Review: A great second tool - The Leatherman Crunch is quite a compact instrument. I've previously carried a Kershaw A100 (almost a foot long in the "carry" position) and I now carry a Surge, one of the largest Leatherman tools out there. with both opened, the Surge is 1.5" longer than the Crunch. The Crunch is about the size of the "standard" Leatherman, the PST. I don't know what marketing decisions have taken place to keep the Crunch so well hidden - I've yet to find a brick-and-mortar store that stocks it, and until mine arrived in the mail, I'd never even seen one! This is amazing to me, because I can easily see the next generation of multitools being based on locking jaw pliers. First, the pros: 1. Locking Jaw. (duh) Locking Jaw pliers are the original multi-tools - they can be used for just about anything by themselves. This feature alone more than makes up for the few shortcomings. 2. Compact, lightweight. The smaller it is, the more likely you'll have it with you. 3. Strong. The first thing I did was tighten the adjustment screw as far as it would go, then try to lock the jaws. I had to loosen the screw a couple turns before I could get it to lock, but it was tensioned VERY hard and gave no indication that anything was going to seize up or let go. I wouldn't trust it with as much force as an actual pair of Vice Grips, but what I saw and felt was impressive. 4. Includes the most-used accessory tools - knife, screwdriver/pry bars, bottle opener, wire cutters, wire stripper. 5. Hex-bit driver - while I like having a couple screwdrivers on-board, I use a screwdriver quite regularly, and replacing a multitool just because of a worn out screwdriver gets expensive fast. The hex-bit driver accepts standard, 1/4" hex bits, or the flattened, Leatherman-style bits. The cons: 1. "old-style" accessory tool deployment. The Wave and Surge (and the Kershaw A100) have the knife and other long tools accessible directly from the "Carry" position. You have to open up the Crunch to get to any of the accessory tools. Aside from needing to open the tool to get to the knife, this method also puts the knife edge above the bottom handle, instead of on the edge of the handle, making some cutting jobs difficult. It's a problem for all traditional-style multitools, not just the crunch. 2. Serrated Knife - I prefer a standard knife, or multiple knives. 3. Unusual opening and closing - it feels like you have to assemble the pliers each time you try to use them. When you're used to pulling the Surge out of its holster and flicking it open with a twist of the wrist, the Crunch's deployment feels very awkward. Still, in the few hours I've owned it, I've discovered how to open and close it with one hand and without looking at it. 4. Adjuster screw needs to be removed to access the hex-bit driver. All in all, it's an exceptionally useful tool with a few minor quirks. I plan on carrying it on my belt, between my Surge and the bit kit.
Review: Best EDC known to man! - This is hands down my favorite folding EDC tool I’ve ever had. Having a set of locking pliers in my pocket at all times is an awesome feeling. A fun tool to play around with as well. Once you are able to open it up with one hand, you have leveled up to pro status. It comes with a beautiful sheath but I don’t always like to carry it at my hip. I made a cool mod to it by attaching a leatherman aftermarket pocket clip for $7 and taking out the two pin screws with two sets of locking pliers. I had to use a washer and it was a little tricky but it can be done! With the addition of the pocket clip it makes my tool super versatile and easy to carry with me at any time. If leatherman were to make any adjustments to this basically perfect tool, it would be the addition of a stock pocket clip and the addition of scissors, similar to the Ps style tools. This could be achieved by taking out one of the 3 flat heads and the lanyard hook. Also, having a box opener would make it legendary. Overall though, these mods can be performed by the owner if they really wanted to, but for the premium price and time this device has been on the market, it would be nice for leatherman to make these stock changes themselves. Nonetheless, this tool is a winner and would make a truly unique and amazing gift for anyone. It is so robust and literally has no weak points that would make it break or fail. Should last forever, great investment. Buy it!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the difference between the crunch 68010101k, 68010103k and 68010201k? is it the included sheath that's different? or something else?**
A: The 68010101K is the Leatherman Crunch Multi-Tool with Leather Sheath and the 68010201K is the Leatherman Crunch Multi-Tool with Nylon Sheath.  The SKU number 68010103k is not one that we carry and not listed on Leathermans official website.

**Q: Can I use the "flat" bits that come with other leatherman tools?**
A: As previous reply indicates, it doesn't appear so. However the slot for the thumb screw on the end has a socket that accepts any standard hex shaped bit. You just need to fully unscrew the thumb screw to make it accessible.

**Q: Does this leatherman have the bit extension inside the tool where the ajusting screw is**
A: No That screw is just to adjust the vice grip plier. The bit extension goes on the individual bits, and does not come with or inside the leatherman crunch.

**Q: It says in the description that it has a hex bit driver and bottle opener. Does it?**
A: Yes, just not shown in pic

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very nice!
*by A***E on December 6, 2011*

I do wish the blade were a bit bigger but the pliers and size of the tool are great. I bought the Surge along with the Crunch the Skeletool, the Sidekick and the Charge. I also bought 2 LED flashlights and the bit set. I talk about the flashlights and the bit set below. I've never owned a multitool but have alway carried a pocket knife. I wanted to try a few and justified the expense in all sorts of interesting ways. Maybe this review will help you avoid some expense and the whole justification exercise. :) Of all of the tools I bought I like the Surge and the Charge the best although there are a few things I didn't like about the Surge. First, all of the outside surfaces have a sharp edge that is not comfortable. I filed and sanded them, now they're better but still not as good as the Charge. The Skeletool has this problem as well but a bit worse. The metal in the handle of the Skeletool looks too thin to file the edge so I didn't try. I gave the Surge 4 stars and the Charge 5 stars, because of the way they feel in my hand out of the box. You really shouldn't have to finnish a tool with a file for it to feel right in your hand, in my opinion. The second thing that could use some improvement is the sheath. It's functional, I guess, but it is more bulky than it needs to be. The Surge and the Charge have the same style sheath and have the same flaws. The Charge sheath is a little smaller because the tool is 1/2 shorter but it sticks out just as far from your belt. The extra bit set make the sheaths stick out even further as the elastic in the sheaths expand to accomodate the 2 bit holders. I looked around for some alternatives to the shealth for the Surge. I ended up buying a horizontal leather cell phone case. It's from Case Logic and called the Universal Pouch CLP188SMT. I think other styles for iPhone 4 or large PDAs will work as well. A small flashlight and bit extension fit nicely in the bottom with the extra bits that I removed from the two black plastic holders they came with and put them in 2 small ziplock bags for pills I think. I bought the bags at Walgreen's in the pill organizer section. They are clear and about 2.5 inches wide and cost around $3 for a bunch of them. The surge fits snugly on top of all of this in the pouch and the magnetic clasp hold it all securely. Here's what I think of the other multitools: Charge ALX: Smaller and lighter but more expensive. It does come in a nice tin though with a small bit set and some other accessories. Handles feel better. It is also 1/2 inch shorter. I bought the ALX so it has the saw in place of the scissors. If I had to buy just one multitool, knowing what I know now, this would be it. I will likely give it to someone as a gift. Crunch: Nice vice grips, good size, tools somewhat limited but we'll see how often I use the stuff on the Surge. I may switch to carrying this in the future. Sidekick: Best value of all of them. Has a lot of functionality and I like the spring loaded pliers. It looks a little less well made but good enough for me. Skeletool: My least favorite. It has sharp edges where you don't want them and the clip takes up a lot of room for it to be on something where every bit of real eastate should have something useful. I know the Freestyle eliminates this clip but i really dont like the way this tool is put together or how it feels in my hand. The Freestyle looks like it would feel the same. Also for such a large tool, it seems to have limited functionality. I know weight can be important to some people. And this tool is light for its size. It just isn't worth the tradeoff for me. Flashlights I bought 2 small LED flashlights, each powered by a single AAA battery. The Leatherman Serac S2 and the Fenix E01 The Fenix E01 is better, smaller, brighter and cost 1/3 the price of the Leatherman. Bit Set I like it. It looks like it has a good variety of bits. Although, I needed to find an alternative to the plastic holders the bits come in. Carrying both sets in this configuration makes the Surge stick out further in the orginal leather and nylon sheath. Also, I couldn't find a way to carry both sets of bits. Tucking one set behind the multitool in the sheath allows them to fall out whenever I take out the multitool and requires 2 hands to put the multitool back into the case because the bit set is loose in the shealth. I think maybe a clip on the front side of the bit holders may work well to hold them at the tops of your pockets. The bit holders are thin enough that they shouldn't interfere with reaching your hand into your pockets in this configuration and would minimize looking like a dork. A constant struggle for me. If the bit holder were flexible it would be even better like a silicone rubber holder. Then they could probably go into the back pocket as well.
