Convenience Features and Price
Pocket Clip: A spring clip is screwed
to the exterior, allowing the tool to be
clipped to a pocket or belt edge. You can
move the clip to the opposite handle if
preferred.
"Glow Strip": A flat, milky-white plastic
strip is mounted on one handle. I had to
consult the manual to figure out its pur-
pose: it's a fluorescent strip that glows in
the dark, helping you locate the tool. New
to me!
Sheath: The tool comes with a nylon
sheath, similar to Leatherman's latest
production models.
Packaging: Everything ships in a sturdy,
dark-green cardboard box with foam in-
serts.
The whole package is available for ap-
proximately $95 (379 PLN).
Badger is gaining traction in the Pol-
ish market, distributed interestingly by
the Leatherman distributor. This move
makes sense, allowing Militaria.pl to cov-
er a much wider price range, from roughly
$25 to $325 multi-tools. The Badgers are
well-made; while they feel heavier and
more "clunky" compared to a Leather-
man (and you can tell they are cheaper),
mechanically they are solid.
The manufacturer and distributor back
the quality with a generous 10-year war-
ranty, which is excellent for this price
point.
P.S. When you buy a Badger, you can also
opt for custom engraving to personalize
your tool
