— August 20, 2021 — Tech
Made from stainless steel, the Leatherman Curl EDC multi-tool is made to last. Elegantly designed, this lightweight tool fits seamlessly into a pocket. The Leatherman allows consumers to be ready with the right tool at any given time. The multi-tool removes some of the less required tools and adds more useful ones for everyday use.

The palm-sized tool unifies 15 objects into one slim package, weighing only 7.5 ounces. The Leatherman Curl EDC comes with a 25-year warranty to guarantee customer satisfaction. The gadgets chosen are carefully selected to cater to consumer lifestyles. It includes a 420HC knife, bottle opener, can opener, diamond-coated file, hard-wire cutters, medium screwdriver, needlenose pliers, normal pliers, large bit driver, a rule, spring-action scissors, and a wire stripper.
