The moral of this story is not to rely on the Torx key provided with the accessory kit, and don’t go blindly for T8, but try out the T8, T9, and T10 bits you have to find the best fit. These are both longer than the standard screw bit and are handy for removing parts that are recessed. Additionally, since this is a military-themed tool, I sliced open an MRE bag with the blade, which obviously worked very well.

The screwdriver bit is nestled inside the strap cutter and features a passive locking system that keeps it fairly secure unless you pull on it. I bumped that up to cutting the steel head off of a wooden coat hanger, which snapped just as easily as the wire coat hanger. Your package will normally be dispatched via the Royal Mail or DPD on the same or next business day after cleared payment. And there we have it, the MUT’s features covered, so next we are going to have a look at a couple of accessories. A karabiner style clip is integrated into the MUT allowing very easy attachment to cord loops or trouser belt loops (if they are strong enough).The other edge has a slot to hold the small double-ended bit (here the bit is fitted into the bit holder).

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). This warranty does not cover abuse, alteration, theft, loss, or unauthorised and/or unreasonable use of your Leatherman product. A removable clip which allows the user to wear their multi-tool attached to a pocket or belt loop without the use of a sheath.I also added a very small screw to the threaded section of the pliers, son I can attach de sharpened punch.

This warranty does not cover sheaths, accessories, imprinting, color finishes, cleaning, or sharpening. 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 MUT is truly a specialist multi-tool designed for military, LE or civilian shooters and also provides you with 16 practical tools from the Leatherman range. We will cover more details as we go, but this is the side of the tool with the knife blade and carbon scraper. This makes the need to adjust your front sight for elevation a niche concern, especially considering that you can do the job with the tip of a 5.

We take extraordinary measures so your Leatherman product will give you many years of dependable service. What was very impressive is the state of the 154CM cutters after a lot of work, they looked like this, pretty much untouched. We don’t share your credit card details with third-party sellers, and we don’t sell your information to others. On the scraper tool and disassembly punch side, there’s a hole for the user to connect cleaning rods to, turning the entire multitool into a handle for pulling stubborn bore brushes out, or whatever else. If you open the saw and the knife blade you will see a Torx screw towards the pointy end of the saw and knife blade.

This tool is a massive, aggressive, and overtly tactical package, complete with a tan MOLLE pouch to hold it (and its accompanying ⅜-inch wrench and front sight adjustment tool) and leaving no question in the mind of the user that this is absolutely the Military Utility Tool. My EOD has seen use on the ski patrol, rope access jobs, tinkering at home, on climbs, working on mountain bikes, and being dropped, smashed, run over and even used as an anchor for a rappel (not a manufacturer’s recommendation).Pressing on the release plate pushes the bit hook away from the bit so that it can be pulled out of the holder. If it were the other way round this would not be the case, as your palm could not get deep enough into the cutter notch. You might have spotted the cams which are included on the pliers’ handle pivots in some of the other photos. We’ve seen it in the hand, but here is a little size comparison between an original PST, the MUT and the OHT. Last year, however, a friend of mine purchased the biggest, burliest, most bad-ass multi-tool I have ever seen and after seeing it in action for a few weeks, I decided to get one for myself.
