Leatherman Mut Vs Mut EOD

This is a comparison on the Leatherman Mut Vs Mut EOD. I use this as my every day carry and love it.

[@idiotfigures4941]

I just inherited an EOD from my father in law, he passed away this past week. I'm not a shooter but may start collecting leatherman. I need to order the sight adjustment wrench, it wasn't in the sheath and I don't feel like asking a grieving widow to look for a small tool in a mountain of accessories she could care less about. I will always have this cool tool to remember Ray by. He was a navy veteran and was gone too soon. He always used to say "Stay Frosty!" He had so much cool stuff my mother in law knew how much it meant to me and let me pick from his edc knives, I got a Kershaw launch 1, I also got one of his bug-out bags, that's where the Leatherman was, among other cool gadgets. One of my fondest memories of him is when his NY trooper pals brought over a P90 and let me lighten a couple mags. The stories they would tell, I will miss him like my own father.

good review Mr. Cody...I didn't know about the differences in the wire cutter inserts (my utility Mut has the standard cutters)...it really is a very durable and capable multitool huh?...

[@Phil5150Bower]

Great review many thanks

[@macgyverbryan1377]

I have A ST EOD in my pack. The cutter inserts are 154cm, carbide can crack like on the Gerber's.

[@nhraandnascarfanatic5907]

bought myself one of these about a month ago (being abit of a leatherman collector i spose u could say) and ironically its my most expensive but at the same time the most useless multitool lol. unless u are into your guns etc i would go with something like the signal or super tool 300. Very cool, sturdy and serious looking bit of kit.. but not ideal for everyday use

[@MrLeonidas0001]

And I didnt realize how different the cutter blades were so thanks again!

[@macgyverbryan1377]

The EOD cutters will cut stranded wire well. Standard wire inserts won't fit in the EOD.

[@everythingandapandemic2292]

Have you tested the bolt override tool? Looks like it would be good to clear a jam.

[@patricialunadelpozo6179]

Thanks! nice review

[@nopenope9945]

Great video. Thanks so much but question for you. Can I use the REGULAR wire cutter replaceable blade on the EOD version? So I get they are replaceable but are they interchangeable too? Amazon doesn't have an explanation or even a description of the items in the multitool. How dumb is that?! So your vid is very helpful. If you haven't already you should upload this video to that listing on Amazon.

[@kingpin11111]

Sorry for an off topic question, but what kind od weave have you used for your paracord belt? It looks awesome and I can say it isn't basic cobra or any other weave I know.

[@joedick3541]

Out of the two what do you prefer more? And which one would you say is more practical (everyday) and which one is more compact (more like a tool box multi tool)?

[@MrLeonidas0001]

Great video thanks! I have both models as well. My standard MUT has silver blades with a tan sheath and the EOD model I have has black blades and black sheath.

[@nopenope9945]

Tan looks super cool.

[@MrLeonidas0001]

@@nopenope9945 The EOD in tan looks awesome!

[@BRIANVANDUYN]

How would you compare it to a sog power assist?

[@More-Space-In-Ear]

You didn’t mention you can unscrew the punches and place into the plier head sides....

[@jujungHur-j]

mut eod contains that many screw chips ?

[@mrt1320]

do you have a use for freeing a stuck AR bolt?

[@CROC175]

I own a MUT EOD. As you already know the MUT EOD's wire cutters are regular wire cutters but the MUT Utility has the Regular and Hard wire cutters. Can I install the Regular/Hard wire cutters meant for the MUT Utility on my MUT EOD? Are those parts interchangeable? I'd appreciate any help since you own both the Utility and the EOD.

[@territt16]

Yes

[@carlosgarciarivero]

Thanks for the review. Are the punches interchangable between the MUT and MUT EOD? Thanks

[@niclaswyatt866]

I had the same thought and had a look at some Images of the replacement parts. They seem to be, because at the mounting points both look the same and also have the same outer diameter, but I couldn't try it so this is also just a guess.

[@omarametbay6185]

Great video! Is there any way to replace carbon scrapper and puncher with something more common?

[@TheLazyPuff]

I would recommend you get the Signal instead of the MUT if you don't want the scrapper and puncher.

[@jebueley]

Hey bud, had a question. I recently bought the Leatherman MUT and was wondering if I could replace the 1/8" Firearm Disassembly Punch on the MUT with the EOD's C4 punch. And if so what would the fit look like.

[@americanistradio209]

Justin Burley yes you can. I know this is two years old. But no one answered lol. Yeah they are interchangeable. I changed mine with EOD punch and I changed the cutters on my standard kit with the EOD blades

[@mattevs3738]

This is really helpful as I’ve come here to find out the same.

[@nopenope9945]

For got to ask you: will the set of bits fit in the sheath alongside the knife?

[@condhor]

They slide in the back of the provided sheath, behind the multi tool itself. Or in front if you want but most people put it in the back.

[@jamie2015]

what would be the best one for the regular day using. I had the Leatherman wave multi tool, but my ex lost it when I gave it to her to keep because I was playing with her son. Now I want a new one I will be in the military soon so I want one of these I still don't know but which one should I buy besides this? The Leatherman wave multi tool again? The scissor, screwdriver, knife, saw, bottle opener and wire cutters did it for me besides that I can't find of any extra tools I would use so which one would I buy and where can I buy it the cheapest? I bought it a black Fridays at Dicks or target. I will try to buy these 2 again next year near to Harrisonburg at Virginia. Please give me some advice.

[@MrCodyBlair]

Jamie van Vliet Yeah, the Wave is way more practical. I would stick with the Wave if you are going military. More practicality rather to only a a few speciality tools. Hope that helps.

[@jamie2015]

MrCodyBlair Dam. Actually I was hoping you was going to tell me it wasn't so big of a deal losing my wave because a specific other one was more useful anyway, I don't like to buy the exact same because my stupid ex lost mine and it feels just bad to buy the exact same again because someone lost it. Or do you know another one with screwdriver, scissor, saw, knife, bottle opener, wire cutters, ruler, wood/metal file and diamond - coated file? Also which MUT do you recommend for gun fanatics?

[@pavelgrygoryev1140]

My advice to you - buy Leatherman MUT. My opinion - it is more practical for everyday use, than EOD. I also use Leatherman Style CS, and I like it's scissors very much. Also, Style fits well into a side pocket of MUT case. So, I keep 2 multitools in one case. And I have very good pliers, cutters and scissors in a compact and easy to carry compartment. Sorry for late comment, maybe, it is not actual already, but I have seen this video and read your comment only today.

[@camaro3148]

Is there somewhere I can buy the MUT a little bit cheaper? And in your opinion what would be another good multi tool.

[@MrCodyBlair]

Yeah, I got it for a bit cheaper after googling it on some random site. I really like SOG Power Assist, just don't have money to try it out.

[@saurabhsingh-ge6ec]

Why does it take so much effort in deploying the pliers? on the MUT ?? I Saw it took you alot of effort to open and close the thing. I own a LM Surge by the way and never have such stuck issues?

[@MrCodyBlair]

Yeah, one of them was really brand new. It takes quite a while to break these in.

[@jagersilva2169]

I wish it had a file instead or be able to put one in interchange it with like the carbon scraper or saw

[@MrCodyBlair]

Hector Silva or if the saw side was also a file.

[@mr.nobody68]

On any of the cloth Leatherman sheaths, I very strongly recommend supergluing the damn belt strap button in place. They like to randomly come undone. I've emailed them, I warranty claimed one, and I've replaced several. They're all great sheaths but the damn button they use on the belt strap sucks. I superglue all of mine. I have my MUT EOD hooked on my range bag using the MOLLE webbing and I superglued that hoe. If you superglue it with MOLLE, leave one MOLLE loop unwoven so you will have the slack to cut away a worn sheath. Over time, the tool wears a hole in the cloth on the sheath and you have to replace it unless you want the tool to fall out.

[@itrstt66]

Which material is the carbon scraper made off?

[@MrCodyBlair]

It's made of brass. It's a softer metal that barrels of guns are made of. That way when you are cleaning it doesn't mar the barrel of the gun.

[@midamericamunitions5599]

[@SuperTango44]

Can you change the EOD punch for the normal punch?

[@MrCodyBlair]

Joe Tango well the molding is a bit different that it fits into so not really.

[@bskarpa]

Could the C4 punch be used as a glass break you think?

[@MrCodyBlair]

Yes I would say it would do the job for it has a nice point on it. Just have to be careful as you are breaking glass.

[@americanistradio209]

Bobby S yeah you could. I have a regular MUT and ordered the EOD replacement parts kit, so now o have the EOD cutting blades and the C4 punch instead of the pin punch bit I carry the pin punch in my bag

[@KLartrandM]

[@knifeaddict1014]

I hate that my mut didn’t come with a tool to tighten the blades!

[@454bard]

so you use the the regular "mut" everyday ?

[@MrCodyBlair]

I wouldn't say I use it every day, but I carry it with me every day. I have had a few times where it saved the day. It has paid for itself many times over.

Thank you Zak!

[@poohjensen]

I see what you did there. ha ha

[@TheKimjoh560]

Thanks for the video! The cutters are actually 154cm, not carbide. Gerber uses carbide and its terrible. It will never go dull but it will shatter if you cut something hard. These tool steel cutters are far supperior.

[@Supremacy962]

Not trying to be a jerk, but 154cm is stainless steel. Tool steel (such as A2 and D2) is not a stainless steel Nevertheless, 154cm is a great steel.

[@TheKimjoh560]

@@Supremacy962 I stand corrected. Altough, I must say 154cm is definatley borderline in this regard. Looking at the composition of many AISI tool steels makes it very obvious its mostly down to intended purpose rather than composition. The range of characteristics and composition between steels classified as "tool steels" is huge.
