About this deal

You can, for instance, not only replace the wire cutters, but also a pocket clip or the carbon scraper. With the handles closed, and the knife blade able to open, if you look inside the opening hole, there is a small metal pin sitting back inside the handle as shown by the arrow. The scraper’s nail-nick works perfectly for this, so long as you line it up properly (as shown here). Even the hammer, which is small, has been handy, from hammering in steel snow pickets through bulletproof grooming to bent bindings and boot buckles, the hammer is much more useful than I thought it would be. The disassembly punch on the MUT is a bit on the small side for pushing out the retainer pins on my AR, but I understand that it has to be smaller for other weapon platforms, as well as for the trigger housing group pins, and in the end, it worked.

On normal pants, the weight of the tool will actually drag the edge of your pocket down, which in addition to being uncomfortable is just unsightly. He says: “I have carried the Leatherman MUT since mid-2010 and my first foray into the month-long Mojave Viper training evolution. That’s why we offer our 25-year warranty, so you can be confident your Leatherman lasts for a lifetime of use. To access the bit holder the handle needs to be opened out as it can’t be used with the handles folded.On the outside of the tool, immediately next to the strap cutter, is the combination carabiner and bottle opener, which like the Leatherman Skeletool that I reviewed, is easily accessible with no extra steps, being the most important tool on any multitool.

Taking the MUT out into the field and amongst the jobs it was needed for was some tidying up of barbed wire. The bit-kit has two strips of bits that fit the MUT’s bit holder and the accessory kit has a bag of several parts for the MUT. However, I found this screw bit to be very sticky, and at one point it required me to pull the installed bit out with a pair of pliers, which is a very bad sign if the MUT is going to be your pair of pliers in the field. Perfect for military or law enforcement use, this military multi-tool has 16 tools – all of which are strong and practical, just what you expect from Leatherman.I did not try fitting where the scraper is (A locking mechanism is required to prevent it from folding closed). You could use a couple of washers or something else to fill the space the knife blade occupied, so you don’t need to have the accessory kit to do this conversion (but you do need to add a spacer of some sort). When it comes to cleaning rod/brush use, you have the choice of two main connection points, the threaded hole in the side of the MUT and the threaded post onto which the punch screws. These are both longer than the standard screw bit and are handy for removing parts that are recessed.
