Timothy S. Leatherman
Timothy S. Leatherman is the founder, chairman and chief executive of Leatherman Tool Group, Inc.. Leatherman graduated from Oregon State University in 1970 with a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Timothy S. Leatherman : Oregon Stater Academy of Distinguished Engineers : College of Engineering - Oregon State University )〕 According to an article in ''The Oregonian'', "Leatherman came up with the idea of a 'Boy Scout knife with pliers' during a 1975 driving tour of Europe with his wife, when he was unable to use his pocket knife to fix his repeatedly malfunctioning car."〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Leatherman Tools, Leatherman Knives, Leatherman Pocket Pliers, Leatherman Products - ShopLeatherman.com )〕 It took him several months afterwards to refine his idea, and he was granted a patent on the first Leatherman tool in 1980.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Leatherman - Overview - Free Online Library )〕 Leatherman spent the next few years attempting to market his product to large companies with technical staff, such as AT&T, but this was largely unsuccessful. The tool eventually gained popularity through mail order catalogues.〔
