Super Tool Wire Cutters
Product Details
Super Tool 300...The Original Heavy-Duty Multi-Tool is Back! This fall, Leatherman will be bringing back Super Tool? with plenty of new and upgraded features. The new Super Tool 300 (ST300) will
continue the long tradition of preparing the working man and DIYers alike, for the expected and unexpected.
The new ST300 has more than 10 years of compiled customer feedback and engineering expertise in every feature. Each one is designed to address the user who demands strength and quick access to tools for the toughest jobs.
Bigger, Beefier Pliers
Arguably the most important feature of the ST300; the pliers have been optimized for strength. To maintain the balance of materials when making room for the new removable wire cutters, more steel was added to key areas, making them the strongest, beefiest pilers we've ever produced. In addition, the neck of the pliers is sloped for reaching even further into tight spaces.
Removeable Wire Cutters
Cutting wire - regular, stranded, or hard - is a common application on the job. When frequent, heavy pressure is applied, cutters can become dented and dull, causing the pliers to stick and jam up. By making the regular/hard-wire cutters removable they can be sharpened or replaced on the spot (replacement cutters sold separately). In addition, by optimizing the heat treatment process and replacing the standard stainless steel with premium 154CM the wire cutters will hold an edge three times as long for maximum durability.
Grab 'Em With Gloves On
The idea of "clumping" was originally introduced with the first Super Tool. By pulling on only one tool, you would get them all from the handle at once, including the knives. To improve on safety, the new ST300 has just that, "Edge-safety Clumping". If you pull on either of the two knifes they are the only implement that will come out. Conversely if you pull on any of the other features the sharp-edged ones stay put.
A Better Fit
The ST300 straight blade is hollow ground for easy sharpening. Screwdrivers are in the sizes professionals use most and are also hollow ground for a better fit. The handles are rounded for comfort and have cut outs on the side to easily access blades when wearing bulky work gloves. The locks on the ST300 have been strengthened to ensure full engagement when the features are under heavy use.
ST300 will ship in September 2009 for distribution worldwide and will come with Leatherman's industry-leading, 25-year warranty. MSRP for the ST300 will be $84.00 (USD). A black oxide version with cap crimper will also be available at an MSRP of $97.00 (USD).
History of the Super Tool
The original Super Tool was introduced in 1994. The first multi-tool of its size and strength, it was an instant success selling more than one million units in the first two years alone. In 2001 modifications were made and the Super Tool 200 hit the market. The new ST200 featured moon-shaped locks on the handle sides, instead of the original all-in-one locking system. Customers still raved about the tool's strength and many applications, but the locks and "clumping" were not as user-friendly as they would have liked. Enter the Core?.
In 2005 Leatherman revised the ST200 putting new locks on the back sides of the handles and doing away with "clumping". The jaws were also re-designed for strength and the new tool was called the Core. Underestimating the popularity of this new tool and how quickly it would be adopted for every day use on job sites the world over, the lock design and tool accessibility was not what it could be. Fast forward to 2009 and the Super Tool 300. This new design, specifically for heavy-duty, on-the-job use is sure to find its place in tool belts, gear boxes, saddle bags, MOLLE systems, and center consuls the world over.
