Tools and Hardware Reviews of Leatherman 80040003K Squirt P4 Glacier Blue Multitool with Small Pliers
Customer Review: best pocket multi-tool
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought one for my dad for fathers day with scissors and was incredibly jealous of the build quality compared to my Gerber clutch so i dumped the Gerber on to my little brother and bought one of these its so much better the pliers don't feel like they're going to brake the knife is decently sharp and the opening action is much smoother. I've owned it for over a year and it still looks good i admire it every time i take it outCustomer Review: Very Handy Little Tool
Summary: 5 Stars
Handy, well made tool. I expecially like the spring load pliers. The wire cuter works well. The only fault I have is the knife blade. Like so many of the utility pocket knives today, it's only sharpened at about a 10 degree angle on one side. The other side is flat. The good news is, that with a diamond stone, you can bevel the flat edge to give you a nice sharp edge. As the old saying goes; you're more apt to accidently cut yourself with a dull blade, than a sharp one.Customer Review: get the Leatherman Juice CS4 instead (but the file is awesome on this)
Summary: 3 Stars
All the tools on the Squirt S4 (scissor version) and Squirt P4 (plier version) are the same except the S4 has a nice twizzer and an awful fingernail file (with ruler) whereas the P4 has a really really nice and useful 2-sided file and a very small awl. I wish Leatherman would replace the finfernail file on the S4 with the P4's 2-sided file. I also don't see much need for the tiny awl on the P4. Maybe the S4's twizzer would be better. Rather than buy the Squirt P4, buy Leatherman's Juice CS4 or similar. That should take care of most of your pocket and purse and glove compartment tool needs.
The new Squirt S4 is a nicer design (of tool locations) but the Micra supposedly has a superior scissors and I tend to agree with that. The Micra is a little longer than the Squirt and the twizzer on it is a much worse design. The knife blades are the same. The finger nail file is the same on both except the Squirt has a ruler (on the opposite side of the file). The phillips screwdriver is the same on both and I do not like the design. Instead of the crossed points it has a flat tip phillips. The bottle opener on the Micra also has a small flat-tip screwdriver. I don't like this design either. I prefer the Squirt's design of bottle opener and medium flat-tip screwdriver. On the Micra the medium flat-tip screwdriver is a stand-alone tool and on the Squirt S4 the small screwdriver is stand-alone (which I prefer). The stainless-steel body of the Micra is far more appealing and durable than the aluminum handles of the Squirt S4 which are easily dinged. In the end, I prefer the look of the stainless steel Micra but the overall design and tool components of the Squirt S4.
Customer Review: This little leatherman is GREAT!
Summary: 5 Stars
This tool has helped immensely in everyday life. From fishing screws, usb flash drive caps, even hair clips out of hard to reach places, minor household repairs or working with computer hardware, these pliers do a great job. I also work as an electrician, so these pliers have come in handy in many situations. Just the small size (can fit in the little coin pocket of your jeans) makes this tough leatherman a great buy for your money. Even though it is small, the quality of the tool is superb. I use it everyday and it has always worked fine. Just a fine piece of craftsmanship and ingenuity. Customer Review: leatherman squirt
Summary: 4 Stars
Excellent. The best pocket knife I've ever owned, with the emphasis on pocket. It's rounded corners and small size make it comfortable to carry. And at the same time, it is a real tool. The screw drivers and pliers can really get things done. The blade is acceptable, and the file has been useful as well.
