Leatherman pruners?

I was working out in my backyard this weekend when it occurred to me that the leatherman on my belt would work a lot better for me when I'm doing that if it was a pruner instead of a pliers. But I've never known anyone to own any of the leatherman pruners.

Does anyone here have any experience with them? There's three models. I'm leaning towards the Vista since it seems to have the right combination of stuff for the kind of yard work that I need to do. On the other hand, the 420HC steel doesn't exactly fill me with a lot of optimism. Kind of soft, isn't it?

Any thoughts or suggestions? Does anyone other than Leatherman make a product that you like better?
 
My wife got me the Leatherman "Hybrid" model pruner last year for my birthday. I had been using an inexpensive Gerber pruners I got a CountyComm a few years ago. During the summer I carry it wih me whenever mowing or doing any yardwork outside and I'm prety impressed with it. Works great and has stood up to fairly heavy use.
 
I've been eyeing this up from quite some time as I find myself using my pruners all the time in the yard. I like the idea of not having to carry another multi-tool too.
 
Yes, I think I should get serious about picking a pair of these up. They'd be very useful for my weekend lawn chore activities.
