Gerber 30-000315 Crucial F.A.S.T. Tool for sale
I own the Skeletool CX as well as the Crucial FAST. The CX was my EDC within my blue jeans watch pocket for roughly 1 . 5 years for broadband and satellite installations. The pliers were by far the most disappointing feature, plus it was mainly because of the inferior grip the handles provided. I damaged the wire cutters by attempting to cut wire that had been too rigid. Since screwdriver bits are modular, and something is kept in the handle, rrt had been only a matter of time until at least one fell out. A fast call to Leatherman plus they sent a number of spares absolutely free. Overall I was happy with the CX because it would save me from being forced to concern yourself with carrying multiple tools. However I wanted something a bit more compact, should pliers, and longer screwdriver extensions will be a big plus. I aquired the (green) Crucial about few months ago, and my occupation it really is additional intuitive and ergonomic. After i learned about the FAST I sold the key to your co-worker for $20 who's utilizing it as his EDC. I wound up buying the FAST off eBay since Amazon didn't are on hand back then.

I have already been while using FAST as my EDC for 3-4 months now. This can be a little shorter versus the CX it's the same better to fit in my fob. One reviewer claims that this spring-assisted blade is slow to open. My blade opens in <1 sec after you flick the thumb stud, even though there is certainly some play from the blade it has never once been problems area. The wire cutters cut thru cat5e, rg6, and 10 ga cu ground wire just like a champ. The phillips & flat blade bits have not much play and also have held up to my usage habits. Overall I am happy while using the FAST and have no reservations in recommending it to others. I'll dish out 4 stars because knife blade may very well be made of better steel so it holds a much better edge.
