— October 22, 2015 — Unique
The Leatherman Signal is a new multi-tool that contains everything the modern survivalist needs to survive in the wild.

Leatherman is known for its intensely useful multi-tools. They're a more rugged cousin to Swiss Army knives, featuring miniature versions of heavy duty tools in sturdy cases with no bells and whistles. This iteration of the popular multi-tool, called the Leatherman Signal, adds some survivalist favorites to the collapsible tool. New functions include a ferrocerium fire starter and an emergency whistle. The Leatherman Signal also offers some fan favorite tools from other Leatherman editions, such as a diamond-coated file to sharpen the Signal's blades. It also contains standard but necessary items like a can and bottle opener, saw and hammer.
