Leatherman 931009 Bit Driver Extension
At first glance, the first-party Leatherman bit driver extender seems more of a convenience than a necessity. However, modern Leatherman multi-tools have switched from the old multi-tool screwdriver style–several, dedicated screwdrivers–to a single large bit driver compatible with any of Leatherman’s forty-plus proprietary double-ended bits. While the bit driver affords vast expandability for a Leatherman multi-tool, it does sacrifice the reach that a dedicated screwdriver would otherwise lend. With this bit driver extender, not only do you extend the reach of your driver, thus enabling you to reach recessed screws otherwise impossible to engage, but it also grants you the ability to use any standard 1/4″-drive hex bit. The bit driver extender can also be used with any Leatherman tool or knife that features a large bit driver (Charge models, Surge, Wave, e306x/e307x, k502x/k503x, h502/h503). Not only that, but the removable bit drivers available for various other Leatherman tools (Juice series, Core, Blast, Fuse, Kick (Leatherman 830045 Removable Bit Driver for Blast/Fuse/Kick), and even all three pruners models) accept the bit driver extender. Actually, any 1/4″-drive hex bit extension would accept this bit driver extender. The bit driver extender conveniently fits in one of the elastic side pockets featured on some Leatherman sheaths.
Quality is excellent as usual. Only reason I gave it a 4 instead of 5 is that it seems to pull out of my Wave a little too easily. I’d like to see it modified so that it locks or snaps into place more securely.
If you have a leatherman (one of the more modern ones with the interchangeable drivers bits) then you need this extension bar. It enables you to get at those awkwardly placed screws and bolts. Best of all this and the bit set all fit in my leather surge sheath.
Leatherman – don’t leave home without it.
I work in the electronics department at a major warehouse. I have to put the base on televisions, put T.V. stands, and home theater systems together too. The bit driver extention is very useful. I don’t have to look for screwdrivers because I can keep this in the sheath with my leatherman and bits. It allows for excellent torque. Very handy on screws that are set deep. I love it.
Combine this with the Skeletool and you can leave the pliers closed to use the screwdriver. This can hold Leatherman and standard 1/4″ hex bits which leaves you open to any bit on the market. The only reason I give this a 4 star instead of 5 is that it seems a bit loose in the Skeletool. It just does not click in like the normal bits. Other than that this is a great tool and fits perfectly in the pouch that the Leatherman 42 bits comes with giving you versatility to tackle nearly any situation.
