multi-tool’s rise to popularity. Today, all Leathermans are produced in Portland, Oregon; tested in the mountains and rivers of the Pacific Northwest; and backed by a 25-year guarantee.
