The Leatherman Tread QM1 Multitool Watch

Leatherman introduced the first ever multi-tool that can actually be worn as a watch. I’m usually pretty skeptical of these types of gimmicky items, but this thing was actually pretty cool, and felt like it could take a beating.

It’s made with corrosion resistant 17-4 stainless steel links, with each link having two to three functional tools. The tools include things like a cutting hook, hex drives, screwdrivers, box wrenches, and a carbide glass breaker. It’s expected out in September, with a bracelet only version hitting the marketplace in May.

I love shooting my 10/22, so I can’t wait to get my hands on one of the new Ruger 22 Charger Takedowns. At only 19.25 inches long, this little thing looks like it’s going to provide hours of fun out on the range – especially now that .22lr ammo is starting to find its way back on to the shelves..
