I think this is one of the most underrated multi-tools that provides unique features in addition to everything else. I know one person who uses crunch (slightly modified) and a small condor shovel (with a saw on the blade) for all bushcraft purposes.
Great to hear someone describe the crunch with the same kind of admiration I have for it. One's been on my belt for most of a decade now and I continue to think it's the most versatile object I own besides a smartphone
I always thought the crunch was more of a gimmick than a real functioning tool. After watching your video and some others by tx tool crib I decided to buy one a while ago and I just love it. The size is just perfect. The way you deploy it is really eazy. Love what you did with that file and saw. The little screwdriver that comes with the bitset actually fits right inside that groove in the plier head. Good idea to use the file and saw like that!
Love the Crunch. One of my favorites. You can also pop the tool open while using as a driver and make it like a pistol grip for a ton more torque. I have a crunch video on my small little channel that shows it in action. Especially nice for socket adapter which I also did. Nice trick on the saw/file notch to limit the side to side movement. 👍
@@endofdayzfitnessu.k2126 - If you remove the screw at the bottom, all of the way (the jaw adjustment screw) it unveils a 1/4” hex socket. You can then use a 1/4” hex to socket adapter or a hex extension, etcetera.
I just ran across your channel, (was suggested during a lm search) and love it. I've had my crunch for over 20 years,, it's been around the world, and has never let me down. It's still holding up strong, maybe just a little duller, lol. Anyway, I will check out your other vids. Keep up the great work!
I agree the serrated blade is most valued and used by me~I always use it for package opening and cutting all cordage~Besides working best it saves the edge of the main blade~
If the original had such loop, Leatherman could then remove the redundant lanyard ring from inside. Then, instead of the middle size flat driver and phillips they could have put in a bit adapter from wave. With so much space saved, this tool could actualy get a real sccissors, an awl or plain edge blade. I think this would bring the crunch closer to perfection.
Excellent video. Thanks. I guess the main reason why serrated blades are getting 'trash-talked' is that it is much harder and labour intensive to resharpen a serrated blade.
Plus one for the style ps and I like what you did with the saw and file. My preference is the manager over the mini champ. I think the mini champ has redundant tools whereas the manager is smaller, can do pretty much everything the mini champ can and also has a pen. The mini champ has an orange peeler/box opener and an extra blade, you can use the single blade on the manager to do most of what you would do with those. The mini champ has a medical scoop, who needs that? You have the blade or the file if you want some sort of scoop tool. The mini champ also has separate file and ruler/flathead, the manager loses the ruler but combines the file and flathead. The pen means you lose either the tweezers or the toothpick, but you choose. I can see the champ could be right for some but for me the manager is such a massively feature packed tool for its size. I’d go so far as to say it’s my favourite out of all my tools as it goes everywhere with me and I just forget about it until I need it. Highly recommended.
Wow, it sounds like me talking to me. I agree 100 on what your saying about the manager. The manager and Style PS would be my top Multitool recommendations.
This is the only tool I carry on my motorcycle. The locking pliers alone are worth it. A cigar tube carries a bit extender with ¼" adapter, 10mm socket, and a few driver bits. Brilliant.
Hi Jose from Puerto Rico. I found your channel by chance and really enjoyed your review. I subscribed. I've had my Crunch for many years; in fact I can't remember if I got it from Leatherman or some retailer. The bottom line is that it has worked without a hiccup all these years. That locking mechanism is worth the price alone. It's not a tool I use everyday, but It's always near by in my glove compartment. I have a Free P4 and will eventually get the Surge as a heavy duty tool. The Crunch has some specks of rust on it, but not much. I think that can be cleaned up without problems. Wonderful review man!
For surface rust, I use a paste made with Barkeeper's Friend cleaner and water, and rub either with a toothbrush or none-marring/none-scratching 3M pads; rinse well and lube with mineral oil.
Great review, excited to get mine. I was trying to confirm if it would work with the Leatherman bits, so thank you. Could you comment or include in the description the other tools in your kit?
Enjoyed this video, thanks. Another hack is to pull tension screw back a small amount, insert either the Leatherman Bit Extender or the Ratcheting Bit Extender it on the small slot on side. And tighten the screw to hold it secure. You can now have a t-handle style screw driver.
thanks for this video! It’s also no hardship or burden to carry a couple of leather awl bits for dealing with blowouts that sometimes happen when you’re up in the woods. It’s not a small thing to be able to repair a damaged boot, to keep feet warm, dry and safe when home is nowhere near, and won’t be for some time. Those could be pinched right in that groove in the vice grip jaws.
I've been wanting to get one of these for too long. I saw a scalple replacement for the bottle opener. My Kershaw caribiner knife bottle opener fell off but I can still open bottles by prying open five sides of a bottle cap with the sheep shank blade tip (same tip as the crunch).
Love mine, but I wish the Apex bit driver was easier to access and had some sort of detent to retain the bits. I never wanted a multi-tool until I learned about the Crunch. I use mine almost daily at work.
I was impressed with this TH-cam back in 2019. In January 2020, I bought the Crunch after receiving an unexpected Xmas gift of $100 dollars. Then Covid 19 hit me. After rummaging in my cool leatherman drawer half a year ago, wow found this "Great Tool" again! Then I remembered this YT vid! Thank you for the show and tell. I have a question bout the place where you can put the standard bits? Suggestions of what types? Thanks again maybe late but always a plus, and a surprise, I hope.
i have a suggestion, instead of carrying around that small 4mm bit driver, you can instead get an adapter that steps down a 1/4 hex bit to a 4mm hex bit... then you can reduce the weight of your whole edc and also you've gotta look into getting a 4 inch knipex to replace your current adjustable wrench, much smaller and way stronger
I like the leatherman crunch, but I think they could make it better. I remember the problem, could have been a defect, that i had with my unit, was the locking mechanism seemed to come loose & fail on me, at inappropriate times, like when in use.. obviously its a multi-tool.. I didn't really feel like I was pushing it way beyond its intended purpose, just general use. Anyways, that aside good video. Interesting idea.
I don't even try to baby these tools. I litterly beat the shit out of every one of them to get what I need done. I work on a pipeline crew. Most of the time tool trucks are blocks away so it is what it is. I have broken charge tti cutters on steel core wire. Broke the needle nose on a couple pairs usually twisting motion does it in. Always finished the job though no matter how mangled.
Can you please do a video of optimizing the tools in the handle based on which ones fit from other leathermans. I love my crunch but I think they are overhyped due to the subpar tools in the handle.
@@maxlvledc you are so helpful dude. I love your videos so much. Such great content. I know that a lot of people in the edc community really love your advice

Maxlvledc What doesn’t the Union do well enough from the demonstration videos? Since it’s still being crowdfunded I am just wary of the locking mechanisms and wondering whether they will be strong enough.
@@mikegillihan4428 Thanks can you be more detailed? Is there any room for improvement? How are the locking mechanisms? Can it jam or malfunction? Are the screws holding it in place long and sturdy? I want one but am hesitant to drop $104 on a product from a new company that I won't see in months that runs into the danger of possibly being unreliable due to the complicated design or fragile due to all the parts.
Different strokes for different folks, huh? I personally hate scissors on any kind of multitool or pocket knife with a passion. I would even pay extra to not have them. :)
My Crunch fell apart so I'm no as high on this tool as others. I came here hoping to find out how to repair it when the pin which goes through the arms and the round spacer in between the arms comes loose and falls out. Once that happens the entire tool becomes useless. Haven't used the tool for about 20 years due to this and was hoping to learn how I could resurrect the tool.
I absolutely hate the Crunch. Except for the nice compact folded up size it is awkward in every sense from opening the damned thing up to getting the vise-grip plier head operational to the almost useless set of inside the handle tool kit to having to unscrew the bolt (and then maybe lose) to start to use the driver. I have several Leatherman multi tools and the Crunch is by far the worst.
I am glad I found your channel. You have great ideas but I am also confused on the serrated blade thing. Maybe in an upcoming video point out some instances where a serrated blade would be preferable to a plain edge other than all the obvious ones we all know such as strap and rope. As a utility blade I don't find anything useful about a serrated blade and would love to hear your take. I am not at all knocking your opinion I just can't think of anything myself. I remember years ago using the serrated blade on my Gerber MT500 to saw through the end of a radiator hose as I was broke down in the middle of no where. I was really glad I had a serrated blade that day but that has been the only time. LOL
@@NewZonaRides for tasks such as opening packages, cutting ties, scoring drywall, etc. Its going to be as good or better..than a straight variety at this length. I wish it was much shallower serrations...similar to a victorinox...but cant have everything. Given my choice the Crunch would not have any blade at all.
I think this is one of the most underrated multi-tools that provides unique features in addition to everything else.

I legitimately would never have thought about the saw/file use. That alone is worth the watch
The Crunch is a tank, awesome accessories. One more mod, use a eye bolt tension screw to add a carry loop. Retain the original bolt though.

Another use of the tension bolt, a light hammer. The bolt will need to be in all the way.

Love these videos. Where did you get the pocket clip that you used for the ratchet?
The only thing I'd ask to chang is add the ability to change out the cutters
Crunch + Alox classic victorinox necklace + knife of choice is all you need w/o bulk/fluff/fantastical weight.
Yep, basically
You can clamp down ơn the blades and files ơn it's edge using the pin vise of the crunch. You don't have to modify your blades to do this.
I tried this but I feel they are far more secure with the notch..but yes you are correct.
I wish that the Leatherman Crunch had the same smaller precision scissors as the Leatherman kick, fuse and blast instead of the file!!!
