www.Leatherman.com provided me with a 'Charge XTi' to do a long term review on. For the past few years, I've carried as my day to day pocket knife a Chris Reeve Sebenza. One great knife! But, I've found that many times (especially anywhere near the plane) that it's nice to have large phillips and slotted screwdriver on you at all times.

pocket knife
What I'm going to do with this review is 1) provide a short 'first glance' at the multi-tool in an audio format. Then, 2) sometime down the road give a few datapoints after using it for awhile and 3) wrap up at an even further time from now with some final thoughts. dr
