About this deal

Laying this all out, the accessory kit has all the replaceable parts, cutter, wire-cutters, punch and scraper, plus replacement screws for fixing all of these parts. The first test I always do with any bladed instrument is to see if the factory edge will slice paper on the bias and shave hair. The blade on the MUT practically flew through paper and shaved hair handily, and upon closer inspection showed a very even edge with no sign of burring or dull spots. Additionally, since this is a military-themed tool, I sliced open an MRE bag with the blade, which obviously worked very well. Nice, mkay. Many U.S. service members carry a multitool with them in the field, and oftentimes it’s a Leatherman. However, when Leatherman introduced the MUT, their intentions were clear: this was going to be the military multitool, and it was even in the name. The Leatherman Military Utility Tool, or MUT, is a multitool with a toolset that’s specifically designed for military use, specifically pertaining to weapons maintenance. Featuring things like a bronze carbon scraper, a bolt override tool, a bore brush attachment, and many others, it is all designed to take the place of most, if not all, of your cleaning kit. The MUT breezed through the 1.6mm, but the 2.5mm required a but more grunt, after a while I started to need to nip through one wire at a time purely due to fatigue.

The Leatherman MUT is not only a practical tool but can also maintain military gear by utilizing a bronze carbon scraper, disassembly punch and bolt override tool. Features multiple areas for attaching threaded cleaning rods and brushes as well as on-board standard screwdriver and Torx bits for anything from adjustment work to gear breakdown. Other tools include pliers, a 420HC combo knife, saw, hammer and more. Comes standard with a MOLLE sheath and scope adjustment wrench. A great deal of thought has been put into the MUT and another aspect that shows this is the use of bronze for the carbon scraper. You can use this on steel parts without worrying about damaging the steel. As the bronze is intentionally soft, it will wear and is intended to be easily replaced by the user with the MUT accessory kit of replaceable parts.To access the bit holder the handle needs to be opened out as it can’t be used with the handles folded. Depending on your product's country of origin, you may also be liable for local duties which are charged by the EU and are normally between 10% & 16% of the products value. The Leatherman MUT (Military Utility Tool) is Leatherman’s first multi-tool that can be used as a tactical and practical tool. Perfect for military or law enforcement use, this military multi-tool has 16 tools – all of which are strong and practical, just what you expect from Leatherman. Also built into the design of the tool is the flexibility to replace the most commonly used parts on the spot, using a simple Torx #8, keeping down-time to a minimum.”

The Leatherman Charge collection is very similar to the Leatherman Wave. It is enhanced with many of the same tools. The difference is that the Charge is a little more luxurious. Especially the Leatherman Charge TTi+ is a very premium multi-tool.

We will cover more details as we go, but this is the side of the tool with the knife blade and carbon scraper.

Compared to the earlier photo of the MUT when it was on its own in the holster, the flap now sits higher up on the pouch front, but remains perfectly secure. The views expressed in this summary table are from the point of view of the reviewer’s personal use. I am not a member of the armed forces and cannot comment on its use beyond a cutting tool or field/hunting knife. A: That depends. You have to ask yourself if it “fits your mission,” so to speak. If you think you’re going to use the weapon-specific features often, then absolutely. If you’re in the military and you maintain a crew-served weapon a lot, absolutely. If you just want the coolest, most tactical multitool ever, absolutely. Q: What is 154CM Steel? Select the item(s) you want to return and choose between exchanges or a return.

The screwdriver? I don’t know what you want me to say, it screwed screws, but the carbide bits present a bit of a problem, since they’re harder than most screws and will likely strip them if you apply too much pressure. The disassembly punch on the MUT is a bit on the small side for pushing out the retainer pins on my AR, but I understand that it has to be smaller for other weapon platforms, as well as for the trigger housing group pins, and in the end, it worked. The bronze scraper performed exactly as advertised, and its irregular shape actually helped me get into some of the more troublesome areas, like inside the bolt carrier and in between the teeth of the bolt of my AR. The Leatherman MUT (Matt Sampson)The MUT features multiple areas on the tool threaded for cleaning rods and brushes and all the screwdriver bits are sized for standard military and civilian sighting adjustment work.” With all this, a MOLLE sheath and scope adjustment wrench included, the Leatherman MUT may very well be the most efficient and useful piece in your kit.” It turned out to be a very easy conversion, especially as the accessory kit has a spare bronze scraper which very nicely substitutes the knife blade. And there we have it, the MUT’s features covered, so next we are going to have a look at a couple of accessories. What was very impressive is the state of the 154CM cutters after a lot of work, they looked like this, pretty much untouched.
