Leatherman Pulse

Few years after introduction of PST II Leatherman made yet another modification of original PST. New model, Pulse, had few redesigned features. Most important new feature was the introduction of locking blades, but it also had slimmer scissors, somewhat beefer pliers and slightly different diamond file.

To compare these differences, some of photos below picture Pulse side by side with PST.

It was quite a sleek and functional design, but it also added some bulk to the tool when compared to PST II - that's why this "PST III" never replaced it's predecessor in my pocket. It's still a nice tool, though - and a looker too.
