The Leatherman ARC is a premium 20-tool multi-tool built around Leatherman's FREE magnetic locking system, so every tool opens one-handed from the outside and snaps back into place. Its main blade uses CPM MagnaCut steel with a DLC coating, a steel chosen for edge retention, toughness and corrosion resistance together. That puts it above the Wave+ and Charge+ on blade steel and one-hand access, at the cost of more weight and a higher outlay. It suits people who use a multi-tool daily and want the best blade and lock system Leatherman makes.

Owners rate the ARC highly and treat it as a top-tier Leatherman. They praise the one-hand opening, the MagnaCut blade and the solid lock-up, and most complaints are about weight and cost rather than function.
The Leatherman ARC is a pliers-style multi-tool with 20 built-in tools. Each tool opens with one hand and snaps back into place after use with Leatherman FREE technology. A magnetic locking system keeps friction low, and haptic feedback signals when a tool is locked back in place.
The knife blade is CPM MagnaCut steel with a DLC coating. The steel has strong edge retention, strength and toughness, and it is easy to sharpen. The coating makes the blade nearly impervious to corrosion.
Every tool can be reached from the outside of the handles while the pliers are closed, so you can use any of them one-handed straight from the sheath. To open a tool, push its end with your thumb. A cam lock operates with one hand and keeps tools from closing unexpectedly. The handle can be engraved with up to 6 characters.
