Hi everyone,

Last week I replaced my Leatherman Charge Titanium and bought a Leatherman Arc! I’m absolutely loving it so far, but I noticed something when looking at the date stamps inside the handles. The stamps say 09 24, meaning it was manufactured about 1.5 years ago. Since Leatherman offers a 25-year warranty, I was wondering: does the warranty period start from the manufacturing date or the date of purchase? In other words, do I "lose" those first 1.5 years, or am I still covered for a full 25 years starting from last week? I know Leatherman’s service is top-notch, but I want to be sure. Should I try to exchange it for a more recent production batch, or does it not matter at all?

Thanks for the help! 🛠️
