Year 2023

ARC® is the very first multi-tool ever made from premium MagnaCut steel. The blade is crafted from CPM MagnaCut steel, which maintains a sharp edge and excels in corrosion resistance, durability, and ease of sharpening. The result is a knife that can handle everyday tasks and challenging environments.

The DLC coating on the blade adds an extra layer for improved corrosion resistance. ARC® also features the highly requested bit driver, and thanks to FREE technology, each tool opens smoothly and can be used with a single hand. With 20 tools, a removable pocket clip, a four-pocket nylon sheath, and eight double-ended bits, ARC® paves the way for present and future multi-tools.

EASE OF USE
Utilizing our advanced FREE® technology, ARC® uses magnets to make tools open easily with one hand (and without fingernails), move smoothly, and lock in place with a click.

EXCELLENT MATERIALS
ARC®, the pinnacle of multi-function tools, is made from MagnaCut® steel, a groundbreaking innovation in the industry that combines the best edge retention with maximum blade toughness and incredible corrosion resistance. The knife and handles are coated with DLC for increased durability and anti-corrosion effect.

CUTTING-EDGE FEATURES
ARC® incorporates our most popular and sought-after features, including a large and small bit driver, a diamond-coated file, and high-quality materials, including a MagnaCut blade and DLC coating.
