Leatherman Rebar® 17-Tool Multitool
Description
Leatherman Rebar® 17-Tool Multitool
The Leatherman Rebar® is a robust full-size multitool that combines 17 practical implements in a strong, traditional Leatherman design. Inspired by the original Leatherman tool introduced in 1983, the Rebar is built for demanding work, regular maintenance, workshop tasks, outdoor use and everyday repairs.
Its tool selection includes needlenose and regular pliers, premium replaceable wire cutters, two 420HC knife blades, a saw, awl, file, openers and three dedicated screwdrivers. Every implement except the plier head locks securely into place, providing stability and confidence during cutting, sawing, filing and fastening work.
The shaped handles remain comfortable during prolonged use and provide a secure hold when wearing work gloves. With a closed length of 10.16 cm and a weight of approximately 190 g, the Rebar offers substantial capability while remaining compact enough for a work bag, vehicle kit, backpack or belt sheath.
Important information regarding the sheath: Package contents may vary depending on the production batch. Earlier versions of the Leatherman Rebar were supplied with a nylon sheath, while newer production versions are supplied without one. The product article number has not changed between these versions. While older stock remains available, a nylon sheath may therefore be included. Once this stock is exhausted, a compatible sheath must be purchased separately.

Built for Demanding Work
The Rebar is designed for users who need a dependable multitool for practical work rather than unnecessary complexity. Its strong plier head, replaceable cutters and dedicated screwdrivers make it especially useful for maintenance, construction, workshop jobs and field repairs.
The compact frame carries a broad range of implements while retaining the familiar Leatherman handle shape that has proven itself over decades of professional and personal use.
Locking Implements
Every implement except the plier head locks into place when fully opened. This improves stability and reduces the risk of a tool folding unexpectedly while cutting, filing, sawing, puncturing or tightening fasteners.
Each tool should be opened fully until the lock engages before pressure is applied.
Replaceable Wire Cutters
The Rebar includes premium replaceable wire cutters and premium replaceable hard-wire cutters. When the inserts become worn or damaged, they can be replaced without changing the complete multitool.
This serviceable design is especially valuable for users who regularly work with wire, fencing, cables or mechanical repairs.
Plain and Serrated 420HC Blades
The multitool includes two separate 420HC stainless-steel blades. The plain-edge blade is suitable for accurate slicing and general cutting, while the serrated blade works effectively on rope, straps, webbing and other fibrous materials.
Both blades lock into position when opened for more controlled use.
Awl with Thread Loop
The awl is useful for puncturing leather, canvas, plastic and other suitable materials. Its integrated thread loop can assist with basic repairs to heavy fabrics and outdoor equipment.

- Workshop and jobsite tasks
- Home repairs and DIY projects
