The Leatherman Charge Plus is an upgraded version of the Charge. It combines the best features of the previous AL and ALX models and now comes with replaceable wire cutters.

It's also supplied with a 9 - piece bit - kit, 7 in the bit storage case and 2 in the bit drivers. Backed by Leatherman's 25 - year warranty. Available accessories include a Lanyard Ring & Pocket Clip set, a 42 - piece Bit Kit, and a Bit Driver Extender. Key features include all locking blades and tools for extra safety, a lanyard ring for secure attachment, a replaceable pocket clip for easy carrying, a quick - release lanyard ring, outside - accessible knife and scissors for convenience, one - hand operable tools, stainless - steel construction for durability, 6061 - T6 hard - anodised aluminium handle scales that are both durable and lightweight, and a comprehensive bit kit. The toolset includes needlenose pliers, regular pliers, replaceable wire cutters, a crimper, a wire stripper, knives, a cutting hook, a saw, spring - action scissors, a ruler, can and bottle openers, files, and bit drivers. The included bits cover a wide range of sizes and types. It weighs 235g, has a 7.37cm blade length, and a 10cm closed length.
Using the Leatherman Charge Plus is a breeze. To access the knife or scissors, you can do it even when the tool is folded. Just use one hand to open any of the tools, so you can keep the other hand free for other tasks. When using near water or on scaffolding, attach the tool to a lanyard using the lanyard ring. For carrying, you can use the replaceable pocket clip to attach it to your pocket or belt loop. As for maintenance, after each use, wipe the tool clean with a dry cloth to prevent rust. The stainless - steel parts are durable, but if you notice any dullness on the blades, you can sharpen them with a suitable sharpener. Keep the bit kit in a dry place to maintain its performance. Remember, this tool is covered by a 25 - year warranty, so if you have any issues, reach out to Leatherman for support.
