When you think about multi-tools, Leatherman comes in mind. They have innovated the multi-tool with their standard pliers design. The Leatherman Crunch introduces a different take on the standard needle nose pliers design. With the Crunch, Leather offers locking pliers as the main tool. Locking pliers are also called vice-grips. Anyone that works around tools know that vice-grips are valuable. Having a pair of vice-grips is like having a third hand. Vice-grips allow you to free your grip for other tasks.The Leatherman Crunch is small. Smaller than the Wave. The design is very cool. The Crunch pops out and it takes a few seconds to set up the main tool. The result is a small to mid-size vice grip that is very compact and portable when closed. In hand, it feels very well built and like all Leathermans, it has a 25 years warranty. The company stands by it's products and you can see it in the build quality of the Crunch.The Crunch is equipped with 13 tools but I will only mention a few. The main tools you will be using are the vice-grips, the serrated blade, the flat-head screwdriver, and the file. The rest of the tools are slightly redundant. The Crunch does not have nearly the amount of tools as a Charge but I would consider the Crunch as a complimentary multi-tool. It is best coupled with another small multi-tool. Some people do not need certain tools so it's best to get the tools you only need. For instance, some people do not drink wine often and they do not see the need for a corkscrew.While the Crunch lacks tools, the main tool makes up for it. Through the function of it's design, I can see how difficult it must be to incorporate many additional tools into the Crunch. For this reason, I am satisfied with the Crunch. I have other multi-tools and the Crunch is very good in comparison. What I did not like was the redundancy. For instance, I have 3 different sizes of flat-head screwdrivers. I do not need all of that. What nice though, the Crunch can be expanded. You can unscrew the adjustment knob all the way to reveal a hex driver slot. This makes for a very handy bit driver. Nice addition to have.The Crunch is a great complimentary multi-tool. Having something is better than nothing and the Crunch can meet many needs from day to day. The crunch is perfect when coupled with the Victorinox Soldier. While not as complete as a Wave or a Charge, the Crunch can still hold it's own in the sea of multi-tools. You can find the Crunch on sale for about $50.Carrying the Leatherman Crunch multi-tool along with the Spyderco Caly 3 pocket knife will make for a great edc.
