Leatherman Rebar Multitool — Coyote

The Rebar is Leatherman's compact multitool that revisits the rectangular form of the original PST, with a closed length of 10.16 cm and a weight of 189 g: pocket dimensions, working-tool capability. It is aimed at those who need a reliable tool in hunting, outdoor, and everyday professional use.

What sets the Rebar apart from other multitools in the same class is the inclusion of replaceable wire-cutter blades — for both standard and hard wire — allowing the cutting edge to stay effective over time without replacing the whole tool. The plain blade and serrated blade are made from 420HC stainless steel, which balances edge retention with ease of field sharpening: not the hardest steel available, but a practical choice for those who use the knife frequently and need to restore it quickly without specialist equipment.

The full feature set — needle-nose pliers, regular pliers, electrical crimper, wire stripper, saw, awl, file, three screwdrivers, a 20 cm ruler integrated into the handle, bottle opener, and can opener — covers the vast majority of situations in a single tool. The trade-off is typical of compact multitools: the side-locking tools require the body to be opened to access them, unlike one-hand opening models. Anyone who prioritises quick access to a single blade should weigh this limitation against the greater compactness and structural rigidity of this format.
