High-Performance Steel Multitools

The Leatherman ARC Features MagnaCut Steel and 20 Tools

— October 10, 2023 — Lifestyle
The Leatherman ARC multitool has been developed over the course of two years as an accessory that's perfect for avid adventurers to incorporate into their collection. The tool features the MagnaCut steel in the 2.76-inch straight-edge blade, which has been paired with a diamond-like carbon (DLC) coating to further enhance corrosion resistance. This ensures optimal sharpness retention, easy sharpening, enhanced durability and more.

The Leatherman ARC multitool also features the brand's proprietary FREE technology that enables each of the features to be deployed in a one-handed manner. The tool features a total of 20 tools for adventurers and DIYers to access at their leisure to easily handle any task, while an overall weight of just 8.6-ounce makes it realistic for pocket carrying.
