They need to construct the pliers portion out titanium instead of stainless, to reduce the weight to a packable amount. I would readily pay the difference of materials cost to cut the weight in half.
These are the main tools that one uses daily as opposed to too may needless tools. Amazing quality, lightweight, super sharp knife with a very modern blade. It always turns heads when I use it in any capacity--especially the bottle opener. It is a beautifully engineered piece and a perfect gift for the guy who has everything. It is truly the Rolex of Leatherman knives.
This is the one I will always carry and is hardly noticeable compared to the Original, Wave or Gerber tool. I have owned 3 different Leatherman products and this by far has the best build quality. Sharper than any knife I have purchased in the past. I bought one for my brother as a Christmas gift. After opening the box and playing around with it I realized it was built very well. The quality and sturdiness of this knife is second to none. Also the blade is very, very sharp. One thing to remember though is that this knife doesn't have nearly all the tools the Original, Wave, nor Gerber tools have, but I still prefer this over them.
I thought at first it was a bit cheesy paying top dollar for a small knife tool. I owned the original Leathman, the micro tool, and the wave. Besides how many tools do you really need in your pocket. I also own the Gerber multi-tool.
I purchased two. This multi-tool covers the basics and is very well made. The carbon fiber accents look cool and the design is well thought out. One for myself and the other as a gift. Unlike most multi-tools that have everything including the kitchen sink, this tool is not too heavy.
