New Leatherman ARC extends the cutting edge of multi-tools
Leatherman has announced the launch of a new premium multi-tool. Sitting at the top of brand’s range, the Leatherman ARC includes 20 tools and is the first multi-tool to use a MagnaCut steel blade, with its superior edge retention and durability.
Developed based on extensive consumer feedback, the new product incorporates Leatherman’s renowned FREE technology that enables its features to be used with one hand. The ARC will be available in the UK from 17 October.
The new Leatherman ARC is the first-ever multi-tool to use premium MagnaCut steel. The knife blade is made of CPM MagnaCut which maintains a sharp edge and excels in corrosion resistance, toughness, and ease of sharpening. The result is a knife blade that’s perfect for everyday tasks as well as the harshest of environments. The diamond-like carbon (DLC) coating on the blade adds another layer of corrosion resistance.
Following feedback from consumers during the five years of its development, the ARC includes a highly-requested bit driver and thanks to FREE® technology, each feature opens smoothly and is 100% one-hand operable. With 20 tools (see ‘Note to editors’ below), removable pocket clip, four-pocket nylon sheath, and eight double-ended bits, the Leatherman ARC aims to set a new standard for premium multi-tools. The Leatherman ARC retails at £260.95 and is available from www.whitbyandco.co.uk and selected specialist retailers.
