On another video the blade broke unexpectedly when cutting coat hanger wire right where that gap is. The important thing to note there is - even if this is meant to be a stripper as some have said - it is easy to accidentally break the blade. I have cheap wire cutters that have a similar gap. They've lasted 40 years, even abused cutting HT fencing wire, and they're still intact.
If mine break, I’ll just swap them for the older style cutters. It’s a disposable part so I wouldn’t call it a ‘fatal’ flaw. I watched a video last night where the guy cut coat hangers again and again without issue. He also didn’t put them into the gap. It’s a pretty simple issue to resolve, and I’m sure leatherman will replace them.
It is a fatal when you consider a benchmark multi tool that’s supposed to be highly engineered and designed to be reliable and ready for any task fast and furiously
Where’d you get it from? I was thinking of buying mine from bass pro shops since I get just pick up and not wait, but the display has the gap. Not sure if it’s been updated and they just have the old stock still
Knipex do 2 versions of pliers. One with that gap, one without. It's useful when cutting that it cuts without the end flying away. I had to cut 400 decking screws and was glad I could cut then pull off the end rather than having 400 screw heads to find so they didn't end up in the kids feet.
The gap is a wire cutters meant for WIRES not hard wire like the hanger, you're suppose to use the tool on top of the gap to cut that kind of metal wire
@@inkiron3907 Man your Awsome! Thanks for pointing this out! I was mad about this, so I switched cutters and to my surprise the other was from the p2 or p4 lined up perfectly! But you were the first to point this out! But the other cutters work perfectly! I don't know why Leatherman did that with the Arc! Ridiculous! Again thanks! That was a huge help..
I don’t know. The Charge+ Ti has the same little gap, and it seems to me it’s meant to be a wire stripper (for better or worse). My Charge+ Ti still cuts like a beast, as long as the wire is centered on the cutters. It just is a bit annoying to take the time to line the wire up on the cutters, rather than being able to just push the wire all the way to the back of the pliers blindly. To each their own, but I believe a poor excuse for wire strippers is what Leatherman had intended with the gap. That’s just my guess.
Shocking when you consider that they had to create new tooling/processes in order to make a worse product, when they could have just stuck with the old design.
I have no opinion on whether this is a manufacturing defect, a design flaw, or just user error, but just wanted to say Ted Leo has been my favorite rock artist since 2004 and I was floored to hear Little Dawn in this short. I may or may not agree with your taste in tools, but I'm totally down with your impeccable taste in music 👍
to cut you don't need to use the wire stripper slot... to cut you need to move forward with the object considering that the tools are designed for different uses, and it's obvious that they cannot have the same robustness... in the ARC the blades are replaceable ...I think it always depends a lot on the hand that uses the instrument... Sometimes the introduction of a new model on the market hurts the ego of some, but we must be aware that even if new models come out they are always exceptional instruments
I love the flat bits. And hope they never go away from them. They allow for a much more EDC friendly carry than Universal bits. Carrying that many Universal bits would be way too bulky in the pocket.
I don't know why they didn't use the same head as the P4. If you look at the wire crimp, that's further apart as well. I am waiting for a fix or the next multitool from Leatherman. Plus I have to save up for this.
@inkiron3907 I have a Knifeless Rebar, for jobs where buildings have knife regulations and a Orange G10 Charge. The Charge I got for $120, when it was being discontinued. I was hoping this would be my 1st free system multitool, but I am going to wait. I am not even sure if the frame can handle what my Rebar and Charge are able to do, since people are saying it's more of a lite to medium duty tool. A Surge would be nice, but cops have been enforcing the 3 inch blade laws and taking away some knives under 3 inches. That's why I picked up the Knifeless Rebar but I do carry my Charge at times. The Surge's knife is a little over 3 inches, sadly. 😞 All the shootings going on is making stuff worse in my area. It doesn't help that county police is a quarter mile away from my home, which always pulls over random drivers, even if not speeding. Thanks for your response and the awesome advice. 😀
Why? Its only a benefit, leatherman’s replaceable wire cutters have been tested. They work just as well and can be replaced if you break them. What do you do on a set that doesn’t have replacements?
its a wire stripping notch . the hard wire cutters work fine just dont push it all the ways to the back. works great you can strip wire without closing the pliers. soft wire, hard wire and wire striper. if it looks like a thing, works like a thing. even if you or leathermen dont know what that thing is does not change what it is. any electrician would look at it and say wirestriper notch.
I was looking at other videos people are posting and it seems that all ARCs have that gap. My Arc has it too. I didn't find it to be a big problem since you just need to move wire from the gap. Also that gap can probably be used for stripping wires 😂
I have seen other comments on this Short saying that some folks have no gap! It’s weirdly inconsistent. They made a dedicated wire stripper notch on the awl, so I really don’t think this is intentional
It works like a champ stripping wires! If it's a flaw I like the convenience of the placement on plier without having to pull out the awl, to me its an added bonus, and like you said just move the wire coat hanger up just a hair and cuts like butter In my test, I like the plier head the way they are, it doesn't harm nothing..
Working doing HVAC that error is a very big error when you're cutting flex. Having to make that final cut on the wire. You don't want to have to move it up a little bit when you're sitting in Rafters doing commercial. My super tool 300 does the same thing
It's a flaw of a particular batch of cutters, not the tool itself. As such, it's an issue that can be found with any model with replaceable cutters. My brand new surge came with cutters with the exact same flaw, which is annoying, but not the end of the world since it gave me an excuse to mod some EOD cutters to fit (I have no need for hard wire cutting)
I also hate this. And with the amount of people that agree, it blows my mind that leatherman would continue to make them that way instead of having straight cutters all the way through. Just doesn't make sense to me
Are the cutters interchangeable? Because I do see that as a problem, but the blade steel is so good I really want the thing. It seems like it’s the only good multi tool with a kick ass steel. I’ve carried the surge now for years and I’ve never used the blade because I don’t like the steel they used and I don’t wanna mess up the blade. Haha sorry for the rant
In video it more looks like a user error to me. You are blocking the closing of it placing the other end of the wire in the 2023 arc version. In previous Free P4 version you keep the other end of the wire free and not blocking the closure. This is called "false alarm" IMHO. (wish I had either one of them)
It sure does appear that way. And it would explain why it wouldn’t cut the wire. It’s too big to fit all the way into that little gap. I haven’t seen anyone else have this issue when testing the cutters, or anyone break theirs.
@@DNMEBOYi have seen lot of people saying they have this issue, and are breaking the cutters. I dont know if leatherman has fixed the issue or is it on every tool. I would imagine they make the parts in patches, and then you also can get just bad patch or something
Yeah it’s become clear to me that the redesigned wire cutter is the issue and can be found across all replaceable cutter models. I hadn’t noticed because I get most of my Leatherman tools second hand
Leatherman has a 25 year warrantee...if it's wrong sent them back. But like others have said, it's probably for stripping. Also. They're replacable. So if you want hardened cutters replace them.
Leatherman took decades to build up a good name ..But the last few multi tools they have brought out are sub standard and I for one won't pay for the most expensive multi tool in the world and get rubbish for my money,It's better the buy 20+ off brand or less well known multi tools ..And I can have one for EDC ..In the car , at work , fishing box ,tool box , And still have lots of replacements ... Everyone I talk to now mistrust leatherman and I think it's greed by them by selling rubbish for top money ..
I’m sure some of them will still cut wire here and there, but I agree with your point in the video. Leatherman should’ve done testing and should’ve fixed that gap, instead they’re trying to pocket money from people for a flawed tool? Absolute ridiculous I hope they don’t sell any of the damn things until they start doing things correctly.
The free series was a joke and the arc is half assed play for fast money. Either stick to the wave and surge BEFORE the replaceable cutters or the victorinox swisstool and swisstool x
The problem is, why should you have to change out the cutters on a new tool that costs $230. I love Leatherman, but in the case of the Arc I think that Leatherman in going to loose the blue collar and military business, however the collectors will still purchase
I was looking at the shape of wire cutters and to me it looks like problem with cutters not with pillars. Leatherman probably changed shape of cutters. I wonder if you move wire cutters from P4 to ARC will you still have gap.
All the geniuses saying the needle nose is pinching the coat hanger... Yeah if you have something in the jaw of the cutter, the tip of the pliers physically can't close enough to pinch.
I bought a Free K2 and the blade got extremely dull after 2 days of light use. All I did with it was cut weed eater cord. It does not hold an edge worth a fuck. I’ll never buy a Leatherman again after that. It was a complete waste of $110.
@@inkiron3907 its strange though, because I've had tools that didn't have that gap in the past. It seems as though they've changed the cutters or are in the process of changing them. The reason id say that is due to some having spaces and some not.

I think you just got a lemon pair of wire cutters. Just send it back in and have them fix it. The warranty is amazing.

I think the "gap " is called a wire stripper. Not used for cutting. Only stripping.
Operator error........
Leatherman put the stripper on the awl. This is a wire cutting notch. Commenter error...
Move the wire up a little. It will cut it fine. However there really should not be a grap.

Have you tried swapping the Cutters from the P4 onto the arc? Maybe it's not the flaw of the plier head design, but just the batch of the cutters....

Shocking when you consider that they had to create new tooling/processes in order to make a worse product, when they could have just stuck with the old design.
That's for wire stripping. It's the Leatherman.... "Arc" as in maybe suggesting some added electrical utility.
Fatal flaw for me are the magnets. As a welder, my multi tool would be completely covered in metal shards and dust all the time.
Yup I would hate that 😢
If I need to cut thick wire I’ll use my ironworker pliers, for everyday carry they’re plenty
That's for just wire stripping. I use mine every day for that.

Doesn't it work if one reserves the gap for stripping and simply uses the middle?
So as someone who works with electronics in the military, we strip wires and other things, It has been extremely useful for that.
