The Leatherman T-Series has been engineered to make every tool even easier to use.<br \/>\n\u201cCutting-edge magnetic architecture makes this series the easiest multi-purpose tools to open and close with no need for a nail nick. The smooth mechanism and distinctive solid click gives the user confidence that the tool is locked in place and ready for use.\u201d<br \/>\nThe Leatherman T-Series is available in two styles: T2 and T4, both offering users a choice of 20 tools between the two styles, to suit their needs.<\/p>\n<p>All of the tools made on the FREE platform include:<\/p>\n<p>Access to all implements from the outside of the tool plus the elimination of a nail nick, which required a fingernail to deploy the tool.<\/p>\n<p>A proprietary magnetic architecture which ensures smooth, frictionless deployment of the implements.<\/p>\n<p>A new locking system which drastically reduces friction when opening and closing tools. The addition of new elastomer springs makes this collection the most durable Leatherman has ever produced.<\/p>\n<p>Epic haptics that allow each tool to open and close seamlessly with a distinct click providing confirmation that the tool is open and ready for use.<\/p>\n<p>Textured signature design to provide a distinct look and offer enhanced grip.<\/p>\n<p>The T-Series features eight to 12 tools that pack into a convenient size, making it perfect for everyday use. At just 3.3 ounces, the T2 is the most compact offering from the FREE collection, fitting easily in the user\u2019s pocket or purse.<br \/>\nWith all the assets of the T2, plus a scissors, tweezers, and a heavy duty fie, the T4 was designed with everyday problem solving in mind, making it one of Leatherman\u2019s most universal tool to date.<br \/>\nGarry added: \u201cFans of Leatherman will be really impressed by this use of cutting-edge engineering technology which creates tools that are packed with new features, putting a toolbox full of functionality in the palm of their hand.<br \/>\n\u201cRegardless of who our audience is or what they do, we\u2019re committed to providing high-quality, multi-purpose tools that our existing and new fans can always rely on.\u201d<br \/>\nThe Leatherman T-Series Collection is now available to buy at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.leatherman.co.uk\">www.leatherman.co.uk<\/a>.
