The Leatherman Squirt E4 is new for 2007 and appeals to handymen and hobbyists that need to occasionally strip wires. With 5 different wire gauge sizes that can be stripped and a built-in wire cutter, you're covered for most quick jobs that come up when you're tinkering around in your garage or at work. One person that saw the new E4 said he would use this tool when he's working on installing car stereos with his friends on the weekend. The bottle opener allows you to crack open some cold beverages when your puttering is done.
The P4 and S4 appeared around 2001. If you think you will use pliers more than scissors, go for the P4 model. Women will lean towards the S4 since it is equipped with scissors and a nail file and cleaner. The P4 skips the nail file and opts for a single-cut and a cross-cut file instead.
Since features of all three models vary a little, you really have to weigh which features you will use the most and then go for that model. Color may be a factor as well. All Leatherman Squirt models are available: storm gray, glacier blue and inferno red. Additionally, the P4 and S4 are also produced in powder pink.
Regardless of the model Squirt you select. You will like the feel of it in your hand. All models, whether open or closed, have nice rounded lines and make the tool very comfortable to hold. You can also access some of the implements when the multi-tool is in the folded, closed position.
Overall, the Squirt is ergonomic and handy. Tough but tiny. Sometimes you want a quick, convenient fix. That's when the Squirt comes in and blows the competition away. A true winner in Leatherman's line of small keychain size multi-tools. Perfect for men and women alike.
