This too shall pass.
This is the second time I've had one jaw of the pliers in a Leatherman just break off. The first time, I was trying to lock a hub on my 4-W-D truck (the hub needed to be, and has since been, replaced). I figured it was too much torque for the pliers and wrote it off. This time, however, I was just closing the Leatherman after using the knife! It wouldn't close right, so I opened it back up and looked, and the broken-off jaw fell out into my hand!
I know that I can send it back and get it replaced, and I may do that, though I have another identical one already. But my question is, which brand of multi-tool out there uses good steel for all the parts? Leatherman seems to be using pot metal for the pliers!
