History

While on a budget trip to Europe in 1975, Tim Leatherman and his wife Chau constantly came across leaky hotel plumbing and road-side fixes for their cranky Fiat. Tim realized the need for pliers based, multi-purpose tool. “I was carrying a scout knife and used it for everything from slicing bread to fixing the car. But I kept wishing I had a pair of pliers!”. When Tim came back to the states, he took his “multi-tool” idea, some sketches he made on the trip, and got to work. When Tim started on the prototype for this new tool, he estimated it’d take him a month. Instead, it took the next three years to build the prototype he envisioned and filed for a patent. With the patent application and prototype in hand, he set off to sell his idea. Unfortunately, the companies he approached didn’t bite. For another 3 and a half years, Tim faced rejection.

Until he partnered with his college friend, Steve Berliner, and in the spring of 1983, they received their first order for 500 tools from Cabela’s and launched the first Leatherman tool, the PST. From Tim’s first prototype to Leatherman's latest multi-tool innovation, they have been building all tools in Portland, Oregon. And when it’s time to put their tools through their paces, they tested them in the great Pacific Northwest. From hiking in the rugged Cascade Mountains, fishing off of the beautiful Oregon coast, or exploring the high desert in the east, Leatherman ensured their tools are reliable for any adventure or task, big or small. Tim Leatherman invites you to try out his tools for yourselves, or read people’s stories of saving the day with quick-thinking, their own two hands, and a Leatherman multitool.
