Depending on the type of photography you’re involved in, a multi-tool may be one of the invaluable items found inside your camera bag. If so, Leatherman has a new product for you called the Tread. Upon first glance, the product may look like a sleek but rather ordinary metal bracelet, but look a little closer and you’ll see that it’s actually a fancy new multi-tool that puts 25 separate tools around your wrist.
The bracelet comes in the form of separate stainless steel links that can be joined together in any order you choose. Each of the pieces has two to three functional tools built in.
None of these tools is a knife so you can easily pass through airport security checks as well without causing a scene.
The Tread bracelet began taking shape. Each complex link was metal injection molded for strength and intensity. The bracelet was crafted to be fully customizable with slotted fasteners, so the user could rearrange links, add new ones, or adjust for wrist size to ¼”. Even the clasp is functional with a bottle opener and #2 square drive. Other link tools include a cutting hook, hex drives, screwdrivers, box wrenches, and a carbide glass breaker.
There will also be a timepiece component that turns the bracelet into a watch. Designed by Leatherman and manufactured in Switzerland, the watch will feature a quartz movement and scratch-resistant sapphire crystal glass:
Leatherman will be releasing the basic version of their product in Summer, 2015 in Northern Hemisphere in black and silver color while a version that will sport a Swiss waterproof watch in fall. There isn’t any official statement about the price tag of this device, however, the company has estimated the price to be somewhere along 150-200 dollars.
